The paratrike (paramotor, motorized paraglider) is a craft that is highly sensitive to atmospheric conditions; therefore, to fly with complete safety, it is necessary to fly under optimal wind conditions and in the absence of thermals. These conditions typically occur in the early hours of the day: from sunrise until the sun warms up enough to begin creating various types of atmospheric phenomena (strong winds, thermals, turbulence, etc.).
The duration of morning stability depends largely on the area where you plan to fly and the time of year. In Esterillos, we enjoy exceptionally good weather almost every day of the year, which means we can fly paratrikes (paramotors, motorized paragliders) in complete safety from sunrise until about 3 or 4 hours after sunrise.
Therefore, a sunny day does not guarantee suitable conditions, just as a cloudy morning does not mean you can’t fly. At Parapente Pura Vida, safety is our top priority. We always conduct a thorough review of the weather forecast and real-time conditions before beginning the activity.
