pauldack Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 Afternoon to you all. I started a paragliding course in 2010 but work commitments meant I never finished the course. I’ve been thinking of starting again but paragliding’s high dependency on exact wind conditions is putting me off. Plus repeatedly hauling myself up the side of a steep hill was killing me ). So I’ve been looking at paromotoring, or PPG as it’s commonly called and it’s doesn’t seem so dependent on wind conditions as PG. I was going to sign back up with my old instructor but unfortunately he doesn’t provide training kit and I really don’t have a spare £5k+ right now . Although I’m based in SE Wales and Membury services is 70 miles away, it is mostly motorway so should take a little over 1hour drive time. Anyway, I’ll be giving Simon a ring over the weekend so maybe I’ll see some of you at Membury at some point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alan_k Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 Good decision there Paul, once you've tasted the freedom of flying on a windless day you'll love it. Good luck with the training, Alan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
