stephenc77 Posted June 6, 2015 Share Posted June 6, 2015 Hi Guys so the paramotor itch has finally got me after many years or YouTube clips think I must have seen every one some funny some not so!! As far as I can make out the 2 nearest clubs to me are Footflight paramotor (Colchester way) and ufly4fun paramotor club (Norfolk-ish) does any one have any first hand experience with guys. I am the newest of newbies with no experience paramotoring however I do own and fly a power kite every now and again, and have reached the dizzy heights of around 4-5 feet not completely with control I might add I am around 18st and pretty fit so running with weight would be no problem, I would not be looking fast flights with hi speed turns just nice and gentle lift and flight with a nice and stable wing and information would be gratefully received regards Steve. (Just look up!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

martinpa Posted June 7, 2015 Share Posted June 7, 2015 Alex at Footflight is good, it's the nearest to Ipswich. Where abouts in Ipswich are you, I live in Kesgrave. Paul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aliengravy Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 I'm in Stradbroke. Been wanting to learn for years but just not found a local instructor. The recent "instructor" round Robin email brought me back here and I'm glad it did! I'll have a look at the local suggestions as well.
