Great to see you still doing content, watched you years ago. As a retired basejumper I needed something to fill the void, so I bought a Parajet Maverick with Moster 185...see you in the sky soon!! Just still ground handling my Dudet Uni for now

I can’t believe you took off right in my backyard, the closest house south of your taking off location is where I live, how did I miss you? One day I’ll meet you, maybe you’ll teach me how to fly someday.

Hiked up Picacho several times, very unique hike! Trail is from the early days of aviation when there was a locator beacon up there for the mail planes to follow. Just east across Rt. 10 is also the site of the western most Civil war battle.......more of a skirmish than anything. Cool flight!

I LOVE flying Picacho! Such a cool perspective! (remember to avoid the ostrich farm). Another good flight is the 2,800ft "Elephant Head" cliff near Green Valley AZ. Weird to see you post videos as my usual hangs! Saw you hanging out in Florida with Eric, almost had a run-in with you at the AFC last month, and I'm told I just missed you at Skydive Phoenix... I'll wing-tip touch you one of these days! ;-P

Cool video, Picacho peak is awesome and one of our favorites, that being said, it would be really great if you would talk to the local pilots before flying our favorite lz's and potentially causing us major problems. The ostrich guy named rooster weirdly, is freaking nuts and hates any aviation especially us, he's had sheriff's out there and even shot at a hot air balloon one time, unfortunately he has a big mouth and deep pockets local influence and we've spent many years going back and fourth with him about flying there the conclusion of which is we agreed to keep a good margin of space from his property and never fly over it. Thankfully, since we all adhere to that agreement, we haven't heard from him in about a year and fly there often, unfortunately after your flight, I'm sure we're going to have problems again which could potentially cost us one of our favorite lz's. As you noticed his birds were running like crazy when you flew over because they're terrified of us and they could potentially die from it, which isn't your problem or mine from a legal airspace perspective, however AZ has strict laws on endangering farm animals. I understand that naturally you would not know this as a visiter to our lz, and we love the fact that you want to fly here, but please reach out to the locals anywhere you fly so that we don't have to clean up your mess.

Welcome to Arizona Tucker! Long time watcher! Being I live in the Tucson area I was super excited to see you come to our area! I've always wanted to get into the sport but didn't even know where to start. In one of your video's you talked about starting a school in Phoenix. Let us know if you do, cause you are the only guy I would trust to teach me.

Awesome seeing you fly so close to where I live. Those views make me appreciate AZ more than ever!

I'm happy in your success Tucker, so cool to see your channel grow over the years!

I’ve lived in az my whole life it’s dope to see things from different angles

Wow, what a great flight. Thank you so much, very enjoyable.

Great video, must have missed you at the LZ by a few hours, I caution guys not to fly over the Ostrich farm over there, that guy has been known to bring out the shot gun and use it. Yes, I know, we are doing nothing wrong flying over there however that guy is crazy and claims he has 5 million dollars of birds and has shown up at this LZ pretty irate. Once again, I realize we are doing nothing wrong, but, my wing is not bullet proof.

I just bought my first paramotor after paragliding for a couple years. I'm so hyped up for the weather to improve so I can finally fly in more unique areas!

I do love watching you having fun, brilliant videos.

Awesome video ! Late 70s we were camped near the peak on Christmas morning. At about 4 am, my dad started yelling to get up. A triangle ufo at least a 4 football fields in size, totally black, three dull red 1/2 orbs on each corner floated over us. Completely silent. It went directly over the peak. Very close. The red light dimly lit the summit. It was staggering to experience. The silence was bizzare.

What a beautiful flight! Thermal free too! You make it look easy…. and fun. Great vid again Mr. T!!!

TUCK is flying a lot ... Happiness I see on his face ... Keep it up TUCK...

This is so cool. I used to drive by this all the time, it's neat to see what it looks like at the top

You did it! Thank you. I've always wanted to do exactly what you did (except fly so close to cliff face LOL). I still hope to do that one day soon. I did my solo X-country for my Private Pilot license going from Phoenix to Tucson and Yuma in a G.A. plane circa 1970!. There is something magical about Picacho Peak that is like a Siren calling my name! Now I have a Fly Products Flash Cruiser PPG and my dream is still alive. Thanks again for the grand tour!

Loved it mate! That wingover at 6:47 was INSANE! What a landscape! 😁🙌

Man, its good to see this again! I've hiked this peak back in the early 2000s when I was stationed in Tucson.

So stoked your liking Phoenix!! I grew up here for quite some time, but i first saw your channel living in the Midwest, and also just recently moved back to Phoenix! Hope to gain courage to start PPG SOON!

nice to see new content, great adventure!

Absolutely amazing Tucker!

1:58 - Based on the geography and color of their coats, those were more than likely javelina (AKA, peccary or "Skunk Pig"), which are native to the Americas and unrelated to the Suidae family (often referred to as "true pigs", which include the species we commonly call pigs/hogs/boar/etc...). While feral hogs can be found in pockets across Arizona, their populations are relatively small. It is possible, however, that they were in fact wild hogs/boar, although they tend to be found in more remote areas (javelina look remarkably similar to pigs, especially considering how far separated they are taxonomically speaking, but they are a bit smaller with almost imperceptible tails. Features which can be difficult to distinguish under even the best conditions).

Love those two laps at the end!!! Nice flying 🤜

Love the colors in this. Really looking forward to seeing how the electric motor works out for you!

What a beauty. Fantastic flight 🪂🪂🪂

Great flying and fun little adventure!

Pi-CAH-Cho 😀Peak! We renovated that state park with our nonprofit at the foot of the mountain back in 2021. It's awesome to be there in the late winter. Also, those wild boar are possibly Javelina which are native to AZ. Just wild seeing you in our home state! Enjoy the beauty!

Greetings from Nogales, AZ. Great to see you making content in my home state. I've been by Picacho many times. I've been told that a historical significance is that it is the site of the most westward location of a battle during the 'Civil War'. Nice flight especially with things getting green. Winter is over!

You are having just way too much fun in this one! Glad to see your loving Arizona so much.

That was so sick. I bet that was a blast. Just the thrill. Love the content bro.

Great video. Keep up the good work!

Dude!!! So bad ass!! The top of that mountain was sick!!! And that sunset was bad ass as well. Crazy how sketch those mountains look though when you’re up close like sharp and unforgiving!! But it was sick to see the cactus the trail and you just doing you!!! I’m gonna go to your uncut and watch that other one, your the man!!!

Love to see you flying in Az! Awesome!

Nice one, great scenery man ! 😎

Inspirational as always TG X

Awesome skills of yours.

Incredible place for the flight life

Exhilarating new landscapes. Nice to see more green mixed in. I FELT those proximity dives man lol Wahooo!! Very thrilling!!

Very Nice. I live down in Tucson and see that peak almost every single day.

THE LEGEND IS BACK AGAIN!!

An adventure flight from Tucker! It’s been too long! I love your adventure flights. Scenery slightly reminiscent of Iceland. As a Londoner, I’m surprised how verdant Arizona looks! Keep on Tucking, son!

My wife and I watched this together with the biggest smiles! Thanks for taking us on this flight with you. Inspiring, as usual!

Your "new" backyard is amazing! Do I see a base jump off that peak in the future? Your excitement is so obvious in your voice. Stay safe my friend...

Oh hey, that's near the skydiving dropzone Eloy, have hiked up it when visiting for wingsuiting.

Great perspective - thanks for getting up close! ;)

Having fun!! That's what it's all about!!

Would love to hike that mountain one day. It looks like a gorgeous landscape!

Super awesome, so dramatic and frankly scary!

I love how green everything is! Never seen Arizona like that before.

Pih•kah•cho. Picacho peak, buddy! Looks great while overcast. Heads up, when summer rolls in and monsoons roll through, it gets HECTIC right there so stay limber! Keep it all the way up, seen-your. (And inflated). 👍👌👏

Thanks Tucker that was beautiful

Picacho awesome, in the early 90s i did work on the mountain across I-10 newman peak it has the radio towers and antennas it is a helicopter only access the power lines and buildings and generator were built and lifted to the mountain with a kaman hh-43 huskie. We had to refuel the propane generator by helicopter sling load using a bell jet ranger. Tucker if you could do a flyover of newman across the 10 that would be awesome thx

I love you Tucker! You’re my inspiration!

Damn!!! Love the video🤙🏼 Loved the commentary!!! 😂

It's pronounced "Pee-Cot-Cho Peak"... we camp at the base very frequently. Very Cool perspective! I've circled it in the C172 a few times and once or twice in my Ultralight years ago.... those were likely Javelina... aka Peccary.. running below you.

Your self-awareness mid-flight was hilarious, also you crapped my pants on that last line heading towards the face.

Nice! One moment I thought you gonna land on the top of it. You know what: I thought you could! There is enough room to land and take-off again! Best.

Currently in college but I have decided that once I get a stable high paying job, I will start my paramotor journey! The only thing holding me back right now is me being a broke college student😅

I love that you chose AZ. I really hope to see you in the air sometime.

Nice video. That mountain is very unique. I'd like to see it someday.

Great video. Great scenery. Request - Do a flight video at Monument Valley.

I'm a huge fan of your work and you're so cool🎉

1:58 Those are Javelinas. Very common in southern AZ. They're also known as skunk pigs, because of the white stripe on their back and their potent musk glands. In Sierra Vista, they roam the town at night and knock over trash cans. They're also quite aggressive.

I was there, I was in the motorhome of the other side of the field. Wish I could have met you and thanked you in person for all the great videos!

Man I've been watching this for so long!! Maybe someday ill get to try it haha

Crazy to see all the green grass!

I remember driving past Picacho Peak when I was driving from Phoenix to Tucson. It is quite an impressive sight!! You should take a trip to Mt Lemmon. Ride your motorcycle up it. It is exciting!!

You ROCK my Brother !

Glad you are having a good time in Arizona. I’ve been wanting to fly my plane around Picacho. (Pee -caw -Cho). Those were javalina you saw. If you ever want to do a scenic flight in a fixed wing hit me up

***Tucker!!! I would LOVE to see you try the flying jet suit!! It seems a natural progression from the paramotor.

this video is raising my bpm man .... :D those cliffs!

Wow! I follow a KZfaqr on a trip through Baja Mexico and he saw paragliding down there and wanted to do that so I told him to check out your channel. I remember seeing that you were seeking people who might want to learn to fly.

That was sick as hell bro

Hey Tucker, Ostriches are deadly with the velociraptor-talon-things, but compared to a handful of toothy, mature boars with big cutters, CLIMB A TREE REALLY FAST!!! Boar hogs RAZOR sharp 'cutters' will shred human flesh to ribbons in a matter of seconds, and jaw strength to crush bone to dust in no time, hence the old tales of body disposal by pig LOL. Thanks for bringing us as always, hope you continue to enjoy your new home, peace!

It’s very green there, very surprising. Looks amazing.

This is sick, some risky maneuvers in there

Welcome to Arizona. I live in Tucson Arizona. Picacho peak is about 40 minutes north of Tucson.

You should totally go back and hike there. Last year the wildflower blooms in March were epic! Hopefully 2024 will be just as good.

Very intrigued about your electric paramotor, especially the batteries you decide to go with.

Tucker, I think this may be my favorite video to date. Just something about it 🤷🏼‍♂️

That was cool. Threw a little sketch for good measure. Great visuals.

As I remember from living in Mesa, AZ back in the early 80's, 93 KDKB ROCKS ARIZONA✌🙂

I cant wait to buy one and try it.

I like how the cacti are growing all the way to the cliff on the plateau... You should get a photographer and go up with the trike-mobile. That way you can concentrate on flying and the passenger can take pictures. You have a unique view of the world and I really enjoy your adventures.

After 13years of pg just adding ppg recently my 2 cents to add is that all that overcast really helped with the lack of thermal prodution on top! If those rock facing the sun all day had been able to heat up more it would probably be a different story.

Awesome video! I would love to see a review on the electric paramotor 2024 sp-140. Insight from someone with as much experience as you have would be great.

Tucker "I'm a mother*beep*in falcon" Gott 😂 Sick maneuvers on that wall! ♥️🪂☮️

Come to mt Baker!! Would love to see what the area looks like from the sky

Great to see you having fun in Arizona! However like I seen someone else touch on the ostrich farmers have a lot of pull there. As silly as an ostrich farmer having pull in the community sounds it's very true. Just be careful flying near livestock farms there in Arizona. Can't wait to catch your next upload and thank you for the crazy cliff shots!

If you think this rock was fun to fly, I think you should make a trek to the Driftless region along the Upper Mississippi River. I live in Winona MN which is in the river valley. We have 400ft to 700ft Limestone rock faces and bluffs with countless sub-valleys that go from the bluff top to the river basin. It would be a blast!

Awesome!

Pa-cach-o !! Been by it several times on I-10.

Welcome to AZ gotta check out Kitt peak and Baboquivari peak while you’re near Tucson

I lived awt in Arizona fur many years awf ole route 66 between Oatman n Kingman called Golden Valley, I miss my 3 mountain range views, the Black Mountain range always called me n drove me ole furd truckas there every chance I had available

One of my favorite things to do after getting into ppg is take the easy way up to the top of my favorite hiking spots 😆.

Cool video love the rolls but I get dizzy just watching them

Makes me miss Skydive Arizona as you can see Picacho peak in freefall.. it's even their logo!

Dude, when you freaked out you jump scared me. Neither of us were really scared tho haha
