Beginner Paramotor Training

Get ready to enter the wonderful world of flight! We’ll start by covering all the basics from gear terminology to weather patterns. By establishing a solid foundation early on, you will be able to confidently navigate the entire flight process before taking to the skies. Our training includes a thorough understanding of the Federal Aviation Regulations (FAR) 103 and mastery of the necessary skills for competent piloting such as ground handling (kiting), launch techniques, equipment care and maintenance, understanding weather, aerodynamics, and more!

 We begin training with kiting sessions and practice until you are able to handle the glider independently. Depending on weather conditions, some students may be ready to begin solo flights within just a few days. From there we will continue practicing basic maneuvers to make sure you have a rock solid foundation and are confident in your abilities before going off to fly on your own. 

Our courses follow the USPPA syllabus which means that by the end of your training you will be a USPPA Certified PPG 1 and PPG 2 pilot. We administer written tests and issue ratings during the training process. Having acquired the hours and skills necessary, we also offer assistance in obtaining your PPG 3 rating.

Our training course is priced at $3000. That comes with use of all of our new and up to date gear, a tandem flight (if possible), and a copy of the most current PPG Bible. We will work with you over a dozen different sessions to help achieve your PPG 1 and PPG 2 pilot ratings the USPPA.

If you choose to purchase a new wing and motor through us, we offer a special $500 discount to our students that commit to training! This a measurable amount of savings!

Aviation lovers from all walks of life gravitate towards paramotoring. Its "self-regulated" nature provides the most rewarding experiences and freedom that no other form of aviation can!

While some people see a paramotor as a lawnchair or motorcycle in the sky, the truth is, this sport can be physically taxing. However, anyone can paramotor with the right accommodations. With trikes and lightweight motors there are simple solutions for just about anyone to get airborne. 

If you are someone who is simply curious about flying, looking for a new hobby, or just trying to add some more adventure to your life, paramotoring may be just the thing for you!

NOTE: We do recommend that you be in relatively good physically fit shape. The training process can be demanding from start to finish. We must insist that you are a healthy individual with quick reflexes, calm under pressure, open minded, and have good mental attitude. As difficult as it is, we must insist that you are under 65 years of age as paramotor training is demanding in all facets. 

Once you complete your training, you shouldn't feel like you are alone. We have a great community of pilots both local to Northern Utah and Southern Idaho and even around the world that you can get in touch with. The paramotor community is generally very welcoming and everyone loves a good wingman! No matter where you are located, we can help you find the community nearest to you. 

No matter how many hours, months, years, decades of flying you have, you will always be a student of aviation. So never hesitate to reach out with questions, we are more than happy to educate or learn alongside!

While you are welcome to train with our school equipment as you gain confidence and understanding of what you need, we do recommend purchasing your wing before training starts or early in the training process so we can help you get set up and comfortable with it before going off on your own. 

It is important to make sure you reach out to us before you purchase anything used or from other dealers. THIS IS NOT FOR US TO CAPTURE A SALE OVER SOMEONE ELSE! This is to make sure you are buying quality gear from a reputable seller. It happens more often than one might think. The market is full of a lot of junk and when students arrive with gear they "got a good deal on" it creates more headaches for you. Trust us when we say that, you may think you got a good deal at the time, but 9/10 times you will end up spending more money in the long run. 

There are tons of options for paramotors on the market. Luckily, we've spent years flying everything we could get our hands on. We will take a targeted approach to understanding your exact mission when it comes to flying and make recommendations based on that. We will NEVER recommend something to you simply because it provides us more margin. We make sure the motor or wing you choose is designed to fit your needs or flying style. 

This is one aspect that sets us apart from other schools. We are not in the business to make as much money as possible. We are in the business to provide you with the best possible equipment and experience to meet your mission in this sport. With access to nearly all the major brands, we can provide you with what you want AND need.
