After the excitement of Zumba La Maruka 3, we took a well-deserved break. Combined with the strong winds that continued to dominate the weather, we decided to move our upcoming flying sessions to the reliable skies of the Lajas Valley. During the week, we were also busy assembling a brand-new Liberty Paramotors Trike for pilot Javier González.

Just like the previous days, strong winds continued across Puerto Rico, making the Lajas Valley the perfect destination for another early morning flying session. Joining us were Miguel Carrasquillo, Edgardo Rivera, Javier González, Nixon Porrata, Samuel Travis, and Luis Ruiz with his son, Noah Enrique.
Early in the morning, Samuel and Noah launched without any issues and headed out to explore the area from the air. Samuel set off on a cross-country flight, covering the region around Guánica and Cabo Rojo, including the beautiful Boquerón area.
Liberty Paramotors Trike
Luis Ruiz made the final adjustments to Javier González’s new Liberty Paramotors Trike and took it up for its maiden test flight before handing over the controls. A few minutes later, Javier began familiarizing himself with the trike, taxiing it around before taking to the skies himself.
The Adventures of Nixon and Edgardo
Another unforgettable day filled with stories from Edgardo and Nixon. We’re collecting these moments for an upcoming video, as these two ambassadors of the sport continue creating memories wherever they fly.

Once again, we returned to the Lajas Valley. This time the group included Luis, Noah, Edgardo, Nixon, Javier, Samuel, Alexander Jiménez, and Shirley Hernández.
Nixon and Edgardo keep challenging their limits and options for Take Off. God Bless them both!!!
Javier looked increasingly comfortable flying his new trike, while Samuel, Noah, and Luis headed out for another morning flight.
One of the highlights of the day was watching Luis and his son Noah sharing the skies together, flying side by side across much of the Lajas Valley.
Meanwhile, students Alexander and Shirley continued practicing their forward launches, building their ground-handling skills as they prepare for future flights in the area.
