    10 reasons why not to watch this video
    1. Title is a lie, total click bait
    2. I now want a paramotor more than food
    3. After watching his video all i can do is watch more paramotor videos
    4. I am now wasting all my time researching how to get into this sport
    5. My wife is annoyed with me for constantly watching UA-cam videos
    6. I want to spend all my money on my paramotor rather than my kids
    7. My new future hobby will be para-camping instead of just camping
    8. My friends all give me a weird look i tell them what I want to do
    9. I had to re write my bucket list
    10. I had to subscribe to Fly-guy alberta

I've had to bite my tongue when wanting talk about it. Just yesterday she said "what a beautiful sky" and I replied "we could be up there right this moment!" She rolled her eyes something fierce. Really? Tell me, what's your hobby? Oh. You like to watch chickflix on Netflix? Wow! Excuse me for being fucking excited for flight! We are the sane ones, the ones who laugh, they'll always be on the ground!!! Pshhh

    Just about a year ago I saw my first paramotor video on youtube, from Tucker Gott. Over the next couple months it was all I could think about, and I knew I was probably gonna get into this sport I couldnt afford. I saw this video floating around in my recommended videos, and really didnt want to break the spell and watch it - particularly because Im a fellow Albertan. I finally bit the bullet and watched the video and that was all she wrote for me, reached out and got into contact with Air Adventure. Finished my 9th flight a couple days ago, due to in large part this video

      I agree with you. He makes me want to use my dumb founded strength and slurr him around like a rag doll puppet. And violence ain't the answer but he sounds more of a jerk. What's wrong with expanding your horizon might make you feel more closer to the creator of things or release some tension or add mo kool point on your status. Beats shooting dope or ruining your life.

I came here via Tucker Gott's channel and expect equivalent entertainment value from you also. No, I would never ever fly a paramotor because I'm too afraid of heights and I'm also too old to try it. It's so good to find a youtube channel owned by an Albertan paramotor pilot. Thank you.

      @@nn-bv8ki well for a motor, wing, and reasonable training the costs still only come to an upward range of 15-20k which is just your average car

    I really love those ten reasons! For a long time I've been thinking of doing something like paragliding! But I never did before. And don't know from where to start! I really want to join in the club of flying! Please just let me know how start! Thank you!

    Reasons to buy one
    #1: Drones are basically banned, so paramotor is the best way to take Areal photography.
    #2: You get top notch training, ultralight license(not required in the USA), and knowledge of aviation.
    #3: It's way more fun(i would assume but I'm well short of the cost until the economy recovers)
    #4: Still Cheaper than the 10-15 drones you'd crash trying to learn to fly.
    #5: I live in the same city as an instructor.
    #6: The paragliding/motor community is small and not overflowing with duchebags and soccer moms like the storm chasing community.
    #7: I subscribed to Tucker
    #8: I subscribed to you

    #1 is actually one reason why I like drones. This uniqe perspective is something they can offer, too. Of course, you won't be flying yourself, but you can save money and you can do it if you are, like me, 16 years old and in germany.

    I want to get into Paramotoring so badly. I live in Sask and I believe someplace in Alberta is the closest place to take the course. So that's one major thing in the way right now. I just don't know if I would go there and say the weather is horrible, what happens then? Not like I can just go home and come back another day.

    pure genius and spot on! You think motor is obsession free flight paragliding is times 10! Always looking at pressure how fast air is rising, thermal size, cloud base, where I can go and how the hell do I get back to my car. haha

    As long as you are responsible and not an idiot on these things I see no issue into not getting one. I want one so bad but I have to pay off a couple bills first. I've actually found a few good rigs for around 3300
