As a parent of adult children, I can tell you that you have awesome parents to be proud of. Patient, too. They, no doubt, are proud of you! Incredibly great video.
Congratulations brother on the mustache. It really matches your eye brows ; ) Oh yea, and the Paragliding too! It's so calm and quiet, and to view from above where you used to free range is really a fantastic experience.
Cool mustache dude! Great free flight. I want to do that off mountain close to me. I’m a novice level, but one day! Thank you for sharing. Enjoyed watching!
Great video Mark! Love your Paramotor stuff but this free flight vid rocks. So cool to hear your excitement. Looks bad ass to me. Hoping like hell to do both soon myself. Cheers man. 🍻
I learned free flight on my 28m edge. First ridge flight over 1 hour was on that edge. It just sits in a bag now and only comes out for test flights or harsh days. Very forgiving tank it is. Awesome flights man :)
Now your paragliding, and you have a place here to do it, gees man, iv been flying around here in fayetteville all alone and haven't paraglider since alaska, scoop me up man!!
Mark, What a great video, I have always wanted to learn that too, but live in Western New York and can't find anyone or anywhere to learn.... :-( Glad to see you are having so much fun!
Brian Stayton I've been looking into locations in the area but there's not really large enough hills. I think the best bet is going to be to go to pennaslyvaina where they have 4000 ft mountains instead of 400 foot hills!
This comment is not for mark but for the commentators calling it Para-motor of which this is not, there is no motor of which means this is paragliding and mark did just that! Mark : Cool Spot, you might get more lift over the ridge , Thanks for the vid with Cool Views!!
I think the felt you got was mainly due to thermals and not due to the wind. Maybe you could have started doing full circles once you were over the ridge. This way you could have possibly gone all the way to cloudbase :)
Mark you got a little sumtin on your lip there, maybe jelly or sumptin from lunch. Ride those thermals, you should get a Vario audio altimeter. I found schematics to make one using an Arduino (a small but powerful micro processor) and I have about half a dozen of them lying around. Gonna give it a shot. Of course it’ll work, trust me. I’m an engineer :). That paraglide looks so peaceful, rock on!
If you don’t mind answering, what wind speed do you need to sustain altitude at launch (like early in the video where you’re staying just level with launch)? Also, how much wind speed was there for you to gain the big altitude you did toward the middle/end of the video?
Be careful. Free flight might be more addicting than crack. That was cool that your parents gave you shuttle. Were those mosquitos on the launch ramp? Oh and BTW ITS MUSTACHE MAY!!!!!!! NICE STACHE!
Hey Mark! I just subscribed to your channel a bit ago and really enjoy your video adventures. I was wondering when you got into this and what got you interested in paramotoring?
That's sweet! I'm going out to Wisconsin to get training from High5 PPG in a couple days. I'm really looking forward to joining the sport. What caused you to settle on this sport vs other flying opportunities?
Beautiful view. What wing are you flying? I'm thinking my first wing will be a Mojo PWR. Research shows it to pretty much be the best wing. Period. For a training/beginner/slow fly intermediate.
That looked awesome. Could you explain the setup for free flying vs powered for us newbies. I plan on PPG training but I have buddies who are into Free flying. I’d love to join them too at some point in the future once I’m competent enough at powered flying. Do I need a different harness/reserve setup. are the wings compatible ? Thanks for all your vids so far. Very informative. :-)
You have probably gotten this question answered but there are wings advertised to do both such at the Dudek Universal. You do need a different harness. If you use a front mount reserve then you can use it for both PG and PPG.
Im already a pilot but I really want to start paragliding exactly like this, just going to the top of a mountain and soaring down. I was wondering if you had any recommendations on good beginner wings, or good places to buy them?
I would like to thank my biggest supporters and chauffeurs - Mom and Dad. Thanks :)
What state is this ?
Awesome. And this is your first time?
I know this tingling excitement you speak of.
As a parent of adult children, I can tell you that you have awesome parents to be proud of. Patient, too. They, no doubt, are proud of you!
Incredibly great video.
I’m thinking of growing a mustache too. Women currently find me too attractive. :)
YOU ( WoodysGamertag ) would look better then the JAIL BIRD Mark Huneycutt vialed attempt at it ,,,HAHAHAH. Just joking Mark.
Do it! Lets make Mustaches great again! MMGA!
It's just your charisma 😂
I only got 5 seconds into the video before needing to read the comments! Haha poor HuneyMonster
bearded woody is the most savage woody
The things you learn when you watch your child's youtube channel....true confessions at the end ;)
Julie H hi marks mom
You've done alright. He's a popular kid.
LOL... busted dude. :)
He is a rolemodel ......for someone lol good guy.
That feeling you get riding the lift and soaring above launch!! Freakin-A!!! Congratulations Mark, keep the videos coming!
That was a great flashback video of earlier days...thanks for sharing your life with us!
Mark you need to be careful in those woods Caterpillar fell on your upper lip. 🤣
Fierceflyer55 lmao😂
Dude that looked so smooth and tranquil without the paramotor noise. Looks like a great spot to glide at!
Congratulations brother on the mustache. It really matches your eye brows ; ) Oh yea, and the Paragliding too! It's so calm and quiet, and to view from above where you used to free range is really a fantastic experience.
Sweet launch spot. Loved you in Super Troopers.
you're a very humble dude from what i can tell
Epic Location and first unpowered flight. Awesome video!
Just started paragliding, had my first few flights the other day, awesome feeling! Looking forward to more of this!
Can you share some websides where can i learn how to do this. I am really interested in paragliding from hill
Awesome video, Mark. Can't wait to see ya in Oklahoma!
Great vid Mark...good job my trusty roadster 2 doubles up as freeflight too lol..wish we had terrain like that around this way though!!...😉🖒
I'm just now seeing this one! My first wing was a 25m Edge! Good stuff Mark!
The Green Beast lives!!! Very nice brother and obviously so tranquil. Love it!
ABSOLUTE TOTALLY INCREDIBLE EXPERIENCE JUST WATCHING
Beautiful and so quiet. Another great vid
Now that is awesome by miles Mark. I love my Edge Wing. I will have to try that sometime soon. Keep The Wing Up.
Cool mustache dude! Great free flight. I want to do that off mountain close to me. I’m a novice level, but one day! Thank you for sharing. Enjoyed watching!
Nice! So peaceful up there. Nice stache man
That was amazing! So peaceful up there!
Great video Mark! Love your Paramotor stuff but this free flight vid rocks. So cool to hear your excitement. Looks bad ass to me. Hoping like hell to do both soon myself. Cheers man. 🍻
Congrats brotha!
Great video as always. Keep up the good work
I learned free flight on my 28m edge. First ridge flight over 1 hour was on that edge. It just sits in a bag now and only comes out for test flights or harsh days. Very forgiving tank it is. Awesome flights man :)
Damn if it’s the last thing I do I have to try this ! I just have to ! Thanks for sharing! Peace from Welland Ontario Canada 🇨🇦
So sweet! I can't wait to get my first free flight in.
Best video yet even with the stache
Now your paragliding, and you have a place here to do it, gees man, iv been flying around here in fayetteville all alone and haven't paraglider since alaska, scoop me up man!!
Mark, What a great video, I have always wanted to learn that too, but live in Western New York and can't find anyone or anywhere to learn.... :-( Glad to see you are having so much fun!
I'm also a WNY native. We have plenty of free flight spots if you know where to look, especially in the finger lakes area
Dude, that looks awesome! I want to free fly now. Looks like something is in your wing at 08:44 Nice GTA plate steal too, BALLZ! Great video buddy!
Marc Amenson thanks! May just be my patched hole?
Ha! I remember watching this video before I ever flew. Still great to watch!
Awesome video!!! Looking forward to more of that. Hopefully woody grows a mustache and goes paragliding with you!
Nice video Mark. I love flight of anysort so I shall stay tuned:)
Diggin the Stash Mark! Go handlebars or twist! Of course "FuManChu" always gets a reaction. Happy flyin.
Bruh been wanting to paraglide for years and watching your beginning made me start first steps to actually going for it
awwesome!
Great share , thanks
Awesome vid and experience. congrats.
Wow! Over 50K followers. Good for you.
Awesome landings. You’re not the only one the harness catches down low 😂
Loved it Mark, Thanks again.
Wow I really wanna do that now! Not sure where to in NJ though
Judson Graham yo whats up im a skydiver but would love to try this.is it possible to parafly in nj?
Brian Stayton I've been looking into locations in the area but there's not really large enough hills. I think the best bet is going to be to go to pennaslyvaina where they have 4000 ft mountains instead of 400 foot hills!
There seems to be a caterpillar stuck to your lip Mark.🤣
Buying one for Christmas!
This comment is not for mark but for the commentators calling it Para-motor of which this is not, there is no motor of which means this is paragliding and mark did just that!

Looks amazing
Blue Alpha Gear you look amazing
Mark Huneycutt 😘
Your pinned message>>>> Well done.!!!!! :)
Where are all these beautiful sites and idyllic conditions?!
Great video thanks for upload
This looks so fun omg!!
2nd time was good, nice man.you happy
If you don’t mind answering, what wind speed do you need to sustain altitude at launch (like early in the video where you’re staying just level with launch)? Also, how much wind speed was there for you to gain the big altitude you did toward the middle/end of the video?
This was great. I want to do a sled ride sooo bad
Wow that is great Mark. Did you get any instruction on that or self train?
Mr C no instruction yet
That was great, you've inspired me to dig out my ozone buzz and try some free flight :)
Totally inspired!
Be careful. Free flight might be more addicting than crack. That was cool that your parents gave you shuttle. Were those mosquitos on the launch ramp? Oh and BTW ITS MUSTACHE MAY!!!!!!! NICE STACHE!
Robert Michiels I'm addicted! Flies. Oh and mustache got shaved today
I was listning to a podcast from Cloud base Mayhem that used the term Sky crack!
Hey Mark!
I just subscribed to your channel a bit ago and really enjoy your video adventures. I was wondering when you got into this and what got you interested in paramotoring?
Ben Stang I dove into paramotoring 2 years ago. I love flying and somehow I just settled in this sport
That's sweet!
I'm going out to Wisconsin to get training from High5 PPG in a couple days. I'm really looking forward to joining the sport. What caused you to settle on this sport vs other flying opportunities?
That's so crazy without a motor. Can't imagine.
Sporting a rather splendid tash like that and you had the nerve to give Woody a hard time over the rollerblades?
Harsh :)
xxx
Ah the proverbial “House” thermal!
Get it!!
Man I can't wait to put mine in the air. Jus5 waiting on my reserve shoot.. BTW, where is that at, Pennsylvania?
Is that the same wing you used for paramotoring? if so did you have to add weight?
Love that shout out when you first took off. Sounds like puberty!! Lol
Great vid! 👍🏼
You need a vario man, to find the lift?
Whats up woth the super troopers mustache 😂.. didn't know people still like that style
AMAZING!! You’ve made my final decision, I’m buying a paraglider
Omg this was so dope!!
Almost too much fun
Awsome man, see you a work lol.
Cj 303 see you in 52 mins
Awesome, what do you prefer. Power or free flight???
hostessman hard to say since I just started. We will find out with more flying
Beautiful view. What wing are you flying? I'm thinking my first wing will be a Mojo PWR. Research shows it to pretty much be the best wing. Period. For a training/beginner/slow fly intermediate.
That was a Velocity Edge.
yeah buddy
Awesome!
Nice video, Where is this spot?
So cool....

Nice............I so wanna do that!
Do you have a place in NC
@@jimkeys4758 no
Beautiful video, beautiful countryside. I'm a new subscriber, is the setting NC?
yes. thanks for subscribing
Nice ride
So cool! What state is this?
North Carolina
Sweet!
"this west side is a lift city... Oh man it's the sink city right here, let's go to the lift city again" hahaha
The porn stache is coming back! Magnum PI got nothin on you Boss. Great video. Looking forward to seeing some more free flying
This really makes me want a free flight harness.. Was this your first time free flying or no?
Josh Sturges 2nd time
now you see the light ;-)
Im already a pilot but I really want to start paragliding exactly like this, just going to the top of a mountain and soaring down. I was wondering if you had any recommendations on good beginner wings, or good places to buy them?
Buzz Z5 has been a great free flight wing for me. I recommend it. You can buy it from free flight schools in the USA or order from Ozone paragliders.
@@MarkHuneycutt Thanks!
So where are you? If you are free flying now, you are going to have to ingest massive amounts of Kyle-O weather videos :)
how do you know that you could make it to that bottom field
Yo whats up do u have to launch from a mountain?
What were all the bugs? Mosquitoes?
3SEVEN80 flies
What size mountains are you launching from?
3500'
