Just had an idea form your reply.... what say i buy a cheap older wing use it for ground handling and use it also for winch tows? there are a fer clubs near me that do this.. would i only need a paraglider wing then?. this way at least i will know if i like it, and want to commit to buy the whole lot. thanks garyfreefly.

Hi outcast, will this wing be as safe as the gofly?, im a bit safety conscious., its a long way up there. thanks

Hi, I have just joined the forum to get help with my future hobby of paramotoring and hopfully get a head start with your knowledge. I have been out for 2 hrs with a guy who has a lot of experiance with paramotoring, however he is very busy most of the time and not available when i could get some more experiance in. i know there are lots of clubs about who charge close to £1000 for training. I have been flying power kites for 4 years kite buggying, so have an awarness of the power and dangers of wings and wind. My plan was to buy a wing (paramania gofly) and a trainer harness do as much ground training as i can this year watching vids and things and then have a few lessons with the motor at a club/training centre...saving me money on the ground handling training. do you think this is a safe way to go on? any other ideas? thanks
