The moment I started to like my paramotor

2 days ago I decided to break out from the grey November weather and climbed over fog and clouds with my Blackhawk Paramotor! I ended up having the most amazing paramotor experience of my life so far!
Feels like I finally start to find the joy in this art of flying! Yeah right it is noisy and stinky...but it offers the freedom to see our world from a totally different perspective and to experience things that otherwise would be impossible without a motor. I am more and more connected with my engine which is really reliable and gives me great confidence with a sense of security. This is the most important factor to me. I also started to perform some aerobatics maneuvers using my 21.5 m2 U-Turn X3. So far I did a couple of SATs, Helicopters and Wing-Overs of course. I just need to install my smoke system to spice it up with visual effects! :-)

Many thanks to my sponsor Blackhawk for supporting my way into paramotor flying! I am very thankful for their super friendly attitude, competence in the sport, helpful skype service and endless patience to teach my non-mechanic soul the essentials of paramotoring...Thank you!

A video edit of my flight is coming up soon! ;-)

U-Turn Everest 19m2 light weight wing test flight

Received and tried the new Everest from U-Turn! A pure hike & fly wing. I choose the 19m2 model with only 2,37 kg and still thermals nicely!

Chasing shadows!

Been out on the fields near my home chasing my shadow and practicing a little with my Blackhawk Airmax 220! The machine is working just fine :)

A 5-star home flying site!

Getting ready to launch at my new home-site, Osterfelderkopf! So gorgeous! Still can barely believe, the landing place is 2 minutes from my house :)
Great for acro and the 274 km German record was flown from here, what else do you need!?

Discovering Eibsee with SUP

Every day we love our new home more and more! :)
Today we were discovering the crystal clear Eibsee in a great way, stand-up pedaling for the first time in our life!

Took my X3 Rainbow up for a flight to Osterfelderkopf after the big snowfall the other day. It was wonderful up there! Since then most of it is gone...
