An introduction flight can be a great way of getting your feet wet without jumping "all in" on the sport. Join us for a 30 minute intro flight where you and our certifeid tandem pilot will be hooked in together, on intercom together, and venture off into the sky together to get the full experience of what it's like flying around in a paramotor!
During this 30 minute flight we will be discussing with you a handful of valuable lessons about flying paramotors. Weather permitting, we will also pass the controls off to you, and allow you to get the feeling of flying yourself. During this flight you will get a great feel and understanding on the process of launching a paramotor, flying a paramotor, and landing a paramotor. Our instructor will be walking you through the process the entire time helping break down what is happening, and how to properly respond to it.
This tandem is a foot launch tandem, not a trike. We do not have trike tandem capabilities at this time. We like the foot launch tandems because it gives a more real world feeling as to what it will be like on your first flight.
Requirements:
- 14 years old minimum age
- 72 year old max age

- No flight experience needed
Location:
These flights will be held at the Salton Sea in southern California at the Johnsons Landing RV Park runway. This location offers great all day flying conditions, with a variety of terrain to explore during the flight. This area has consistently great weather all winter long with very few bad weather days.
Weather:
These flights are all weather dependent. We will not fly if the weather is not perfect and that means we may travel to the launch site, get all geared up, and have to call it due to conditions. We will never put passangers at risk due to bad weather. Our instructors have the right to deny you a flight if they deem the weather unsafe to be flying in.
Pricing:
These tandem flights are $299 without any videos or pictures of the flight. You are welcome to photograph and film it yourself for no additional charge. We can provide cameras, film video for you, and take photos for you for an additional $100. These bookings are non-refundable but can be rescheduled to a later date if needed.
Cancellation:
These tandem flights are 50% refundable up until completed.
Scheduling:
Upon signing up, our team will reach out to you to schedule your tandem experience. We are flying nearly 7 days a week. 365 days a year, weather permitting. If the weather is good, we're ready to rock and roll.
