About GliderGear

Glider Gear was founded by Rob Reynolds and John Schumacher, two Birmingham, Alabama paraglider pilots.  Our goal is to support the needs of the paragliding and paramotoring community in Alabama, Mississippi, and Western Tennessee by stocking and providing highest quality paragliding and paramotoring equipment to local pilots.

Our Mission:

We are a part-time business and are here as a resource for the community.  Our goal is to support the pilots in our market by providing quality equipment, service, and support to local paraglider and paramotor pilots.  Our policy is to support local pilots and refer pilots from other areas to their local dealers.  As we are a part-time business, we support and recognize the sacrifice that has been made by the many dedicated, hard working full-time instructors and dealers.   As such, we will not attempt to compete with full-time dealers, especially those in other parts of the country.
