Great review - Nice stable EN-A , corners / responds great . Even though I am just getting into this sport - if I got one I don't think I would need to change up to something else until it expired, as your review showed all the kind of flying I would be doing, nice simple cross country. Thanks for sharing. Cheers, Patrick
Been flying for a few years now. Been on Sky paragliders the whole time. I have flown a couple of other brands but when I got my hands on an Ozone while free flying, I truly am considering switching over from Sky to Ozone. I love this glider.
Very nice video! It looks like a nice, safe...but fun wing!.....as you know, beginner wings don't have to be dull...and this one is not....keep up the great videos!!
I just stumbled across this video. I like the idea of Wing Reviews. I would suggest including quantative comparative performance specs (top speed, flight endurance, stall speed, glide ratio, etc) so perspective buyers can know how it stacks up against other wings. As a newb, I'm trying to really understand why I would choose this wing over any others. Thanks.
Hi Eric. Phil here, I live in the uk and love watching your videos, Well here goes.I am pg pilot and instructor rated with the B.H.P.A. in the uk but that was about 7 years ago, I am now looking to do the conversion course to ppg, Wish i was the other side of the pond as i would deffinatly be coming to your school for instruction just love the way you are with your students, I dont plan to buy anything until i have qualified but always looking at the different motors out there and yes i do like the mojo wing, Looks good and also been looking at the top 80 motor, Well now for the crunch i am 65 years old but still pretty fit, What are your thoughts on a oldie like me getting into ppg and equipment.Thanks and will continue to watch your great vid's . Stay safe Phil.
I've really been contemplating the mojo 5 but I think the wing isn't suited for my environment/me or in that matter any beginner wing.. have you tested the geo4?? If you could please take the time and search makapuu/Waimanalo paragliding if not.. you'd see that this a serious ridge line with usually heavy winds .. am I looking at the right type of wings?! The geo4 seems like it could handle it/about anything but I don't want to sacrifice safety but at the same time I can't sacrifice performance either or I'll be unsafe too, really need some good advice or at least point me in the right direction of which category of wing I should be looking at for this location if this is not an optimal level of wing. I believe I can handle any* glider , been around kites/foils/ gliders almost my whole life (on the ground) and am ready to make an investment that will hopefully last a life time not looking to upgrade and upgrade, just coastal soaring, thermaling, that will need serious performance that is relative to safety . Wind can be 20+ on most days Please help me out I'd really appreciate it, you sound like you have experience with different wings and that's the type of opinion I consider valid. Budget is 4k and below. I'm sorry this doesn't relate to powered paragliding, the MOJO is what brought me here. Thanks for sharing this vid, it helped me realize that this wing might not be agile/fast/glide/responsive enough.. imo! Thank you so much for taking the time to give us some of your knowledge. Anyone who is reading this I'd love to hear what you fly!! Even if you're into hang gliding! Thank you for your time sir
Hey man, if you're thinking of flying regularly (ridge soaring) in 20+ mph I'd encourage you to take a step back.... You definitely want to start on a beginner wing, but it sounds like your site may be beyond a beginner.. Hmm. Where do you live?
Hey Eric, why don't you guys recommend the Ozone Spark as a beginner wing? On Ozone's website the insinuate that its the most "safe", so just wondering if you guys think the Mojo is safer or not so boring and safe?
Awesome video/reivew! Would you say the Mojo PWR is one of the safer wings for closer to mid-day flying, with higher winds/thermal activity? I'm looking for a good beginner wing that would also work later on for a wider range of conditions, eventually flying XC / in mountain ranges / thermals / fly-camping / etc. The Spyder & Roadster 2 seem like they'd fit the bill too, but would they be a lot less stable/forgiving than the Mojo PWR? Thanks
Great video! I just bought my first paramotor and wing and have started training under two amazing instructors in Alabama. Would you give your thoughts on the Ozone Roadster 2? That's the wing I bought and I can't wait to try it. I have the 28m variant. Thank you!
I'm strongly considering this wing as my first wing. Primarily I want to so a lot of sight seeing and cross country. Is this wing good for that? I hope it has really good lift. How does it handle the thermals? I'm gonna be exploring a lot of mountains and wilderness so I need something good for that. Otherwise, I was looking at the Roadster 2. Not sure which would be a better beginner wing specifically for my needs. (The paramotor I'm most interested in is your upcoming Tornado 280, so I wonder if either of these would go good with that?)
Hey there, either wing will work well for you. I thermal with the Mojo frequently. The Roadster's extra speed would be nice for XC but it's not as safe. All things to consider!
Eric, would this be a lot safer than the Paramania Revo3 for a beginner? I was looking at this wing initially (the mojo), because of its passive safety, but was told I would quickly get bored of it, and that I'd be fine with a Revo3. Is that accurate? I'm not interested in acro -- mainly local / XC flying.
Would love to see more about how beginner wings recover from full collapses/failures! Also, which are the best for people who just want safest leisure flying?
I'd definitely recommend any EN-A wing. You can read the EN - Safety reports on most reputable wing manufacturers site's. My favorite is still the Mojo!
Let's sat for leisure flying in safe conditions. Out of 10 thousand flights how many are you gonna need to use a reserve shute. I so want to get into this but it scares me
Great vid Eric. I have just bought a mojo 5, and it doesn't have the trim system? The picture in the manual of the risers doesn't have the trim on either? Any help much appreciated
Hi Eric, as a beginner would be worth buying the Mojo PWR or go straight to the Roadster 2 for instance, taking in mind the idea of keeping it for a long time ? thank you!
+rickzibr Hey there Rick, it really depends on your skill and budget. I'd love to see all of my students flying on the Mojo first for 50-100 hours but some of them have the skills to jump to a Roadster or the like much faster. Both wings will make you a better pilot :)
I'm deciding between this and Roadster as beginner wing. I want safety but I don't want to compromise too much speed. What is this one cruse speed and what is roadster cruise speed? Thanks.
Hey Aviator! This wing is suppose to be dual purpose free flight and ppg. Have you ever tried free flying it? would the same wing (talking size i guess) be good for the same pilot minus the weight of the engine? I would be looking at getting this wing and the air conception nitro 200. il be using it for both free flight and PPG in colorado, so high altitude less than 10k' but great than 5k'. Do you guys offer a bundle package (motor, wing, training)
Hey man, yes! I've done a good bit of freeflying on this wing in almost all the sizes. It can definitely work for your needs. I'd consider the Ozone Spyder as well. It's a bit easier to launch and offers a little more "fun" as it is rated as an intermediate wing. You'd still have your first flights on our Mojos, but move up to the Spyder as time continues :) We do offer bundles, yessir. Actually have a new student joining us from Colorado this weekend... The 4th this year!
This is my dream to do. I love flight and this looks like a cheap, and more importantly safe, way to fly and glide and just enjoy the sky. I want all my pilots licences some day, but this may be something to save up for now. What woudl you recommend as a good starting budget for equipment? Just want to know what to shoot for.
Any chance you could do a comparison between the Mojo Pwr and the Kona? Would the Kona be a suitable wing for a beginner right out of school? Thanks. Great vid.
Hey there Torqd, we usually sell the Kona to pilots with good skills and more than 15 flights who are looking to do a lot of free flying as well as motoring. If motoring is their goal we usually sell them a Roadster 3.
AviatorShow Ok. Thanks for the info. I’d like to do both disciplines but living in Flat Illinois would make free flight a little tough. I think I’ve pretty much decided on the Mojo Pwr to start and then move on after I’ve mastered that wing. From what I’ve seen the Roadster 3 would be the best next step in progression or maybe the Spyder. Thanks again. Cheers
I know this is an old video, but I'm fixing to buy my first wing and have narrowed it down to either this wing or the Dudek Universal. Could you do a comparison, or comment? Thank you!
Question on size selection; I'm 81kg and the small is rated up to 85kg and the medium is 80 -100kg. Is it best to go for medium and have a grater margin for adding weight or the small? Thanks
Hi, Thanks for the reply, I'm will be flying from approx 300ft sea level. TBH I haven't purchased the motor yet, just in the early stages and gathering info. Assuming an average motor weight, approx 30kg fuelled, is that about right?
I have! It's an awesome wing... My choice if your plan is to spend a lot of time free-flying. Otherwise if your goal is a good stable B wing, go for the Spyder.
Hi there, that is anazing, i would really want to have that wing/glider. What size you think is fit for a 5'4" 135 lbs guy. Pls let me know and how much is it?
What is a good wing for a 270 lb person that has a wide range for beginner, intermediate to advance. So as skill goes up you would not need a new glider right away.
Have you any info on the Ultralite 4 EN A. On ozone it is listed as being for all skill levels. It also listed as an A wing but I can not find anyone using it on a paramotor. Is it to new? Not for paramotors? or have a weight limit? Whats your thoughts on that?
+Jay Edgar I've flown both, the Buzz PWR offers a bit more dynamic handling, and a bit more performance, but slightly less natural stability and safety.
