Designer and Developer of Hybrid ParaTrikes, adrenaline junkie Mark Denny, was introduced to the aviation world in December 1987 when, after multiple injuries in motocross racing, he decided that repeatedly hitting the ground was not fun anymore, so he set his eyes on skydiving. He sold his motocross gear, bought skydiving gear and Mark's passion for flight took off. On his eleventh student jump he was introduced to Canopy Relative Work (CRW) and found passion in this area of skydiving. He received his Pro ratings and Jump Master ratings in 1989 and continued working with world class individuals honing his canopy handling skills. After mastering his skills as a skydiver, in 1993, he was introduced to the ultralight industry where he assembled and taught himself to fly a Pterodactyl. What a pleasure it was for him to have the opportunity to fly this aircraft and feels today that it was the simplest form of fixed wing flight. Soon afterwards Mark purchased a Weedhopper, a Quicksilver and a tandem seat Explorer that he mounted on floats. These purchases escalated into the purchasing of many more fixed wing ultralights. In 2001 he purchased aDK Whisper Paramotor and signed up for lessons at the Fly By Ranch with Eric Dufour. Mark became aninstructor in 2003 in the Powered ParaFoil industry. Now with over 3000 flying hours and 2200 skydives,his experience and knowledge coming from building, flying, buying and selling over 500 types of ultralightaircraft provides him the fundamentals to take the best aspects of all these aircraft and develop them into one.......“The Hybrid ParaTrike”
