What is the best high altitude paraglider motor/frame?
ByI am a beginner to PPG but I am a private pilot. I want a safe, reliable, efficient, and reasonably-priced PPG. I will need the whole package with wing, reserve, harness, etc… I’m looking for some recommendations from those that enjoy flying but don’t manufacture/sell parts themselves. I have been looking at Super Dale’s Flat Top and the Fresh Breeze Monster Hirth. I weigh 190 pounds dressed and would like the ability to carry extra equipment and extra fuel while roaming the early morning peaks of the Wasatch Front.
My concerns are cheap components and killing myself.
Thank you!

Walker Jet RR
180 LBS of thrust (would almost lift you straight up LOL).
It is a little heavy at 70 LBS. But about the best on the market. Fresh Breeze is a very close 2nd. I have never heard of Super Dale. I guy at my fieldhas two Walker Jets.
