One of the coolest ideas of the 2010’s is the use of a paramotor to shuttle riders to the tops of mountains. There are many advantages to this type of transport including lower environmental impact, the ability to pack in everything you would need for aerial ascents instead of relying on gas guzzling heli, and of course the shear magic of jumping off a rig that consists of a purpose built parachute with a giant fan strapped to the back. Nice work by Xavier De Le Rue, Ralph Backstrom, and Sam Anthamatten out in Alaska
