Paraglider Service USA's Story!

Paraglider Service USA specializes in quality paraglider trim tunings, paraglider inspections & paraglider line repairs. I evaluate & adjust trim/pitch areas not even considered by others. I am factory trained, use state-of-the-art calibrated equipment & follow strict protocols. Please enjoy seeing the shop, premium equipment & my constant desire to enhance operations. My name is Craig Gamma & I am retired from the fire service where the maintenance of equipment was extremely important to serve the public. For the last 10 years, I have used that engrained mindset towards maintaining the gear of paragliding pilots. No employees working for a wage, I do this, without cutting corners, because I care about your safety! Doing the right thing when no one is watching.

Paraglider Service Shop

Overview of Operations

I am constantly striving to become better than I was yesterday! Also, please keep in mind, our mascot (the cat) does not enter the shop while I am servicing paragliders. Last thing I need is her to get spooked and run across a glider. For she only monitors our indoor sewing room.

Paraglider Line Strength Testing

I spare no expense to do things right. The force gauge, load cell and graphing software for line strength testing cost $3,349.00. And my paraglider line inventory is tipping over $15K & always growing.

Dual Feed Sewing Machines

I have two Bernina sewing machines (B590 & B710), that came with Bernina's top of the line dual feed mechanism. Together, these machines are worth about $13,000 & used just for sewing up paraglider lines. Also, in this clip you can see my own personal invention, a 3D printed plastic sewing jig. This sewing jig is adjustable for all line diameters and super precise. I have been selling these all over the world!

OFFICIAL NOVA CHECK CENTER

I originally started out as a tandem business in 2007 under the name of "TandemParagliding.org". In 2014, I started paraglider sales and trim tuning service. My focus soon switched to mainly service (line replacements, trim tunings & inspections). In 2021, Nova's service manager was impressed with my level of workmanship and provided their NOVA check training. In 2022, it only seemed fitting to change my business name to match what I had been doing for the last eight years to "Paraglider Service USA".

We provide two types of reports:
