Locked in the back of Daniel Jones' van at Bore Chasers we managed to squeeze out a podcast about paramotor competitions.

Daniel Jones is both the the co-host and the guest as he talks about his 7 day flight from John O'Groats to Land's End (the length of the UK mainland) for Alzheimer's Research. We discover a few previously unknown secrets about Daniel Jones.

Shaun and Dan get into the statistics involving the safety of paramotoring

This week Shaun and Dan talk to Anthony Vella about the differences between flying in the UK compared to the US. Anthony, being as lucky as he is, lives in El Paso, Texas. Abundant with desert to roam and no airspace for miles and miles to stop his adventures. A paramotor playground most would be jealous of. Anthony tells us why he chose paramotoring (or did it choose him? Destiny maybe?) and his favourite flying style, amongst other stories. Check out the episode for more.

In this weeks episode of the Fat Paramotor Podcast Shaun (FPG) and Daniel Jones talk about their experiences with purchasing paramotors and discuss options available for the first time buyer. Which motor is right for you?
