The paramotor is a machine from the ULM (ultra light motorized) family. It is composed of a sail designed on the basis of a paraglider and a propeller motor protected by a cage and fixed on a chassis. Everything is carried on the back to be able to take off while running or placed on a cart to be able to take off while rolling. The paramotor allows you to take off on flat ground. No need for a slope like for a paraglider. Thanks to its engine, it can fly level (flight at the same altitude) and can therefore cover a lot of distance. If the engine cuts out, don't panic, it glides like a paraglider thanks to its wing. All you need to do is identify a diversion area and land there safely.
It is the most practical ULM to transport (2 suitcases are enough) and it is the least expensive aircraft to fly. The feeling of freedom is immense!

FLY !
What man does not cherish the dream of taming this ability? Thrill-seekers readily turn to disciplines such as skydiving to try this liberating experience.
Paramotor flight presents itself as a reasonable alternative for those who have less strong hearts: less hectic, but just as rewarding.
The supervisors of this type of activity promise a pure experience where serenity, calm and lightness accompany the levitation interlude. This activity is aimed at people who like to achieve their goals by taking their time.
Once suspended under the sail and comfortably seated in the seat, the PARAMOTOR flight is a long series of sweet sensations. The landscapes pass by and the traveler just has to appreciate the calm of this experience which propels him a little outside of time. Even the movement of the wind is not felt in the equipment carried by the air masses.
The pilot is sufficiently seasoned to know in which of the many layers of air available it is most interesting to place the machine. If this can reassure you, its authorization is renewed very regularly, every 2 years by the civil aviation authorities. To help you get the most out of the flight.
DIZZINESS !
Everyone can enjoy this break in the air without any risk of dizziness. The explanation in very simple terms, dizziness can only occur if the body is in contact with the ground. It occurs, at height, in a context of discordance between the information arriving at the level of the inner ears and that recorded by vision. While the brain registers, through the sensations of the feet, that the body is standing on something firm – a stepladder, a bridge – the eyes transmit the information that the latter is in a vacuum. Hence the discomfort, in the form of dizziness.
THE PILOT INSTRUCTOR
Aged 32, Thomas began with paragliding courses and flights in the French Alps in 2010. He then discovered paramotoring, by chance, in his native region of Yvelines, west of Paris. Passionate about flying and bike and motorcycle mechanics, he enrolled in a school and trained in paramotoring in 2013. He flies a lot and gains experience very quickly. He then discovered the competition in 2016 where he participated in the French championship and finished second in the ranking. He then joined the friendly French Paramotor team in the single-seater trolley category and was selected to participate in the World Paramotor Championship in England where he finished 1st in his category winning this 2016 Championship in single-seater trolley WORLD CHAMPION! He will continue the competition within the French team in the foot takeoff category which will take him to fly in the Czech Republic, Thailand and other countries around the world. Since then, he has wanted to share his passion and his vision of the world through the air.
