What inspired you to start paramotoring?

To fly and explore the French alps even in winter. I immediately wanted to see what was possible. First my brother and I tested out pulling a wakeboarder behind a paramotor and then we broke a world altitude record.

Flying across the Maldives from North to South!Greenland is up there with the most memorable!

Japan/Thailand/Australia (Morning glory cloud)

Most notable accomplishments over the past few years?

Flying with my twin brother from Val Thorens to a remote refuge near Briancon with the snow trike, last year. Flying in the Bahamas on a remote chain of sand bars and Islands. I also built a fan boat with the Maverick and tested it out on lake Annecy!

What do you most enjoy about paramotoring?

The freedom and ease to travel and explore from above

How has paramotoring changed your life?

It’s definitely become a major part of my life and without my motor it’s like missing an arm. I end up always searching and finding fields or places that would be great to fly from.

What advice would you give to someone looking to start paramotoring?

Get good instruction, don’t rush it and choose Parajet with a Vittorazi engine!

What’s the most unexpected or funny experience you’ve had while paramotoring?

My client accidentally dropped my GoPro from 500m over Val Thorens. I watched it fall all the way to the snow, saw approximately where it was and later went to try to find it. After 10min of zig zagging the slope I found a hole and 30cm down was my gopro! It had melted its way down since it was recording.

Why Parajet?

By far the best machines out there! Born from adventure where beauty matches functionality.
