Ep 126 Jeremy Howe

Jeremy has always wanted to fly. He found paramotoring on YouTube’s recommended videos section while at Michigan State University in 2015. Over the years, his paramotor obsession grew & grew. He graduated university, got a job in corporate finance, & could finally afford to get into ppg. He signed up for paramotor training in May 2019 with Mike Cotter, Justin Fox, & Bob Harris of FlyMIPPG. After training he bought a Parajet Maverick with the Atom 80 and a 24M Ozone Mojo Pwr 1. He joined a local group of experienced paramotor people in Kankakee IL. He flew with them for a season and moved back home to Michigan. He’s been flying all over Michigan ever since. He currently flies his 24M Mojo Pwr 1 & 20M BGD Luna 2. He has ~150 flights (~100 hrs) and has taken a SIV with Andy Fuller & Bill Dolbow at Skylab. You can find him flying around metro Detroit, Michigan fly-ins, or on a yearly winter ppg trip to Florida. Jeremy has an Instagram account where he pretends to be cool like everyone else on social media. He posts a lot of paramotor pictures & clips there. @look.how.cool.i.am
