Powered Paragliding


Business Spotlight

Black Hawk Paramotor

What is a Powered Paraglider?
Paragliding is the simplest form of flight: no plane, no windows, just you floating on air. A paraglider is a foot-launched inflatable wing. It is easy to transport, easy to launch, and easy to land. The paraglider itself has no rigid structure and the pilot is suspended by lines. The pilot is clipped into a harness, which is quite comfortable. The motor is a backpack unit with propeller to give thrust allowing you to climb and fly level at your own will.

Is Powered Paragliding safe?
It is probably the safest form of private aviation ever devised, It is safer than flying in small planes or riding motorcycles but not as safe as driving. One reason for the good safety record is that most problems will prevent the pilot from successfully taking off. Like other adventure sports, it's as safe or dangerous as you make it.

ParaToys is the #1 selling brand Powered Paraglider & Paramotor equipment in America!
