Paramotor Training
Training in all areas necessary to start your powered paragliding hobby and get you flying safely for years to come!
Ground Handling
To maximize your success in paramotoring, prioritizing your ground handling skills is essential. Keeping your kiting skills sharp not only enhances your flying experience, but also improves launch safety and extends the lifespan of your gear. At Sky Hikers, we place a strong emphasis on developing and maintaining excellent ground control.
Launching and Landing
The hardest part of paramotoring is the ground, making launching and landing the most important part of learning to fly. Sky Hikers' approach to flight training simplifies the process by breaking it down into manageable steps and emphasizing repetition to establish safe habits right from the start.
Equipment and Motor Maitenance
Paramotoring equipment is crucial for safety and should be treated with the utmost care. Good habits learned at Sky Hikers can improve the longevity of your gear, save you money, and reduce frustration. Our training covers important topics such as motor maintenance, preventative care, and carburetor cleaning.

Safety in this sport can not be over emphasized. Yes, this sport has risks, but with proper training the risks can be minimized and mitigated quite well. At Sky Hikers, teaching safety is one of the main focuses. Safe launching, safe landing, safe flying, safe progression, safe gear, safe decision making.
