Curious about paramotors? Want to learn to fly? You can.

Self Training

Self training isn't the best idea. There are some things about the sport that are harder than they look. Without guidance, you may not have awareness of issues that could lead to problems. For your own safety, get training!

Some Training Options

There are a lot of good places to train. This is just a few of the ones I have heard good things about. Everyone has stories, both good and bad from most instructors. Take your time researching until you are comfortable.

• Team Fly Halo - https://flyhalo.com/team-fly-halo-basic-training/

• Aviator - https://aviatorppg.com/training/

• Eric Dufour - https://paramotoracademy.com/training/

• Kyle O - https://www.ppgzone.com/the-best-ppg-training-the-kyle-o-school-of-paramotor/

• PPG Gorilla (Trike training specialty and foot launch too) - https://www.ppggorilla.com/training.html

Guided Self Training

This is an interesting guided self training program created by a flying friend of mine.

A Few Bad Apples

There are a couple of "bad apples" in the paramotor community. These are places to avoid. There are exceptions. These guys have their die-hard fans. The main problem with both of them is their attitude is that they are the only ones that can properly train people and only they sell safe equipment. Everyone else is going to die. You will see them all over online, so I won't link to them here. Just take your time looking for a trainer.

There are a lot of Facebook groups. Here are a few of the big ones to get you started.
