Damn! So much adrenaline just from watching you. I'm adding flying a Mustache on my bucket list. Last time I flew was 30 years ago (still with a wooden seat harness). I had one of the most advanced gliders. Not the most stable, but so much fun. You have awoken a sleeping spirit within me dude!
Been dying for the last 3 days for this video, and y’all absolutely stomped it! That looked like such a rush, this type of speed flying is what I’ve been waiting for! Keep it up and fly safe🤙
SIIIIIIICKKKKKKK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That was one of your most exhilarating videos in a while, and that's not to say your other videos aren't exhilarating. I'm a PPG and PG pilot, and a Kitesurfer so and I can't wait to try this new wing! It looks ridiculously fun.
That just looked crazy fast, and your rate of climb seemed insane! You would almost have to assume that same technology would make it's way to the paramotor world, especially now that you have put it out there on this video. Great stuff, and Utah is awesome!
Revolutionary rigging, seems so obvious once you see it. It will spread to all applications, fast, simplifying what was already simple flying. Great video, great enthusiasm, THANKS!
100% have been checking every few hours for this video to drop!! Didn’t disappoint!! Judson’s too. Absolutely phenomenal flying!! Dude your swooping skills are on point!! Kinda like That feeling you get from swooping the pond after an amazing jump but you can do it over and over and over. No waiting. You guys nailed it!! 👍🏽👍🏽
Awesome video! thanks for taking one for the team and riskin' it for the biscuit! I have been waiting to watch this. Beautiful job on sharing your thoughts and experience.
I knew this was going to be epic and it didn't disappoint. That looked like a hell of a lot of fun and the rush of rushes. Glad things worked out for you guys. Keep up the awesomeness and fly safe.
I really hope flare comes around to the motor community. I’ve been begging them as well and received the same response. They really don’t realize the market they are missing in the slalom discipline.
as some one who wants to get in to paramotoring i hope by the time i save the money for it this is out as a proper paramotor wing only having to focus on a single set of controls sounds like it will be far easier for someone starting new. as a farmer it would be a cool refreshing way to go around the farm and do my checks.
I've been a skydiver for 18 years with over 14 000 jumps. I was never careless nor have done base jumping. But you are a darevil for your viewers... and its fun to watch. I just hope that you won't go too far one of these days. Keep the blue side up!

WoW guys those wings are next level. The speed is just scary. You're either very brave or stoopid not made my mind up yet haha. Fly safe, take care GOD Bless you and yours. M
So how much break would you need to pull to hold level flight on an Atom 80? I like the idea of full speed integration in the most simple input possible but I feel like it needs a way to adjust the minimum break pull like a trim-like control on the break line pully so you don't have to use constant muscle tension to keep from going full blast. But excited to see where the tech goes.
Agree, an adjustable throttle to the wing would be great - done right could be a great cross country wing for changing wind conditions to punch through.
I have recently came back to your content after a while of being subbed, yt just stopped recommending your content and I almost forgot about your videos since the McDonalds flight which is what got me to subscribe, but I think its awesome to see all the new things you have been trying in aeronautics. Keep it up man!
I live on the other side of the valley from the park in Draper where everyone jumps from. I'd love to see Tucker spending more time here. We've already got a pretty solid lineup of TH-camrs here... but there's always room for one more!
I'm doing a paragliding "discovery" course for my 16th next year (not a tandem). (If my mom let's me) I loved your paragliding videos! They're fun to watch
had to wait a day to process this video before commenting. Wanted to see Judson's reaction also before I even wrote anything. Now that that's said and done I have to admit. I had a feeling this was gonna be some epic ish when announced.. AND IT WAS. I'm a huge fan of the Flare Moustache. Really enjoyed the insight and different POVs on both the wing and brake system from you guys. Risky Biscuits indeed. 😃
I just love seeing this wing fly! Maybe this one is too speed oriented for me but I am still excited for this tech to develop. I bet in the next few years we'll see wings with a similar system but intended more for efficient paragliding or paramotoring, rather than downhill speed. But still faster than what we're used to. This is how things went in the kite world. The first kites with mixer systems likes this were meant to be race winners, but they are better in many other ways too. When I fly an older kite with direct paraglider-style brakes now, it feels like I'm flying a plane that has no control surfaces except flaps. I know kites are different... but I am excited to see where it all leads. Thanks for the video!
@@niconico3907 Yeah! Funny though... I think this was introduced to the kite world by Flysurfer, a subcompany of the paraglider maker Skywalk. I had the Flysurfer Speed back in the day, and that was also revolutionary at the time. And I guess Flare is a child of those same companies.
Paid on Oct 11, Shipping label created in Germany 18th, Shipped 19th At door in Wisconsin 20th Thought the stash would not be much different than full speed bar but it is so much faster. Next 3 days are forecast to be Lake Michigan soarable. If not, I'm bringing the motor. Thanks!
Tucker, I have been watching all your stuff for the past couple months (in New Zealand here) and I can't wait to afford a setup and get training - hopefully one day! In the mean time, watching clips like this have me buzzing :) Oh If you have the chance - I would love to have some numbers (i.e. speed that you hit on the Mustache!) :) Happy Flying!
so you can buy a normal paraglinding wing and if you want to buy a motor, you can just add it to it and it will be fine no? also for flying with another person, does the wing have to be for two (bigger) or it doesen't matter? (noob on this so, trying to get as much info as I can)
Now that's what I'm talking about bro. I am so glad I never bothered to learn the old system. I commend y'all on your level of caution taken here. I am beyond excited to learn to fly a mustache.
Bro, that motor was screaming! I see the issue here Tucker..... the stash needs a comeback. Judson looked fully prepared for this Mustache ride! Insta sponsor lol.
i find it funny that this is just now comming in to gliders,in foil kites this type of riser is been in use for over 10 years.it gives the kites a way bigger wind window of usefull flight and much more controle in power when being used in kite buggys or on foil board.
@@E620SE then it stil took a long time to use this in paragliding.just looked it up and the first mas produced kites with this system where availeble from 03 ,so nearly 20 years ago..but stil cool it is comming into this sport.
@@E620SE i know its not a kite,but most kites are developed bij people who also make paragliders and parachutes so thats why it seems od it did not come into this sport bevore.
Yup! The brakes only engage at the very bottom of the speed range. So the airfoil remains undistorted and the turning is primarily done by differential trimming.
Dang! Looks absolutely amazing! One day I’ll get in the sky!!! Next time you’re in Twin Falls, let me know and chiropractor visits are on me! My office is very close to the bridge.
Come out to Elko Nevada you're only a couple hours away from SLC, beautiful spot called Lamoille Canyon that looks perfect for flying through. Wish I had one of those bad boys.
Never flown a paramotor but I've flown many paragliders and speed wings. I recently had the pleasure of trying a 18m moustache. This technology will change all paragliding and motoring. The fact that they have released a new glider called the Flare LINE. It comes in sizes down 8m!
I am DYING to know what kind of airspeed you can get with that wing on something like a Scout, with a variable pitch prop. I wonder if you could get a legit 55kts out of a relatively low engine power.
That was insane and worth the wait! Does it take much pressure to hold the wing at a greater angle of attack if you did want to fly at a slower speed? Cheers from Matty H!
I just called it that's it in you Mr video two weeks ago, where I said it must be like a formula 1experiance,so it was fun to hear you say the same thing...looks so dang cool
Hey Tucker! Thx for a fabulous video and review. What size suits best for paramotoring? You didn't mention the size of the one used in the video. Would size 18 be too small? I weigh 180 lbs. Best regards.
One couldn't wipe the glorious smile off your face. You sent it and the wing really got you !! It looked beautiful in the air and bloody hell, you were fast. "And you didn't die." I think for lads like you and Justin to test this and give them a go, is the best way to start serious testing. Now, I think you need to talk to Moustache and get a wing, properly set up as a paramotor wing and do some Empirical testing. What a blast, what a way to go. Excellent Tucker. Fantastic mate.
That was truely staggering to watch! I couldn’t get over the fact there was no wing tip tucks and instability at all angles of flight, even when rocketing down towards the ground. Wow! Can you also give us an idea what g loading were you getting up to? You said it was a real workout so I assume more than normal.
Holy shit man. You REALLY showed off your piloting abilities in this one. GOOD FUCKING SHIT. Edit: I feel your happiness man. I'm going to feel the same thing when I can finally afford a setup and training; I can't wait to achieve you level of skill years and years down the road, and fly one of the stache-y bois full tilt.
Holy CRAPPER! That thing HAULS ASS!! Watching you fly that 15 on my 27" iMac in 2160p, I got the same sensation of actually flying - that stomach-butterfly feeling when you lose altitude really fast! That was friggin' GREAT!! I can only imagine what that must be like in person! Mach Jesus indeed! LOL! Loved the climb rate, too! SICK!! Would be interesting to see the numbers on that 15 as far as climb rate, top speed, and fuel burn. I'd wager ALL of those parameters will be off the charts, HAHAHAHA! SWEEEEEEEET!! 🤘😬🤘
Watching this reminds me of the first time I rode a YZ250 two-stroke motocross bike after doing most of my riding on dual-sports and adventure/sport tourers; extremely high strung, beats you up, and leaves your hands shaking afterwards but really fun (in short burts)!
Would one of the larger sizes be what you would cross country race on if you did that again? I loved watching that series. I live in North eastern Nevada so I got all pumped up when you flew through areas I daily visit.
im keen to learn how to paraglide once my back heals from a motorcycle accident where a truck pulled out in front of me and i broke my back and my shoulder, i will want to upgrade to a motor licence but its expencive i think at first learning how to paraglide will be more obtainable its like $2200 here in aus
@@FreshTillDeath56 most of the danger from motorcycles is getting hit by something or hitting into something, i’m pretty sure it’s easier to avoid drunk drivers and cars in the sky.
@@libertyforamericanow I have flown them for the last 6 years 😄 Don't get me wrong, I love paramotors, I've had so much fun with mine and had some amazing experiences but I think I still prefer fast motorbikes
Maxed out command authority is damn nice when you first get your hands on it. Like learning to drive on a 30 year old truck with loosey-goosey steering and a suspect suspension and testing out a F1 race car.
dude you rock that thing. It looks to be intoxicating, full of adrenaline which makes it potentially dangerous. I dont know if I have enough self control to do this hobby. I ride sportbikes like a hooligan but I really want to try this paramotoring
Im thinking about getting into paramotors next year, does anyone knows if Tucker has any videos explaining how to check used equipment? i cant afford a new set of equipment and im already going to spend a lot on the flight school so i will have to use second hand stuff and i want to know what to check and etc
I’m a new paramotor pilot myself I would not recommend buying used myself You might be able to save a couple thousand dollars but you have to ask yourself is it worth it I don’t think it is if you can’t afford it now maybe wait to save up so you can buy all new equip
I’ve been flying for 3 years now. I’ve personally bought two moters from Creg’s list. Best thing you can do is find low hour, popular brands like scout, parajet, or mini plane. I do agree with others, please don’t cheap out on equipment. You’ll end up spending more on repairs I promise you. These two stroke engines are not lasting. My MY20 exhaust just broke and now I’m out 250$
I'd be interested in seeing if the extra loading on the upper control and cascade line attach points on the wing show any signs of premature wear or irregular stretching. The only reason I wonder is the guys at Mustache seem really hesitant about motoring their wings, like they didn't design in the loads that PPG's can put on the wing or something.
Wow!! I built my own plane (N36LV) that had 370 HP and could climb in excess of 3500 fpm. That horizon aspect change rate looked pretty familiar!! Very impressive.
15 looks (and sounds) like a speedglider not as a regular paraglider. I think that cause of pretty high wingload (which it is not intended for btw, that could be seen as swoops are somewhat shorter for that speed that could be; of course that is only my feeling from watching such a cool video).
Now that looks fun. I been wanting to do this since the 80s, Yeah I'm old, and I'm disabled, but I have always wanted to get a old drop tank from military airplane. And build a trike out of it , yes I know that I can purchase a new Paraglider. But those are way out of my budget. But Thanks again for a great time. Ps, what is funny is I have been flying quads since 2014 and there was a group of guys who had a TH-cam channel Rotor/Riot, you probably heard of them but this one guy had a Mustache like the one in the wing.thanks again
Not gonna lie, I had serious second hand adrenaline rush watching this. DAYUM that thing is FAST! Tucker, thanks for the amazing content / experience!

So how much break would you need to pull to hold level flight on an Atom 80?

Would be interesting to see the numbers on that 15 as far as climb rate, top speed, and fuel burn. I'd wager ALL of those parameters will be off the charts, HAHAHAHA! SWEEEEEEEET!!
🤘😬🤘
Watching this reminds me of the first time I rode a YZ250 two-stroke motocross bike after doing most of my riding on dual-sports and adventure/sport tourers; extremely high strung, beats you up, and leaves your hands shaking afterwards but really fun (in short burts)!
Didn't disapoint Tucker awesome 👏
Would one of the larger sizes be what you would cross country race on if you did that again? I loved watching that series. I live in North eastern Nevada so I got all pumped up when you flew through areas I daily visit.
Awesome!! Not my "cup of tea" but getting to see you fly it was exciting enough.
Speed flying could become a racing sport, with a pit crew you could fly for hours around a racecourse (like out at The Monuments out west).
Damned satisfying ride-along Tucker...tks.
im keen to learn how to paraglide once my back heals from a motorcycle accident where a truck pulled out in front of me and i broke my back and my shoulder, i will want to upgrade to a motor licence but its expencive i think at first learning how to paraglide will be more obtainable its like $2200 here in aus
Brutal. Motorcycles are dangerous, and so are paramotors, but it's not nearly the same kind of danger.
@@FreshTillDeath56 most of the danger from motorcycles is getting hit by something or hitting into something, i’m pretty sure it’s easier to avoid drunk drivers and cars in the sky.
@@FreshTillDeath56 yeah but motorbikes are more fun 😁
@@mark675 you cant say that till youve flown one
@@libertyforamericanow I have flown them for the last 6 years 😄
Don't get me wrong, I love paramotors, I've had so much fun with mine and had some amazing experiences but I think I still prefer fast motorbikes
Tucker, if you use this wing on that race you participated, would you got to the end quicker?
One does wonder what Leonardo DaVinci would think if he saw you dudes now. Simply amazing! Wondering where it will go.
Dude… watching your videos you normally don’t look like you’re going particularly fast. This thing looked REALLY FAST!! 😂😂
Maxed out command authority is damn nice when you first get your hands on it. Like learning to drive on a 30 year old truck with loosey-goosey steering and a suspect suspension and testing out a F1 race car.
You are the world best, greatings from Xingo Berlin Germany.
dude you rock that thing. It looks to be intoxicating, full of adrenaline which makes it potentially dangerous. I dont know if I have enough self control to do this hobby. I ride sportbikes like a hooligan but I really want to try this paramotoring
Oh My God... that speed is insane!
Looks fun, you'll have to get Flare to change their manual. It's says "The FLARE MOUSTACHE may not be flown with a motor"
Im thinking about getting into paramotors next year, does anyone knows if Tucker has any videos explaining how to check used equipment? i cant afford a new set of equipment and im already going to spend a lot on the flight school so i will have to use second hand stuff and i want to know what to check and etc
I’m a new paramotor pilot myself I would not recommend buying used myself You might be able to save a couple thousand dollars but you have to ask yourself is it worth it I don’t think it is if you can’t afford it now maybe wait to save up so you can buy all new equip
I’ve been flying for 3 years now. I’ve personally bought two moters from Creg’s list. Best thing you can do is find low hour, popular brands like scout, parajet, or mini plane. I do agree with others, please don’t cheap out on equipment. You’ll end up spending more on repairs I promise you. These two stroke engines are not lasting. My MY20 exhaust just broke and now I’m out 250$
I'd be interested in seeing if the extra loading on the upper control and cascade line attach points on the wing show any signs of premature wear or irregular stretching. The only reason I wonder is the guys at Mustache seem really hesitant about motoring their wings, like they didn't design in the loads that PPG's can put on the wing or something.
it's build more robust than most paragliders...
Is it a Wing you would use for the Icarus Races?
Wow!! I built my own plane (N36LV) that had 370 HP and could climb in excess of 3500 fpm. That horizon aspect change rate looked pretty familiar!! Very impressive.
Outrageous, loved it. 👍
15 looks (and sounds) like a speedglider not as a regular paraglider. I think that cause of pretty high wingload (which it is not intended for btw, that could be seen as swoops are somewhat shorter for that speed that could be; of course that is only my feeling from watching such a cool video).
Very impressive flying
Now that looks fun. I been wanting to do this since the 80s, Yeah I'm old, and I'm disabled, but I have always wanted to get a old drop tank from military airplane. And build a trike out of it , yes I know that I can purchase a new Paraglider. But those are way out of my budget. But Thanks again for a great time. Ps, what is funny is I have been flying quads since 2014 and there was a group of guys who had a TH-cam channel Rotor/Riot, you probably heard of them but this one guy had a Mustache like the one in the wing.thanks again
