SOLD Dudek Universal $1000

Image
 Make: Dudek Model: Universal Size: 23m Color: Orange, Red, Yellow, Black EN Rating: EN-B (Intermediate) Condition: Used, but very good! Price: $1000 Shipping: INCLUDED Status: SOLD CLICK HERE to visit the manufactures webpage on the Dudek Universal. Description: The Dudek Universal, commonly thought of as "the workhorse" in paramotoring, has be a favorite of mine within the EN-B (intermediate) skill range of wings! Truth be told, this one has a lot of hours on it; Upwards of 50 hours or so. Still, the overall condition is very good (the glider material, glider lines, and the risers). There is a little bit of fading to the glider material, but aside from that, there aren't any significant signs of wear and tear.  My assumption is that this glider could still be flown for many years to come, BUT, I would advise that anyone who purchases this wing with the intent to fly it has it inspected. I'd been flying this glider up until the point that I decided to list it on her...

Harness: Ozone Oxygen $200

Image
 Make: Ozone Model: Oxygen Type: Lightweight Harness Condition: Very Good Price: $200 Shipping: INCLUDED Availability: AVAILABLE Description: I really love this harness for a few reasons. First of all, it's great to practice kiting my paraglider with! This is something that ALL pilots should do more of since it will unquestionably make them better pilots. The other reason that I love it is because its FLIGHT CERTIFIED! Yes, you can paraglide with this harness, but I would only fly using this harness if the terrain that you intend to fly over is soft (like sand). Do as I say, not as I do! Because I have totally flown in areas that are rocky. Still, you should seriously fly with something that offers back and butt protection if flying in those sorts of environments. BUT, you really wouldn't want to practice kiting with a heavy duty paragliding harness.  Oh! And this harness literally doubles as a backpack! I used to take it to the university back in the day. Dang, I thought I wa...

BGD Magic Motor (Size Medium Large) $1200

Image
Make: Bruce Goldsmith Design (BGD) Model: Magic Motor Size: Medium Large Color: Virgo EN Rating: EN-A (Beginner) Condition: Excellent overall, BUT a repair is needed. Price: $1200 Shipping: INCLUDED Status: AVAILABLE   Description: This BGD Magic Motor is in very good shape; HOWEVER, there is a repair that would need to be made to a small section of the glider material. This could cost approximately 300-500 USD. That is literally the only thing wrong with this paraglider. Although I've never personally had a paraglider repaired, a friend of mine in our local flying community shipped a glider to a company called Cloud 9 to have a very similar repair made, and it looked incredible when it did return. That specific glider went on to enjoy a lot more flight time (it may still be getting flown).  This glider would be perfect for someone who doesn't have the money to purchase a new wing, or even a good used wing. At $1200, my hopes is that it finds a home with someone who understand...

Parajet Zenith (with Moster 185 Plus) $7000

Image
Make: Parajet Model: Zenith Engine: Moster 185 Plus Condition: NEW! Never Flown Shipping: I'd prefer that you come and pick this up. There are a lot of extra parts (goodies) and shipping this would be a royal pain in the butt.  Status: AVAILABLE Description: Truth be told, I am selling this unit for a friend. The backstory is that he bought 2 of these machines BRAND NEW, flew one of them, then decided to purchase a beautiful piece of land in the Philipines (a rice paddy), and only keep the paramotor that he'd already been flying. Sounds pretty awesome to me! Anyways, when he'd purchased these identical units, he also purchased many replacement parts and another frame for it in a different color! So whoever purchases this unit will have the option to make it anodized blue OR black.  I believe that the original selling price of this unit, without the extras, is $8600. So whoever purchases this, is unquestionably getting a great deal that will not be matched anywhere else.  ...

BGD Base 2 (Medium Large) $3000

Image
Make: Bruce Goldsmith Design (BGD) Model: Base 2 Size: Medium Large EN Rating: EN-A Price: $3000 Shipping: INCLUDED Condition: Used (like new. Only 2 flights) Color: Fire Status: AVAILABLE   Description: Well guys, my loss is your gain! Seriously. This beauty was going to be my “everyday driver” until some far superior free-flight pilots convinced me that El Paso (where I live) is not safe for newer free-flight pilots…or free-flight pilots in general. Ultimately, this glider IS perfect for me, and I enjoyed the hell out of the 2 epic flights that I had on it. While the other pilots around me were “sinking out”, I was high above them, looking down on their sorry asses! JK! Love those dudes. Who know, maybe I will return to free-flight in the future. And if I do, I will almost certainly come back to the BGD Base 2. And I’ll be kicking myself for not keeping this one. As I said, my loss is your gain. 

Gravity Defiant Paramotor (with Moster 185 Plus) $4000

Image
Make: Gravity Model: Defiant Engine: Moster 185 Plus (approximately 20 hours of use) Propeller Size: 130  Condition: Used/Needs Prop Price: $4,000 Status: AVAILABLE Description: This paramotor is ideal for someone who is looking to enter paramotoring on a budget. Currently, this setup needs only needs a propeller. SIMPLE FIX, that'll cost about $300. Over the last couple of years, Gravity has been difficult to reach to obtain part. Still, people eventually obtain the replacement.  Still, at the price of $4,000, I consider this a very good deal since 1) The Gravity Defiant is perhaps the most comfortable paramotor since the high-strength plastic body contours to the operator’s back 2) The engine has relatively low hours on it and you can predict that there are potentially 300+ hours remaining on the motor before it would need an overhaul 3) The prop is very easy to replace. If interested in purchasing this paramotor, feel free to reach out to me. 915-955-0348 flyeptx@gma...
