EPIC Trench Run On My Paramotor!

[@flyingdanwitha29sedan]

Epic video man! Wow I love how you do your editing! You kill it man! Sweet adventure dude!!!

[@bellabrink8610]

The “let’s go over here AACHOOOOO” got me lol but you stuck to it and got it out!😂

[@Stephen8601]

Perhaps this is one of the most amazing videos I've seen. The fantastic and beautiful scenery is just so incredible. Totally unreal, plus the oodles of superlatives one could throw in.

[@abdul01020]

WOW, You are my inspiration for beginning with PPG.. THX :)

[@boarderboiii]

So cool see you fly over all my home town spots. The locals know the mountain with the flag on it from the last episode as "El Cap" and the trench from this episode as the "Wide spot". Spent a lot of time hiking and riding dirt bikes out there and always dreamed of base jumping and paramotoring out there.

[@DARKSLIDEHLL]

this is the stuff I love, best paramotor content abou, keep smashing it Tucker!

[@Punkk1980]

That area is just an amazing place to fly. Wish I could have made this years fly in. Thx for sharing your adventure.

[@mikepierce1228]

Another super great vid chillin on a beautiful morning in Gods country!!! Thanks Mr. T!

[@BeRadWill]

That’s dope Tucker! Arizona looking good on you.

[@SkyHikerMike]

Heck yeah, those tree sways are my jam! Nicely done!

[@benedictcumberbatch4275]

This is a neat video, with the obstacle maneuvering and all

[@42bonsai]

I almost tipped out of my office chair during the cruise through the canyon/ trench area - I was leaning for you - trying to dodge the trees. Ha ha haha

[@benedictcumberbatch4275]

Always a pleasure

[@joshsalmons1867]

Reminded me of the farm fields you flew through in NJ. I miss those NJ evenings.

[@TuckerGott]

Me too. But then I remember that they shut down almost ever LZ.

[@frankalbergo8120]

Flipping EPIC. Thanks.

[@tonytrumble]

God Bless you Tucker

[@butchdavis2703]

I definitely need to fly there. It’s amazing.

[@deanwhite9394]

amazing sights

[@r2droidbuilder147]

Did someone say, "Trench Run?" Stay on target... stay on target...

[@Snowwie88]

There is something AWESOME about high speed low flying, it's like that at that moment you feel really like a bird. Please do more in the future. 😊😊

[@mattc.310]

That trench was pretty sweet. Used to run those with ATVs. Fun Times. Air looked a little sketchy. Love the visuals.

[@BobthePilot]

Keep in mind the diameter of dust devils close to the ground. Beautiful country with much to explore. Excellent move from the east. Looking fwd to the adventures. I would take my motorcycle to PPG events. To windy to fly or kite, let's ride just don't forget to take us along.

[@tomgillotti]

Love these type of videos!

[@CraigStephens777]

Awesome Sights. 😊

[@warrenkral6562]

If you know it will be a hard and long launch, why do so many ppl take off so close to the campers? Just walk the motor a little farther away.

[@gpaull2]

“No wind, I can launch any direction…I’ll pick the one with obstacles.” 🤦‍♂️

[@warrenkral6562]

@@gpaull2 over and over again. It's wild lol

[@briancox2721]

Because that makes it a shorter trip for the people with the shovels to clean up your grease spot remains.

[@Muotaman9958]

To show off maybe??

[@rule1dontgosplat]

Family Guy Star Wars explained this: “We are evacuating. We literally have infinite directions in which to flee, so obviously we will be heading directly towards the fleet of star destroyers”

[@hateeternalmaver]

There's no run like the trench run.

[@DaveBartholomew-uf6sm]

Great flying Tucker. Hope you were not as close to those trees as the camera showed. I love doing washes like that even in my PPC, even at my old age. Not as agile, but still fun, . 🪂🪂

[@harleyrdr1]

1:43 - Just curious, have you ever used the shadow to check the status of your wing?

[@iamoverthelies637]

Guess I had it wrong. I always thought air density is lower the higher you go & higher density the lower you go. Mountaineers say the air is "thin" up at altitude, so high density is thin air.... that clears that up. Cheers

[@TuckerGott]

No you’re right, the air is thinner and less dense. But high density altitude is also correct, high is referring to the altitude, not the density.

[@xiolage]

3:45 bless you

[@TuckerGott]

Thanks. 😮‍💨

[@bitcoinbeast]

Why is it called a wash? Also are you anywhere near Lake Havasu? Great vid, cheers from the UK

[@ParamotorTrainingUk]

Canyon Run definite fun

[@floridamike75]

Awesome vid Tuck. So Colby wearing Crocks? Probly not ideal right especially if you gotta treck back on foot from a breakdown...

[@TuckerGott]

Colbe ALWAYS wears Crocs. Its a rule.

[@tomraines7398]

kinda looks like a sasquatch shadow on the far rock face at 8:27 😀

[@svenholmquist]

were the crocs in all-terrian mode?

[@J_Gurn32]

Let's brainstorm a way to add yaw control to those wings. Crosswind landings would add to the fun.

[@flyingtime5501]

I've seen plenty of the guys who been flying awhile land crosswind. Its just mastering wing control.

[@henningerhenningstone691]

Tucker, you always make it look easy (except when you butt-plant 😅 jk) but the other pilots' launches here really gave some insight into the conditions

[@smgsmg]

I love flying so low. I know there's a risk, but when there's a risk it's fun. 😁

[@geraldbarlow8664]

That's my home town

[@sidekickfanboy2904]

One of your old videos you talked about a problem with your cement in the driveway did you ever get it fixed.

[@TuckerGott]

Yes! I updated instagram but never KZbin. The guy apologized and came back to fix it.

[@evancrowley84]

That sounded like one of those sneezing fits that leaves your joints hurting afterwards. Hate those!

[@TuckerGott]

Yeah there must have been a lot of pollen in southern Utah. It was bad!

[@ruffrider2626]

Proof of life. W.

[@dr_harrington]

Big thermal? TURN!

[@JonasGreenFethr]

Yeah, yeah, but can you bullseye womprats at that speed?

[@iamalongusername]

I really hope Tucker never has a serious accident

[@Mike0405H]

I read the title as “trench gun” and thought he strapped a Tommy gun to his paramotor

[@JC-wv7db]

When I read "run on my paramotor" I was like woah that's a real expensive machine to run on. Crazy stuff man

[@TuckerGott]

I totally would. But I think the FAA would be upset.

[@flyingtime5501]

​@@TuckerGottmaybe paintball? Airsoft?

[@flyingtime5501]

​@@TuckerGotteven PPG laser tag may be interesting

[@AzBob01]

As a non-flying watcher, I was wondering how it would affect you when you are below the top of the wash, your wing is above the top of the wash, and a gust of wind comes over the top of the wash. Would that affect your control at all?

[@hemanexclusive2094]

0:16 did you said local Kenyans?

[@FragCool]

I always think we paragliders look goofy at start, but paramotor beat us on the goofy scale by A LOT ;)

[@TuckerGott]

Yeah it's hard to look cool with a giant fan on your ass.

[@MrCaution1983]

Cascade County Sheriff-Coroner Jesse Slaughter has identified James Michael Bialczak, 40 years old, as the man who died in a paramotor accident last week. On December 12th, 2024, at around 3:40 p.m., deputies were sent to an address on Gerber Road southeast of Great Falls for a report of a man who died in a paramotor accident. Not a lot of info, besides this, but it happened near great falls Montana and since you tend to post educational lessons for these situations, I thought maybe you’d be able to gain more insight.

[@Vinzzzzent]

Shouldnt it be low density high altitude? Sorry not a native speaker just curious.

[@manifold1476]

Huh? Google it.

[@TuckerGott]

No, because the altitude is high. The air density is low but the density altitude is high. The higher the density altitude, the lower the air density.

[@Sloppyjoe4654]

Tucker, my dad recently bought a paramotor and finally flew yesterday. If there’s anything you want me to tell him please hmu🙏

[@turkeyphant]

If there's nil wind just taxi into a different direction away from the campers. Why do people find this hard.

[@TuckerGott]

Because some people are still new and don't have take offs mastered. It happens.

[@shanem5150]

Stay on target, and May the Schwartz be with you.

[@Kievlar]

Will it be nice if he and friends have a two-way radio with them, chatting while flying? No? Impractical because it'll be too loud?

[@ZachWhitehead]

Not too loud (we can hear him fine in the video) but annoying to set up because nobody makes good affordable headsets with the connections

[@tjjoseph333]

Daaaaaaaamn...what a start!

[@therz0n]

what time you usually fly?

[@TuckerGott]

Sunrise or sunset.

[@therz0n]

@@TuckerGott thanks

[@DarioushAryan]

bravoo

[@petervaughan3875]

Crocs are a terrible choice of footwear for any situation

[@dillonlapointe636]

Nah just gotta lock em down in 4x4, he took off with them in sport mode.

[@richard_builds_it]

Crocs weren’t in sport mode.

[@clutchitup8565]

Those campers are probavly pissed

[@TuckerGott]

The ones Matt buzzed? I think they understand.

[@CraigSmith568]

Oh George, not the livestock.

[@philochristos]

It would be a bummer to lose your shoes if you had to land somewhere and take off again.

[@charger8020]

Nice view of..... dirt

[@MrJdsenior]

OK, quit promoting the microburst and get to it! ;-)

[@TuckerGott]

Two more episodes! ;)

[@dr_harrington]

"High density altitude" ??????????????????

[@TuckerGott]

Yes. Low air density. High density altitude.

[@dr_harrington]

@@TuckerGott Ha! I should RTFM before posting. Never heard that before, and it sounds like an oxymoron.

[@Walt-w4f]

You guys are flying too close there near scaring me

[@lorenmars5244]

My man, not judging, but why do you never wear eye protection or sunglasses in flight? Seems like there'd be bugs. And birds! Use a visor. If you lose an eye, you lose the sky.

[@johnhartzler3089]

Crocs and paramotoring just doesn't sound like a great combo

[@modus_ponens]

Now those are some sketchy lines. No need to take that high risks for vids.

[@TuckerGott]

Why assume I am flying the way I fly for videos? You should see how I fly off camera. 😉

[@modus_ponens]

@@TuckerGott Haha, nice timing, your most recent video shows it well :D Calming to know you aren't pushing yourself on the uncomfortable zone with these maneuvers, and really enjoy it :)

[@Ricphil]

[@李b-w8q]

you need a better phone to shoot videos

[@sanavercrt3139]

The engine sound is very annoying... perhaps an electric motor would be better

[@MrUpscaleman]

Luke Skywalker did it better.
