People ask me sometimes if I'm crazy when I explain that I fly PPC's (powered parachutes). I try my best to explain what it's like to fly and experience the world from 5 to 500 feet.
The best way for me to express it, is that i's like taking a motorcycle ride in the sky. I add another dimension to the world, my world, and that is altitude.
Watch this video and you might get a glimpse of what it's like for me when I'm flying..
These backpack units are called PPG's (powered paragliders). A bit smaller than PPC"s but definitely more portable.
Imagine flying through a beautiful pasture, or down a meandering river... As you pass between tall trees or along a curve in the stream, you catch a glimpse of something just over the next hill... Suddenly you're gliding higher, exploring a yet unseen piece of the world you'd never have been able to experience without the aid of your powered paraglider... Experiencing true freedom and real flight in it's rawest form.
