”PPG – touching the water”


Strolling along the water edge I heard a familiar sound. A paramotor idling. Preparing for launch. Another man carried the glider. I helped opening the glider in a U-form. The pilot had no helmet and no shoes. The gasoline tank was almost empty – 1 to 2 liters of fuel – the rest was air.

The pilot had no helmet and no shoes and made ready for a forward launch. Full speed and running. He was airborne where the waves met the beach.

Some stunt flying touching the water with his feet. One time the propeller hit the water. A sharp BANG! Mai pen rai – no problem. At least not today…

Two short videos of the launch and the flying over the water.
