I first learned about the Retracta Trike from your videos. I struggled with foot launching because of weak knees and difficulty running. I didn’t start training until I was in my sixties. The trike made all the difference for me. I also purchased my trike from Bob. Excellent product, simple and it works.

Great to hear this. Bob’s work is amazing. The quality of his workmanship is first rate, and the Retracta is pure genius. ❤️❤️

Im a student of Matt Fox, the best trainer in the southern hemisphere! I'm so glad I only live 10 minutes down the road. I fly a retracta trike with a Parajet Maverick and Sky150 engine. i am partially disabled with a degenerative autoimmune disease, and at 150kg i get my fat lard arse into the air with ease and retain all the training very well. The club that is associated with the training site is a group of great friends, i serve as the club secretary currently. This sport can be accessed by basically anyone. Even those paralyzed waist down can enter this sport. Fly safe and see you in the fair air!

This comes to you from Reno, Nevada, USA. I wanted to thank you for helping me getting into this wonderful life at 62. I ran into your early videos and was inspired by your determination. I was 210 pounds and had arthritis in the shoulders and hips from a crash in a helicopter years ago in the service. I found an awesome instructor, Dave Jewel from Blue Sky’s Powered Paragliding, who helped me find a quad Paramotor and stuck with me until he felt I had it right. I finished school last December and am loving my experience in this form of flight. Thank you for the encouraging us old fat guys. God Bless you, sir.
