As a new dad (5 month old daughter) I haven’t been out and about much recently. Added to that I have had a ‘frozen shoulder’ for the last 6 months. Understandably I haven’t done any flying for about a year and I haven’t flown with Andre for a couple of years, so it was great […]
Yap. I am not kidding. Two training sessions ago Herman had his PPG epiphany and from then on he is unstoppable. Last night he simply flew his ass offf. I have never ever seen someone do more then 15 flights in one session. Herman did 20 – then I stopped counting. Herman flying with the […]

I have noticed that in the last couple years that I don’t fly as much as I used to. After flying Walkerjet paramotors for years with extremely low hang points it was quite difficult for me to stay up in the air for extended periods of time on high hook up. J bars and a […]
Ticks and Lyme Disease We fly from various fields in Niagara. All ticks so far I have seen in our flying locations are dog ticks which do not carry lyme disease. But one can not just assume. Be prepared. Read below. Ticks are tiny bugs the size of a sesame seed. They do not fly. […]
I got together with Herman tonight – there was hardly any wind at the field but Herman finally have his “break through” and proceeded to do five flights – all forward inflations – all done really well. I also brought to the field a new paramotor that Graham has purchased. I fuelled it up tried […]
