"My name is Cameron Nagin and my dad and I got into powered paragliding when I was just 15 years old. It has been a 9 year journey so far and have loved every minute of it. I remember I was so scared to take my first solo flight that I purposely aborted 7 times in a row. Once I got into the I've never wanted to come down since. I spend every waking minute on noaa.org checking the weather to see if conditions are good to fly. We really enjoy taking long cross country flights and don't like to go up unless we can fly for a minimum of an hour and half. My dad and I have both flown black hawk Paramotors since day one and still have our original engines, with proper maintenance and care they still run like they did on day one. This sport is the most amazing thing that has ever happened to me and beats the adrenalin rush of doing wheelies down the freeway. It has been one of the greatest ways for my dad and I to bond and create stories and memories not many get to share with their parents or children."
