BlackHawk’s Team Pilot Rex Pemberton Changes Lives in Africa
Rex and Melissa Pemberton have done it again! Their uncanny ability to touch the lives of others has extended to Ghana, West Africa. Teaming up with the “Medicine On The Move” project, Rex’s RPMP Media has finished filming “The Calling,” an inspirational story following the Porter family of Ghana. This incredible family has devoted their lives to the people of West Africa and aviation. Medicine On The Move transports educators specializing in general healthcare, basic first aid, hygiene, and disease prevention to communities which were previously beyond the reach of ground-based aid agencies. Rex recently posted that “The inability to access even basic modern health care affects millions in West Africa. Often critically ill or injured patients receive no medical assistance and frequently succumb to illness that can be easily treated.” RPMP Media has won countless awards for their film work, including the NorCal Free Flight Film Festival in San Francisco, the Boulder International Film Festival, and more. We are all extremely excited to see the outcome of his latest work. Rex is well known around the world as a motivational speaker, and his mind-blowing extreme aviation exhibitions. As many of you know, he is also a Team BlackHawk Paramotor pilot and is helping extend the reach of this amazing sport to all parts of the globe.

SKYLIGHTER
SKYLIGHTER is a harness especially suited for all the pilots who ask for maximum comfort, speed-bag and minimum weight. SKYLIGHTER focuses on experienced pilots who appreciate comfort, simple and smart design and high performance.
A harness that could be lighter than the SKY? Light and comfortable? Comfortable and high performance? Performance and still safe and fully EN LTF certified? Yes, that is SKYLIGHTER!
SKYLIGHTER is mix of design, experience and technology. Its design was developed thanks to a collaboration with a new designer: Pierre Bouilloux of SUP Air, who comes to us 2 years ago with the idea of producing new harness in SKY Paragliders facility, based on Delight.
SKYLIGHTER is a new generation of hammock type harness or “boardless” harness. Harness gained its attribute simply because board have been removed and the geometry of the harness is brand new. Strap system did not remain the same, your weight is now transfered not just on the board but spreading on the whole harness – from foot rest to shoulders. You will feel surrounded by your harness and find your position surprisingly comfortable.

REVERSE 3
REVERSE 3 represents the third generation of the successful all-in-one backpack.
If the first generation of REVERSE harness surprised pilots by its low weight, comfort and high efficiency of the airbag, and the second generation by the technical performance and many small improvements, the third generation keeps the pace.
Compared to previous generation REVERSE 3 is offering pilots recalculated stability system, modified adjustment points for more in-flight comfort, completely new design, easier access to backpack when storing equipment and modified strap system and so on.
Could you even imagine a “ready to fly set”, which weights less than 10 kg, including reserve and back protection? Now you can and whats more, in reasonable volume! …read more
