  • It's kind of a rite of passage for paramotor pilots to fly at the beach. Recently I finally got that chance with several of my paramotor buddies to fly at Panama City Beach, Florida. Truly a memorable experience.
    I came home with about eight hours of flying footage from two different cameras to sort through and was able to whittle it all down to less than 15 minutes! Enjoy my favorite moments from this most excellent beach trip!

    I have to say, your production value is superior. I watch a lot of Tucker Gott, Justin, and others and your camera placement and audio are so much better. Most have the camera on their head. Your frame mount looks so much better. I don;t know how you isolated your voice but it is the clearest in-flight audio I have seen from a Paramotor pilot. Keep up the great work!

      Thanks! I've got a video background so I try to make my videos look and sound decent. I actually am flying with the helmet camera, maybe I just don't turn my head that much. LOL. And thanks about the audio compliments. I actually have to boost the paramotor noise sometimes because sometimes it doesn't sound like the voice is live during my flights.

    Looks fun! I have auto-deploying floats on my cage because, living in Florida, the water is everywhere. More pilots die from drowning than crashing. If you plan to fly over water a lot, floats are a good investment. I use the SmokePPG floats.

      Yep, I've got the same floats on my cage, just may be hard to see behind me. I never flew our local lake with my friends until I got the floatation.

    nice ride. I've been fascinated with motorless flying lately, towing from the beach and trips to paragliding destinations. So, I haven't motor flown nearly as much in years past. This vid is an encouragement to get out and do some.

      Thanks! I'd love to do some paragliding but we don't have too many hills to jump off of where I live. :-)

    Nice beach flight Steve..I love beach flying..I have floatation but I still won’t go as far out over the water as you did :)

      I got floatation last Summer so I could do some local lake flying and figured why not strap on the floatation for this trip too!

    This look amazing! My original goal when learning to ppg, was to fly the beach. Over 4 yrs now, still aint made it. Vids like this, make me hope that maybe this year is the one. Thank you for the vid!

      It's worth the trip and effort! Nothing like all day flying when the winds are coming from the water!

      Definitely. There were a few times we had to wait for the winds to die down or come from the gulf but once all was right, the winds were perfect!
