Summers here!
Posted on July 16, 2013 in Phil Jennings
Well the British summer has arrived and this year with style. We have had a good few weeks of continuous hot days with great evening flying conditions. A few weeks back the Paramotor Party Boyz organised an impromptu fly in up near Nantwich so I had an excellent weekend of thermalling during the day on my Top 80, and slalom during the evening with the Polini 200.
Visit to the lakes!

Just returned from a week of flying my parajet Zenith in the Lake District. And was blessed with gorgeous weather wall to wall. The lakes are a great place for paragliding and paramotoring offering us the opportunity to take in the breath taking views.
Family time and factory days!

After our success last month in France it’s been a busy and varied couple of weeks with training, attending a foreign flying show, arranging future events and working in the Parajet factory!
Age is just a number!

We’ve been out flying and teaching a lot in the last several weeks with the weather treating us nicely here in Oregon. Lots of fun flights in different locations for myself and our students, but one flight this past Sunday has been truly amazing and memorable.
Podium finish in France!

Back in the UK now after a 12 day stint in France for the very well organised classic Open Competition and subsequent Slalomania 2013 round 1. Also on the trip were Parajet Team Pilots Phil Jennings and Ric Womersley and Sussex Paramotor, Parajet dealer Mark Morgan.
Longest Winter Ever!

At the beginning of December my girlfriend and I decided to renovate the house. Dang, talk about bitting off more than you can chew. Well after a few months of working long shifts on the house I was finally in a place to get out and go flying, that was about two months ago. Problem with that is the weather in Chicago was having no part of being done with cold, rain, snow and wind. So I waited, and waited, then the house flooded, and I waited some more. Check out the attached photos of flying over the floodwaters.
Great Result in French Nationals!

My fellow Parajet team pilots and I are currently out in France after competing in the French Open championship in Mondreville, South of Paris. Its been a hectic 4 days with near perfect flying conditions and a busy task schedule. I really look forward to coming out here every year as the competition is really tough and the French train lots, in fact most of the top pilots work 100 percent in the sport, so its almost like a smaller version of the World Championships.
Parajet triumphs at Boston
Posted on April 22, 2013 in Phil Jennings
I have just returned from an excellent but tiring weekend in Boston Lincolnshire where the British paramotor league was held. This is the first event of the season and a great warm up for the various Open competitions coming later this year.
