Adam's Paramotor Life - Nostalgic Flight (Flying Orginal Setup after 4 years)

With all the "new" equipment I've purchased and tested, what was it like to go back to the beginning. Flying my orginal setup!

spyder3 is my new wing! bloody love it so much.

[@C3darCr33k]

This looks so good! I am moving my life forward to where I can afford the money and the time to get into this. Seeing a video like this helps me stay motivated. I really want to fly!

[@adam-newbloom]

Best of luck! I waited 10 years to commit and I wish I wouldn't have waited so long!

[@tango_sierra8608]

Love my spyder

[@ParamotorNC]

That is a great setup right there, well maintained motor and Spyder 26m.

[@adam-newbloom]

Do you ever miss your old motor a wing?

[@RichieParamotorBrummie]

Enjoyed that video thanks . I am currently flying a roadster 2 but I’m waiting on the new roadster 4 coming but Might wait until new spyder comes out next year . I think ozone are adding winglets to all their new wings now too

[@adam-newbloom]

Good choice! Those are solid wings!

[@lobbyrobby]

Subbed. Great video man. I'm thinking about going to Aviator this coming winter. Granted every year is different but how was the weather down there in Jan? I'm thinking about sometime in Nov-Feb. And if you don't mind I'd like to pick your brain more on how training went while you were there. And I don't know if this is a bad idea but I might be interested in that Mav if you do sell it.

Hey buddy, conditions were pretty awesome in january. It's much cooler, which makes it easier because it's a lot of work. Shoot me an email if you have more questions. [e-mail]

Good morning Adam, I just seen your channel for the first time. I am in the process to start PPG. In this video, I saw a lot of things that bring up questions regarding the choice I need to make on equipment to purchase. Will you be willing to help me out with some answers. If yes, where/how can I contact you?

[@adam-newbloom]

Shoot me an email buddy, [e-mail]

[@coloradocj243]

Where in Tennessee? That's a beautiful area. I am in Sparta (near Cookeville).

[@adam-newbloom]

Sweet buddy, I'm about 30 minutes Southwest of Knoxville

[@tango_sierra8608]

Going from a spyder to a sirraco when would you say you’d be ready? Is there that much difference in dynamic-ness? I have about 70hr. Very small wingovers, launches and landings are dialed in, oscillation control is easy. Mainly just want to upgrade “early” because I want a smaller wing for easier inflations and more flair. I’m a fair weather pilot so most of my flying is nil wind so the 24m spyder can be a dog

[@adam-newbloom]

Sounds like you definitely ready for the upgrade, the Sirocco can feel intimidating at first but after you fly a couple times you get all the safety benefits of the spyder but it is easier to inflate, more fun to land and offers better Dynamics. I upgraded around the same time, never looked back! It's one of my favorite wings!

Hey Adam, what's your weight? Ordered a 26m roadster at 170lbs, hoping it's not too big. I am kinda between sizes and instructor didn't have a preference for me. Flew a 24m mojo in class which worked well but I'm hoping to have more speed with the roadster despite the larger size.

[@RichieParamotorBrummie]

I’m 205lbs (93kg) and I fly a 26 The weight range is 80-140 kg My all up weight is approx 135kg . I was advised by o be towards the top of the weight range when I did my course and it’s fantastic for me . The manufacturer will always say that you should be in the middle (though I suppose Ozone is more honest), regardless of what pilots have to say. Every pilot who flies will tell you that you should be near the top of the weight range, but if you email customer service and ask, they will say middle. With the exception of UP, the advice for every brand I've seen is to be at least in the top half, if not heavier. It's physics - higher wing loading means more responsive handling, more collapse resistance, ~3km/h higher speed on full bar on top of the range vs in the middle. Go to a comp and almost every single pilot will be near the top of the weight range. You will be ok mate your all up weight will prob be approx 125kg 👍🏻
