  1. Hi Russa, A tip for you, don't ever step through the lines, clip your brakes back on and get your mate to pass the lines back over your head or do this yourself, stepping through the lines is what gets them in a tangled mess Welcome to the sport!
  2. Bloody Fog and Bloody Snow up here! Bloody southerners

    Did you wire it correctly?
  4. He'd make a great pizza delivery driver!
  5. Can anybody spot what is wrong in this picture? http://gallery.maycontainnuts.com/gallery--first-paramotor-flight-of-2008--56.html
  6. Hi Pete, Thanks for putting those videos on, there great! The only way to get pictures on MayContainnuts.com's gallery is to upload them when you've signed in. There isn't a way to upload or put a link to the pics on piccaso.
  7. Hi Pete, Thanks very much Any chance you could sign up and put them on for me, all the vidoes seem to be going on with my user name attached. I'd be grateful, cheers http://www.MayContainNuts.com
  8. Hi Terry, Which list do you mean? MayContainnuts.com? I want one! not sure where i'd put the shopping though? Iv'e now put this on www.MayContainNuts.com Speaking of which, does anyone have any videos they'd like to upload to MayContainNuts.com? we could do with somemore Paramotorists/Paraglider pilots on there Cheers
  9. The picture of (i take it to be Paul Bailey) a Paramotorist flying over/past a radio/tv mast on the Bailey Aviation eBay shop posted above, is this legal? i thought you had to be 1500 feet above the tallest structure, or is that just built up populated areas?
  10. Simon W, By the way Simon, the Skyline CUSHY Gloves that came with the DVD are great and a perfect fit! Thanks.
  11. Ya, excellent DVD, some great footage and to think some of those guys get paid to do that! Haven't done the Para-Skiing or BASE jumping yet, they're on my to do list though, well, not too sure about BASE, when i think about it it makes me nervous, on most jumps there's no second chance!
  12. That's true, i think using a manual is cheating!
  13. Bought the [play gravity] DVD from the offer of the week, great! Couldn't wait 'till it arrived, great! It finally arrived, woohoo! Sat and watched the whole thing in Deutsch thinking i can't speak bloody German! That's Crap! And reading the subtitles which where also in German thinking i can't read German! That's really crap! Then realised it was in English too! (my excuse? i was just too eager to get it on and play it)
  14. Does anyone know how much the full contact helmet is? http://www.flystyle.cz/en_prod_fullcont.html
  15. 33!? Do you have an anchor aboard just incase it gets too windy! Mines 30K dry "I must have the 2nd heaviest Paramotor on the planet!"
  16. And i've just figured out who the bloke is at the begining, it's Doyle or is it Bodie......
  17. Anybody seen this? http://video.maycontainnuts.com/video--paramotor-discovery-video-skyschool-paramotoring-courses--266.html
  18. And the 1000th has to clean 'em!
  19. Well i don't think you can really practice ground handling without some sort of harness, i have kited my wing without a harness but this is just to get the wing in the air to check there's no tangled lines etc. before i put it away (that's if it's ended up in a big heap) without a harness you can't practice forward and reverse launches properly which is why i posted this poll to see if it's worth buying a practice harness, i must have the heaviest Paramotor on the planet!
  20. Hi all, I thought i'd do a poll. I was just thinking about buying a ground handling harness to use to practise my launches instead of doing them with my motor, i was wondering how many people use one, how many people practise using there motor and how many don't practise at all. Thanks.
  21. OUCH! Didn't you see the cliff heading towards you or did you have ya eyes shut sorry lol
  22. When Skydiving i'm supposed to check my canopy every time it deploys but i don't or i forget after 50, 100, 200 jumps you get the feel of the canopy and i can tell whether it's opened correctly or not and whether i have end cell closure or not, i would have thought it was the same with Paramotoring or Paragliding but not as obvious?
  23. Oh right, i didn't know that. Ya learn something new every day! well you do on here anyway!!
  24. Ya no worries! is that with or without a parachute? Speaking of which, i once thought about jumping out of the aircraft with my Paraglider, that was about 4 years ago, since then i have come across a discussion somewhere of people thinking of ways to deploy a Paraglider while exiting an aircraft. Interesting thought!
