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
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.
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.
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!!!
Sorry about your loss. God speed Jeff!
What’d he lose
I somehow missed the news about Jeff! 🤷♂️ 😞 So sorry!!!!
@@L2FlyMN wtf happened
@@jimmynerdtron11 Jeffrey Chorba died in a crash recently
@@jimmynerdtron11 What I was asking, & hadn't heard. Informed below. He was recently killed in a crash. 😔
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.
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 KZhead again :)
What happened to Jeff?
@@jobflobad0by0b From what I've found out, there was a paramotor crash.
@@Ryan-ed1lq oh my, do we know what happened?
@@jobflobad0by0b I couldn't find anything on the cause, but he sure was experienced. It may not have been pilot error.
@@Ryan-ed1lq very sorry to hear :/
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.
Despite his ignoring of this comment, his most recent videos that step away from his typical style also have less than his average number of views. It’s easy to see when you compare the past 4 excluding the most recent one since that isn’t really fair.
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.
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
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
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.
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!!
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🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
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.
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!
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...
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!
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.
Hi nanba
Great video. Love the well thought out details. Thanks for sharing.
So glad to hear from you here. Many prayers your way. Looking forward to many years!!!
Very informative video thankyou, I'm just going to do the flight training course, looking forward to the experience, brilliant video
Great video! Love watching you fly your Paramotor.
Excellent work, brother! This is great for experienced guys to watch, just as well as newbies. 👍😎👍
Great post my friend. I've been waiting for this rundown 🤩
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.
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
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 ❤️👊🏻
Bro! Fancy running into you here. How's the fam?
@@nategoodwin3329 Great to hear from you, Nate! Doing good, our newest member of the family, Emmett, is a boy of joy ☺️ How are you guys?!
@@Seadog9511 Congrats on the little one!!! That's awesome. I remember how much you guys wanted to start a family. We're doing well, the girls are growing scary fast and I've been flying with the Louisville group of pilots. Life is pretty damn good.
Hope your keeping your head high tucker much live from Minnesota
I really enjoyed this video and appreciate the info. Thank you so much for posting.
Another great video for beginners. Thanks!!
Thank you for the informative video! I hope you're doing well and had a good break where you could really focus on yourself!
This will become the classic introduction video for powered paragliding training. Extremely articulate and well done!
Great training video.
Great video Tucker!👍
Awesome video, Tucker! Thank you!
That was excellently explained. Very well done.
One of the best How To’s. Good Job TG.
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
Dale shanze best parar-motor trainer. FLATTOP!
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!
Great overview. Even though I'm not planning to Paramoter I found it interesting. Thanks.
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.
Basic understanding = Complete!
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
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!
Hi ! I will do training in few weeks also, and this videos arrives right on point. I already bought my gear. I am so hyped, can't wait to fly. I am trying to learn how inflate my wing already. Wish you the best Blake !
@@Le-J- Thanks, Same to you!
Been hoping for some time you would get into the technical details of how to fly one of these. Excellent work!!
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👍🏻🤙🏻
Well done, great explanations!
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!
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.
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!
this looks amazing !!
Useful video. Thanks
Those shorts got me thinking you need a Risqué Biscuits shirt. :D
All my air time is fixed wing stick and rudder UL. This was very informative. 👍
Great lesson tuck
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
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.
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.
Fantastic Tucker!... It's pretty complex & nuanced hey? but you Nailed the explanation!!... 🙏
Thanks for the free training! Now imma go do wingovers and powerloops!
Well done, excellent video. Stay Classy!
Tucker!!! You are seriously tempting me to spend my kids inheritance!!!
Thank you for sharing, in some ways boost my confidence in flying this machine.
I want to learn to fly, Very good video from you, Thanks
Thank you so much for the detils
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. 😎
That looks so rad.
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!
Hi guys, i just completed my course in Bendigo at Knowsley Airpark with Justin. He was brilliant. Where are you planning on learning?
Great video!
Wow! Great information
Now in my bucket list!
Outstanding, thank you.
hell yeah! awesome video
Loved it!
Glad to see you're back in the air.
An excellent video.
Well said..well done
Excellent!
Bro your a legend
Great video i may buy one soon
This looks so awesome, on average how many hours training & school time would be required before going out alone & a rough guide on cost to get all the gear needed. not sure i like the idea of the foot drag tho seems like a great way to damage an ankle if it went south quickly. get up stay up until its time to come down.
Wow. How fascinating. If I were 40 yrs younger I'd be trying this. Thank you for this vid.
Thank you mate
Great Video Tucker , Can't wait until I can watch your takeoff again.... John
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
This is SOOO bad ass, I'm 100% doing this in Canada!
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)
So sorry to hear of your loss on here today.
Hi Tucker. Greetings from Scotland. You should invite a few of the local PD to come and do a short tandem flight with you. Always good to keep them onside.
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
Amazing video.. 👍👍👍
Wonderful.
Oh man Tucker finally did it. He just put all the schools out of business! 😂😂😂
Yippee! A new Gott
Cool video lots like a flex wing trike. Trikes have there own plane charasitistcs. AWSOME
