FlyGuy1963 Posted August 7, 2021 Share Posted August 7, 2021 I have been interested in paramotors for many years and I am ready to take this on. I would like some safety and other advice for beginners. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alan_k Posted August 7, 2021 Share Posted August 7, 2021 Get proper training. Don't buy any kit until you are at least part way through your training and you know this sport is for you. You should have an idea of what sort of flying you want to do by then, this can influence your future purchases. Don't rush things. If you have any doubt about a flight, don't fly.
