I rode in a 2 man one of these once, it was pretty rough. the ground temp was too hot and the thing was shaking all over the place. was totally scaring the shit out of me. The only time it was decent is when we went over a lake, then it was much smoother.

mind giving me the info on where you got this tandem ppg flight at?
the reason i ask is, ppg flying does not require people to register their ppgs and it does not require fliers to get pilot licenses. this is the main reason this sport is so dangerous, a lot of people will build their own ppgs that are seriously low quality and unsafe, it also makes for a lot of inexperenced fliers. if your flight experience was that bad and rough, i would have to presume that it was because of pilot error, or improper construction the persons ppg.
i recomend using a flattop ppg, they are the most safe, most reliable ppgs on the market. also i STRONGLY recommend proper training. unfortunately, it is hard to find proper training, alot of "Trainers" never received the proper training themselves, they simply learned on their own and think they are doing things correctly, when in fact they are passing on unsafe techniques to their students.

It was with a friend of mine in Washington State. He actually does have his pilots license and he flies commercial air overseas. He sold his ppg about a year ago, in watching the video again I could be wrong with what he had. His had wheels on it and 2 seats, I saw that those guys start from a standing position and it's a different unit.
