Paramotors are incredible flying machines. They are a open air backpack performance engine and prop that you can easily transport and fly just about anywhere. In Canada, we have to have an special ultralight pilot's license but in the US, you don't need any form of license at all to fly these amazing machines.
If you have ever thought about flying, these are the most affordable and fun way to fly and they are very affordable. I fly a Canadian made Kangook Amaruk, and its a lightweight, powerful machine that is easily to breakdown for compact transport and I've flown in a lot of different places already with it in the last few years. I fly over 100 flights a year, and I've enjoying flying from about 20 different locations. Lots at home, some at local airports, friend's places, country side gravels roads, ditches or whatever has enough room for a takeoff and landing.
Anyway, this machine is about 56lbs + fuel so very easy to carry and move around on your back.
Then once you run into the sky, you get to see sunsets from a whole new perspective, like this one with these awesome evening shadows. Nothing like it, certainly better than a motorbike (I've had them too) and around the same cost new. I highly recommend you looking into buying a Kangook if these interest you at all!
Here's a short video clip of some of the advantages I found upgrading to the latest Kangook Amaruk frame.
