Paramotor Pilot Training—USPPA Syllabus

The USPPA Syllabus defines the standards and minimum training each pilot should have in order to be a successful and safe pilot.

Ground Handling

We start with the fun stuff — Kiting, which is the art of handling the glider. Then we move on to all the other ground maneuvers, creating the opportunity for safe equipment checks, launches, and landings

Ground School Education

Don’t underestimate the power of knowledge in Paramotors. Aviation Rules, Air Space, Airports & Traffic Patterns, Weather, Equipment, Places to Fly, Paramotor Community, Events & Fly-ins

Flying

Flying itself is by far the easiest part of becoming a Paramotor pilot. Regardless of what you watch on YouTube, we will cover many safety considerations you must know to be a safe pilot.

What people say about us

“Harley is simply the best powered paragliding instructor you can find in Bay Area. It took me 6 days of lessons with him to get confident with my wing and make my first flights. He is all about safety and he did fly PPG in all 50 states – so objectively he is the one of the most experienced people in the world. I would recommend him to anyone who wants to fly paramotors one day.”

Mikhail Alekseev
Paramotor Student

“Harley is awesome, he’s always down to help out/answer questions without judgement. He really is a “there’s no stupid question” type of guy. Super experienced pilot who dedicates 99% of his time to bettering the sport. 100% recommend.”

Reginaldinatoron
Paramotor Student

“trained elsewhere and didn’t feel adequately prepared. Harley trained me one on one for 5 additional flights sessions. He knows what he’s doing. You’re in good hands. Good luck!”

“Yes, I know Harley well. He’s a great guy, very nice, and a very qualified instructor. His approach is very much to turn you into a pilot, not just a dude with a paramotor — besides making sure you can fly your wing, he makes sure you understand airspace rules, weather, airport operations, etc. His approach might be considered slightly conservative compared to other instructors in that he makes sure you walk before you try to run”
