What inspired you to start paramotoring?

I first saw Bear Grylls and Gilo do their paramotor flight over Everest and from then on paid attention to it as an adventure aviation sport. It always appealed to me as it look mad and a lot of fun.

Most memorable flight?

Flying over the city of Acra in Israel and over the hill of Armageddon.

Most desirable flight location or adventure, not yet experienced?

I think Wadi Rum in Jordan looks amazing and is high on my list.

Most notable accomplishments over the past few years?

As an adverturist, my accomplishments extend beyond paramotoring. I love taking on adventures to see the world in a different way. Some of these include:
  • Successfully rowed across the Pacific Ocean in July 2023
  • Peaked the tallest mountain on the planet, Mauna Kea in Hawaii
  • Discovered a number of shipwrecks scuba diving, including the MV Dara, The Satil and a Barge in Pearl Harbor
  • Raced the worlds fastest powerboat, The Victory Team XCAT

What do you most enjoy about paramotoring?

I love the unique way to have an adventure from the air and discover landscapes from above. The comradery and storytelling follows that.

How has paramotoring changed your life?

It’s certainly made my morning wake up calls earlier. I feel so much more alive when I fly and I’ve met some amazing people.
