Parabatix: The Ultimate Sky Race

Andrew — Wed, 10 Oct 2012 11:50:37 +0000

Parabatix is the ultimate sky race where the world’s best freestyle paramotor pilots fly through a ground-skimming aerial race course, swooping around pylons and under bridges while racing against the clock. Aside from skydiving, I’m always up for more aerial awesomeness. What about you… have you ever flown a paramotor before?

Who Needs Planes… Paramotor Skydiving FTW!

Who needs planes for skydiving when you can use a paramotor instead, right?! So here’s the idea: you hang on to a rope for dear life while your friend hauls your ass up to 1,000 feet (give or take) on his paramotor. You let go. Rinse and repeat. What could possibly go wrong?

The Tunisian Duel: Ride The Desert

This is something a little different that I just had to share. Paramotor champion Pascal Vallée and enduro motorcycle champion Fabien Couderc challenge each other to a duel in Tunisia to promote their respective sports. This creative concept was captured by the talented Shams Prod, the man behind the popular “Showtime” edit.

Swooping A Camel In The Desert. True Story.

Jonathan Tagle of the PD Factory Team swoops past a camel — seemingly running for its life — on his paramotor in the Dubai desert. I’m sure PETA (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals) would have a thing or two to say if they saw this, but f*ck ‘em if they can’t take a joke. Aside from “WTF!” what do you think was going through the camel’s mind at the time?
