A Lady & Her Paramotor! Heidi Takes BlackHawk’s NEW 4-Stroke & Trike For a Flight!

Team Pilot Heidi Lee of BlackHawk takes a flight in the NEW 4-Stroke Banshee on our extremely durable Lite-Trike and had a blast! This NEW Trike has become extremely popular among customers around the world. Weighing in at around 30 lbs, it’s never been easier to add wheels to your Paramotor! We’ve made several upgrades to ensure the Lite-Trike is compatible with most Paramotors on the market today. It breaks down small enough to fit into the trunk of your car and can be fully assembled in minutes! The design is beautiful – featuring swept fiberglass rear suspension and a “raked Chopper-Style front end.” We’ve designed this trike to withstand the demands of Pilots, just like our ultra-tough Rhino Cage.

Paramotor Kiting Harness Review!

NOTE: The gun used in this video was not loaded and has no clip in it. Always check with your Paramotor Dealer or Powered Paragliding Instructor prior to kiting any Paraglider.

About BlackHawk Paramotor Kiting Harnesses: Paramotor Kiting Harnesses are one of the most recommended accessories for pilots to have. There are many different types of Kiting Harnesses on the market to choose from. BlackHawk’s Delux Kiting Harnesses are manufactured from the highest-quality materials, to exacting standards. We want to make sure your Kiting Harness lasts a lifetime. These harnesses were designed with comfort and functionality in mind. We have added additional padding (compared to most other harnesses on the market) where you need it the most – in the shoulder and leg straps. This will allow you to “kite” your glider for many hours in a comfortable and safe way. Weather you have purchased a Powered Paraglider or not, there are many reasons to have a Kiting Harness:

Why You Should Have a Kiting Harness: If you are one of the many people “saving up” to get into the sport of Powered Paragliding, you can get a head start on your skills NOW. We offer many instructional tools like DVD’s and The Powered Paragliding Bible to help guide beginners through their first steps. This does NOT replace the value of having a Certified Instructor work with you on your kiting skills, however, you can familiarize yourself with the controls and behavior of your glider prior to meeting your Instructor. If this is of interest to you, please contact BlackHawk and speak with a Powered Paragliding Expert. We can recommend the perfect Paraglider to suit your personal needs and send it to you with a Kiting Harness. This way, you can get closer to realizing your dream of personal flight!

Paragliding and Powered Paragliding are “perishable skills.” This means if you are not regularly practicing, you can get a little rusty on your skills and reaction time. Sometimes poor weather conditions or even a busy lifestyle can prevent pilots from flying for months at a time. We can’t stress how important is is to keep your ground-handling skills up-to-par. This isn’t just for personal safety… It can prevent you from having a failed launch or hard landing and damaging your Powered Paragliding equipment.

MANY pilots purchase a new type of Paraglider and start flying it right away. Every Paraglider is a little different in the way it responds to the pilot’s input. Especially if the pilot is going from a beginner-glider to an intermediate or advanced-glider. We recommend spending as much time as possible getting to know your new Paraglider before flying it. This means several hours or even days kiting the Paraglider in a variety of conditions. Again, this comes down to personal safety, which is paramount to BlackHawk.

Kiting with a motor on your back can get exhausting – especially if you are doing it for long periods of time. To maximize your time and effort, using a Kiting Harness from BlackHawk can greatly increase the amount of time you can physically practice. When students get tired, they may respond slower or start using “lazy-techniques.” If you are an Instructor (all Instructors should utilize Kiting Harnesses) you will want a harness that is comfortable to your student. If you haven’t used a BlackHawk Delux Kiting Harness, try one out! You will “feel” the difference right away!

Kiting Should be FUN: Practicing kiting a Paraglider is a wonderful way to get exercise! If you make an effort to kite in a variety of conditions, your skills as a pilot will increase exponentially! Try taking your glider to the beach on a low-wind day (3-5mph). Just remember to keep your glider out of the salt water and try not to drag it in the sand. If you live inland, take your Paraglider to your favorite park for some practice. If you go on vacation or travel, take advantage of kiting in new areas by taking your gear with you. The more you practice, the safer you will be!

Want a BlackHawk Kiting Harness? Let’s get you one! Just give BlackHawk a call at (209) 786-7899. We normally can ship your NEW Kiting Harness the same day you order it! You can get your harness fast and start improving your skills as a Paramotor Pilot today!

ULTIMATE Paraglider Review & Discussion Video

Recently, BlackHawk Paramotors USA Inc and Velocity Paragliders tried something different… A “discussion-style” video format, instead of the typical flying or “Tips & Tricks” videos. We received such a tremendous response from customers when our first discussion-style video was published. Our first video discussed Paramotor Quads and Trikes on the market. It can be found on our YouTube channel by clicking HERE. This next 2-part discussion-style video covers all the most frequently asked questions when it comes to Paragliders.

This is an extremely important topic. Selecting the proper glider depends on MANY factors including your body weight, style of flight, launching elevation, and more. In this video, Mike Robinson (Owner of BlackHawk Paramotors USA Inc) and Heidi Lee (Team Pilot & Sales Director) discuss a variety of glider topics in a straight-forward, no BS format. It doesn’t mater weather you are just discovering this sport and considering equipment, or have been flying for years… This video will provide valuable information to consider before you purchase your next glider. Velocity Paragliders USA offers gliders to suit the needs of all pilots and flying styles.

As always, our team is very open to customer suggestions. It is our goal to provide the pilots in this growing community with the information and gear they desire. If you have a suggestion for a discussion video or for our “Tips & Tricks” video series, please CONTACT US. Please remember to subscribe to our YouTube channel so you don’t miss out on future discussion videos.
