Tucker, I'm sorry for the loss of your friend Jeff. Although it is obviously very hard to do at this time, I'm glad to see you remaining positive and forging ahead. We, as your faithful friends and followers, appreciate your strength.

Sorry about your loss. God speed Jeff!

Glad to see you back on the horse my brother!! That was a hard pill to swallow and I am so sorry for Jeff and his family. Keep doing what you love!!!

My toxic trait is thinking i could do this first try with just this video

Tucker, you are the great communicator. Nobody brings it all together like you do. I am 82, and not doing this sport at all, but I absolutely worship your videos.

We love you so much, Tucker. I seriously doubt Jeff ever had any regrets about flying even until the moment he left us. God speed Jeff, and It's good to see you back on KZfaq again :)

Just realized how perfect the audio is. Damn you got it dialed. Can still here the motor faintly which would be weird if you couldn’t but yet zero wind noise and voice is crystal clear. Small things make a big difference in video quality

I know this video is older. I'm stationed in Germany and I watch these paramotors fly by often. I find it so awesome. Paramotors,hot air balloons and gliders are popular over here. Watching them fly by and seeing your videos I really want to try this.

Tucker, if you happen to see this, I am sorry about Jeff. I know he meant a lot to you. Moving on, thank you for your responsibility with your instruction when it comes to the sport. For those of you out there that want to get into this, PAY FOR THE PROPER TRAINING! I REPEAT. PAY FOR THE PROPER TRAINING. It is worth the few thousand in total cost (including beyond the class fees). Especially if you are going to be buying 10k in equipment. We are allowed to enjoy this sport. in its current form, because of responsibility and safety. Once those fall, more rules and restrictions will follow. Lets keep the community and name recognition its it current and positive form. Love you all.

Glad to see you back and I'm sorry about Jeff. Hopefully we get to see a tribute video to Jeff. He was in so many of your videos. It would be nice to give him a farewell tribute.

Thanks for this, Tucker. I think despite all the videos you've released, sometimes both your old and newest viewers could use a good, solid return to the basics.

This video really helps me to understand so that I’m a bit more ready when I go into training with a school. Thanks Tucker

Sorry for the loss and you are always awesome and charging people with positive energy 👏 and explains about each situation why it happened and take out people fear.

Great video. Lots of good info and very direct and to the point. Thank you for putting this out there! I feel better about getting my first rig. I'm a private pilot of a fixed wing. The paramotor just seems like so much fun. The closest thing to being a bird as you can get

Awesome video Tucker, this will definitely come in handy reinforcing the basics and even more advanced maneuvers at Aviator. Thanks for all you continue to do for this sport ❤️👊🏻

I enjoyed the clear and concise descriptions you gave throughout the different maneuvers.

Tucker, Always a pleasure to watch your videos. I think of you all the time when I'm flying! Changed my life for the better! God bless!

You got med started flying in 2018. Thank you, Tucker. It's amazing.

So glad to hear from you here. Many prayers your way. Looking forward to many years!!!

I love this. I can't wait to start my 2 week course in country Victoria, Australia. Could you do a video on the reserve? have you ever had to use it? many thanks!

Thanks Tucker for the video, very informative, can't wait to get into this sport ... Sorry for Jeff, but at least he went doing something he loved!!... Glad to see you back up in the air and on the Tube... Keep your head in the clouds, a shout out from SoCal...

Very informative video thankyou, I'm just going to do the flight training course, looking forward to the experience, brilliant video

Great video. Love the well thought out details. Thanks for sharing.

Those shorts got me thinking you need a Risqué Biscuits shirt. :D

Thanks Tucker! I’ve had my equipment for awhile but haven’t had the courage to follow up on using it! With this fantastic course that you’ve provided here…. I’m gonna “send it” for the first time this weekend!!! Thanks!!

Another great video for beginners. Thanks!!

Awesome thank you for this! This definitely helped out a lot. I'm currently doing training in Doha Qatar right now with skymaster. I was having a hard time trying to smooth out my turns and landings and this video explanation helped a lot! Thanks Tucker!

Hey Tucker, I am glad to see you back! Although I am not yet on the sport, you haven been a huge motivator to me (I love everything that flies). I am so sorry for the loss of your good friend Jeff. All the love to Jeff's family, friends and to you! I wish to all of you all the best energies from the universe🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

Hope your keeping your head high tucker much live from Minnesota

Thanks for another great one Tucker! I made my first paramotor flight last week! My Parajet has been ordered! Your videos have inspired me and I am very thankful for them all! I agree, get good training, the risks are too high and this sport is too unforgiving of mistakes! Have fun, fly safe!

thank you for this video, as someone has already stated as A visual learner it is so good to have this tool to reinforce the training

Loved this video. Breaking down the basics of paramotor flight is great. Not sure if you’ve done a video breaking down the basics of the equipment, how it all works, and best practices for storing it between flights. I know you have a lot of videos on your channel and I’ve been a subscriber for awhile so I’m sorry if I missed that one. Thank you.

Great video! Love watching you fly your Paramotor.

This will become the classic introduction video for powered paragliding training. Extremely articulate and well done!

Dale shanze best parar-motor trainer. FLATTOP!

I really enjoyed this video and appreciate the info. Thank you so much for posting.

Excellent work, brother! This is great for experienced guys to watch, just as well as newbies. 👍😎👍

Lots of information to remember even after watching you for years. I missed something because I don't know about Jeff. You demonstrating all the moves was very interesting. Great video by the hottest legs in flight. Pax.

This is very helpful thanks. I have my first tandem flight in Lake Wells on the 17th. After that I will know for sure if I want to continue on with the training. But I am enjoying my book and your videos.

Awesome video, Tucker! Thank you!

Useful video. Thanks

Basic understanding = Complete!

That was excellently explained. Very well done.

Great post my friend. I've been waiting for this rundown 🤩

Great training video.

Thank you for the informative video! I hope you're doing well and had a good break where you could really focus on yourself!

Great overview. Even though I'm not planning to Paramoter I found it interesting. Thanks.

Well done, great explanations!

Sorry about your friend, thoughts and prayers to you and all his friends and family. Thanks for the great content, this video is very well done and very informative

Great video Tucker!👍

One of the best How To’s. Good Job TG.

Thank you so much for the detils

Tucker!!! You are seriously tempting me to spend my kids inheritance!!!

All my air time is fixed wing stick and rudder UL. This was very informative. 👍

I still want to learn! Someday I will reach my goal and go to Aviator! Thanks for the great videos and inspiration. ✌️❤️

We don’t have a parameter yet… But can’t wait to get our first!! Thanks for the video. I been following your channel for about a year or so👍🏻🤙🏻

I want to learn to fly, Very good video from you, Thanks

Thank you for sharing, in some ways boost my confidence in flying this machine.

this looks amazing !!

Great lesson tuck

Thanks for the free training! Now imma go do wingovers and powerloops!

I really enjoyed the video and the very well explained info. I'm a private pilot with about a thousand hours but it's been a while. I would really like to try this, and your videos are so inspiring.

Been hoping for some time you would get into the technical details of how to fly one of these. Excellent work!!

Outstanding, thank you.

Well done, excellent video. Stay Classy!

Fantastic Tucker!... It's pretty complex & nuanced hey? but you Nailed the explanation!!... 🙏

Incredible stuff man!! I can’t wait to join the Hillsborough paragliding community circa 2023!! I trust that Aviator paramotor has equipmemt rentals (Try before I buy) but either way, what an incredible view. Great demo. All love!

Well said..well done

Wow! Great information

This is great! Always good for all of us to revisit the fundamentals and make sure we're flying safe. I like to go over my training notes from flight school every month or so. And despite how controversial training videos can be, I think the logic proof is that people will either get training or not despite videos being available. So at the very least providing information to those that decide not to is better than them flying without the info. Therefore, stuff like this is valid and adding value to the sport. ...but also go get training everyone haha

Thanks for your channel Tucker, I'm another Tucker inspired guy about to kick off 2 weeks of paramotor pilot training tomorrow! So keen cheers! BTW perfect timing on this vid :) well for me anyways haha

That looks so rad.

Tucker, thank you. This was a fantastic video for those flirting with Paramotoring. Super informative and really cracks open the basics of flight to the uninitiated. Awesome.

BRO! I didn't know you learned at the Lake Wales location. I was a part of the 3 116th Field Artillery unit the Florida Army National Guard unit in front of the place you learned. That was my unit and I been following you for years. Thats wild!

Now in my bucket list!

Great video!

Very well explained , please continue with basics of the controls and how they all work as one . There is a lot of coodination going on.Thanks ...KTW.

Great video i may buy one soon

An excellent video.

Bro your a legend

Excellent!

Thank you mate

Glad to see you're back in the air.

hell yeah! awesome video

Loved it!

I'm going to training in a few weeks! These break down videos help with understanding of what I'm to expect, as a visual learner this stuff really helps me understand what's going on. I find myself hitting the 10 second skip back button and slowing stuff down to watch your movements. I did the same thing to become a better motorcycle rider both street and off-road. I appreciate the time you take for videos like this and breaking it down Barney style!

Wonderful.

Cheers mate! Im about to head off on my Paramotor course. Illegal to fly here in Australia without the license. There's some great tips in your vids!

Great Video Tucker , Can't wait until I can watch your takeoff again.... John

Thanks, Tucker this video took away Some of my questions, but digged up some more. But I have to review it several times. If you have time you would be appreciated to do the same video with your trike. And could you also talk about the choice of horse powers or thrust (ex. 90kg at 6500rpm) in relation to MTOW and wingsurface (28-34sqm). Waiting for the next video. 😎

Sorry to hear about your frn I'm new to this wanting to learn thank you for the videos I want to learn all I can nothing like doing it more you'll understand

Cool video lots like a flex wing trike. Trikes have there own plane charasitistcs. AWSOME

This is SOOO bad ass, I'm 100% doing this in Canada!

Wow. How fascinating. If I were 40 yrs younger I'd be trying this. Thank you for this vid.

Thanks for the detailed instructional my guy, very cool! (but forreal, this was very helpful for understanding how not crash on your first time flying by yourself lol)

Amazing video.. 👍👍👍

Very nice!!!!

I felt tempted to start myself on it🤘😆

So sorry to hear of your loss on here today.

Beautiful, Tucker! Thanks! I've just about decided to tackle this bucket list item. I'm 65, 6' 0" , and weigh about 200 Kg. What things should I be considering based on physique? I don't have heart issues, black-out issues, nor altitude related seizures. I've flown small planes. I am not interested in "trikes". I want to do foot launches only, and I tend to be conservative , so I'm not going to be ready, for quite some time, for advanced maneuvers. For now, I basically just want to 'fly' in still air (early mornings, late evenings). marcus
