Arrival & Check-In** You’ll meet your pilot, sign a waiver, and get a quick overview of the experience. If you’re flying somewhere like San Francisco, expect incredible coastal views.   ### **2. Gear & Setup** You’ll be fitted into a secure harness that connects you to your pilot. A helmet is provided, it's a good idea to bring gloves or a jacket depending on conditions.    ### **3. Safety Briefing** Before takeoff, you'll get a pre-flight briefing which covers: - How to run during launch - How to get comfortable once airborne - What to do (and not do) mid-flight - How to land   ### **4. Takeoff (The Only “Active” Part)** You’ll walk or jog forward as your pilot inflates the wing. walk or jog forward a couple steps depending on wind conditions and gently lift off into the air Most people are surprised how easy this part is.   ### **5. The Flight** Once in the air, enjoy the flight! - You'll be in a comfortable seated position - Panoramic views (ocean, cliffs, city) - Gentle turns and gliding - Optional: your pilot may offer mild acrobatics if you want more excitement You might see birds like hawks or depending on the time of year even wales or dolphins below.   ### **6. Duration** Typical tandem flights last: - 10–20 minutes (standard coastal flights)  ### **7. Landing** Landing is smooth and controlled: - You’ll stand up expect it to feel like going down a flight of stairs and skipping the last step - No hard impact usually easier than expected    ## **Quick Tips** - Wear sneakers and layered clothing - Sunglasses help with wind and glare - Eat light beforehand (not on a full stomach) - Relax your pilot does all the work --- ## Kortel Kairn {#kortel-kairn} *Price: $400.00* The Kairn is Kortel Design's response to the mountain harness concept.

It can also boast of two innovations: the redesigned, even more comfortable NOVA Adjustable Handles and a colour gradient on the brake line that helps to correctly dose the brake travel. A feeling like no other. Who doesn’t like to remember their first flight? For this, the PRION 5 is the ideal paraglider and often accompanies pilots a long way after training. A nice example of what is possible with an EN A wing is the [200 km FAI triangle of Robert Schaller](https://www.xcontest.org/2015/world/de/fluge/details/:RobertSchaller/11.08.2015/07:59) with his PRION 3 in 2015. The PRION 5 has even more potential. It is just such fun to fly and it makes commencing the “paragliding journey” simple. Optimised for instruction. The design of the PRION 5 was carried out in consultation with  students and paragliding instructors and resulted in further improved roll damping. Technically, it also differs from its predecessor model in that it has a slightly lower aspect ratio and a more complex interior. The mini-ribs increase performance and decrease brake pressure, the nylon reinforcements in the middle of each cell make for even better launch characteristics. Additionally, several vector tapes increase the structural stability. Everything under control. With the PRION 5’s redesigned Adjustable Handles, it is possible to individually adjust the width of the brake handles. This can be done effortlessly via Velcro and facilitates correct gripping and direct brake input. The ball of the hand and the brake line should form a line, because this makes launching easier, is more comfortable in the long run, improves the feeling for the glider and thus increases flight safety. Alternatively, the Adjustable Handles can be used exactly in the same way as our standard brake handles. The standard riser, our tried and tested Student Riser, also has helpful markings – for example for manoeuvres such as big ears. Innovation included. Brake lines with a colour gradient (from green to yellow to red) enable the pilot of the PRION 5 for the first time to correctly dose the brake travel by means of visual control. The idea for this innovation was developed in cooperation with the [DHV](https://www.dhv.de/) and can help to prevent excessive braking or accidental stalling. The green and yellow area are used for steering, the red area is for the flare when landing. - MORE INFOQuote from Dr. Klaus Irschik, Proprietor of the flying school Flugschule Göppingen (Germany) “The PRION series from NOVA has made a significant contribution to stress-free training for us as a flying school and for me as an instructor. With hundreds of taster course and initial training flights, but also with high flights, we sometimes see clear differences. For us, the most important thing is that a beginner’s glider lines are easy to handle, it is easy to take off even in difficult wind conditions and can easily cope with any overreactions on the part of the pilot. And thanks to good workmanship and smart choice of materials, they still look good even after the toughest training sessions. I think the PRION 5 is the logical next-step of the successful models from previous years, but with a little more performance and better handling. This allows us to get people in the air safely even on shallow training slopes. Our beginners now reach the required safety altitude more quickly on the gentle hills of the Swabian Alps.” ### Pilot target group The PRION 5 (EN/LTF A – suitable for instruction) is a very good-natured paraglider with easy launch and landing characteristics, which provides pleasure in flying both in school and beyond. It combines the highest possible passive safety with intuitive handling and, thanks to its modern design, is suitable for relaxed soaring as well as for first cross-country flights. The balanced mix of stability and agility that has characterised the PRION series since 2010 has proven ideal for beginners. ### Quote from Ferdinand Vogel, NOVA test pilot “The aim was to create a stable glider with a high degree of roll damping, which would make flying even safer and the critical phases of launch and landing easier for everyone. In combination with its direct handling, the PRION 5 has become one of the safest and simplest wings.” - FEATURES Short and compact Simple launch characteristics. The wing inflates easily and climbs straight above the pilot without a tendency to overshoot which makes learning to launch (forward or reverse) particularly simple and safe. Roll damping. Roll basically means “rocking to the left and right” under the wing. This maneuver is practised during paragliding instruction. However, accidental roll should be avoided. The roll damping keeps the glider on track in straight flight – this is especially important for beginner gliders, because it allows the pilot to concentrate on controlling the wing. For example, this also makes  the landing approach easier. Student Riser. These risers offer the following useful colour-coding: green and red markings which are also found on the attachment points of our harnesses help to prevent clipping-in incorrectly. The correct lines to pull for big ears and a B-line stall are indicated on the maillon. The colours of the line areas (A, B and C) are continued on the riser. Adjustable Handles. Individually adjustable brake handles facilitate correct gripping and direct brake input.  The ball of the hand and the brake line should form a line. This makes launching easier, improves the “feeling” for the wing and as a result, increases flight safety. Alternatively, the Adjustable Handles can be used exactly in the same way as our standard brake handles. Brake Travel Indicator (BTI). The colour gradient (from green to yellow to red) enables the pilot for the first time to correctly dose the brake travel by means of visual control. This can help to prevent accidental stalling. The green and yellow area are used for steering, the red area is for the flare when landing. Mini-Ribs. Mini-ribs increase the number of cells in the rear wing area and thus provide an aerodynamically optimised trailing edge. The mini-ribs also help to keep the brake pressure moderate. Mid Cell Rods. The clever placement of nylon reinforcements in the middle of each cell make for even better launch characteristics. This is the first time in the PRION series they have been used. - TECHNOLOGY Comfort on the ground. All NOVA paragliders are made to be easy to use. For packing you can use a concertina bag, but it is not essential. Our extensive experience with rods has taught us that the packing method has little influence on the durability of the wing. Bent rods quickly spring back into their original shape.   - COLORS ### Specifications | Size | XXS, XS, S, M, L | | --- | --- | | Colour | Lime, Orange, Blue, Sangria | --- ## PHI BEAT (EN B) {#phi-beat-en-b} *Price: $4,900.00* **The Beat of your heart!** The flat Aspect Ratio of the BEAT is 5.3 (TENOR 5.1, MAESTRO 5.6), the number of cells is 56 (TENOR 50, MAESTRO 60). In terms of wing area, the Phi Beat comes with around half a square meter more than its “B brothers” which provides a **noticeable advantage when climbing in weak conditions.** The PHI BEAT is the synthesis of several current concepts from our range. So he combines some of his brothers’ strengths. At the request of many pilots, the BEAT has only robust, sheathed TECHNORA lines on the brakes and stabilo, which stand out clearly from the ground in their orange. With this decision, we follow our conviction that paragliding has to become easier again! Despite the theoretically higher resistance of these somewhat thicker lines, we could not measure a performance disadvantage, on the contrary. Above all, this wing seems to benefit from its exceptionally clean finish. The BEAT has a very high level of form stability due to its complex structure. This makes it fly extremely precise and gives excellent feedback! **Designer’s Note** *Our test team immediately liked the first BEAT prototype extremely well. It was love at first sight! The handling is perfectly balanced, the performance is convincing and he also behaved very well in the manoeuvres. Once again we had the right feeling and a little bit of luck! So we are very happy to surprise the pilots with this wing! With the BEAT we are now able to offer 5 B wings (in addition to 4 wings in the A-class). With our wide range, we want to make sure that every pilot finds the right-wing for himself.* *Hannes Papesh* **Technical Features** With 56 cells and a flat aspect ratio of 5.3 the BEAT sits between TENOR and MAESTRO. Technically it is a somewhat slimmed-down MAESTRO with a few pinches of ALLEGRO (3 main lines), improved intake and being extremely well balanced with a very high level of form stability due to its complex structure. **Technical Data** **Weight Ranges** **Serial Colours** **Scope of Delivery** - Glider - PHI Harmonica 43 Concertina Compress Bag - Repair Kit **PHI PROMISE GUARANTEE – 12 months Accidental Damage Protection** *Your glider and our Promise. We do everything to ensure that you are fully enjoying your new PHI paraglider.

Whether near or far, difficult flying or exciting adventure. The new light high-end B goes with you for bivouac flying, Hike & XC-fly tours, traveling or discovering new routes in remote regions. XI – realise your story. **Real lightweight construction** Available from 3.4 kg with fully lightweight design: The XI uses a mix of 27 and 32 gm Porcher Skytex cloth. To save more weight the number of cells and sliced diagonals has been reduced. The stress distribution system has been reworked to coordinate these requirements. The result is a perfectly balanced entity. **Performing in all conditions** The XI combines light weight with the outstanding performance of the Performance-Intermediate IOTA 2. The High-end B wing features high pitch and directional stability in mobile air. This and its significant stability at speed encourage relaxed, hours-long flying – with performance you can call upon at any time. **Unique Allround talent**As an allround talent the XI takes you wherever you would like to go: on a long cross country following a hike to a remote takeoff, as your first vol-bivouac companion, on a trip round the world or an evening Hike & Fly – the antidote for a busy day. Your creativity has no bounds with a XI. **Customizable Colors – CONTACT US** - TECHNOLOGY AND FEATURES **Double 3D-Diamond Shaping** **** A diagonal perspective in the two-fold 3D shaping computations works to counteract seam-gathering (ruching) and the effects of the vertical forces across the profile. This achieves an even smoother canopy surface at the leading edge. **Sliced Diagonals** **** The XI has Sliced Diagonals inside the wing to provide ideal tension distribution at minimum weight. Extensive work on this technology enabled many line support points to be saved, as well as ensuring the stable shape of the canopy itself, even under demanding aerodynamic and mechanical conditions. **State-of-the-Art Technology** The latest technology is incorporated in the XI: for example the Advanced Air Scoop for friendly stall behaviour, short C-Wires for maximum profile retention and Miniribs for a smooth, efficient trailing edge. **Pitch Control System** The XI has a modern pitch control system for its trailing edge, which interconnects with the B-level. It can be flown actively and steered by the C/B-levels when accelerated. ** Riser Features** Line Features **Colour coding**  To make line sorting easier the XI A and brake lines are identified by different colours (grey and red) at the risers. Big ear lines, stabilo lines and the much-handled brake lines have a section of coloured cover running up from the riser end. **Twice coated** Edelrid Magix Pro lines differ from other uncovered versions because they undergo a detailed Thermo Shield treatment and have an additional UV-Protec-Coating, which filters out the sun’s damaging UV light. These finishing processes prolong life, provide resistance to dust and water, and, at the same time, minimise the loss of strength caused by UV radiation. **Very stable length** Compared with Dyneema, Aramid lines, in general, change their lengths very little. Edelrid “Magix Pro” demonstrates minimal stretching and shrinking – within a maximum 0.2 % – and this line has excellent return-to-original properties. Experience shows that paragliders, fully lined with Edelrid “Magix Pro”, do not require retrimming for very long periods. Original flying characteristics are retained even after much intensive use. **Robust dimensions** The use of “Magix Pro” for the XI does not put performance alone at the forefront. Line thickness is similar to that of traditional covereds. This measurement results in considerably higher strength for the same diameter, because the whole cross section shares the load – not just the core. The broad gauge of “Magix Pro” lines delivers longer life compared to similar thickness covered lines. **Inner loop reinforcement** Every XI line has internal loop reinforcement. To achieve this a length of the same line is spliced inside a loop, increasing its line diameter, and thus the surface area of loop to loop contact. This reduces pressure where thin line meets thicker, and avoids the problem of the thin line cutting into the other. **Outer loop reinforcement** Base line loops also have external covers to minimise wear where they meet their quicklink. - TECHNICAL DATA **Data** **Materials** - FAQS What does the XI require of its pilot? The lightweight Performance-Intermediate is suitable for experienced thermal pilots who have, at least, made their first cross country flights and have the necessary feeling for a High-EN/LTF-B wing. Only those who have acquired an active flying style, can recognise the onset of canopy disturbances and know how to react accordingly, will be able to fully make the most of the XI’s impressive performance. Mastery of the usual fast descent techniques for a High-EN/LTF-B paraglider is assume **XI or IOTA 2? Which one is right for me?** IOTA 2: for everyone who does not make weight a first priority and who would like a very robust wing. XI: for adventurers, pilots who like to walk up to takeoffs, be it for long, ambitious cross countries or Hike und Fly – or the XI’s showpiece: Bivouac flying. [XI compared to the IOTA 2 (pdf)](https://www.advance.ch/fileadmin/user_upload/Gleitschirme/XI/180713_XI_IOTA_Vergleich_EN.pdf) **How do I use the Pitch Control Function?** Instead of controlling canopy pitch by speedbar and steering by weightshift you can use the XI C-Risers directly. The advantage is direct handling response. A Pitch Control Line transmits some C-riser movement to the B-level. Please note that correct and instinctive control by C-Riser needs experience and practice. Pulling them too hard or fast risks stalling! **Which XI size XI should I choose?** If you fly in the normal variety of conditions you should choose the wing whose Seamless Weight Range contains your normal all-up flying flight. **Can I fly the XI outside my Seamless Weight Range?** Of course! The certified weight ranges are wider than the seamless weight ranges and overlap. The seamless (ideal) weight ranges with no overlapping areas just make it easier to choose – in fact there’s no choice required. Flying outside your seamless weight range – near the upper or lower certified weight limits – can influence a wing’s handling characteristics, without affecting your safety. Glider performance remains the same, but climb performance will vary. **Is there anything special about packing the XI?** Like all modern paragliders with leading edge and C-Wires we recommend that you pack the XI cell on cell. We have deliberately shortened the C-Wires for easier, smaller packing (e.g. for reversible harnesses). When packing always lay the nose wires one on the next, so that they lie flat on each other, at the same height. All C-Wires will then be at their own same level. Fold the wing to the width of the inner bag and fold it in as usual (see. pic.): first fold the trailing edge over inboard of the mini-ribs (below the C-Wires), then the leading edge below the Leading-Edge-Wires. Finally fold the leading edge half over the trailing edge end. **Why does the XI have Softlinks? Can I change a line?** We have a lot of positive experience with our light PI BI tandem wing which has Softlinks. They are one tenth the weight of metal quicklinks, for the same strength. If you have to change a line the ADVANCE Softlink can be opened and closed without problem. No tool is needed. There’s a guide in the manual with the picture underneath. If you are not sure how to do this, or have any question, always ask an ADVANCE Service Centre. **What do I get by registering my paraglider in my MyADVANCE Account?** By registering you benefit from the extended ADVANCE warranty. This is valid for three years for defects that can be attributed to manufacturing faults. You will also be informed about safety-relevant intelligence about your ADVANCE product direct from us. **The XI is made of lightweight fabrics; what effect does this have on its lifespan?** No paraglider should be dragged over the ground, stored wet, left in the sun without need, dunked in salt water or exposed to large temperature changes while packed. This advice applies in particular to a light wing like a XI. If you look after it carefully, you will be able to enjoy your XI for a long time. - MANUALS Getting Started Documentation Presentation - Getting Started Guide - Manual - Product presentation - Line Guide ### Specifications | Size | Acid, White | | --- | --- | --- ## PHI Maestro (EN B) {#phi-maestro-en-b} *Price: $5,100.00* The Comeback!

Not so dynamic and takes a bit to build, for “barrel roll” would be more like a loop, like spiral then go to other side. It’s not like a speed wing where you could just roll it, need to build the energy first so need more height. It’s a great little wing! Was a machine on the motor, so easy to launch and playful! Yeah, it’s tame as! But I’m only 65kg. Super solid and great to play with on the ground! (Shane Tighe) - Flying in 15-20 kt winds is amazing knowing you can deal with gusts up to 24kts. SONATA 16 is a very comfortable glider in those gusty conditions. I love the glide and even with trimmers out it didn’t just sink out, it was fun and direct. Based on the stall tests we did at 80% trim (8/10 ) SONATA has great inherent stability. I think the Sonata needs to start at 4/10 in windy days 15+ knots for it to be fun and fly through or cut through the air, anything under that you are not moving much and it moves around too much but this configuration is good in light winds to cross smaller dunes soo Excellent overall. (John) - It should beat other mini wings outright. Hannes seems to know what he’s doing with his products and kinda seems like he’s designed the SONATA around the idea of hike and fly + mucking around. Would explain why SONATA has the longest trimmers on the market. (Christian) - I’ve done 3 flights on the SONATA 14 and I’m loving it! Very responsive handles amazing, feel very in control, dives really nicely into turns, flares great. (Ryan) - SONATA 16. Got the wing last week. Spent quite a few hours flying it over the last few days. I’m surprised how lighter conditions you can fly it in. Was easily maintaining height on both the dunes and that larger ridge in 11kts (on the hill face). I think on that larger ridge I could have stayed airborne with a bit less too. I was in between 80 to 85kg under the wing. - We have many small wing enthusiasts that were flying what was considered the best mini wigs on the market. Some of them are testing new prototypes of the new mini wings models, they all still own their own SONATA miniwing. The most common feedback comparing SONATA mini wings with other gliders is that SONATA has a wider usable range and is more stable. The stability is mainly appreciated by the miniwing newcomers and by the experienced hounds that fly these wings in very strong wind. - Just got to fly the Sonata 16 for the first time today. Winds less than 10 knots often a lot less the glider kept me up and above and able to play around without ever feeling like I was heading for the BO. It is like a Ferrari- fast across the sky. I am yet to throw it around, as I would like to get to know it better first, but I did get a good feeling for it. Michael Shyne - Flys great, very efficient in the lift for its size, in my opinion much more lift than the ozone zero’s. Milan Martin-Moser **The New King of Mini Wings (SONATA)** *I’ve flown, tested and sold most mini wings in the search for the best, and once a new best is found, that’s all I fly until it’s superseded. Call me biased if you like, but please try it yourself – it will surprise you! I look forward to your feedback. *[Review By Alan Hills](https://flybubble.com/blog/the-new-king-of-miniwings) (SkyWings Paragliding, NZ) **More feedback from Alan Hills** *We helped bring this wing to the market – lots of discussions with designer Hannes Papesh, aiming for a new world best miniwing. PHI’s test pilot, Mike Kung is also always on the quest to develop the perfect high wind miniwing, for his stunning high wind and ground handling demonstrations, so it’s hugely fulfilling to have it in limited production. It does not disappoint, has yet to be beaten and has quickly become NZ’s most popular miniwing. The handling is truly exhilarating and delivers everything your other bigger wing doesn’t. Exquisite, agile, surgical precision, along with fantastic performance and safety. Alan Hills (SkyWings Paragliding, NZ)* **SONATA 12, 14, 16 miniwing**PHI SONATA 16 (flat area 19.4 m2) clean profile with 40 cells, 4.72 flat AR, they are the same glider as [PHI VIOLA](https://fly2base.com/products/phi-viola) made from Dominico 30 D with trimmer and spedbar system. PHI VIOLA in the same size is certified EN a for 50-75 kg and EN C for 75-110 kg. SONATA 12, 14 and 16 are load-tested EN 926.1.  If you are after efficient miniwing that does flat turns and speedy spirals SONATA miniwing will look after you. **Designer’s note** *The PHI SONATA is the new baseline of our sport: the new reference. It redefines the safety, performance and fun level a modern paraglider is able to offer. The highest technical knowledge combined with 30 years of experience in professional paraglider design made this wing possible.* *During development, the very experienced PHI test pilots team (Mike Küng and Benni Hörburger) noticed constant progress in the target parameters. The final PHI SONATA shows extremely forgiving flight behaviour. It’s a very clean surface (double 3D shaping in optimized *zig-zag* direction) shows its effect by keeping the airflow on the wing even at very high angles of attack. The optimized intake, reinforcement shape and strap pattern enable a new benchmark in takeoff simplicity.* *The whole construction is very strong and forms stable. Even when loaded extremely highly (185DaN x8G) during the certification load test, the test sample was not destroyed. The materials of the extra strong rigging were selected carefully to avoid trim changes *by the line shrinking/stretching*. The SONATA is a heavy-duty paraglider in every matter.* Hannes Papesh **Technical Data** **Secrets** Imaging a clown in his colourful striped dress, balancing on a rope and juggling many balls.

Originally conceived as a product to fulfill a specific demand, the PI series has become an established feature of our wing selection. The “Light Versatility” motto will carry even higher significance in this third generation: there are two additional 21 and 25 sizes for the PI 3, and it is even lighter and more compact. # Different demands depending on size The 16 and 19 sizes are more directed towards extreme Hike & Fly and Climb & Fly adventures – they have been uncompromisingly optimised for minimum weight and volume. Nitinol wires at the leading edge and extremely light Dominico 10D cloth make minimalistic weight a reality. From the 21 size the focus is more on ease of use and durability, and here we employ well-tried Porcher Skytex 27gm cloth and use Nylon wires. # New unified risers The PI 3 has only one riser version; the advantages of the previous versions have been combined. This riser is extremely light but also easy to manage. 21 to 27 sizes have split A-risers for easy big ears: the smaller 16 and 19 do not have this function so save weight. Like all ADVANCE risers, all sizes have the popular and useful Easy Connect system. | Size | Size | 16 | 19 | 21 | 23 | 25 | 27 | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Flat surface | m2 | 16.0 | 19.0 | 21.0 | 23.0 | 25.0 | 27.0 | | Projected surface | m2 | 14 | 16.7 | 18.4 | 20.1 | 21.9 | 23.7 | | Recommended takeoff weight | kg | 50-90 | 50-75 | 65-85 | 75-95 | 85-105 | 97-115 | | Increased takeoff weight | kg | – | 75-95 | 85-100 | 95-110 | 105-120 | 115-125 | | Glider weight | kg | 1.85 | 2.15 | 2.55 | 2.75 | 2.95 | 3.15 | | Span | m | 8.5 | 9.3 | 9.8 | 10.2 | 10.7 | 11.1 | | Projected span | m | 7.0 | 7.6 | 8.0 | 8.4 | 8.7 | 9.1 | | Aspect ratio | | 4.5 | 4.5 | 4.5 | 4.5 | 4.5 | 4.5 | | Projected aspect ratio | | 3.5 | 3.5 | 3.5 | 3.5 | 3.5 | 3.5 | | Number of cells | | 38 | 38 | 38 | 38 | 38 | 38 | | Certification Recommended takeoff weight | | EN-C | EN-B | EN-A | EN-A | EN-A | EN-A | | Certification increased takeoff weight | | – | EN-B | EN-B | EN-B | EN-B | EN-B | # Pilot requirements Higher wing loadings mean more demanding flight characteristics and handling.

As a beginner, you can trust this wing 100%. The ALPHA model is the well-tried classic for first flights, and after basic training, offers many possibilities of exploring further afield. This 6th generation of the ALPHA series is modern in concept, founded on many years’ experience, and promises reliability and durability.Fly light and easy Easy takeoff : A revised ALPHA 6 line concept leaves the wing with visibly fewer suspension points and fewer lines – easy to sort and easy to see. After a simple takeoff your ALPHA 6 is in the air. The ALPHA 6 is also light – thanks to carefully designed internal structure and high-quality materials. **Modern flying** Great in the air : Modern Advanced Air Inlet Technology brings flying safety and wing stability. The typical ADVANCE combination of semi-circular intakes with an Air Scoop provides higher pressure in the wing at high angles of attack. This results in progressive brake loading and minimizes any tendency to spin when turning. This means more passive safety. **Simply more power** Lasting fun : Modern design ensures that the fun continues long after your training with your ALPHA 6. Double 3D shaping around the leading edge creates a smooth upper wing surface, giving you better performance. The spartan line concept with its sophisticated diagonal ribs inside further raises gliding performance – noticeably high for the A classification. Only three line levels and two gallery floors. Simpler and easier to see makes short work of line sorting. The completely revised ALPHA6 line concept results in 20% fewer line meters and 35 % fewer line items. Its hardly necessary to point out that this considerable reduction in total line length clearly improves glide performance at trim speed and especially when accelerated. Modern “Air Scoop Technology’ at the leading edge now applies to the ALPHA 6. Combined with the typical ADVANCE semi-circular intakes this feature results in a significantly lower separation point with clearly progressive brake loading. Brake travel is 15 % longer than the ALPHA 5 value, so passive safety is enhanced. The ALPHA 6 risers have a new “Easy Connect System”, which helps the pilot hook in correctly by using a colored marking system. This reduces the probability of the nervous beginner connecting a twisted riser, or attaching the risers to the wrong carabiners. For maximum compatibility among ADVANCE products the same colored markings will also apply, in future, to all ADVANCE harness suspension points. Big ears made easy. The ALPHA 6 outer A-line has its own easily reachable riser, making it easy to pull effective big ears. Taking off with both A-risers in hand is also simplified by the “Quick-Snap” magnet system which holds them together on the ground. Line sorting remains child’s play. After pull up the risers separate and take up their flying position. ### Specifications | Size | 26, 28, 31 | | --- | --- | | Colour | Fire, Royal | --- ## Ozone Women's Classic T-Shirt {#ozone-womens-classic-t-shirt} *Price: $35.00* Official Ozone branded classic t-shirt with a women's tailored fit.

Panorama will help you take your flight companion to that once “intangible realm” called “the dream of flight”. Easier than ever. We took attention to the flying characteristics of all flying phases. Especially the handling, which is precise and direct with great authority. Launching is remarkably easy in both nil wind and strong wind. Landing is stress-free with great retention of energy to a perfect flare at landing. We keep receiving great feedback from pilots around the world about its climbing ability and remarkably easy handling and playful nature in thermals. Panorama is a great climber and will ofter outclimb other gliders in solo wings. Launching, Flying and landing resemble the feel of a solo wing. Light brake pressure is noticeable in the entire weight range. Flow panorama has easy to use trimmers which offer 110mm of travel. The combination of double coated Porcher Skytex 32g and 38g on top and 32g on the bottom surface is the most durable and light option available in the market today. We have opted for this combination as a non-compromise approach giving the Panorama great durability and above all an awesome handling. PANORAMA 32 is a new addition to our range and it delives the same qualities, construction and the sweet handling found on the bigger sizes. The 32 was designed mainly for use in strong winds. We have kept the same clip in weight-range as the 39 but due to the higher wing-loading, the 32 can and is desigend to be flown in much stronger winds. The Panorama 32 is also suitable for smaller pilots and the perfomance is outstanding in both climb and glide. The sweet stop for thermic flights on the 32 is 130-150kgs **TECHNICAL DATA** | ** ** | ###### 32 | 39 | ###### 41 | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | ##### FLAT AREA | 32.50m2 | 33.15m2 | 41.15m2 | | ##### PROJECTED AREA | 27.85m2 | 33.15m2 | 35.3m2 | | ##### FLAT WINGSPAN | 13.6m | 14.5m | 14.9m | | ##### PROJECTED SPAN | 10.5m | 11.4m | 11.8m | | ##### ASPECT RATIO | 5.4 | 5.4 | 5.4 | | ##### PROJECTED AR | 3.9m | 3.9m | 3.9m | | ##### MAX CHORD | 3.01m | 3.38m | 3.49m | | ##### NUMBER OF CELLS | 54 | 54 | 54 | | ##### GLIDER WEIGHT | 6.3 | 6.6 | 6.7 | | ##### TRIMMERS | 110mm | 110mm | 110mm | | ##### TAKE OFF WEIGHT | 110-190 kgs | 110-190 kgs | 120-220 kgs | | ##### CERTIFICATION | EN 926-1 | EN-B/ LTF | EN-B/ LTF | **MATERIALS** | UPPER SURFACE | Porcher Skytex 38/32 | | --- | --- | | BOTTOM SURFACE | Procher Skytex 32 | | PROFILES | MYUNGIN TEX 32 hard | | DIAGONALS | MYUNGIN TEX 32 hard | | TOP LINES | Liros PPSL-120 | | MIDDLE LINES | Liros PPSL-200/160 | | MAIN LINES | Edelrid 7343-280/420 | | BRAKE LINE | Liros PPSL-200 | | RISERS WEBBING | Guth & Wolth GMBH 20mm zero stretch polyester webbing | ### COLOURS ### Specifications | Size | Orange, Lime, Red | | --- | --- | | Size | 32, 39, 41 | --- ## Gin Atlas 2 {#gin-atlas-2} *Price: $3,950.00* - PRODUCT DETAILS The Atlas 2 is an easy intermediate wing for beginning and leisure pilots who want a confidence-inspiring wing that still offers great XC possibilities. The Atlas 2 aims to offer comfort in a wide range of conditions but with enough performance in climb and glide to keep a smile on your face. **During the development of the Atlas 2, one of the aspects the Gin R&D team worked on was optimising the 3D shaping and sail tension for increased performance. Chief designer Gin Seok Song explains:** “The Atlas 2 project enabled us to use the latest technology from our competition wings in a lower-aspect ratio design. Optimising the 3D shaping and sail tension gave us a bit more performance, and also a better feeling in the air. The glider is more damped in pitch which means that you don’t lose energy when gliding in moving air. The Atlas 2 also has a tendency to sniff out thermals by turning towards the core. And then, once you’re inside a thermal, the low aspect ratio and inherent stability help you get the most out of every thermal core, even the more turbulent ones. We also worked on making the wing as easy to launch as possible, especially in stronger winds. Take-offs are a critical moment of a flight, so it’s really important that the wing comes up progressively and smoothly and doesn’t demand too much from the pilot. There are so many pilots who don’t fly hundreds of hours a year and who just want to reduce their exposure to risk without losing too much of the fun factor. For these pilots, we think the Atlas hits the sweet spot.” **Colors Available** **** **Included with your glider** **** - easy inflation and smooth take-off - well-damped pitch control in strong conditions - comfortable and reassuring handling with a well co-ordinated turn - long and progressive brake travel for a wide safety margin - useful ”thermal sniffing” ability - improved real world performance in weak and strong conditions - extended weight range (S and M sizes) for flying at higher wing loadings - TECHNICAL DETAILS - Optimized airfoil with 2nd generation Equalized Pressure Technology (EPT) for stability and performance - Low line consumption: 3 risers / 2 main lines spanwise - Internal construction with well chosen crossports maintains even sail tension - Nylon rods in top sail trailing edge help maintain the shape of the profile in turbulence, which means better performance - Low friction rings on the brake lines provide smooth operation and prevent twisting and are easily replaceable - Split ‘A’ risers for easy big ears - Mini-ribs on the trailing edge improve handling and performance - Efficient speed system with Ronstan pulleys - Gathering (reefing) system on the trailing edge for smooth and well-defined handling - Nylon rods are soft, shape-retaining and durable, but can be easily replaced if necessary - TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS **SIZE** **XXS** **XS** **S** **M** **L** **XL** ** FLAT** ** AREA** 21.61m2 22.89m2 24.94m2 27.08m2 29.31m2 31.62m2 ** SPAN** 10.61m 10.92m 11.40m 11.88m 12.36m 12.84m ** A.R** 5.21 5.21 5.21 5.21 5.21 5.21 ** PROJECTED** ** AREA** 18.62m2 19.73m2 21.49m2 23.34m2 25.26m2 27.25m2 ** SPAN** 8.47m 8.72m 9.11m 9.49m 9.87m 10.25m ** A.R** 3.86 3.86 3.86 3.86 3.86 3.86 ** CELL NUMBER** 47 47 47 47 47 47  **CHORD** 2.57m 2.65m 2.76m 2.88m 2.99m 3.11m ** GLIDER WEIGHT** 4.5kg 4.8kg 5.1kg 5.4kg 5.8kg 6.2kg ** RECOMMENDED WEIGHT IN FLIGHT** 55-75kg 65-85kg 75-95kg 85-105kg 95-116kg 105-125kg  **EXTENDED WEIGHT IN FLIGHT** 75-100kg 85-110kg ** EN / LTF** B B B B B B - MANUALSOwner’s Manual **EN Test Reports** - English - German - XS - S - M - L - XL ### Specifications | Size | XXS, S, M, L, XL | | --- | --- | | Colour | Curacao, Papaya, Rasperry, Apple | --- ## Ozone Tandem Spreader Light {#ozone-tandem-spreader-light} *Price: $150.00* Lightweight tandem spreader for weight-conscious tandem operations.

The Fuse 2 was our most successful tandem ever, and the Fuse 3 builds on this platform. Notable improvements are an enhanced big ears control system and even more durable fabric yet in a lighter package: As with the Fuse 2, the trim settings and wide weight range offer versatility for light pilots and passengers. The wing can also be flown solo. **Design notes** *Test pilot Tim Bollinger explains the philosophy behind the Fuse3:* “The Fuse 2 was our most successful tandem ever and has gained a big fan base in the professional tandem business all over the world, thanks to it being both easy to use and a pleasure to fly. That made it really challenging for us to improve this glider even more, especially as everyone was totally happy with the predecessor. But after one year of development and extensive testing in Korea, France and Switzerland we were finally happy with the new Fuse 3. The Fuse series has always been known for its excellent take-off abilities in all conditions, its good performance and precise, playful handling. It was important to keep these qualities whilst introducing some new developments. On the Fuse 3, we introduce a brand new fabric developed by GIN with Myungjin. It offers an extraordinary weight-to-durability ratio and is the result of over two years of testing and development all over the world in different conditions. Its coating is a PU- based composite, which makes it extremely durable, despite being lighter than the fabric we were using on the Fuse 2. Although Myungjin is new to paragliding, they have many years’ experience in airsports fabrics for rescue parachutes. As a Korean company, close collaboration with Gin Gliders was a natural move. Myunjin have long been developing a new PU-based composite coating. After years of successful laboratory tests and extensive testing of the new fabric on various prototypes all over the world, we are happy. The Myungjin, MJ40MF (40 g) and MJ32MF (32 g) have shown excellent porosity and strength test results both in the laboratory, and also under real conditions. We believe the fabric offers a real advantage on a glider like the Fuse 3, as tandem gliders are inherently exposed to abrasion and wear on take off, landing and repetitive packing. With the new fabric being also lighter, the wing weighs in at 7.2kg, making the Fuse 3 one of the lightest everyday tandems on the market. This lightness makes the wing both compact on the ground and agile in the air. We also worked a lot on the trimming of the brakes. Brake pressure has slightly decreased, and the handling is even more agile now. While you do not feel any difference in calm air, you have more control over the glider in rough air and you can turn tighter, making use of even small bubbles. The new brake setting helps also on the landing and increases the energy retention on the flair, which was already very good in the Fuse 2. Based on the feedback from various professional tandem pilots in France we introduced a new big ear system on the risers. Now it is much easier and faster to pull and release the big ears. In addition to that, the pilot can still use the brakes and steer the glider. This especially helps on tricky top landings as the glide ratio can be easily adjusted. We also took care to make the trimmers easy to change. Although we use the best available material on our trimmers, there is always some wear after extensive use. It is now possible to replace the trimmer webbing in just a few steps. Overall we’re very happy with the Fuse 3 and hope tandem pilots will be too!” **Colors Available** - innovative big ears system makes it much easier to hold and release or even control with brakes - exclusive, silicon-coated, durable-yet-lightweight fabric developed by GIN and Myungjin - easy inflation and smoother take-off - minimal shooting in strong conditions - precise and well coordinated turn with super-light brake pressure - first-class “thermal sniffing” ability - great energy retention with trim off, or super-soft, progressive braking with trim neutral - improved real-world performance in weak and strong conditions alike - more durable yet lighter canopy fabric - “Trim neutral” position indicator on risers - replaceable trimmer webbing - TECHNICAL DETAILS - - Optimized airfoil with Equalized Pressure Technology (EPT) for stability, handling and performance - Exclusive new fabric developed by GIN and Myungjin offers outstanding durability with light weight - Fully sheathed Edelrid lines for the best compromise of durability and performance - Thin profile improves take-off and reduces material weight - Line and riser layout optimized for big ears (large area of A3 and split A-riser) - Clamp cleat system to lock big ears in place - Long trimmers (11cm) enable greater penetration, for example in strong valley winds.

Easy to manage on take-off and landing With a surface area of only 34m², the Osprey is easy to manage on take-off. Compared to a conventionally sized tandem, a greater margin of safety is possible in stronger winds. Despite the reduced area, landing remains comfortable, even in nil wind. The EPT (Equalised Pressure Technology) airfoil enables a low stall speed with good energy retention and a well-defined flare window. Speed and stability The Osprey has a wide speed range and a high maximum speed. The 11cm trimmer is uniquely long and the wing remains stable at even the highest speeds. In addition, a 2cm negative trim allows the pilot to set a lower trim speed. The glider is certified EN B across the entire weight range of 100-210kg. A versatile all-rounder The Osprey fills the gaps left by other tandems on the market. The unique design reduces the number of lines and the three riser levels make sorting of the lines straightforward. It’s also well suited for soaring in stronger winds, and its direct and responsive handling makes thermal flying a pure joy. - MORE DETAILS - +11cm / -2cm trimmer - Equalized Pressure Technology (EPT) - ‘S-inlets’ for better inflation - 3 risers / 3 lines spanwise - Split A risers for easy big ears - cleat on C-riser to fix A3-line in the big ear position - Colour-coded lines for easy identification - Strong and durable materials - Trailing edge mini-ribs - three different tandem spreaders available: light, supple (soft) and rigid (hard) - also certified as a solo wing - TECHNICAL DETAILS Size 34 Flat area (m2) 34.00 Flat span (m) 12.77 Flat aspect ratio 4.8 Projected area (m2) 29.5 Projected span (m) 10.3 Projected aspect ratio 3.59 Chord (m) 3.3 Number of cells 36 Glider weight (kg) 7.1 Weight range (kg) 100-210 Certification EN B **MATERIALS****Canopy cloth** *Upper surface*: Dominico 30D (water repellent) 41g/m² *Lower surface*: Dominico 30D (water repellent) 41g/m² **Lines** *Upper*: Liros DSL 70 / PPSL 120 / GIN TGL 80 *Middle*: Liros DSL 70 / PPSL 120 / 200 *Main*: Edelrid 7343-280 | 420 | Gin Gliders TGL 400 - ### Specifications | Color | Ice | | --- | --- | --- ## Play 42 MK II {#play-42-mk-ii} Double your Fun Certification: Afnor – Tandem Play42 MK II / UL proved itself a masterpiece of engineering and construction.

The Vantage 3 also uses an increased number of upper lines for greater stability, yet the total line consumption is minimised thanks to careful optimisation of the line layout. The 3 risers and 2 span wise main lines offer both simplicity and performance. Easy to inflate, fast to lift off As a light wing, the Vantage 3 is simple to inflate even in less than ideal conditions. It requires only the gentlest pull yet comes up smoothly to a stable overhead position. What’s more, the aerodynamic characteristics of the profile result in the wing becoming airborne very quickly, ideal for short take-off runs. Ideal for light trikes The easy inflation and take-off characteristics also make the Vantage 3 ideal for light trike use. The wing has a natural tendency to stabilise in the centre. User-friendly speed system The Vantage 3 speed system is highly versatile, user-friendly and safe. 40% of the speed increase is provided by the trimmers, 60% by the speed bar. At the same time, it’s possible to use 100% of the brake range in all flight configurations (trim, open trimmers, accelerated). ## DESIGNER NOTES *Test pilot Laurent Salinas explains the philosophy of the Vantage 3:* “Our target with Matt Minyard was to bring the advantages of lightweight paragliding wings to beginner and intermediate paramotor pilots, especially pilots looking to practice paragliding and paramotoring with the same wing. We felt it was important to make a wing with easy inflation and take-off. This helps a lot for light trike use and the lighter canopy is also ideal for bivouac flying. We also worked a lot to achieve the right mix of security and agile, fun handling. The shorter risers help a lot with this and speed increases are easy to manage. Speed increase is provided by both the trimmers (40%) and the speed bar (60%) and you can use the full brake range in all flight configurations (trim, open trimmers, accelerated). We also significantly reduced the torque effect compared to the Vantage 2. All in all, the wing put a smile on our faces and we are confident it will do the same for you!” ## DETAILS - Second generation Equalized Pressure Technology (EPT) profile significantly improves stability across the entire speed range - 3 line risers, 2 lines spanwise for simplicity and performance - Easy Big Ears system - Extended weight range (24, 26 and 28 sizes) for flying at higher wing loadings - Combination of unsheathed and sheathed aramid and dyneema lines - Lightweight mini-ribs on the trailing edge ## SIZE GUIDE ## MATERIALS **Canopy cloth** *Upper surface leading edge*: Dominco 3RS 41g/m² (water repellent) *Upper surface*: Dominco HD34 (water repellent) 34g/m² *Lower surface*: Porcher Skytex (water repellent) 27g/m² **Lines** *Upper*: DSL 70 | PPSL120 | PPSL65 *Middle*: PPSL 160 | 200 *Main*: PPSL 275 | 350 | TGL220 ### Specifications | Size | 22, 24, 26, 28 | | --- | --- | | Colour | Green, Orange | --- ## Thrust V {#thrust-v} Best Option for Paramotor and Paragliding  Certification: DGAC The APCO Thrust is one of the longest standing wings in our range. Thrust is a beginner / intermediate classic (non-reflex) wing, which is simple to use, safe and easy to progress with. It is universally liked and has withstood the test of time throughout the evolution of paramotor wings. The Thrust V continues the legacy of the Thrust, but is a completely new wing – updated with latest technology available! - FAR ® – Flow Aligned Ribs – Thrust V is the first model to incorporate this feature ! It is the correct way to position the ribs of the glider – simply explained the tips will generate more lift!  This additional lift improves performance and more importantly, the safety and stability of the wing. - APP ® – shark nose profile allows higher maximum speed while retaining a more constant internal pressure – the canopy is rigid, boosting confidence to novice pilots. - Butt holes 2 – as the name suggests, these holes will easily allow release of any sand or debris collected inside the canopy. - Launch – SRS® risers aids Launch, bringing the wing overhead quickly and effortlessly with no overshooting, making forward launch second nature for any pilot. - Risers – Redesigned, simplified riser, with 2 different attachment point options for any harness motor combination Take Off and Landing – As easy as it gets, contrary to reflex profiles, the Thrust has a high lift, classic profile. This allows the wing to take off and land at the slowest speeds possible. The risers are cluster free, simple to operate and understand. This wing will be perfect for schooling as there is no simpler or quicker way to get airborne. Handling – reconfigured – the wing is now more agile, quicker to respond with less brake pressure. The FAR® and Shark Nose allowed us to improve the Thrust V for sharper handling without undermining any other parameter. Speed – the maximum speed of Thrust V is increased to up to 55+ [km/h] – outstandingly fast for this class! This is due to the APP® shark nose profile which allows higher speeds without compromising safety. Construction – built to last. APCO’s legendary double siliconised cloth together with other lighter types of material will guarantee more hours of enjoyment than any other wing. Lines – all sheathed for maximum protection in all conditions. Paragliding – leave the trimmers closed and the Thrust V becomes a well rounded paragliding wing to enjoy both disciplines. Schools opting for a non-reflex wing for students, will find Thrust V to be the perfect wing, making it easier for both the pilot and the teaching process. ## More Information ### Technical Data | Size | Small | Medium | Large | X-Large | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Cells | 42 | 44 | 46 | 48 | | Area [m2] | 27.3 | 29.3 | 31.3 | 33.3 | | Area (projected) [m2] | 23.4 | 25.2 | 26.9 | 28.6 | | Span [m] | 11.58 | 12.20 | 12.90 | 13.50 | | Span (projected) [m] | 9.32 | 9.85 | 10.4 | 10.9 | | Aspect Ratio | 4.91 | 5.08 | 5.31 | 5.47 | | Aspect Ratio (projected) | 3.71 | 3.85 | 4.02 | 4.15 | | Pilot Weight (all up + paramotor unit) [kg] | 70-125 | 85-145 | 100-165 | 110-185 | | Pilot Weight (all up) free flight [kg] | 65-85 | 80-100 | 95-120 | 110-140 | | Canopy Weight [kg] | 5.7 | 6.0 | 6.3 | 6.6 | | Root Cord m | 3.03 | 3.03 | 3.03 | 3.03 | | Tip Chord [m] | 0.58 | 0.58 | 0.58 | 0.58 | | Length of Lines on B [m] | 6.6 | 7.0 | 7.4 | 7.7 | | Total Length of Lines [m] | 399 | 413 | 432 | 472 | ### Performance | V-min [km/h] | 21 | | --- | --- | | V-trim [km/h] | 37 | | V-trim off @ optimum wing load | 45 | | V-max @ optimum wing load | 50+ | | Min Sink [m/s] at optimal wing loading | 1.1 | ### Construction The glider is made from tear resistant Ripstop Nylon cloth, which is P.U. coated to zero porosity and then siliconized to give the fabric high resistance to the elements.

Climbing is efficient even at high wing loadings, and thus the wing works well with a wide range of trike and motor units. Thanks to the profile and long 11cm trimmers, the speed range is wide and the glide performance good. Overall, the evidence of this efficiency is revealed by the favourable fuel consumption figures. ### Effortless take off and landing The Condor is easy to manage on the ground and inflates smoothly and evenly in all flyable conditions. And because the Condor profile produces a lot of lift at low airspeeds, you’ll get airborne quickly with just a short take-off run. ### Wide weight range The Condor has a wide weight range which makes it suitable for trike use, in addition to foot launched PPG. The 2 available sizes cover a weight range of 110-405kg. ### Technical details • Optimized airfoil with Equalized Pressure Technology (EPT) for stability, handling and performance • Thinner profile improves take-off and reduces material weight • Line and riser layout optimized for big ears (large area of A3 and split A-riser) • Clamp cleat system to lock big ears in place • Long trimmers (11cm) enable greater penetration, for example in strong valley winds. The slightly negative and large positive trimmers allows you to adjust the speed over the whole weight range. • 20mm technora and polyester riser • Supplied with XXL rucksack ### Specifications | Size | 37, 41 | | --- | --- | | Colour | Flamingo, Curacao | --- ## XC Tracer Mini V {#xc-tracer-mini-v} *Price: $590.00* --- ## Game MKII {#game-mkii} The Game is On – Game For Two Tandem Paraglider  Certification: En B Tandem The **GAME Mark 2** (MKII) is based on our successful Game 42 and introduces several upgrades and an additional new smaller size, 39 [Sqm]. The main improvements are: - Available in 2 sizes: 42 and 39 Square meters. - NEW riser system with longer trims that extend the speed range. The additional extra speed range can be locked or unlocked by removing a shackle on the risers, depending on your needs. See video >> - A fresh color design that incorporates our legendary long lasting Gelvenor fabric on the top of the wing for maximum  durability while optimizing overall weight of the canopy. - 3D Cut – A new 3D cut on the Leading Edge is seamlessly incorporated into the design, resulting in a cleaner sail and hence improved performance. - Replaceable Trim System – Easily replaceable trim webbing for long lasting trouble free operation. Talked about for years, the GAME 42 is a truly remarkable wing, incorporating smart internal structure and our Automatic Pressurising Profile, producing wing characteristics that will impress even the most experienced pilots. Tandem flying is always a thrill for a first time passenger, but with this wing the real game is for the pilot! The Game 42 feels much more like a single wing than a tandem. When flying you will soon forget it is a tandem over your head as this thermalling machine spirals you up to the top of the stack – and all of this with a friend on board. **CONSTRUCTION** Longevity of tandem wing is one of the main parameters considered by tandem pilots. Apco’s well known Gelvenor cloth has been proven over many years as the best there is for durability and longevity. Revised, careful blend of Gelvenor and other lighter types of cloth and materials will guarantee many more hours of service for the Game 42 . We at APCO believe that on Game MKII commercial pilots will be able to put in significantly more hours before trashing, compared to market standard – making each hour of flight significantly less costly (APCO wings are known for their sturdy, durable construction and this wing will continue the legacy) **PARAMOTOR**Game MKII is equally great for both free flying and for paramotor tandem flying. Tandem foot launching with paramotor can be challenging, but the Game MKII easy launch and short take-off run will make it a breeze with any passenger. Game MKII high efficiency allows its use even with the smallest and weakest engines, making it the #1 choice for many pilots flying light tandem trikes. **CERTIFICATION** Game 42 MKII is certified in EN-B, LTF B Class APCO also performed thorough in-house intensive test flight sequence to verify that the wing is in-line with expectations on every parameter. Additional DGAC approval for paramotor use. ## Game 42 Mk II Riser Video *Risers / trims in the extended range configuration are factory tested and approved, but out of the official frame of certification. ## More Information ### Technical Data | Size | 39 | | 42 | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Product Code | 27200 | | 27100 | | Cells | 50 | | 52 | | Area [m2] | 39.6 | | 42.5 | | Area (projected) [m2] | 34.9 | | 37.1 | | Span(incl.

ZEFIRA is of Hebrew origin meaning Morning star, lighting up the skies. And ZEFIRA will indeed be a rising star in the paragliding skies. APCO as policy, did not launch competition gliders for almost a decade, concentrating instead on so called “normal gliders”. Having a top class reputation built on such world beating paragliders like Bagheera, Astra, Xtra and Tigra, reentry into competition scene obligated us to bring a glider which must exceed your most optimistic expectations. Over the past 2 years, we invested a significant effort in developing a new generation of FAI Class 1 Competition wing named ENIGMA and in parallel developing a new high end EN-D Class wing. ENIGMA was introduced just before Paragliding World Championship 2011 in Spain. Unfortunately, the FAI Class 1 wings were banned following the events at the Championship, making ENIGMA obsolete. But the effort invested into developing ENIGMA was not wasted and experience gained fully implemented into our latest creation – ZEFIRA. The ZEFIRA, based on ENIGMA revolutionary technology, was conceived as a high end wing, capable of competing with any certified wing. Our mission with ZEFIRA was to maximize the performance making it competitive with EN-D Class certified wings on the scene at that time. Having this in mind, we did not neglect the true performance, but kept the stability, handling and safety of ZEFIRA comfortably manageable. ## More Information ### Technical Data | Size | Medium | Large | | --- | --- | --- | | Cells | 63 | 63 | 63 | | Area [m2] | 25.3 | 27.1 | 28.9 | | Area (projected) [m2] | 21.59 | 23.13 | 24.66 | | Span [m] | 13.17 | 13.63 | 14.08 | | Span (projected) [m] | 10.37 | 10.73 | 11.09 | | Aspect Ratio | 6.86 | 6.86 | 6.86 | | Aspect Ratio (projected) | 4.98 | 4.98 | 4.98 | | Pilot Weight (all up) free flight [kg] | 75-105 | 90-115 | 105-130 | | Canopy Weight [kg] | 5.9 | 6.3 | 6.7 | | Root Cord m | 2.38 | 2.46 | 2.48 | | Tip Chord [m] | 0.45 | 0.46 | 0.48 | | Length of Lines on B [m] | 7.71 | 7.98 | 8.23 | | Total Length of Lines [m] | 285 | 303 | 322 | ### Performance | V-min [km/h] | 22 | | --- | --- | | V-trim [km/h] | 39 | | V-max [km/h] | 55+ | | Min Sink [m/s] at optimal wing loading | 0.9 | The glider is made from tear resistant Ripstop Nylon cloth, which is P.U. coated to zero porosity and then siliconized to give the fabric high resistance to the elements.

Ideal for wagga sessions and working on acro skills, it’s also a wing that will let you thermal all day, or even go cross-country. ### **From freestyle to acro** The Gangster’s precise, agile character makes it ideal for freestyle and wagga. Playing with obstacles is effortless and fun, and despite the dynamic feel, the glider retains a comfortable safety margin. The Gangster is also acro-ready. Brake inputs translate quickly and precisely into motion and all basic acrobatic maneuvers are possible. SAT’s, helicopters and big wingovers have never been easier. The wing has a clearly defined stall point and a firm brake pressure, which helps you learn the timing for deep stall and helicopters. ### **From relaxed thermalling to thrilling maneuvers** While some freestyle gliders can be difficult to thermal, the Gangster has excellent climbing characteristics – you can thermal comfortably all day long. Be free to choose your flying style according to your mood! When it comes to maneuvers, the deep stall is easier to achieve and the glider shoots less during recovery. With the Gangster 2, we took the lower sail vents from our acro wing, the Rage, and went a step further. The vents span between the B/C and C/D lines in the center of the wing. This helps to enhance the internal pressure during negative maneuvers. ### **Choose the size that suits your style** The Gangster 2 is available in 2 sizes. Size 22 is certified EN C, whereas the size 20 shares the same essential flying characteristics. Both sizes are load tested (EN 926-1) to over 12g with a load of 120kg. In fact, thanks to the latest state-of-the-art construction techniques, the load test was actually done until 14751N! ### **Technical details** – Air vents on the bottom surface for better internal pressure in negative maneuvers – Light but durable construction – 4-line design for better support across the entire chord, especially the rear of the glider during deep stall maneuvers – Fabric selected for the ideal compromise between durability and lightweight: 38g/m2 front top and bottom and 32g/m2 rear top and bottom - MATERIALS **Materials** **Top and Bottom surface leading edge:** Porcher Skytex 9017 E25 38g/m2 **Top and Bottom surface rear:** Porcher Skytex 70032 E3W 32g/m2 **Ribs:** Porcher Skytex 9017 E29A (diagonal, loaded, band) / Porcher Skytex 70032 E4D 32g/m2 (unloaded, half- ribs) **Lines: **Upper: Liros DC60 | Edelrid 8000/U-050 Mid: Edelrid 8000/U-050 | 090 | 130 Main / brake: Liros PPSL 160 | 120 | Gin Gliders TGL180 |080 ### Specifications | Size | 20 (70-95kg), 22 (85-110kg) | | --- | --- | --- ## Gin Yeti 5 {#gin-yeti-5} *Price: $4,000.00* - PRODUCT DETAILS IN A WORLD OF ITS OWN The Yeti 5 is a light wing suitable for a wide range of pilots and uses – from beginners to experienced pilots and from leisurely hike and flys to mountain adventures.

Whether yours is a lone journey of self-discovery, or one that is silently observed by thousands, the Lynx is for serious athletes and experienced pilots who want to get out there in nature and experience the thrills of adventure flying first-hand. ## DESCRIPTION Based on the Cure, The Lynx is a streamlined, fully-fledged XC predator. Her refined simplicity makes her faster, lighter, more elegant and competitive while the EN-C certification offers reassurance for experienced pilots. The Lynx has new BGD LITE risers using three strands of 13mm webbing and a performance-optimised speed system. With a new Edelrid Magix pro 8000U comp line set and Porcher Sport’s new laterally reinforced Skytex 32g/m² lightweight cloth, the Lynx is at the leading edge of the game. She is cunning, agile, and will take you to the top of the food chain. ## BRUCE’S NOTES Are you the diehard pilot that is on the hill rain or shine, or do you pick and choose your days? Does your launch look like a putting green or the surface of Mars? One glider can’t be perfect for everything so I designed the BGD LITE collection for pilots who want less weight and improved portability with added performance*. Designing the highest performing sports class glider in the BGD LITE collection was intriguing, challenging, and rewarding since the improvements are clear. It was originally for the Red Bull X-Alps but quickly evolved into a more versatile glider. I started with the Cure template and reworked it almost from the ground up, simplifying, re-calculating, and adding all the latest materials. All of the BGD range follows this design philosophy and the BGD LITE collection just pushes it a little harder. *At a small cost in durability. ## PACKAGE INCLUDES - Paraglider - Rucksack - BGD T-shirt - USB stick with manuals - BGD stickers - Stuff sack - Compression strap ## COLOUR OPTION Sahara Mojave ## DESIGN FEATURES **Cord Cut Billow (CCB)** Cord Cut Billow technology has been developed to improve the form friction, glider stability and overall performance of our paragliders. Two seams run chord-wise across the top panels of the leading edge to accommodate the panel ballooning that happens when the wing is inflated. Up to five centimetres of excess material is created on the sides of an inflated flat panel bending over a wing profile. Cord Cut Billow technology absorbs the material with a 3D panel resulting in fewer ripples and improved rib profile shape and stability. **BGD Leading edge mini ribs** Situated along the top of the leading edge are plastic wire reinforced mini-ribs that act to reinforce the panels while on speed bar. This reduces deformation caused by the high air speed improving speed and performance. **Porcher Skytex 32** The Lynx utilizes Porcher Sport’s new lighter, stronger Skytex 32g/m² cloth. This cloth is specifically designed for paragliders and is laterally reinforced – paragliders have more tension across the span. **Strong Shark nose** An ultra aggressive shark nose optimises stability at all speeds. Not all sharks are created equal and BGD’s shark noses are very aggressive, maximizing the effects of the technology. **Minimal line consumption** Optimising the line layout of a glider is an extremely complex science; we are constantly developing our analytical techniques to improve line design. A wing’s internal structure evolves simultaneously with line layout, and together these design aspects offer better support for reduced line consumption and drag. The Lynx uses new Edelrid Magix pro 8000U lines and has a total line length of just 244m (M). **Snap Locks** Snap Locks are lightweight compact attachments that effortlessly connect brakes to the risers with a small focused magnet inside the catch and an internal locking system that holds the handle in every direction except down toward the pilot. This unique design feature means the handles don’t fall off while kiting, packing, or performing manoeuvres. The Snap Lock system solves many of the problems associated with press-studs and magnets. **60 enhanced cells** Cord Cut Billow and new leading edge mini-ribs allow us to lower the number of full cells while gaining the characteristics of a high cell count paraglider. This creates a lighter, cleaner, simpler paraglider. **Light and durable** The Lynx is constructed with an obsessively careful mix of lightweight, robust, and proven materials. From UV resistant colours to carefully chosen cloth angles across the cells, everything is designed to minimise unnecessary weight while maximizing durability. **Progressive stability** The LYNX is designed to warn experienced pilots of light-to-moderate turbulence, rather than suddenly completely collapsing when things get really unruly. Bruce’s article in Cross Country magazine, ‘Shifting Our Thinking on Safety’, explains how “A wing that is super stable and almost never collapses can lead to more accidents, because when it does collapse the pilot is not prepared and has little experience of how to deal with the situation”. Any wing will collapse given enough turbulence. A small deflation in medium turbulence is easier to deal with and therefore safer than a big collapse in strong turbulence. ### Specifications | Size | S, M, ML, L | | --- | --- | | Color | Mojave (Blue), Sahara (Orange) | --- ## Gin Explorer {#gin-explorer} *Price: $4,100.00* - PRODUCT DETAILS The Explorer is a lightweight performance wing aimed at seasoned XC pilots who want to fly a wing that’s comfortable, responsive and goes! New colors for 2019 Comfortable yet responsive The handling of the Explorer has an alluring balance of smoothness and lightness.  The wing is supremely well co-ordinated. It’s damped and forgiving in pitch, yet the precision in the turn makes it a first-class climber in thermals. Take-off and landing couldn’t be simpler and the wing has an uncanny ability to seek out the best thermal cores. Performance The Explorer is also made for comfortable high-speed gliding during cross country flying. Direct C-riser control works very well and the lack of unnecessary C handles keeps everything simple and lightweight. Lightweight Naturally, the Explorer is light, at under 4kg for the M size. In fact, it’s one of the lightest wings in its category, as a result of optimization of the internal structure and the careful selection of canopy and line materials. The wide range of sizes and extended weight range offers flexibility in sizing choice according to your preferred wing loading. Extended weight range Even when highly loaded, the Explorer shows good performance and excellent recovery characteristics. For this reason, we decided to certify the wing with a +5kg extended weight range for more experienced pilots who may sometimes want to fly with a higher wing loading. For general flying, the Explorer is best flown within the normal weight range according to your preference. - Orange - Blue ### Technical details - Optimized airfoil with Equalized Pressure Technology (EPT) for stability and performance - Unsheathed aramid lines with optimized diameters - 3 risers / 3 lines spanwise - Colour-coded stabilo line for easy identification - Optimized internal construction and line attachment points to maintain even sail tension - Mini-ribs on the trailing edge improve handling and performance - Speed system with Harken pulleys - Gathering (reefing) system on the trailing edge # Technical Specifications | ** SIZE** | XXS | **XS** | S | M | L | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | ** FLAT** | ** AREA** | 20.1m2 | 21.6m2 | 23.6m2 | 25.5m2 | 27.6m2 | | ** SPAN** | 11.07m | 11.48m | 12.00m | 12.47m | 12.95m | | ** A.R** | 6.1 | 6.1 | 6.1 | 6.1 | 6.1 | | ** PROJECTED** | ** AREA** | 17.11m2 | 18.39m2 | 20.09m2 | 21.71m2 | 23.41m2 | | ** SPAN** | 8.85m | 9.18m | 9.59m | 9.97m | 10.35m | | ** A.R** | 4.58 | 4.58 | 4.58 | 4.58 | 4.58 | | ** CELL NUMBER** | 59 | 59 | 59 | 59 | 59 | | ** GLIDER WEIGHT*** | 3.2kg | 3.4kg | 3.7kg | 3.9kg | 4.1kg | | ** WEIGHT IN FLIGHT** | 55-75kg | 65-85kg | 75-95kg | 85-105kg | 95-115kg | | ** EXTENDED WEIGHT RANGE** | – | – | 75-100kg | 85-110kg | 95-120kg | | ** EN / LTF** | B | B | B | B | B | - MATERIALS Canopy cloth Top surface: Porcher Skytex 32 / 27 Bottom surface: Porcher Skytex 27 Ribs: Porcher Skytex 27 Lines Main/upper/middle: Edelrid 8000- 050, 070, 090, 130, 150, 190, 280, 360 ### Specifications | Size | XXS, XS, S, M, L | | --- | --- | | Colour | Orange, Blue | --- ## Enigma {#enigma} Apco’s Comp Wing – Unlock the Secret  Certification: FAI CAT 1 ENIGMA – Dictionary definition: “A type of riddle generally expressed in language that requires ingenuity and careful thinking for its solution” Ingenuity and careful thinking that’s what was applied to achieve the final outcome (not to mention experience, deep knowledge, devotion and persistence in sticking to the goal).

Its performance, safety, and weight have been optimised for long vol-bivouac flights and hike-and-fly. ## DESCRIPTION Extra water, food or wine could make up for the almost 1.1 kg of weight we have skimmed off the Dual (without losing much durability). With a mix of carefully allocated 27, 34, and 40 gramme cloth the EN-B certified Dual LITE feels like its parent – power steering, loads of feedback, and efficient characteristics. ## FLYING STYLE ## SPECIFICATIONS ## BRUCE’S NOTES Just after Tyr was born I was trying to convince Arna that paragliders are as nice as hang gliders. I wanted to charm her into the sport with a lovely XC flight. We took off one sunny morning from Séderon, France and headed into the heart of the Vercors. It was a glorious flying day. We soared low and slow along cliffs and over grazing deer. We caressed the cumulus clouds with our wing tip. I wanted to show her that flying a slow aircraft could be really rewarding. She enjoyed it so much she was constantly attempting to back/front-seat-pilot the tandem. She soon realised it was best to just let go and enjoy the strong thermals. 80km and five hours later, slightly sore but glowing, we landed in La Chapelle-en-Vercors next to a perfect little restaurant where we had dinner. Arna now flies an EN-B Wasp and is a part owner of BGD. I think I convinced her. I designed the Dual LITE to help convince friends/partners/spouses that paragliding is a convenient, adventurous sport. Whether it is a simple hike and fly or a long Vol-bivouac expedition the Dual LITE delivers. Like the Dual, the Dual LITE is a wing that has a very clean leading edge (Cord Cut Billow) making the low cell count (50 cells) feasible thus reducing the weight, line consumption and complexity of the paraglider. I think the Dual LITE really benefits from the Dual’s renowned light handling. Its launching characteristics even surprised me – the wing floats up with very little effort from the pilot. ## MATERIALS Top surface front: Dominico D30 soft Top surface rear: Porcher 7000 Universal 27g/m² Bottom surface: Porcher 7000 Universal 27g/m² Ribs: Porcher 70032 hard 32g/m² hard finish Internal: Porcher 70032 hard 32 g/m² hard finish Nose reinforcing: Plastic wire 2.5mm and 2.0 mm Risers: 20mm black nylon Top lines: Liros DC100 & 160 Middle lines: Liros TSL140, 220, 280 Lower lines: Liros TSL 500, 380, 280, 220 Brakes: Liros DSL70, PPSL120, DSL350 ## PRODUCTION FILM ## PACKAGE INCLUDES - Paraglider - Rucksack - Light spreaders - 2 karabiners - Replacement trimmers - BGD T-shirt - USB stick with manuals - BGD stickers - Repair kit - Break handle inserts - Stuff sack - Riser bag - Compression strap ## DESIGN FEATURES **For the mountains** Designed from the already very efficiently constructed Dual, the Dual LITE is an ultra light mountain version. **Power Steering** The Dual LITE has been designed to respond quickly on the brakes with light brake pressure giving the feeling of ‘power steering’. This makes the Dual’s handling close to that of a solo wing. **Cord Cut Billow (CCB)** Cord Cut Billow technology has been developed to improve the form friction, glider stability and overall performance of our paragliders. Two seams run chord-wise across the top panels of the leading edge to accommodate the panel ballooning that happens when the wing is inflated. Up to five centimetres of excess material is created on the sides of an inflated flat panel bending over a wing profile. Cord Cut Billow technology absorbs the material with a 3D panel resulting in fewer ripples and improved rib profile shape and stability. **Nose Job** We have added plastic in the leading edge to help with inflation, resist wear and tear, and reduce weight overall. We also found a good nose job helps with penetration into lift. **Elliptical Cell Openings** We have found that elliptical cell openings give better lower surface tension making for smoother inflation, and re-inflation after collapses. **Tandem – Trimmers** There is a long positive trimmer range on the Dual giving a very nice speed range. ## **COLOR OPTION** **Titan** **Flame** ### Specifications | Size | Flame, Titan | | --- | --- | --- ## Gin Carve Freestyle Paramotor {#gin-carve-freestyle-paramotor} *Price: $3,600.00* #### Product Details # Power and dynamics for advanced slalom and freestyle pilots If you’re pushing the limits in freestyle or slalom competition, you need a dynamic wing that will help you unlock your full potential whilst always reacting in a precise and predictable way. Developed by Laurent Salinas, Peter Schulz and the GIN R&D team, the Carve could be just the wing that you have been dreaming about! ## Dynamic and responsive The wing is dynamic and responsive, designed to be flown at high wing loadings. with excellent performance, stability and a wide speed range. Advanced pilots will appreciate the control options provided by the 2D steering: depending on your speed and the turn you would like to make, you can either pull down the centre of the glider or only the wing tip. ## Maximum speed and performance The Power Attack system, designed for advanced pilots, offers increased speed and responsiveness by combining trim and accelerator actions. With trim open, the RPM power is also boosted, which means more power when you need it and great fuel economy. ## Stability and ease-of-use Take off is surprisingly simple for such an advanced wing, the wing comes up in a progressive manner and the pilot is quickly airborne. The wing is smooth and well-damped in the air, particularly at speed. Landing is similarly easy, and is even controllable on the brakes with trim open. ## Technical details – Equalized Pressure Technology (EPT) – double hang-point risers suitable for all types of suspension systems – specially developed trim riser for increased speed and decreased torque effect – performance optimized speed system with GIN competition paragliding technology – certification for paramotoring (DGAC) – colour-coded lines for easy identification – strong and durable materials – reflex airfoil – advanced 2D-steering system – Power attack System – highest quality materials used throughout ensure maximum durability ### Specifications | Size | 18 (65~110kg), 20 (75~120kg), 22 (85~130kg), 24 (95~140kg | | --- | --- | | Colour | Ocean, King | --- ## Gin Bolero 6 {#gin-bolero-6} *Price: $3,500.00* #### Product Details ** The instinctive choice** Ever since its first version in 1999, the Bolero has provided a solid foundation for thousands of pilots to develop their skills—from the first steps on the training slopes to soaring effortlessly amongst the clouds. ## Start your flying career the right way The Bolero 6 is intended as a first paraglider, suitable for school use but also for regular pilots who want to fly relaxed. The glider gives just the right amount of feedback to enable pilots to develop instinctive flying skills in a safe, comfortable and progressive manner. ## 2nd generation EPT for improved take-off behaviour The Bolero 6 features the second iteration of EPT (Equalized Pressure Technology), our numerical method of calculating the best possible airfoil parameters for any given profile. Introduced in the Bolero 5, EPT brought many beginner-friendly improvements, such as a long and progressive brake range and a low stall speed. The Bolero 6 features further improvements such as improved take-off behaviour, stability and handling. The Bolero 6 has 3 risers and 3 main lines spanwise per side. The simple riser and reduction in line consumption makes it easier to identify and sort out lines on the ground. ## A well-balanced glider The handling of the Bolero 6 strikes the balance needed to optimally develop a pilot’s flying instincts. The brakes are precise yet forgiving. The turn is responsive and playful, but always co-ordinated and comfortable. The wing gives clean and intelligible feedback which makes it easy to learn about the air, whilst the reduced mini-oscillations ensure that pilots make comfortable progress towards flying in more active air. All this means simply more fun! ## Technical details – 2nd generation Equalized Pressure Technology (EPT) – 3 risers / 3 lines spanwise – Split A risers and clear labelling for easy big ears – labelled B riser (e.g. for B-stall) – Colour-coded lines for easy identification – Strong and durable materials – Trailing edge mini-ribs ### Specifications | Size | XS, S, M, L, XL | | --- | --- | | Colour | Dolfin, Mustard, Tiger, Berry | --- ## Prima IV {#prima-iv} The fun that never Ends Certification: CEN/AFNOR Standard Prima was born in the early 1990’s. Since then thousands have been delivered, faithfully serving in paragliding schools all over the world. Probably the longest produced classic trainer – it is equally well suited for teaching free flying and perfect for entry level paramotoring. Now this classic wing has been modernised once again – the 4th version of the wing has been released on the market. The wing is exactly the same as before, but now with Flexon™ batten system , pioneered by APCO – installed across L/E (today standard on entire APCO range). Prima IV also features improved flare and adaptability for paramotor flying. The canopy is also more rigid (no tip movement), with redesigned, modern handling – direct and responsive in comparison with past designs. The rest of Prima specifications remain the same. As always, produced from bomb proof, indestructible Gelvenor cloth combined with heavy duty lines, to ensure long lasting life. Second generation Gelvenor cloth is much improved – as durable as ever, but significantly lighter without sacrificing any of its famous qualities (you will be surprised by how light it is) The direct benefit of the new Gelvenor is its contribution to even further improved launch and safety – making Prima IV equally well adapted for free flying schooling or paramotor training. Many schools are amazed, unbelievably witnessing the years of service Prima IV can deliver. All this for a low price – specially designed to be affordable for all. As a schooling/entry level glider it is still the best investment on the market. ## More Information ### Technical Data | Size | 22 | 24 | 27 | 30 | 33 | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Cells | 20 | 21 | 23 | 25 | 27 | | Area [m2] | 22.5 | 23.9 | 26.7 | 29.4 | 32.14 | | Area (projected) [m2] | 20.4 | 21.5 | 23.9 | 26.3 | 28.6 | | Span [m] | 8.51 | 8.96 | 9.86 | 10.76 | 11.66 | | Span (projected) [m] | 7.56 | 7.9 | 8.67 | 9.4 | 10.1 | | Aspect Ratio | 3.22 | 3.36 | 3.65 | 3.94 | 4.2 | | Aspect Ratio (projected) | 2.8 | 2.91 | 3.11 | 3.36 | 3.56 | | Pilot Weight (all up) free flight [kg] | 50-65 | 60-78 | 70-90 | 80-100 | 95-120 | | Pilot Weight (all up + paramotor unit) [kg] | 60-100 | 70-115 | 80-125 | 90-135 | 105-155 | | Canopy Weight [kg] | 4.6 | 4.8 | 5.4 | 5.9 | 6.4 | | Length of Lines on B [m] | 5.34 | 5.34 | 5.79 | 5.79 | 6.2 | ### Performance | V-min [km/h] | 19 | | --- | --- | | V-trim [km/h] | 31 | | V-max [km/h] | 39 | | Min Sink [m/s] at optimal wing loading | 1.4 | ### Construction The glider is made from tear resistant Ripstop Nylon cloth, which is P.U. coated to zero porosity and then siliconized to give the fabric high resistance to the elements. Different cloth is used for the top, bottom and ribs due to their different functions. The lines are made of superaramid covered with a polyester sheath for protection against UV, wear and abrasion. The bottom section of the brake lines is made of polyester because of its better mechanical properties. The karabiners that attach the lines to the risers are made of stainless steel. | Size | Material | Diameter [mm] | Strength [kg] | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Top | Super Aramid | 1.8 | 220 | | Lower | Super Aramid | 1.8 | 220 | | Brake Cascades | Dyneema | 1.1 | 95 | | Steering Line | Polyester | 2.2 | 95 | | Sail Cloth | 42 gr/m2 “Zero Porosity” Ripstop Nylon | | --- | --- | | Rib Reinforcement | FLEXON® batten system | | Warranty | 3 years / 250 Hours | ### In the Box - Glider Backpack or light clinch bag - Glider stuff bag - Closing belt - Riser sock - Wind sock - Warranty, stickers and repair kit ### Manual [Prima Manual](https://www.apcoaviation.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/01/Apco_Prima_Scanned_Manual_BnW.pdf) ### Characteristics - ### TAKE OFF Perfect for Ground training and Training flights, the Prima IV has very easy and forgiving inflation and take-off characteristics. - ### LANDING Low glide angle makes it easy to judge your landing approach, while the low approach speed, combined with long brake travel gives a super safe landing, even if the flare timing is misjudged. - ### INSTRUCTOR FEEDBACK The Prima is a tank, indestructible.

Learn to kite, grow your skills. ## TARGET Blown out? Grab a SEED and refine your skills! Ground handling is never a waste of time, even for professionals. You can learn essential skills that directly relate to in the air flying. Deflations, stalls, brake pressure and active piloting can all be practiced while kiting the SEED safely on the ground. ## DESCRIPTION The SEED is our affordable premier training paraglider, made for ground handling only. The SEED was developed from the EN-B EPIC, and acts and feels like a full-size paraglider. It is made from durable 50g cloth and has three risers. It’s a fun accessory for parawaiting at takeoff, practicing kiting, or just goofing around like Spiderman. ## BRUCE’S NOTES I designed the SEED as simple as possible, while keeping the most essential and up-to-date designs features. A strong shark nose, CCB, 3D panel shaping on the lower surface and countless other features make the SEED feel like a normal paraglider. I always say, “good ground handlers make good pilots” so the SEED was produced to teach the most essential skills in a glider small enough to manage even in strong winds. ## MATERIALS ## SPECIFICATIONS ## PACKAGE INCLUDES - Paraglider - BGD stickers - Stuff sack - Riser bag - Compression strap ## DESIGN FEATURES **Cord Cut Billow (CCB)** Cord Cut Billow technology has been developed to improve the form friction, glider stability and overall performance of our paragliders. Two seams run chord-wise across the top panels of the leading edge to accommodate the panel ballooning that happens when the wing is inflated.

This unique design feature means the handles don’t fall off while kiting, packing, or performing manoeuvres. The Snap Lock system solves many of the problems associated with press-studs and magnets. **3D panel shaping** A very clean and accurate lower surface . **Three-riser system** Simple and efficient. ## COLOR OPTIONS Inferno Blaze Forest Tundra ### Specifications | Size | Forest, Tundra, Blaze, Inferno | | --- | --- | --- ## COSMOS {#cosmos} *Price: $3,300.00* Cosmos was designed to be nothing but a fun paraglider. With that in mind, we concentrated on the handling and the fun factor of the glider. Coupled with a shark nose profile and reduced line plan Cosmos sits in the low end of the EN B class but still bursts in performance due to its excellent glide and a very efficient speed system. Flights over 200km were easily achieved during the development phase. We took time to make sure the Cosmos is a well-rounded glider for the seasoned XC pilot as well as the confident pilot fresh out of their paragliding school. Its passive safety makes the ideal glider for pilots who want progress safely and to gain experience as their first Cross-Country glider. It has an outstanding performance for its class and a sweet handling that will entice even those pilots with more experience who often fly in the B category. All pilots will be delighted to explore the fun factor and amazing LD and real-world performance the Cosmos delivers. ** ** | ### TECHNICAL DATA | | --- | | ** ** | XS | S | ###### M | ###### L | | ##### FLAT AREA | 24.2m2 | 25.80m2 | 27.3m2 | 29.3m2 | | ##### PROJECTED AREA | 21m2 | 22.22m2 | 23.44m2 | 25.47m2 | | ##### FLAT WINGSPAN | 11.18m | 11.55m | 11.88m | 12.34m | | ##### PROJECTED SPAN | 9.05m | 9.29m | 9.48m | 10.03 | | ##### ASPECT RATI | 5.17 | 5.17 | 5.17 | 5.17 | | ##### PROJECTED AR | 3.9 | 3.9 | 3.9 | 3.9 | | ##### MAX CHORD | 2.65 | 2.73 | 2.81m | 2.93 | | ##### NUMBER OF CELLS | 50 | 50 | 50 | 50 | | ##### GLIDER WEIGHT | 5.0 | 5.5 | 5.8 | 6.2 | | ##### TAKE OFF WEIGHT | 60-85 | 70-95 | 85-105 | 95-120 | | ##### CERTIFICATION | EN-B | EN-B | EN-B | EN-B | | ### MATERIALS | | --- | | UPPER SURFACE | Dominico 30D MF | | BOTTOM SURFACE | Dominico 30D MF | | PROFILES | Dominico hard 30D | | DIAGONALS | Dominico hard 30D | | TOP LINES | Liros DSL070 | | MIDDLE LINES | Liros PPSL-120 | | MAIN LINES | Edelrid 7343-280/ 6843-160 | | BRAKE LINE | Edelrid 10-200-040 | | PULLEY | Ronstan Ball bearing | | RISERS | Guth & Wolth GMBH 12mm zero stretch polyester webbing | ### COLOURS ### Specifications | Size | XS, S, M, L | | --- | --- | | Colour | Purple, Blue, Red | --- ## Gin Explorer 2 {#gin-explorer-2} *Price: $4,450.00* - - PRODUCT DETAILS A TOUCH OF MAGIC The ingredients are classically simple, even unremarkable: 59 cells, A.R. 6, 3 main lines, well proven profile. Yet the finished dish is unexpectedly exquisite. The Explorer 2 simply allows the pilot to reconnect with the pure joy of flight. No more struggling with the wing. No more niggling doubts. Just the direct experience, like a scene snapping into focus. Performance The Explorer 2 offers concrete improvements over its predecessor whilst retaining the best-loved aspects of the original: – improved climbing ability in all conditions – improved glide performance – exemplary pitch stability for even better take-off characteristics and collapse resistance – smart riser for improved C riser control – increased maximum speed (2cm longer travel) – greater compressibility thanks to nitinol reinforcements – wider “sweet spot” across the weight range To the Top! Perhaps the most notable characteristic of the Explorer 2 is the way the refined yet compact handling translates into a superior climbing experience. The wing bites enthusiastically into thermals, yet settles quickly overhead. Brake pressures are light yet progressive, giving you just enough information to effortlessly maximise your climb. (Still) In A Class Of Its Own Thanks to the slight increase in surface area and other gains in aerodynamic efficiency, the Explorer 2’s glide performance surpasses that of its predecessor. An Unflappable Character The Explorer 2 has an innate pitch stability. Even on windier take-offs, the wing comes up progressively and waits obediently above your head. When conditions get rowdy, it’s more well behaved than ever. ### Technical details - The Explorer 2 features a new smart riser with a control - toggle and a Harken pulley for extra smooth operation. Push half bar, take the riser and enjoy the view! The Explorer 2 also has an extra 2cm of speed bar travel for increased max speed. - Nitinol (Nickel titanium) rods make for a more compact packing, help maintain a clean top surface, even chordwise tension and keep the weight down. # Technical Specifications ## TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS | Size | XXS | XS | S | M | L | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Flat area (m2) | 20.54 | 22.10 | 23.99 | 25.96 | 28.07 | | Flat span (m) | 11.17 | 11.58 | 12.07 | 12.55 | 13.05 | | Flat aspect ratio | 6.07 | 6.07 | 6.07 | 6.07 | 6.07 | | Projected area (m2) | 17.48 | 18.81 | 20.43 | 22.10 | 23.89 | | Projected span (m) | 8.92 | 9.26 | 9.65 | 10.03 | 10.43 | | Projected aspect ratio | 4.56 | 4.56 | 4.56 | 4.56 | 4.56 | | Number of cells | 59 | 59 | 59 | 59 | 59 | | Glider weight (kg) | 3.2* | 3.4* | 3.7* | 3.9* | 4.1* | | Weight range (kg) | 55-75 | 65-85 | 75-95 | 85-105 | 95-115 | | Certification | EN B | EN B | EN B | EN B | EN B | ## MATERIALS **Canopy cloth** *Upper surface leading edge*: Porcher Skytex 34 g/m² *Upper surface*: Porcher Skytex 27 g/m² *Lower surface*: Porcher Skytex 27 g/m² **Lines** *Upper*: Edelrid 8000-U 050, 070, 090, 130 *Middle*: Edelrid 8000-U 070, 090, 130, 190 *Main*: Edelrid 8000-U 230, 280, 360 ### Specifications | Size | XXS, XS, S, M, L | | --- | --- | | Colour | Turquoise, Lemon | --- ## Cure 2 Paraglider from BGD {#cure-2-paraglider-from-bgd} *Price: $5,100.00* ## EN/LTF – C* Soar to new levels of performance: embrace your passion, heal your soul! - 50M iterations fluid/structural analysis - B/C steering system - Double skin leading edge ## COLORS ## INFO For many pilots flying enables them to escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life, and get closer to nature. Flying is a form of meditation that can help heal you, and we have completely reformulated the CURE 2 to increase performance without increasing pilot stress. It has a brand new structure and a profile that’s closer to the Diva. We’ve upped the cell count to 74, and kept the same projected aspect ratio but reduced the arc, which means the flat aspect ratio is lowered to 6.4. The CURE 2 has an impressive top speed of 60km/h, yet full-speed asymmetric collapses are incredibly calm. Designed to be flown fast, the CURE 2 has a new light and efficient B/C steering system too. We’ve kept weight down by using Skytex 27 and 32 cloth, with Skytex 38 on the top-surface leading edge for durability. When you fly the CURE 2 you will soar high to new levels of performance. *M has passed flight and load test and will shortly be fully certified. XS, S, ML, L sizes will soon follow. ## TARGET The CURE 2 is for pilots searching for high performance and low stress. It’s fast on glide with excellent stability in wind and turbulence. Its high cell count and moderate aspect ratio work together to assure excellent performance for its class, and great accessibility. ## BRUCE’S NOTES At BGD we believe in Progressive Stability. Our new simulation program enabled us to tune the span-wise tensions of the CURE 2 in order to achieve the perfect balance between structural rigidity and the wing’s ability to communicate to the pilot about what is happening in the air. This understanding of the air empowers pilots to fly appropriately for the conditions. Of course the CURE 2 has good inherent stability too. We opted to use full chord plastics in the central area of the wing to give it good structural stability, but towards the tips the plastic is in the leading-edge only. This reduces tip cravats, enhancing safety. ### PACKAGE INCLUDES Paraglider / Rucksack / Repair kit / Stuff sack / Riser bag / Compression strap / BGD T-shirt / USB stick with manuals / BGD stickers ### Specifications | Size | XS, S, M, ML, L | | --- | --- | | Color | Alkaline, Enzyme, Halogen | --- ## Magic Paraglider from BGD {#magic-paraglider-from-bgd} *Price: $3,700.00* MAGIC EN/LTF-A IT’S THAT FEELING! A safe, fun and capable wing to learn on … and keep progressing on, long after flying school. # MAGIC EN/LTF-A *IT’S THAT FEELING!* ### A safe, fun and capable wing to learn on … and keep progressing on, long after flying school. ## TARGET If you fly already, you’ll know it – that feeling. The first time your feet leave the ground, the thrill of gliding through the air extinguishing any clammy pre-launch nerves. The pure joy of free flight! The feeling grows, flight after flight, spilling over like Grimm’s Magic Porridge Pot, never running out. The Magic is the perfect partner, from a pilot’s first fly-downs until they are confidently soaring, thermalling and exploring. EN/LTF-A security keeps the pilot safe while BGD handling and solid performance encourage confident progression. The Magic is a wing for pilots to train on, and to keep progressing on long after their school days are behind them. ## DESCRIPTION The Magic takes safety and performance to whole new levels, in a colourful and fun-to-fly package. It’s easy to launch, a joy to thermal and exceptionally roll stable, helping students avoid unintentional side-to-side oscillations. The Magic lightens the workload of learning to fly without reducing the fun: great BGD handling and quick responses ensure it’s always a joy. It has good pitch stability, gently biting forward into lift and reacting very nicely in thermals. Robust and durable materials mean it can cope with the rigours of training, but modern materials manage this without making it heavy – the M size is 4.9kg. ## BRUCE’S NOTES With the Magic I wanted to design the perfect glider for a student to learn on and then to continue to progress with after school, a One Glider concept. The Magic has the safety beginners need, and will continue to look after them as they grow in confidence and become more adventurous. Its spiral behaviour is astounding – spiral stability can be a problem with low aspect-ratio beginner wings, but we have tested the Magic extensively, with different inclinations and sink rates, and never, ever has it stayed in a spiral, once! This is very unusual for a school glider and is a big safety bonus. The brake travel to the stall point is long (72cm) so pilots won’t find themselves accidentally stalling or spinning the wing either. In short I am very excited about the Magic and sure it will bring ‘that feeling’ to whoever flies it. ## FLYING STYLE ## SPECIFICATIONS ## PACKAGE INCLUDES - Paraglider - Rucksack - BGD T-shirt - Speed bar - USB stick with manuals - BGD stickers - Repair kit - Stuff sack - Riser bag - Compression strap ## COLOUR OPTION Gemini Leo Virgo ## DESIGN FEATURES **Cord Cut Billow (CCB)** Shaped panels in the leading edge reduce creasing along the ribs. The creases are more pronounced on larger cells, and CCB technology therefore makes a bigger difference to gliders with bigger cells . **Snap Locks** Snap Locks are lightweight compact attachments that effortlessly connect brakes to the risers with a small focused magnet inside the catch and an internal locking system that holds the handle in every direction except down toward the pilot. This unique design feature means the handles don’t fall off while kiting, packing, or performing manoeuvres. The Snap Lock system solves many of the problems associated with press-studs and magnets. **3D panel shaping** A very clean and accurate lower surface. **Shark nose** The shark nose profile keeps the wing pressurised at all angles of attack and optimises stability at all speeds. **Triple finger diagonals** Three-piece diagonal supports across the chord of the wing ensure structural integrity, keeping the wing solid when brake is applied. They are particularly effective near the trailing edge where the profile is thin and the diagonal ribs are shallower with higher loads to support. **Weight optimised ribs** Thanks to our cutting-edge software, we can calculate the precise load supported at specific points along the sail. We can safely eliminate excess, non load-bearing material, reducing weight without affecting cost or wing-profile strength and rigidity. **Trailing edge mini ribs** Trailing edge mini ribs reduce the trailing-edge billow around the brake fold, of larger-celled wings. This creates a smoother trailing edge, and makes for more responsive brake inputs. ### Specifications | Size | XS, S, M, ML, L | | --- | --- | | Color | Gemini, Leo, Virgo | --- ## Epic Motor Wing from BGD {#epic-motor-wing-from-bgd} *Price: $4,200.00* # EPIC MOTOR ## DGAC EN/LTF-B Your journey begins now with the Epic Motor. Get up and discover what the world has to offer. - Cord Cut Billow (CCB) - Motor Risers - Progressive Stability - Strong Shark Nose ### – IGNITE YOUR QUEST – ## INFO Making our most versatile wing truly multi-purpose. Whether free flying or buzzing around, the EPIC MOTOR will take you through every season in style. It retains the line-set and sail of the Epic, but has a redesigned riser system to make powered flight ultra comfortable and fun. The EPIC MOTOR has a good speed range and efficient trimmer system for fast, safe flights. To free fly, simply pull in the trimmers and take to the air! The EPIC MOTOR is designed for intermediate pilots that also do free flying. ## EPIC MOTOR SPECS ## TECH ### CORD CUT BILLOW (CCB) Cord Cut Billow technology has been developed to improve the form friction, glider stability and overall performance of our paragliders. Two seams run chord-wise across the top panels of the leading edge to accommodate the panel ballooning that happens when the wing is inflated. Up to five centimetres of excess material is created on the sides of an inflated flat panel bending over a wing profile. Cord Cut Billow technology absorbs the material with a 3D panel resulting in fewer ripples and improved rib profile shape and stability. ### STRONG SHARK NOSE An ultra aggressive shark nose optimises stability at all speeds. Not all sharks are created equal and BGD’s shark noses are very aggressive, maximising the effects of the technology. ### PROGRESSIVE STABILITY Progressive stability has been designed into all our gliders to help pilots feel turbulence and avoid it. This makes for safer and more comfortable flying. ### ELLIPTICAL ARC The LUNA 2 has a flattening ration of 11.5% meaning the arc is high and elliptical. This gives great handling, and is also stable under power. ### SNAP LOCKS Snap Locks are lightweight, compact attachments that effortlessly connect the brakes to the risers. A small focused magnet inside the catch and an internal locking system hold the handle in place, releasing only if the handles are pulled down towards the pilot. This unique design feature means the handles don’t fall off while kiting, packing, or performing manoeuvres. The Snap Lock system solves many of the problems associated with press-studs and magnets. ### BABY A-RISER We have added a ‘big ears’ A riser which is also on a ½ ratio with the rest of the A lines. This facilitates easy use of big ears while helping speed and stability while on bar. The speed system is light and simple without reflex really helping glide at speed. ### MOTOR RISERS Trimmers and a re-designed geometry make the PPG risers fully optimised for speed and safety. The trimmer webbing and brake pulleys have been designed to be replaceable if they become worn. ### REPLACEABLE BRAKE PULLIES With a simple around-and-through, you can easily replace those squeaky old brake pulleys or switch them for rings. ### HIGH OR LOW HANG POINT READY These risers are designed to cater to low and high hang point paramotors. There are two attachment points designed into the risers allowing a low hang point paramotor to be connected to the lower attachement point and high hang point paramotors to the upper one. This gives freedom to the pilot without having to change risers. ## EPIC MOTOR TARGET We are not born with wings. Every time we take to the air, our heavy bones and featherless arms are defying nature. But who cares? It is the best feeling ever! The EPIC MOTOR is for pilots taking those first big steps into the skies, and also for seasoned pilots who want something easy to enjoy the air with. Don’t get us wrong, this PPG wing is a hoot, capable of performing SATs and helicos with ease, but it has been optimised for ease of use – easy launch, easy landing, versatility and safety. Break the laws of nature. Turn those feathered heads and take to the skies with the EPIC MOTOR. ## BRUCE’S NOTES With a easy aspect ratio of 5.0 the EPIC MOTOR has a perfect balance between safety and performance. With only 42 optimized cells the EPIC MOTOR is a simple, rugged, and very clean powered paraglider. I gave the EPIC MOTOR an easy pitch profile and arc for a high degree of passive safety, allowing the pilot to concentrate on the fun flying. The new PPG risers provide brilliant speed, safety and features that every motor pilot will appreciate. ### PACKAGE INCLUDES Paraglider / Rucksack / Repair kit / Stuff sack / Riser bag / Compression strap / BGD T-shirt / USB stick with manuals / BGD stickers ## MATERIAL ### Specifications | Size | XS, S, M, ML, L | | --- | --- | | Color | Winter, Spring, Summer | --- ## Gin Boomerang 11 {#gin-boomerang-11} *Price: $4,800.00* - PRODUCT DETAILS Aimed at pilots at the highest levels of international competition, the Boomerang 11 features an increased aspect ratio, a new profile and arc, an increased number of cells and a decreased line drag. This has resulted in improvements all round, most notably in climb rate and glide performance at all speeds. It’s this performance that helped Aaron Durogati to his second World Cup Superfinal victory and saw 4 out of our 7 pilots in the top 10 overall. Besides the performance boost, the Boomerang 11 also has improved searching behaviour and stability. Despite the higher aspect ratio, our internal tests in Mexico’s strongest conditions revealed that the wing was stable and well-behaved in challenging flight conditions. Overall, the wing is a touch easier to fly than the Boomerang 10, although naturally it is still a competition glider intended only for world class pilots. If you are a highly experienced competition pilot and feel this wing is suitable for you, please get in touch via your local GIN dealer. - TECHNICAL DETAILS Technical features – Airfoil with Equalized Pressure Technology (EPT) for stability and performance – Optimized mix of 3, 4 and 5-cell blocks – Optimized internal construction and line attachment points to maintain even sail tension – 109 cells – Unsheathed aramid lines – Mini-ribs on the trailing edge improve handling and performance Materials Canopy cloth: Upper surface: Dominico 30D 41g / Porcher Sport Skytex 32g Lower surface: Porcher Sport Skytex 27g Ribs: Porcher Sport Skytex 40g/32g Lines: Upper: Edelrid 8000 Mid: Edelrid 8000 Lower: Edelrid 8000 ### Specifications | Size | XS, S, M, L | | --- | --- | | Colour | Tiger, Sapphire | --- ## Gin Bonanza 2 {#gin-bonanza-2} *Price: $4,500.00* #### Product Details ## For XC Purists The Bonanza 2 is our new high performance Sports Class wing for XC pilots who appreciate both ease and performance. The Bonanza 2 was born to chase the horizon. The GIN R&D team spent a lot of time perfecting the wing’s flying characteristics on the speed bar, as this is crucial for XC performance. The wing accelerates rapidly, has outstanding performance over the entire speed range and excels in turbulence and headwinds. Besides this, it is easy to fly, climbs great and is of a modern, semi-light construction. • excellent performance over the entire speed range • smooth inflation in all wind conditions • very stable, especially on bar • well-damped pitch control in strong conditions • good climbing ability • great passive safety compared to the level of performance ### Designer notes The original Bonanza remains one of Gin Seok Song’s favorite designs of his 40 year career. Gin believes the Bonanza 2 to be a worthy successor. Gin explains: “We worked more than two years on this glider and I experimented a lot with new techniques, but finally my experience led me to finish this glider as it is now. The aspect ratio and planform was fixed already at an early stage. As with our other recent wings, we spent a lot of time optimising the sail tension, 3D shaping and line materials and diameters. Internal construction is also incredibly important for this class of glider. Most of the three cell blocks are connected with “cross-beams”, which give much better stability and performance. As a result, the glider keeps the arc, even if the speed bar is pushed to the maximum. I recommend using the speed bar as much as possible! The glider is not only very stable over the entire speed range, but the acceleration is rapid and smooth. Performance stays good as well!” ### C-riser steering with Smart Risers The Bonanza 2 also features new Smart Risers for easy pitch control. By acting not just on the C-riser but also on the B-riser, rear riser control is very even and progressive. The flying characteristics on bar – combined with excellent climbing ability and good passive safety – make the Bonanza 2 a dream wing for pilots who want to fly far with ease. ### Technical Details • Optimized airfoil with Equalized Pressure Technology (EPT) for stability and performance • Unsheathed aramid lines with optimized diameters • 3 risers / 3 lines spanwise • Colour-coded stabilo line for easy identification • Optimized internal construction with “cross-beams” to give better stability and performance • Improved sail tension on the leading edge • Mini-ribs on the trailing edge improve handling and performance • Speed system with Harken pulleys • Gathering (reefing) system on the trailing edge • Fabric selected for ideal compromise between durability and light weight: 38g/sqm front top and bottom and 32g/sqm rear top and bottom • Smart riser system for effective rear riser steering #### Materials **Canopy cloth** Upper surface leading edge: Porcher Skytex, 38 g/m2 (water repellent) Upper surface: Porcher Skytex, 32 g/m2 (water repellent) Lower surface: Porcher Skytex, 32 g/m2 (water repellent) **Lines** Upper: Edelrid 8000 / U-050 / 070 / 090 (unsheathed aramid) Middle: Edelrid 8000 / U-050 / 070 (unsheathed aramid) Main: Edelrid 8000 / U-070 / 090 / 130 / 190 / 230 / 280 (unsheathed aramid) # Technical Specifications | ** SIZE** | XXS | XS | **S** | M | L | XL | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | ** FLAT** | ** AREA** | 19.4m2 | 20.7m2 | 22.6m2 | 24.5m2 | 26.5m2 | 28.6m2 | | ** SPAN** | 11.18m | 11.54m | 12.06m | 12.56m | 13.06m | 13.57m | | ** A.R** | 6.44 | 6.44 | 6.44 | 6.44 | 6.44 | 6.44 | | ** PROJECTED** | ** AREA** | 16.63m2 | 17.75m2 | 19.38m2 | 21.01m2 | 22.72m2 | 24.52m2 | | ** SPAN** | 9.04m | 9.34m | 9.76m | 10.16m | 10.57m | 10.98m | | ** A.R** | 4.92 | 4.92 | 4.92 | 4.92 | 4.92 | 4.92 | | ** CHORD** | 2.17m | 2.24m | 2.34m | 2.44m | 2.54m | 2.64m | | ** CELL NUMBER** | 71 | 71 | 71 | 71 | 71 | 71 | | ** GLIDER WEIGHT** | | | 5.15kg | 5.3kg | 5.7kg | | | ** WEIGHT IN FLIGHT** | 60-75kg | 65-85kg | 75-95kg | 85-105kg | 95-115kg | 105-130kg | | ** EN / LTF** | C* | C* | C | C | C | C* | ### Specifications | Size | XXS, XS, S, M, L | | --- | --- | | Colour | White, Blue, Lime | --- ## PHI Beat Light (EN B Light) {#phi-beat-light-en-b-light} *Price: $5,100.00* **PHI Beat Light (EN B Light)** **The Superlight Heart Beat!** It’s performant, it’s precise, it’s extremely reliable and super light! The BEAT light is the perfect wing for a very wide target group. The PHI BEAT Light is the synthesis of several current concepts from our PHI glider range. PHI BEAT Light combines the strength of our best PHI gliders in a very accessible package with superior performance. **PHI Beat Light Designer’s Note** The BEAT light was originally not planned. But from the moment, we presented the BEAT, people were asking for the light version. As we see our main goal and motivation to offer the pilots out there the wings they want, we started to develop the light version of the BEAT. So here it is the BEAT Light: enjoy! *Hannes Papesh* **PHI Beat Light Technical Features** The PHI Beat Light is based on the BEAT: so 56 cells and a flat aspect ratio of 5.3. The BEAT light lines up between TENOR light and MAESTRO X-alps. Technically it is a somewhat slimmed-down MAESTRO X-alps with a few pinches of ALLEGRO (3 main lines), a little FANTASIA (intake) and of course SYMPHONIA (being extremely well balanced). Even used light clothes, the BEAT light is very form stable and precise: “carving the sky”, was one of the feedbacks. Like the BEAT, the BEAT light is mainly using covered lines. This is following the request of pilots who wanted more robust sheathed TECHNORA on brakes and stabilo. **PHI Beat Light Technical Data** **PHI Beat Light Weight Ranges** **PHI Beat Light Colours** **Scope of Delivery** - Glider - PHI Harmonica 43 Concertina Compress Bag - Repair Kit **PHI PROMISE GUARANTEE – 12 months Accidental Damage Protection** *Your glider and our Promise. We do everything to ensure that you are fully enjoying your new PHI paraglider.

The Calypso has been developed from the ground up as a lightweight, easy wing that incorporates all the latest technology from our intermediate and performance wings. Reassuring but fun handling The Calypso has exceptional passive stability and offers coherent and controlled feedback so that you can better understand the air and maximise your enjoyment and also performance. Brake pressures are smooth, precise and progressive, but equally the wing is still forgiving if flown less actively. True lightweight design As the Calypso is a lightweight wing designed from scratch, the internal structure and optimised line layout saves weight without compromising other aspects of the design. As a result, the Calypso offers very balanced flying characteristics, not just light weight. Extended weight range The Calypso is certified with an extended weight range for a greater flexibility of use. Flown around the middle of the normal weight range, low-airtime pilots will discover an easy, well-behaved wing with great climbing ability. Flown at a higher wing loading in the extended weight range, suitably experienced hike ‘n fly pilots can enjoy dynamic flying in stronger conditions and also save on pack weight by taking a smaller glider. - MORE DETAILS - Test pilot Idris Birch explains the development process of the Calypso: “With the Calypso, we decided to design a light wing from scratch, rather than adapting a light wing from a heavier variant. This enabled us more flexibility to tune the handling and stability of the wing to meet the demands of leisure and hike ‘n fly pilots. We worked a lot on getting a good blend of security and fun – the handling is a little more dynamic than a typical first glider, but passive security is still exceptional and the wing will not surprise the pilot. Besides the flying characteristics, we also wanted to make the take off as easy as possible. The canopy comes up promptly with little effort and no overshooting, making it easy to get airborne even in less than ideal spots. As always with light wings, we spent considerable time optimising the internal structure to reduce the weight as far as possible. In addition, we were able to increase the number of upper lines without increasing the total line consumption – this increases stability without compromising on performance. Line materials were also carefully selected to minimise drag and weight yet ensure dimensional stability and a relatively long life. For the main sail fabric, we settled on a mix of 34g, 32g and 27g Porcher fabric to provide durability and rigidity where needed and to minimise the weight in less critical areas.” - Second generation Equalized Pressure Technology (EPT) profile significantly improves stability across the entire speed range - 3 line risers, 2 lines spanwise for simplicity and performance - Easy Big Ears system - Extended weight range (S, M and L sizes) for flying at higher wing loadings - 100% Sheathed lines - Lightweight mini-ribs on the trailing edge – Optional light Dyneema risers - TECHNICAL DETAILS Size XXS XS S M L Flat area (m2) 20.99 22.43 24.42 26.5 28.66 Flat span (m) 10.3 10.64 11.11 11.57 12.03 Flat aspect ratio 5.05 5.05 5.05 5.05 5.05 Projected area (m2) 18.05 19.29 21.00 22.79 24.65 Projected span (m) 8.19 8.46 8.83 9.20 9.57 Projected aspect ratio 3.72 3.72 3.72 3.72 3.72 Chord (m) 2.58 2.66 2.78 2.90 3.01 Number of cells 47 47 47 47 47 Glider weight (kg) 3.2* 3.4* 3.6* 3.9* 4.2* Weight range (kg) 55-75 65-85 75-95 85-105 95-115 Extended weight (kg) – – 100 110 120 Certification EN B EN B EN B EN B EN B Materials **Canopy cloth** *Upper surface leading edge*: Porcher Skytex, 34 g/m² *Upper surface*: Porcher Skytex, 27 g/m² *Lower surface*: Porcher Skytex, 27 g/m² **Lines** *Upper*: Dyneema | Aramid PPSL65 | DSL 70 | PPSL 120 *Middle*: Dyneema PPSL 160 | 200 *Main*: Dyneema | Aramid PPSL 120 | 275 | 350 TGL145 ### Specifications | Size | XXS, XS, S, M, L | | --- | --- | | Colour | White, Blue, Lime | --- ## Gin Camino {#gin-camino} *Price: $4,250.00* - PRODUCT DETAILS A lightweight, “C” XC Paraglider. The Camino- ready for adventure both on the trail and in the sky. It offers an alluring blend of smooth, agile handling and an electrifying real-world performance. Details The Camino will suit pilots who not only like to fly far but who also love adventure, whether that’s hike’n fly, Vol Biv, or simply traveling fast and light. Agility and handling The Camino is agile in the air, smooth to inflate on take-off and naturally damped in pitch and turbulence. Like its counterpart the Bonanza 2, the Camino offers great climbing ability. The lighter fabric increases precision, which makes climbing as efficient and enjoyable as ever. The Camino seems to have a sixth sense to sniff out thermals by gently guiding you towards the lift. Performance and stability at speed The Camino has an internal construction optimised for stability and performance rather than absolute lightness. Most of the three cell blocks are connected with “cross-beams”, which help keep a perfect arc even when the speed bar is pushed to the maximum. This helps the wing accelerate rapidly and smoothly whilst also offering good damping. In addition, the upgraded smart riser system — by removing the bridging between B and C risers — makes rear riser control even easier. Effective speed bar operation and performance is key for long XCs, and the Camino makes short work of long, fast glides. Natural pitch damping As lighter fabric means less inertia, the Camino has excellent natural pitch damping characteristics. The wing smoothly absorbs turbulence, increasing your performance and decreasing your workload. Inflation on takeoff is smooth and progressive even if you pull a little over-enthusiastically. Overall, the Camino is easy to fly compared to the level of performance on offer.

Take off, enjoy, land safely: the BION 2 is a reliable partner which takes its responsibility seriously. With maximum performance, it will never let you or your passenger down. **Excellent take off and landing characteristics.** Like the previous model, the BION 2 has excellent launch characteristics. Just a light pull is necessary to make the canopy rises above the pilot and passenger in a controlled and even manner. In comparison to its predecessor, this tandem is more comfortable to land due to the new wing design and the optimised brake configuration. In the final landing phase the wing converts every brake input and ensures a safe and controlled flare.. **Maximum potential and fun.** The BION 2’s precise handling means that a little brake input results in the desired reaction. Thanks to the significant trim travel and the resulting wide speed range, the wing maintains its precision across the entire weight range of 120 kg to 225 kg. This balance of flight characteristics, coupled with great performance, provides new opportunities for cross-country pilots. **Prepared for every eventuality.** Anyone who flies a tandem carries a great responsibility. Your demand for a high degree of safety will be fulfilled with the BION 2. We made sure the BION 2 is “NOVA standard” by testing it more than the required certification tests and we can guarantee the highest degree of passive safety. These high safety standards should be a dream come true for all responsible tandem pilots. - TECHNICAL DETAILS Size M L Number of cells 49 49 Projected span 10,75 11,43 Projected area 31 35 Projected aspect ratio 3,73 3,73 Flat span 14,11 15,00 Flat area 37 41,75 Flat aspect ratio 5,39 5,39 Line diameter 2,5 / 1,2 / 1 Line length 7,25 7,73 Total line length 334,8 355,7 Max. chord 3,27 3,48 Min. chord 0,73 0,78 Weight 7,5 7,9 Recommended take off weight 90-200 120-225 Certification (EN/LTF) B B - MATERIALS / FEATURES **Materials** Leading edge: Dominico 30D, 41 g/m2 Top surface: Dominico 30D, 41 g/m2 Lower sail: Dominico 20D, 35 g/m2 Profile ribs (suspended): Skytex 40 Hard, 40 g/m2 Profile ribs (unsuspended): Skytex 40 Hard, 40 g/m2 Main lines: A6843-340 Gallery lines: PPSL 160 / TSL 140 Top lines: PPSL120 / DSL70 Brake lines: Cousin 85 Risers: Polyester 25mm / Kevlar 12mm **Features** - Flat profile nose - Optimised call widths - Comfort on the ground - Less is more - More compact - Light and durable ### Specifications | Size | M, L | | --- | --- | | Colour | Petrol, Lime, Mokka | --- ## Gin Leopard {#gin-leopard} *Price: $4,800.00* - DESCRIPTION PURE PERFORMANCE HAS NEVER FELT SO EASY The Leopard’s groundbreaking blend of performance and ease will suit both competitive XC pilots and pilots looking to progress to the highest levels of competition flying. The Leopard shares its DNA with the Explorer (EN B) and with the Bonanza 2 (EN C). This, combined with our experience of over 8 years of continuous development of 2 liner gliders with the World Cup winning Boomerang series, has enabled us to produce a wing with significantly improved characteristics in several key areas: Stability Compared to past 2 liner and high performance wings, the Leopard has greater pitch stability over the entire speed range. In combination with outstanding wing tip stability, the result is a greatly reduced pilot workload in normal flight. Handling and feel One of the most outstanding aspects of the Leopard is the way the wing feels solid and cohesive but not stiff – it immediately feels like a whole wing that better connects you with the elements. The turn is precise and well co-ordinated, the wing accelerates towards thermals and pitch stability is first class. Feedback and “thermal sniffing” behavior The Leopard gives smooth yet highly intelligible feedback. On glide, it’s easy to guide the wing towards thermals and lifty lines by feeling pressure differences through the B risers. The wing flies equally well if you just let it fly, it has a tendency to pull towards lift automatically. Once in a climb, the feedback from the glider also helps you stay centered in the core. - TECHNICAL Size XS S M L Flat area (m2) 20.5 22.32 24.22 26.7 Flat span (m) 12.08 12.65 13.18 13.84 Flat aspect ratio 7.12 7.15 7.17 7.17 Projected area (m2) 17.56 19.14 20.8 22.93 Projected span (m) 9.79 10.25 10.71 11.25 Projected aspect ratio 5.45 5.5 5.51 5.51 Chord (m) 2.2 2.21 2.3 2.41 Number of cells 86 86 86 86 Glider weight (kg) 4.85 5.30 5.65 5.95 Certified weight range (kg) 70-88 85-102 95-112 105-127 Certification EN D EN D EN D EN D - MATERIALSCanopy cloth *Upper surface leading edge*: Porcher Skytex, 38 g/m² *Upper surface*: Porcher Skytex, 32 g/m² *Lower surface*: Porcher Skytex, 27 g/m² **Lines** *Upper*: Edelrid 8000 / U-050 / 070 / 090 (unsheathed aramid) *Middle*: Edelrid 8000 / U-050 / 090 / 130 (unsheathed aramid) *Main*: Edelrid 8000 / U-050 / 070 / 190 / 230 / 360 (unsheathed aramid) - DETAILS - Second generation Equalized Pressure Technology (EPT) profile significantly improves the lift to drag ratio (CL/CD) and stability at higher speeds - 2 line risers with easy B-control - 86 cells for a cleaner top surface and reduced ballooning - Optimized mix of 3 and 4-cell blocks - Cross beams for high stability - Unsheathed aramid lines - Mini-ribs on the trailing edge ### Specifications | Size | XS, S, M, L | | --- | --- | | Colour | Red, White | --- ## Nova MENTOR 6 {#nova-mentor-6} *Price: $4,600.00* #### Product Details **MENTOR 6 – Extend your Range** For many years the MENTOR series has been synonymous with top performance in the EN B class. The MENTOR 6 continues this tradition, complementing the strengths of its predecessors with innovations that enhance its performance even more. Broaden your horizons with the master in its class. **Inner values. **What makes the MENTOR 6 so special is the increased accelerated glide, smooth trailing edge, new risers, durable but lightweight cloth, aerodynamically optimised 3D-shaped seams and an intuitive handling with less brake pressure. We decided not to place any limitations on our ambition and have added many detailed solutions which are completely new to the EN B class. A sports intermediate for cross-country and fun flying, the MENTOR 6 will help you to reach your goals faster – especially when accelerated. The Thermik magazine puts it this way in its test report: “Thanks to its extraordinary feedback in upper speed-range, the wing virtually invites 8- to 10-hour XC-flights, while the pilot pushes the bar uncompromisingly and achieves very high average speed – the ultimate XC-machine! The MENTOR promise. Maintaining the same aspect ratio and a high degree of passive safety, in comparison to the MENTOR 5 we have been able to improve the glide performance and the handling. We were able to achieve both with the use of innovative features such as Zig-Zag 3D-Shaping, the innovative Mini-Rib Vector Tape, Double-B Splits and newly designed risers. The MENTOR 6 handling is very intuitive, it has pleasantly light brake pressure and when circling in a thermal it is both teacher and a wing you can really crank in. The design work on this glider covered the minutest detail but we still recognised the bigger picture: a reworked curvature and a smooth trailing edge when braking give the MENTOR 6 the final polish. Smart details. Often it is the small changes which have a big impact on the satisfaction we have with a paraglider. On the MENTOR 6 we used internal mini-rib seams and improved cloth to ensure the wing is more resilient and durable when it is in contact with the ground. Another added bonus are the Ronstan ball bearing pulleys on the speed-system, which reduce the effort when accelerating. Additionally, the differentiated A3 riser transmission ensures an optimised wing twist in accelerated flight which makes the wing more stable. **In flight** **Zig-Zag 3D-Shaping. **As well as the double 3D-shaped seams, there is an additional diagonal 3D-shaped seam on every cell. This forms a striking zig-zag pattern. This seam doesn’t run in the direction of the spanwise force. This means the seam runs more cleanly and is more aerodynamically advantageous. This feature reduces creases on the leading edge. **Mini-Rib Vector Tape. **Mini-ribs increase the number of cells in the rear wing area and thus provide an aerodynamically more favourable trailing edge. In the MENTOR 6 there is an additional vector tape traversing through a hole in each mini-rib. This tape reduces the crease that is created when braking. In this way both the climb rate and handling are improved. Additionally, there is a brake gathering system on the trailing edge. This means that the MENTOR 6 has a clean, smooth trailing edge even when brake is applied. **Double-B splits.** Similar to the double-A splits in two-liners, the double-B splits allow for a better load distribution in the chord direction. This means more stability and fewer creases between the individual line areas. **New risers. **The MENTOR 6 risers are a redesign of the Speedbrake Riser. They ensure that the B-line area is also shortened when the C-line area is pulled during accelerated flight. The advantage is that the when using C-steering, there is no performance-limiting crease between the B-line and C-line areas, which is otherwise typical in three-liners. The MENTOR 6 is delivered with these new risers, so there is no need to additionally install the Speedbrake Risers. The new riser is practical and fits comfortably in your hand, whether you are ground handling or preparing to launch. **Ergonomic brake handles.** We have developed new brake handles, and the MENTOR 6 is the first wing to be fitted with them. They have an ergonomic shape and are comfortable to use. **Pilot target group** The MENTOR 6 is a paraglider with impressive performance which has – in the hands of an experienced pilot – a very manageable handling and extreme flight behaviour. Flying the MENTOR 6 does require a level of skill. Although certified as EN B, the MENTOR 6 is not suitable for beginners and occasional pilots. But any pilot with the ambition to advance their sound flying knowledge to another level will find a perfect partner in the MENTOR 6. Particularly experienced cross-country pilots who like to fly at top speed for long flights will love the enhanced performance of this glider.

With the DOUBLESKIN walking up is as enjoyable as flying and landing! (*by same flat surface area, with EN-certification, with the Ultralight Riser and without taking single-skin wings into account. As: 06/19) One for all. One for all. The DOUBLESKIN has been designed to allow a flying experience without any compromises. Due to the light construction it combines the advantages of a single-skin wing with the optimal flying characteristics of a glider with an under surface. Ultra-light fabrics and a highly weight optimised yet complex internal structure complete the package. The DOUBLESKIN gives you the opportunity to travel super light and enjoy your hike up the mountain – always in search for the next take off. Tip: Pilots with a take-off weight between 75-90 kg may fly the DOUBLESKIN in size 17 within the extended weight range as a dynamic EN/LTF B wing. Every gram counts. Size 17 (55 – 90 kg Take-off Weight) weighs only 2.1 kg. Together with the [MONTIS](https://www.nova.eu/en/harnesses/montis/) harness (320 gram), the DOUBLESKIN is an ideal base for a weight optimised Hike & Fly kit. The complex internal structure, including mini-ribs, vector-tape and the high number of cells, the wing has also an excellent performance and stability. Instead of our Light Risers you can choose our minimalistic Ultralight Risers at check out and carry another 60 grams less. Into the Wind. The DOUBLESKIN is exceptional at maintaining directional stability as well as a good glide ratio allowing it to deliver when you are in ‘need for speed’. Here at NOVA we regard this as one of the safety features of the wing, since the wind does not necessarily adhere to the forecast on your hike & fly location. The DOUBLESKIN is a pleasure to fly in thermic conditions, thanks to its intuitive handling. Pilots who are looking for a super light yet playful wing, and who wish to travel the world, or simply complete a hike and fly challenge at their local flying site, find in the DOUBLESKIN the perfect companion for their next adventure. Super relaxed. The short lines of the DOUBLESKIN make it much easier to spread the wing and launch, in particular in rough terrain – it simply requires less open space. Thanks to useful holding-pins the glider will stay in place even on very steep or snow-covered take-offs. All the main lines, stabilo lines and brake lines are sheathed and colour coded to increase durability and to facilitate take-off preparations. By the way: When buying a NOVA wing, and after [registering it under myNOVA](https://www.nova.eu/en/my-nova/), it includes our unique one-off protection against accidents and mishaps for one year after purchasing. We exchange lines and replace damaged cells (excess: € 50 + postage and VAT). Is your wing beyond repair we offset the replacement value when buying a new one. You can use NOVA protect within the first year at most once. Please note: In order to benefit from [NOVA-Protect](https://www.nova.eu/en/service/nova-protect/) it is necessary to register your product under myNOVA within 14 days of your purchase. ### Pilot requirements The DOUBLESKIN (EN/LTF A) features a high degree of passive safety (Flat Aspect Ratio: 4.4) but due to its agility, excellent performance and enjoyable thermaling characteristics, it is always ready to turn a top to bottom flight into an XC round trip. Pilots who enjoy the odd wing-over will enjoy the short and precise brake travel in combination with the benign reactions of the DOUBLESKIN. Pilots who enjoy an even more dynamic handling will benefit from the extended weight range of the size 17 wing – with a take-off weight between 75 and 90 kg the wing is certified as EN/LTF B. Despite being mainly EN-A rated – depending on the total take-off weight – we did not design this wing as a school glider. The Ultralight Risers require a certain routine in order to avoid riser twists when clipping in and the ultra-light fabric may be more prone to getting damaged during extensive ground-handling sessions. For those who wish to embark on their pilot training, our [PRION](https://www.nova.eu/en/gliders/prion-4/) or the light weight all-rounder [IBEX](https://www.nova.eu/en/gliders/ibex-4/) are a more appropriate choice. ### Technical data | Size | 17 | 20 | 23 | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Number of cells | 33 | 33 | 33 | | Projected span | 7,6 | 8,1 | 8,8 | | Projected area | 17,1 | 20 | 23,5 | | Projected aspect ratio | 3,3 | 3,3 | 3,3 | | Flat span | 9,4 | 10,1 | 11,1 | | Flat area | 20 | 23 | 27,5 | | Flat aspect ratio | 4,4 | 4,4 | 4,4 | | Line length | 5,05 | 5,5 | 6,05 | | Total line length | 214 | 230 | 253 | | Max. chord | 2,6 | 2,8 | 3 | | Min. chord | 1,1 | 1,2 | 1,3 | | Weight | 2,1 | 2,4 | 2,8 | | Recommended take off weight | 55-75/ 75-90 | 75-105 | 90-120 | | Certification (EN/LTF) | EN-A/EN-B | EN-A | EN-A | *Weight may vary up to 50g due to slight variations of the fabric and due to a variation of the fabrics moisture content. ### “FLAT SURFACE AREA” – what does that mean? In a nutshell the flat surface area is the area of your paraglider when spread out on the ground. In contrast the projected area equals the area of the shadow your wing would cast with the sun standing vertically on the horizon. The projected surface area of the DOUBLESKIN is roughly 85% of the flat surface area by the way. Unfortunately, there is no standardised definition of those areas. E.g. some ballooning effects will be considered differently depending on the design software used by different manufacturers. The definition of the flat surface area is generally better defined, so this is why we use the flat surface area to compare the weight of a wing to other gliders. Generally, a wing with a larger surface area will climb better in thermals. It also allows slower speeds and that can be an advantage in certain take-off and landing situations. ### Short and concise Weight optimised fabric. All fabrics are of the highest standard. We have tested all materials with regards to resistance against aging (porosity, tear strength, UV and abrasive wear) and mechanical resistance e.g. stretch resistance. For quality assurance purposes we also test random samples out of the serial production in regular intervals. The DOUBLESKIN features the lightest fabrics on the market which also shines due to very small pack size and high UV resistance. Mini Ribs. Mini Ribs increase the number of cells at the rear of the wing and produce an aerodynamically optimised trailing edge. The DOUBLESKIN mini ribs are particularly short – again, in order to keep the glider as light as possible. Top-Surface Vector-Tape. The vector tape reduces the kink that is created when brake is applied. The result is an improved climbing performance and better handling characteristics. On the DOUBLESKIN the vector-tape passes just behind the, for weight optimisation extra short, mini ribs. Risers with less weight. The Ultralight Risers sit comfortable in your hands at launch and are, like the rest of the glider, optimised to reduce the overall weight of your kit. Like with all ultra-light risers, we suggest to doublecheck for riser twists when connecting the wing to your harness. Alternatively to the Ultralight Risers, you can choose Light Risers (+60 grams) when purchasing the DOUBLESKIN. Holding-Pins. Small loops on the top surface of the wing serve as mounts for wooden Holding-Pins in order to easily attach the wing onto slippery and steep terrain – e.g. on snow – this will prevent the wing from sliding down after it has been laid out before take-off. The Holding-Pins are self-releasing and will come out of the ground automatically when launching. Please consult the DOUBLESKIN handbook for a detailed description of the correct use of the Holding-Pins. ### Specifications | Size | 17, 20, 23 | | --- | --- | | Colour | Lime, Orange, Petrol | --- ## PHI CONCERTO (EN A TANDEM) {#phi-concerto-en-a-tandem} *Price: $4,900.00* **PHI Concerto EN A – Tandem** **The best-shared performance at maximum safety.** Our team has many years of experience in the construction of tandem paragliders.

The additional mini ribs in the leading edge double the cell number in the critical area of the aerofoil. Together with the optimised double zigzag 3D shaping, the surface finish reaches a new level of perfection. Although the TENOR is a very robust wing (Dominico 30D/20D cloth and internal stitching of trailing edge mini ribs), the innovative internal construction reduces the weight effectively. This wing is very stable at speed and has plenty of safety when it’s getting rough: the TENOR is built to expand your horizons. **Designer’s Note** The TENOR is based on the SYMPHONIA, combining a very safe concept with some additional features to improve performance and speed. The additional ribs in the leading edge are the step forward in form stability. The new airfoil is offering a good climbing performance, even the wing being smaller. The reduced size and higher wing loading is moving the polar towards speed performance. So the TENOR is designed to reach the horizon. *Hannes Papesh* **Technical Data** **Scope of Delivery** - Glider - PHI Harmonica 43 Concertina Compress Bag - Repair Kit **PHI PROMISE GUARANTEE – 12 months Accidental Damage Protection** *Your glider and our Promise. We do everything to ensure that you are fully enjoying your new PHI paraglider.

These complex techniques in combination with a very clean surface finish are widening the performance frame in the A-class by a significant margin. Never before this kind of performance and speed was combined with such a high level of safety and comfort. Never before this kind of performance was safely flyable by such a big target group. Video - Ground Handling the PHI Symphonia 26 **Available Colors** **Designer’s Note** Our PHI SYMPHONIA is opening the door to a new era: high performance wings have reached A class safety. A pilot can develop himself and choose to fly a simple training hill wing, a classical beginner wing or finally a high-performance wing without taking more risks by leaving the A class. The idea to expand the usual one-dimensional relation between gliders classification and complexity, however, is not new. Traditionally, A-wings are technically very simple, as D wings are very complex. Building technically complex wings in the A-class is extruding the scale to a two-dimensional field: the relationship between classification and complexity is not linear anymore. Some years ago, I was able to push the limits by a revolution in the B class with the Mentor 2 and 3. These low aspect ratio wings were found on the top of the XC rankings and impressed many classical high-performance pilots which normally flew more demanding wings. Through progress in technology and knowledge, it is now possible to repeat the same in the A class. The SYMPHONIA is resuming the revolution of safe, low aspect ratio wings! As the B-class got wider and wider in the last years, it was the next logical step to raise a new standard by presenting a high-performance wing in the A-class. Enjoy! Hannes Papesh` **Technical Data** **Weight Ranges** **Secrets** After the first comparison flights, pilots usually ask about the secrets of the SYMPHONIA. Since it has the technical complexity of a modern high-level B-wing, the performance is surprisingly high. Especially against the wind, the SYMPHONIA shows its performance potential impressively by pulling forward, when it picks up the energy of a gust, instead of banking up and getting slower. The airfoil is showing a very high level of stability and form stiffness but is collapsing softly and reacting harmless in case of a deflation. We also love the clean surface finish. The technical and handwork skills of our factory (Aerodynamics in Sri Lanka) made it possible, that the canopy seams of the 3D shaping and the colour design are as clean as never before. In combination with a new, optimized 3D shaping concept, the airfoil smoothness is reaching a new level. Some secrets we will keep to ourselves, but an important factor for this success is time: that time, that the research and development team took to improve the prototypes and to reach the target of an A-rating safety without restraining performance and speed. **Scope of Delivery** - Glider - PHI Harmonica 43 Concertina Compress Bag - Repair Kit **PHI PROMISE GUARANTEE – 12 months Accidental Damage Protection** *Your glider and our Promise. We do everything to ensure that you are fully enjoying your new PHI paraglider.

Extremely efficient and stable, especially at extreme configurations. RPM is Flow’s revolutionary new intermediate|Advanced ppg wing. RPM is a purebred XC paramotor wing with a design focus on 3 key aspects: - Speed - Stability - efficiency Those 3 key design aspects work in harmony side by side. A glider made to cover big kms in the fastest and most efficient way. Offering an extremely comfortable experience and safety assurance due to the stability of our **“full reflex efficient profile”**. RPM is extremely efficient and it can flown 2 to 3m2 smaller than your traditional ppg glider. **RPM offers remarkable pitch stability and efficiency due to our “efficient full reflex” profile and low-drag line plan. The new airfoil represents the forefront in paramotor glider design as it brings benchmark fuel efficiency, stability and speed, only to be found in modern paramotor wings.** We say “efficient” considering the fact that full reflex airfoils traditionally used in ppg wing designs are not efficient airfoils by any means. However, we have managed to combine some of the key elements of our high-end free-flying gliders and technology into our full reflex paramotor profile, making it extremely efficient and stable. The result is in an incredibly efficient airfoil with the same outstanding levels of pitch stability found on full reflex gliders. RPM’s airfoil not only gives increased levels of safety and stability also increased efficiency at extremely high AoA when flying at speed. In real-life tests, the RPM has shown unprecedented efficiency levels (fuel consumption) at low and top-end speeds when compared to traditional non-reflex wings and full-reflex wings. It delivers an easy inflation phase with a constant and even feel through the lines and risers, giving that reassuring tension needed for a perfect launch every time, especially in nil wind days. RPM’s energy retention is so brilliant that landings in nil wind are easy and uneventful, even when flown on the smaller sizes. The combination of 60 cells and an AR of 5.8 gives the RPM a very efficient platform making it the perfect cross country glider. Its compact and playful feel also makes this glider extremely fun to fly and big sweeping turns, wingovers and light acro manoeuvres can easily be performed on the RPM. A glider where the intermediate|advanced ppg pilot will feel at home on the very first flight. **TECHNICAL DATA** | ** ** | ###### 17 | 18 | ###### 20 | ###### 23 | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | ##### FLAT AREA (m2) | 17.00m2 | 18.00m2 | 20.00m2 | 23.00m2 | | ##### PROJECTED AREA | 14.70m2 | 15.562m2 | 17.30m2 | 19.89m2 | | ##### FLAT WINGSPAN | 9.93m | 10.21m | 10.77m | 11.65m | | ##### PROJECTED SPAN | 8.15m | 8.38m | 8.42m | 9.57m | | ##### ASPECT RATIO | 5.85 | 5.85 | 5.85 | 5.85 | | ##### PROJECTED AR | 4.52 | 4.52 | 4.52 | 4.52 | | ##### NUMBER OF CELLS | 60 | 60 | 60 | 60 | | ##### GLIDER WEIGHT | 4.8kgs | 5.1kgs | 5.4kgs | 5.7kgs | | ##### PPG RECOMMENDED WEIGHT RANGE | 65-130 kgs | 75-140 kgs | 85-150 kgs | 95-160 kgs | | ##### PG WEIGHT RANGE | 50-95 kgs | 55-105 kgs | 65-115 kgs | 75-125 kgs | | ##### CERTIFICATION | EN 926-1 / DGAC*pending | EN 926-1 / DGAC*pending | EN 926-1 / DGAC*pending | EN 926-1 / DGAC*pending | **MATERIALS** | UPPER SURFACE | Dominico 30D MF | | --- | --- | | BOTTOM SURFACE | Dominico 30D MF | | PROFILES | Dominico hard 30D | | DIAGONALS | Dominico hard 30D | | TOP LINES | Liros DSL070 | | MIDDLE LINES | Liros PPSL-120 | | MAIN LINES | Edelrid 7343-280/ 6843-160 | | BRAKE LINE | Edelrid 10-200-040 | | PULLEY | Ronstan Ball bearing | | RISERS WEBBING | Guth & Wolth GMBH 12mm zero stretch polyester webbing | ### SHARK NOSE FULL REFLEX EFFICIENT PROFILE **Our “shark nose full reflex efficient profile” is a solid and pitch stable airfoil. Meaning:** - Safer aircraft - More efficiency - Higher stability - Fewer oscillations - More Solidity at all speeds - Higher comfort ### OPTIMIZED INTERNAL STRUCTURE Each cell and diagonals were structurally dimensioned and thoroughly computer analyzed to offer the most suitable chord and span-wise sail tension. The result is a canopy with less attachment points but more taught and rigid offering just enough flex characteristics to give the ideal feedback. A well-tensioned sail is especially important at higher speeds to improve solidity and resistance against collapses. ### ALIGHTED CELL TO AIR FLOW The RPM was designed in a way where every cell are aligned to true airflow creating less disturbance by the inherent billowing effect found on paragliders. The canopy twist and wash out the wingtips further reduce drag and improve the lift coefficients and aerodynamics on the RPM. ### SHORT STRUCTURAL NYLON RODS Strategically placed plastic rods of different stiffness and thickeners to give optimum rigidity to the canopy. RPM’s nylon rods are placed strategically to optimise sail tension minimising sail distortion at speed. They are mostly of short length which facilitates to pack the glider after each flight. When storing the glider away, there is no need for a dedicated folding pillow. Ultimately allowing an uncomplicated folding procedure and ease of use without damaging the glider. ### COLOURS ### Specifications | Size | 17, 18, 20, 23 | | --- | --- | | Colour | Purple, Black, Lime | --- ## FREEDOM {#freedom} *Price: $3,850.00* Freedom is our high EN B. A sophisticated glider where no compromise was made to achieve the perfect balance between performance, passive safety and playful handling. Build with 65 cells. A 3 liner with an optimized line layout and a “solid” internal structure. Our shark nose profile coupled with a reduced line plan to reduce drag, add not only stability and collapse resistance but also pitch stability which reflects into an enjoyable flying experience and ultimately – true performance. The sense of a safe and agile glider is always present on the Freedom. The number of cells and the shark nose profile resembles an EN C glider, but the reduced AR and passive safety makes the Freedom well and truly a high-end B glider. Freedom is built extensively of lightweight materials Our preference was for the long-lasting yet lightweight Porcher Skytex 27g. **The benefits:** - Weight reduction and smaller packing volume. - Most importantly a lightweight construction gives the Freedom an enhanced handling and benign behavior post collapse when compared to a normal weight glider. - Easy Inflation in nil wind. As the name suggests, “Freedom” was designed for the explorer and the traveler a glider to give the sense of freedom to traverse the unknown and venture to new horizons, safely. With vol-biv in mind, we made a glider which offers a great speed range and stability when flown in the most challenging air. The combination of our shark-nose profile and internal construction combined with lightweight materials makes the Freedom to be the ideal piece of kit to any serious adventurer. A moderate AR of 5.6 allows pilots to slow the glider down to top land in those tight spots and also to launch from the most demanding places. The cohesion of the glider enables pilots to push hard against headwind with no worries. **                 ** | ### TECHNICAL DATA | | --- | | ** ** | S | M | ###### L | ###### XL | | ##### FLAT AREA | 23.45m2 | 26.55m2 | 27.9m2 | 30.40m2 | | ##### PROJECTED AREA | 20.15m2 | 22.82m2 | 24.02m2 | 26.15m2 | | ##### FLAT WINGSPAN | 11.47m | 12.23m | 12.54m | 13.10m | | ##### PROJECTED SPAN | 9.25m | 9.85m | 10.7m | 10.58m | | ##### ASPECT RATIO | 5.6 | 5.6 | 5.6 | 5.6 | | ##### PROJECTED AR | 4.21 | 4.21 | 4.21 | 4.21 | | ##### NUMBER OF CELLS | 65 | 65 | 65 | 65 | | ##### GLIDER WEIGHT | 3.9 | 4.1 | 4.4 | 4.6 | | ##### TAKE OFF WEIGHT | 60-85 | 75-100 | 90-115 | 105-130 | | ##### CERTIFICATION | LTF/EN B | LTF/EN B | LTF/EN B | LTF/EN B | | ### MATERIALS | | --- | | ###### CANOPY | ###### FABRIC CODE | ###### SUPPLIER | | Leading Edge | Porcher 70000 32g E3W | Porcher Industries – France | | Top surface | Porcher 70000 27g Classic 2 – E3W | Porcher Industries – France | | Bottom Surface | Porcher 70000 27g Classic 2 – E3W | Porcher Industries – France | | Supported Ribs | Porcher 7000 E91 27g hard | Porcher Industries – France | | Unsupported Ribs | Porcher 7000 E91 27g hard | Porcher Industries – France | | Leading Edge Reinforcement | 2.5/1.8/ Plastic pipe | Porcher Industries – France | | ##### SUSPENTION LINES | ###### FABRIC CODE | ###### SUPPLIER | | --- | --- | --- | | Upper Cascades | Edelrid 8000U 130/090/070/050kg – Edelrid 9200 030kg | EDELRID – Germany | | Middle Cascades | Edelrid 8000U 190/130/090/070/050kg Edelrid 9200 030kg | EDELRID – Germany | | Main Lines | Edelrid 8000U 360/190/130/050kg Liros DSL 140kg | EDELRID – Germany LIROS GmbH – Germany | ### COLOURS ### Specifications | Size | S, M, L, XL | | --- | --- | | Colour | Red, Orange, Blue | --- ## Advance PI BI {#advance-pi-bi} *Price: $4,900.00* - PRODUCT DETAILS PI BI – Family Affair Light, fully-fledged and small when packed: many have been waiting for this tandem wing for Hike and Fly with friends and family.

Every parent knows that deep nervous feeling in their stomach as his or her kids first leave the nest. Tyr, my son, is doing his first flights now. Gunnar, and Freyja are almost old enough. I have to believe I did the best possible job equipping them with them the necessary tools for society and flying. I imagine instructors have the same feelings about their students. I don’t want my kids, instructors, or anyone to worry about how their paraglider will react so I designed the Adam EN-A. It is light enough for little Freyja to carry up the mountain and durable enough for the boys. ## DESCRIPTION The Adam is our EN/LTF-A certified wing, designed for beginners or leisure pilots. Durable Dominico D30 tissue constructs 34 enhanced clean cells into a safe, 4.8kg paraglider. I believe smooth panels and uncorrupted ribs bring stability to my paragliders so I designed the Adam with Cord Cut Billow (CCB). By adding CCB to the leading edge’s top panel the 3D bulge wraps around the rib without deforming it. This is the first glider of this level to which I have added mini-ribs on the trailing edge. Normally large celled paragliders without mini ribs have a lot of billow near the trailing edge and around the brake fold. When this billow is folded down with a brake input everything gets pulled out of shape. Mini ribs reduced the billow around the brake fold creating more responsive brake input and a cleaner brake fold. The Adam comes in a lot of color. We have found that being seen in the air and on the ground is safe for instructors and new pilots. Bright colors help. ## BRUCE’S NOTES I have been designing paragliders since 1990 and this is by far the best EN-A glider I have ever made. Back in those days, the Black Magic DHV-1 was designed from a basic parachute with unsupported cells and square box cell design. It worked but needed improvement. Over the years we have come a long way. CCB and mini-ribs creates fitted 3D cells, unsupported cells are supported with diagonal ribs and span wise bands clean up the bottom surface. All this new technology has greatly improved the safety and performance of beginner wings. For the Adam I believe I have found the best combination of simplicity and technology. It launched really easy, flies responsively, and has the highest safety rating available. I would even let my kids fly it. ## MATERIALS Top surface: Dominico N30 Bottom surface: Dominico N30 Internal structure: Dominico D30 DFM Nose reinforcing: Plastic wire 2,3mm and 2,7 mm Risers: 20 mm black Nylon webbing Pulleys: Sprenger HS Top lines: DSL70 Middle lines: TSL 140 Lower lines: TSL 280 Brakes: DSL70 ## FLYING STYLE ## SPECIFICATIONS ## PACKAGE INCLUDES - Paraglider - Rucksack - BGD T-shirt - Speed bar - USB stick with manuals - BGD stickers - Repair kit - Break handle inserts - Stuff sack - Riser bag - Compression strap ### Specifications | Size | S, M, ML, L | | --- | --- | | Color | Ceylon, Iceland, India | --- ## Advance Bibeta 6 Tandem Glider {#advance-bibeta-6-tandem-glider} *Price: $4,700.00* - PRODUCT DETAILS Note: regarding availability – this item is sometimes in stock in the size and color that you want please contact us at service@superflyinc.com for exact availabilityCustom colors are available by order.

If you make ten flights a day as a professional tandem pilot – where efficiency, economy and passenger safety share priority – flying is often hard work. In the BIBETA 6 we have managed to achieve the difficult objective of packing the best of current tandems into one product – with no compromise: fun all round – all day. ### Developed, tried and tested together with tandem professionals For the first time, commercial tandem pilots were closely involved in the development process of a BIBETA design. Together with several professional pilots from companies operating in the Interlaken tandem Mecca we defined the best individual takeoff, in-flight handling and landing qualities of current tandems as our benchmark criteria. During a long test programme BIBETA 6 prototypes were tried out in everyday use by our extended development team, and the intricate feedback obtained reworked into the design until each desired criterion had been not only achieved, but exceeded. At the end the professionals had only one question: when can we get one? ### From only 6.7 kg, but strong and long-lived The BIBETA 6 is a completely new design and now comes in two sizes, 38 and 41. Line sorting is a breeze. Give the three-liner risers a shake and the lines separate; sorting is quickly done. The canopy rises evenly without overshooting, and passenger and pilot are soon airborne. In flight the BIBETA 6 responds directly and precisely to the smallest brake input. Comfortable brake loading and perfect flare behaviour complete the satisfying experience. Reinforced sliced diagonals, crossing rods in the leading edge, broad-gauge lines and strengthened support points give this working tandem a specially long life. But despite the strong design the wing packs up small and weighs a sensationally low 6.95 kg for the 41. ### High strength Magix Pro Aramid lines The BIBETA 6 mostly has uncovered Magix Pro Aramid lines by Edelrid, the German high quality maker. New technology and complex finishing processes give this High-End product 20 % more strength, 17 % better kink and bending resistance as well as longer life – compared to equivalent covered lines. The Aramid lines are extremely stable in length and easy to sort by their colour coding. Their outstanding resistance to water and dust means that they do not need special handling. Detailed information about the lines can be found on this website or in the Line Guide. - TECHNICAL DETAILS Size Size 38 41 Flat surface m2 38.1 40.8 Recommended takeoff weight kg 100-180 120-225 Glider weight kg 6.7 6.95 Aspect ratio 5.45 5.45 Projected aspect ratio 4 4 Max. chord m 3.25 3.35 Number of cells 53 53 Number of risers 3+1 3+1 Max length of the risers cm 32 32 Certification EN / LTF B EN / LTF B Trimmers yes yes ### Specifications | Size | 38, 41 | | --- | --- | | Colour | Red, White | --- ## Gin Puma – Lightweight D {#gin-puma-lightweight-d} *Price: $4,800.00* #### Product Details ## DREAMS HAVE NO LIMITS The biggest outdoor dreams demand the best tools. The Puma is light enough to take on the trail, and fast enough to bag record-breaking XCs. Pilots who compete in both classic XC and hike ’n fly, or who simply want the maximum performance in a lightweight wing, need look no further than the Puma: - glide performance at the top of the 2 liner EN D category - best in class top speed - light and compact enough for hike ’n fly races: just 3.8Kg for the XS (70-88Kg) and 4.1Kg for the S (85-102kg) - exceptional sink rate in climbs - light, direct, agile handling - easier nil wind take-off ## TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS | Size | XS | S | | --- | --- | --- | | Flat area (m2) | 20.5 | 22.32 | | Flat span (m) | 12.08 | 12.63 | | Flat aspect ratio | 7.12 | 7.15 | | Flat aspect ratio (CIVL) | 6.86 | 6.9 | | Projected area (m2) | 17.56 | 19.14 | | Projected span (m) | 9.79 | 10.25 | | Projected aspect ratio | 5.45 | 5.5 | | Chord (m) | 2.2 | 2.21 | | Number of cells | 86 | 86 | | Glider weight (kg) | 3.83 | 4.13 | | Weight range (kg) | 70-88 | 85-102 | | Certification | EN D | EN D | High performance DNA As a lightweight adaptation of the proven 2 liner Leopard, the Puma is probably the best-performing EN-D light wing ever. All the high performance DNA of the 86 cell Leopard has been retained. Most notably, the glide performance in headwind does not suffer due to the lighter construction. Speed in reserve The Puma excels not only in glide performance but also in ultimate maximum speed. Due to the high wing tip stability in accelerated flight, the wing is able to reach a very high maximum speed. Even at such high speeds, the glide remains flat and stable. Light enough for the toughest hike ’n fly races The design goal of the Puma was to reduce the weight of the Leopard whilst sacrificing nothing whatsoever in performance. Thanks to the careful optimisation of internal structure and materials, the Puma is over 1kg lighter than the Leopard. This puts the wing firmly in the category of wings for hike ’n fly races such as the X-Alps and X-Pyr, yet the performance is still good enough for serious XC racing. The experience of our race athletes has been incorporated into the development of the wing. Climbing and handling The handling is light and direct, giving the pilot a coherent picture of the airmass. The high agility means that the wing responds very well to small pieces of lift. The stall point is readily identifiable, and apart from the obvious safety benefit it’s also useful for tricky landings in challenging terrain. Take-off The Puma will get airborne effortlessly in zero wind conditions and even slight tailwinds are possible with appropriate pilot technique. In stronger winds, pilots only need to pull gently on the centre A1 lines to initiate the inflation, the wing will rise evenly overhead almost on its own. ## DESIGNER NOTES *Test pilot Idris Birch explains the development of the Puma.* Pilots were asking us for a lightweight Leopard that could be used in hike ’n fly competitions like the X-Alps and X-Pyr – thus the Puma was born. Pilots who have flown the Leopard will feel very at home on the Puma. We managed to keep all the performance but the take-off is noticeably lighter. In the air, the handling is lighter and more direct which makes it possible to eke out a saving climb from the tiniest scraps of lift. It also handles great in strong thermals, besides the Alps and Pyrenees, we battle-tested the Puma in Valle de Bravo. The Puma is not absolutely the lightest wing in its category as we decided not to compromise the performance. Instead we optimised the weight by the careful analysis of the internal structure and material choices. If you prefer to win hike and fly races from the air, or use one wing for both XC and hike ’n fly, the Puma could be just the wing for you. *GIN athlete Standa Mayer gives his impressions of the Puma* “As a veteran of 2 X-Alps editions and 3 X-Pyrs, I’ve been closely involved in the development of the Puma. It’s always useful to have better performance and top speed than the other competitors, and the Puma provides this perfectly.” ## DETAILS - Second generation Equalized Pressure Technology (EPT) profile significantly improves the lift to drag ratio (CL/CD) and stability at higher speeds - 2 line risers with easy B-control - 86 cells for a cleaner top surface and reduced ballooning - Optimized mix of 3 and 4-cell blocks - Cross beams for high stability, optimized to reduce weight - Unsheathed aramid lines - Mini-ribs on the trailing edge - Delivered with light Dyneema risers, regular weight risers available as an optional extra ## MATERIALS **Canopy cloth** *Upper surface*: Porcher Skytex, 27 g/m² *Lower surface*: Porcher Skytex, 27 g/m² **Lines** *Upper*: Dyneema / Aramid 9200-030 | 8000/U-050 8000/U-070 | 090 *Middle*: Dyneema / Aramid 9200-030 | 8000/U-050 8000/U-070 | 090 | 130 *Main*: Dyneema / Aramid 8000/U-050 | 130 | 190 | 360 ### Specifications | Colour | White | | --- | --- | | Size | XS, S | --- ## Advance SIGMA 11 {#advance-sigma-11} *Price: $4,900.00* - PRODUCT DETAILS SIGMA 11 – Ambitious Cross Country Once again the SIGMA 11 is up there amongst the highest performing C class wings. The new cross country sportster shows exceptional handling precision in flight and a high level of pitching stability. Its outstanding performance can be called upon any time, even in demanding conditions. Latest technologies like internally sewn miniribs and an effective pitch control arrangement with 2-liner feel finish off this product. Improved SIGMA 11 internal load distribution design makes for simpler packing because C-wires are no longer required. The market launch will take place in time for the next XC season in spring 2021. - WEIGHT RANGES SEAMLESS WEIGHT RANGES The SIGMA 11 size selection was thought of as having Seamless Weight Ranges between 10 and 15 kg steps. Every pilot’s flying weight will find itself within only one ideal takeoff weight range, because these ranges extend seamlessly through the glider sizes, but do not overlap. These SIGMA 11 ideal takeoff weight areas provide the optimal relationship between gliding speed and climb performance for each size in all normal flying conditions, and also take into account the different paraglider size characteristics. - TECHNICAL INFOTechnical Data | Size | Size | 20 | 22 | 24 | 26 | 28 | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Flat surface | m2 | 20.4 | 22.0 | 23.6 | 25.5 | 27.4 | | Projected surface | m2 | 17.4 | 18.8 | 20.1 | 21.7 | 23.3 | | Certified takeoff weight | kg | 60-77 | 70-88 | 80-100 | 92-114 | 105-128 | | Ideal weight range | kg | 65-75 | 75-85 | 85-97 | 97-110 | 110-125 | | Glider weight | kg | n/a | n/a | n/a | n/a | n/a | | Span | m | 11.13 | 11.56 | 11.97 | 12.45 | 12.90 | | Projected span | m | 8.83 | 9.17 | 9.49 | 9.87 | 10.23 | | Aspect ratio | | 6.07 | 6.07 | 6.07 | 6.07 | 6.07 | | Projected aspect ratio | | 4.48 | 4.48 | 4.48 | 4.48 | 4.48 | | Max. chord | m | 2.30 | 2.39 | 2.47 | 2.57 | 2.66 | | Number of cells | | 67 | 67 | 67 | 67 | 67 | | Certification | | n/a | n/a | n/a | n/a | n/a | ### Specifications | Size | 20, 22, 24, 26, 28 | | --- | --- | | Colour | Royal, Spectra, Fire | --- ## Yoti2 {#yoti2} *Price: $2,400.00* **The Yoti2 is more fun!** A refinement from the original Yoti. A new profile combined with new risers and a new plan shape with tweaks on cell tensioning gave the Yoti2 higher stability at lower angles of attack. The awesome handling the original Yoti is known for, remains the same. The Yoti2 is a mini paraglider designed for the most demanding and challenging air, its compact handling and playful characteristics will make you feel comfortable soaring in strong winds above cliffs on the coast or launching in tricky mountaintops after a good hike. Its shark nose profile and tensioning have been carefully engineered to provide the best combination of collapse resistance, pitch stability and comfort in flight. The risers are equipped with both trimmers and speed system. This combo will give you the option to tune the behavior of your glider to suit your style. A reflex profile can be activated by releasing the trim tabs, which will make the glider dive deeper in turns and it will, therefore, increase even further the collapse resistance in extreme conditions. The Speed System is another accessory that can come handy if a situation where the glide on speed is needed. With slightly longer lines Yoti’s handling is very playful yet precise. Wing overs, sweeping turns or even thermalling, you can do it all with this little glider without having the need to “adapt” to the mini wing feel as Yoti2’s handling is exactly the same as a normal paraglider. The fun factor was the key element on the design philosophy of the Yoti2, we hope you have as much fun as we have when flying this beautiful glider. **TECHNICAL DATA** | ** ** | ###### 15 | 17 | ###### 19 | ###### 21 | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | ##### FLAT AREA | 15m2 | 17m2 | 19.05m2 | 21m2 | | ##### PROJECTED AREA | 13.03m2 | 14.68m2 | 16.59m2 | 18.33m2 | | ##### FLAT WINGSPAN | 8.57m | 9.12m | 9.77m | 10.27 | | ##### PROJECTED SPAN | 7.05m | 7.47m | 8m | 8.43m | | ##### ASPECT RATIO | 5 | 5 | 5 | 5 | | ##### PROJECTED AR | 3.81 | 3.83 | 3.86 | 3.88 | | ##### MAX CHORD | 2.12 | 2.2 | 2.37 | 2.49 | | ##### NUMBER OF CELLS | 37 | 37 | 37 | 37 | | ##### GLIDER WEIGHT | 3.55kg | 3.70kg | 4.05kg | 4.3kg | | ##### TAKE OFF WEIGHT | 55-160 | 55-160 | 55-160 | 55-160 | | ##### CERTIFICATION | EN 926-1 Load test | EN 926-1 Load test | EN 926-1 Load test | EN 926-1 Load test | **MATERIALS** | UPPER SURFACE | Dominico 30D MF | | --- | --- | | BOTTOM SURFACE | Dominico 30D MF | | PROFILES | Dominico hard 30D | | DIAGONALS | Dominico hard 30D | | TOP LINES | Liros DSL070 | | MIDDLE LINES | Liros PPSL-120 /DSL70 | | MAIN LINES | Liros PPSL160 | | BRAKE LINE | Liros DFLP 200/32: DSL 70 | **SPEED RANGE** | ** ** | **15** | **17** | **19** | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | ##### 105KG V-TRIM/MAX SPEED (KM/H) | 50/64 | 147/60 | 44/58 | | ##### 85KG V-TRIM/MAX SPEED (KM/H) | 47/61 | 44/58 | 41/54 | | ##### 65KG V-TRIM/MAX SPEED (KM/H) | 44/57 | 41/54 | 39/52 | ### TECHNOLOGY & FEATURES #### LINE REDUCTION Line optimisation reflecting drag reduction and ease of use. All lines are colour coded. #### SHARK NOSE Enhanced stability, improved passive safety, better performance and easier launch characteristics are some of the qualities of our Shark Nose Profile. #### LIGHT AND DURABLE Combining the best selection of materials available, we know the Yoti will offer the best relationship between weight and lifetime. ### RISERS The Yoti2 is built with specially engineered risers where a combination of both **trimmers** and a **speed system** can be used separately or combined. The **Speed System** can be used in a situation where the combination of extra speed and glide angle is needed. For example, Gliding past sinking air while on XC or gliding to a faraway LZ after the wind has picked up. Trimmers are an important tool and can be used to adjust and tune the behaviour of the glider to suit the day or the flying style. Opening the trimmers will create a semi reflex on the profile, resulting in the glider to fly faster but with a worse glide angle. The benefit of the reflex is the stability at speed, the glider will gain better pitch stability and the resistance against collapses will also improve. With the **trimmers open** the Yoti2 will dive even deeper in turns and if you want to follow the contours of the terrains or carve in skies with sweeping turns, this is the right configuration. We recommend all thermic flying to be flown with **trimmers on neutral**, as it is the most optimal setup in terms of speed/glide/sink rate/sweet handling. Due to the combination of both a shark nose and a thick profile, Yoti2’s brake travel is quite long and there will be plenty of warning before she stalls. She is small and usually flown heavily loaded so be careful when flying her and remember she is a mini wing. The configuration of fully open trimmers combined with and full speed bar is possible on the Yoti2. Under this configuration is where you can get the max speed out the Yoti2 but only use in an extreme scenario where you need the extra speed. ### COLOURS ### Specifications | Size | 15, 17, 19 | | --- | --- | | Colour | Jazz, Fire, Ocean | --- ## Wasp Motor Wing from BGD {#wasp-motor-wing-from-bgd} *Price: $3,575.00* # WASP MOTOR ## DGAC EN/LTF-B – ALL-ROUND PROGRESS – Positioned on the safer end of the EN/LTF-B range and DGAC, the Wasp is a rock solid glider that everyone will feel comfortable flying. - Cord Cut Billow (CCB) - Elliptical arc - Elliptical cell openings - High or low hang point ready - Progressive Stability - Snap Locks ## INFO The WASP is a rock-solid wing at the safer end of its certification, and very comfortable to fly. It’s king of ease-of-use, with an outstandingly easy launch behaviour but we haven’t forgotten abut performance or handling: BGD gliders are renowned for their great handling, and the WASP is no exception – it’s responsive and great fun to fly. It’s also very versatile – it has EN/LTF B certification for free-flying, and double-hangpoint PPG risers mean it can be flown with any kind of PPG harness. ## SPECS ## COLORS ## TECH #### ELLIPTICAL CELL OPENINGS We have found that elliptical cell openings give better lower surface tension making for smoother inflation, and re-inflation after collapses. #### CORD CUT BILLOW (CCB) Cord Cut Billow technology has been developed to improve the form friction, glider stability and overall performance of our paragliders. Two seams run chord-wise across the top panels of the leading edge to accommodate the panel ballooning that happens when the wing is inflated. Up to five centimetres of excess material is created on the sides of an inflated flat panel bending over a wing profile. Cord Cut Billow technology absorbs the material with a 3D panel resulting in fewer ripples and improved rib profile shape and stability. #### PROGRESSIVE STABILITY Progressive stability has been designed into all our gliders to help pilots feel turbulence and avoid it. This makes for safer and more comfortable flying. #### ELLIPTICAL ARC The LUNA 2 has a flattening ration of 11.5% meaning the arc is high and elliptical. This gives great handling, and is also stable under power. #### BABY A-RISER We have added a ‘big ears’ A riser which is also on a ½ ratio with the rest of the A lines. This facilitates easy use of big ears while helping speed and stability while on bar. The speed system is light and simple without reflex really helping glide at speed. #### REPLACEABLE BRAKE PULLIES With a simple around-and-through, you can easily replace those squeaky old brake pulleys or switch them for rings. #### HIGH OR LOW HANG POINT READY These risers are designed to cater to low and high hang point paramotors. There are two attachment points designed into the risers allowing a low hang point paramotor to be connected to the lower attachement point and high hang point paramotors to the upper one. This gives freedom to the pilot without having to change risers. #### SNAP LOCKS Snap Locks are lightweight, compact attachments that effortlessly connect the brakes to the risers. A small focused magnet inside the catch and an internal locking system hold the handle in place, releasing only if the handles are pulled down towards the pilot. This unique design feature means the handles don’t fall off while kiting, packing, or performing manoeuvres. The Snap Lock system solves many of the problems associated with press-studs and magnets. ## TARGET The WASP is a reliable, easy and safe PPG wing that’s suitable for new pilots fresh out of school, and perfect to progress on. Easy to launch, comfortable and forgiving, it’s a low-stress wing which will leave brain-space free for enjoying the view, route-planning or navigation. ## BRUCE’S NOTES The WASP benefits from our latest evolution in glider design. It’s characterised by a clean and simple wing structure and a modest aspect ratio. Cord Cut Billow technology has allowed us to obtain a very clean, smooth leading edge, enhancing both performance and stability. Plastic leading-edge reinforcements gives the nose good structure and a clean shape, and and elliptical cell openings mean better tension of the lower surface, making for smoother inflation and re-inflation after collapses. Thanks to its optimised line layout, the WASP has a total line length of just 328m on the M size – that translates to less drag and more performance. ### PACKAGE INCLUDES Paraglider / Rucksack / Repair kit / Stuff sack / Riser bag / Compression strap / BGD T-shirt / USB stick with manuals / BGD stickers ## MATERIAL ### Specifications | Size | S, M, L | | --- | --- | | Color | Peacock, Canary, Parrot | --- ## Yoti2 Lite {#yoti2-lite} *Price: $2,700.00* Carrying all the amazing qualities from the Yoti2, the Yoti2 Lite is designed to pilots who seek the ultimate ease of use on the ground and agility in the air.

All lines are colour coded. #### SHARK NOSE Enhanced stability, improved passive safety, better performance and easier launch characteristics are some of the qualities of our Shark Nose Profile. #### LIGHT AND DURABLE Combining the best selection of materials available, we know the Yoti will offer the best relationship between weight and lifetime. ### RISERS The Yoti2 Light is built with a combination of both **trimmers** and a **speed system**. The **Speed System** can be used in a situation where the combination of extra speed and glide angle is needed. For example, Gliding past sinking air while on XC or gliding to a faraway LZ after the wind has picked up. Or mostly used to tune the glider behaviour to suit the conditions when ridge soaring of flying down the hill The **Trimmers** are an important tool and can be used to adjust and tune the behaviour of the glider to suit the day or the flying style. By default, the Yoti2 Light trim speed is designed with trimmers all the way in. The use of trimmers can only speed up the trim speed. Opening the trimmers will create a semi-reflex on the profile, resulting in the glider to fly faster but with a worse glide angle. The benefit of the semi-reflex is the stability at speed, the glider will become very pitch stable and the resistance against collapses will also improve. With the **trimmers open** the Yoti2 Light will dive even deeper into turns and if you want to follow the contours of the terrains or carve in skies with sweeping turns, this is the right configuration. Flying with **trimmers all the way in**, it will cause the glider to fly at its designed trim speed, therefore, improving the sink rate. A classic scenario: ridge soaring in light winds, pulling the trimmers all the way down will help to stay airborne for longer. We recommend all thermic flying to be flown with **trimmers on neutral (trimmers all the way in)**, as it is the most optimal setup in terms of speed/glide/sink rate. For sweet handling, we would recommend opening the trimmers by 10mm only. Fine-tuning the trimmers is where the Yoti2’s secret is at. Play with yours to find the ideal setting or your conditions and wing loading. Due to the combination of both a shark nose and an optimized collapse resistant profile, Yoti’s brake travel is quite long for this type of glider, therefore, there will be plenty of warning before she stalls yet be careful as she is small and usually flown heavily loaded so be cautious when flying her and remember she is a mini wing and treat her with all the respect she deserves so she can keep delivering smiles. The configuration of full open trimmers and full speed bar is where you can get the max speed out the Yoti2 Light but only use in an extreme scenario where you need the extra speed. ### COLOURS ### Specifications | Size | 15, 17, 19, 21 | | --- | --- | | Colour | Jazz, Fire, Ocean | --- ## Advance ALPHA 7 {#advance-alpha-7} *Price: $3,800.00* #### Product Details # COME FLY WITH ME ## ENTRY LEVEL PARAGLIDER Spread your wings like a bird, step lightly into the air and simply fly away: the ALPHA 7 is your perfect partner for making this a reality.

What is special is to deliver the positive experiences and high feel-good factors of the sport that keep him there for years – long after the license. That’s exactly what our EPSILON series does… ### Feeling good from the pull up Nothing upsets the EPSILON 9: with pitch and directional stability it forges on through turbulent air. Steering demands are answered precisely, without delay. These features combined are responsible for its defining fun and feel-good factor in the air, and as life-long partners of passive safety they share the credit for a long-lasting and uninterrupted enjoyment of flight. ### Latest techniques for good performance Whether we consider the internalized Miniribs, latest Hybrid lining layout or Low Drag Stabilos, the marked EPSILON 9 performance boost results from intensive development work and subsequent technology upgrades. Needless to say the Intermediate also has all the expected state-of-the-art features like Sliced Diagonals, Advanced Airscoop and Double 3D Shaping. ### Straightforward in every respect Starting with wing size choice, then to line sorting, clipping in, big ears to speedbar: the EPSILON 9 is intuitive and simple to manage. The new Automatic Dust Remove even sweeps the wing interior for you while you are flying! - TECHNOLOGY Technology Upgrade The EPSILON 9 enjoys a comprehensive technology upgrade: Internalised Miniribs make a smooth trailing edge and Low Drag Stabilos reduce energy-sapping vortices. State of the Art Technologies The EPSILON 9 contains the latest State of the Art technologies such as the Advanced Air Scoop for good natured stall characteristics, Double 3D-Shaping and Sliced Diagonals. Automatic Dust Remover As a first for ADVANCE paraglider models the EPSILON 9 has a continuous all-cell channel along the trailing edge as an exit route for dust and debris. If necessary it can be left open for use in flight. Hybrid Line Array Simple and easy-to-see sorting plus maximum performance: the EPSILON 9 has an intelligent line mix of covered Liros Dyneema base lines, with robust, uncovered Edelrid Aramid gallery lines. - WEIGHT RANGESEPSILON 9 sizes cover the complete glider Ideal Weight Range in 10 to 15 kg steps (small to large wings). Any flying weight occurs within only one glider size, because this range extends progressively through the glider sizes, with no overlaps. These EPSILON 9 ideal takeoff weight areas include the optimal relationship between gliding speed and climb performance for each size in all normal flying conditions, and also take into account different paraglider size characteristics. - TECHNICAL DETAILS Size Size 22 24 26 28 30 Flat surface m2 22.1 23.9 25.9 27.8 29.8 Projected surface m2 18.5 20 21.7 23.3 25 Ideal weight range kg 65-75 75-85 85-97 97-110 110-125 Certified takeoff weight kg 60-77 70-88 80-100 92-114 105-128 Glider weight kg 4.15 4.4 4.65 4.95 5.25 Span m 10.73 11.15 11.61 12.03 12.45 Projected span m 8.26 8.59 8.94 9.26 9.59 Aspect ratio 5.2 5.2 5.2 5.2 5.2 Projected aspect ratio 3.68 3.68 3.68 3.68 3.68 Max. chord m 2.59 2.69 2.8 2.9 3.0 Number of cells 47 47 47 47 47 Number of risers 3+1 3+1 3+1 3+1 3+1 Certification EN / LTF B EN / LTF B EN / LTF B EN / LTF B EN / LTF B ### Specifications | Size | 22, 24, 26, 28, 30 | | --- | --- | | Colour | Royal, Spectra, Aubergine, Acid | --- ## Hybrid {#hybrid} *Price: $3,800.00* Best of both worlds  – a new standard Certification: EN B (Intermediate) #### A truly revolutionary glider design – The APCO Hybrid. The Hybrid represents the first wing in this class –  a new category of wing in our sport, with unprecedented flying characteristics. This unique design combines a classic double surface profile with a single surface profile, together creating a hybrid profile. Certified in EN-B category, with all but 2 manoeuvres rated EN-A indicating the real life safety of this unique design! Putting aside all the hype – this wing must be flown to be believed! The Hybrid is much more than an exotic wing for special purposes. It offers many advantages over single skin designs and also classic wings in beginner to sport categories. Hybrid wings will become mainstream products within a few years, replacing many classic designs out there. We are proud that APCO is behind such an innovation! This project has been long and difficult but we are sure the term “Hybrid” will be forever coined into our sport! #### Background This project started off as a concept, an idea that we wanted to explore but never expected what we found! The initial test flights of the first prototype were so impressive that we virtually dropped all other projects in an effort to bring this wing to the market. After 2 years of intense R&D we launched the HYBRID! The Hybrid must be flown to believe all the “hype” around it, but we promise you it is that SPECIAL! Any pilot that had the chance to try it was amazed and after only 1 flight, convinced that this concept is here to stay! The Hybrid is light (3 kg), but not designed to be a “Lightweight” wing. the absence of bottom surface on the back part of the wing saves weight but is also what makes it fly in such a special way. ## **Technical Data** | Size | Small | Medium | Large | X-Large | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Product Codes | 38510 | 38520 | 38530 | 38540 | | Cells | 48 | 48 | 48 | 50 | | Area m2 | 20 | 22 | 24 | 25.56 | | Area (projected) m2 | 16.9 | 18.6 | 20.3 | 21.65 | | Span (incl.

Contrary to a Single Skin, you are not tossed around by the currents, the pilot is in control and will enjoy strong thermal conditions! The Hybrid has enough air mass and inertia to penetrate through the air rather then being controlled by the air. - ### ROLL STABILITY Especially dominant with a paramotor – this wing is more roll stable than anything out there. With this wing, there will be NO roll oscillation what so ever!! When free flying, the pilot will notice that it is “hard” to perform wing-overs. This is due to the increased roll stability of this wing. - ### BRAKE PRESSSURE Very very low! On a classic profile, the brakes need to be applied against the internal pressure of the wing. With the Hybrid, as with single skin designs the brakes create only drag and therefore are much more efficient. This wing feels accurate and precise, the brakes are progressive and constantly transmitting the air around you. - ### TAKE OFF Take-off speed is surprisingly slower than most EN A wings.  This helps tremendously in “not perfect” take-off conditions. Back-wind of 5-7 [kmh] is not a problem with the Hybrid (common in Hike&Fly take-off spots). Same goes for front launches with a paramotor, few steps and you are airborne. Inflation is as on superlight single-skin wings, it will come overhead and stay there even in the lightest breeze imaginable! - ### LANDING Compared to single surface wings, which tend to have very poor flair capabilities, the Apco Hybrid has a flair as good as traditional paragliders in class A or B, only better in that the wing has a very long and forgiving brake range, making manoeuvres such as butterfly landings particularly effective for top-landing. - ### FLARE Contrary to single skin wings, the Hybrid flare is superb! Due to its high stall resistance and long brake travel, it flare is close to that of a normal wing! - ### THERMALLING The Apco Hybrid has exceptional thermaling characteristics due to its low sink rate in turns and low airspeed capabilities. It will easily settle in a constant angle of bank turn in a thermal, requiring very little pitch or roll input once centred, resulting in a superior climb rate, which will have you at the top of the gaggle in no time. Flying the Hybrid feels like the wing is “taming down” the conditions. 7 [m/s] thermals, will feel like 4 [m/s] with calm and peaceful behavior. - ### PERFORMANCE The Hybrid offers performance that is substantially higher than that of single skin gliders, and at trim speed, it is as good as a conventional glider. The custom Sharknose profile keeps the wing highly pressurised and collapse resistant throughout the speed range. - ### WING FEEDBACK Feedback from the wing is always gentle with no surprises, even in rough air, but remains simple to understand. It requires surprisingly little active piloting to keep the wing inflated and on the desired heading. - ### HIKE & FLY Coming in at only 3 kg including standard webbing risers, (not flimsy rope risers!) Add to this the ease of take-off at nil wind or even back-wind, and it’s perfect for hike and fly. It has better performance then a single skin with proven Safety – A rating, across the board and B on only 2 manoeuvres. (B rating on  Front stall and 75% side collapse,  flying at full speed bar at maximum weight ) - ### HYBRID Best of both worlds, rolled into one lightweight, compact package. ### Features - ### EHP Embed Hook-In Points - ### FAR Flow Aligned Ribs (FAR – pat. pending) - ### APP Automatic Pressurising Profile - ### L/E FLEXON battens® A system for improved launch, lighter weight, prolonged lifespan - ### 3D Cut Additional 3D cut on the leading edge for clean construction and improved profile definition - ### BBP Air Extreme Ball bearing Pulleys ® - ### LSR Latest laser cutting technology. - ### NBM Integral built-in neodymium brake magnets ### Documentation Apco Hybrid Manual ([Download Pdf](https://www.apcoaviation.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/01/HYBRID-MANUAL_Online-V1.07-2020-01-07.pdf)) ### Specifications | Size | S – 20, M – 22, L – 24, XL – 25.5 | | --- | --- | | Colours | Breeze, Lagoon, Surf | --- ## FUSION {#fusion} *Price: $3,800.00* **Fusing 2-liner feeling with an EN C certification, the Flow Fusion is the first certified hybrid 3-2 liner paraglider.** Feel connected like a 2-line race machine, with rear riser steering on crafted control toggles, but maintain the security and comfortable workload of an EN C glider. An optimised line configuration and unique risers enable a three-line layout in the centre of the span and a two-line layout at the tips. The resulting reduction in drag increases performance noticeably. Careful attention in the design phase has led to exceptional thermic handling bringing the composure of 2-liners to the EN C class. The tension across the span produces a more composed glider and maintains energy in the turn that enables the Fusion to carve through the sky. Surf effortlessly to cloud base and then race away efficiently on bar. A pitch stable aerofoil, less prone to collapses and oscillations, enables the pilot to concentrate on conditions and decision making with a mind freed from micromanaging the glider. The modest aspect ratio and cell count mean a comfortable level of workload as expected for an EN C glider. The shark nose profile, 3D panel shaping and detailed internal structure combine to produce a modern sports class wing. At speed, the Fusion risers allow the pilot to fly the glider by changing the angle of attack whilst not distorting the profile. The two-liner style risers allow the Fusion to cut through the turbulence more efficiently so that the pilot can enjoy more accessible performance throughout the speed range. “I wanted to bring the performance of our highly successful two-line projects, the XCRacer and Spectra, to the EN C class. This Fusion has produced an accessible package that is a dream to fly and one of the most pleasant gliders I’ve ever flown.” Felipe Rezende (Flow Designer). | ### TECHNICAL DATA | | --- | | ** ** | S | M | ###### ML | ###### L | | ##### FLAT AREA | 22.95 m2 | 24.45 m2 | 26.3 m2 | 28.4 m2 | | ##### PROJECTED AREA | 19.56 | 20.89 | 22.47 | 24.14 | | ##### FLAT WINGSPAN | 12.07 | 12.48 | 12.94 | 13.50 | | ##### PROJECTED SPAN | 9.73 | 10.06 | 10.43 | 10.89 | | ##### ASPECT RATIO | 6.35 | 6.35 | 6.35 | 6.35 | | ##### PROJECTED AR | 4.86 | 4.86 | 4.86 | 4.86 | | ##### MAX CHORD | 2.38 | 2.45 | 2.54 | 2.59 | | ##### NUMBER OF CELLS | 68 | 68 | 68 | 68 | | ##### GLIDER WEIGHT | 4.45kg | 4.65kg | 4.80kg | 4.95kg | | ##### TAKE OFF WEIGHT | 72-92 kgs | 80-103 kgs | 92-115 kgs | 107-128 kgs | | ##### CERTIFICATION | LTF/EN C | LTF/EN C | LTF/EN C | LTF/EN C | | ### MATERIALS | | --- | | ###### CANOPY | ###### FABRIC CODE | ###### SUPPLIER | | Leading Edge | Dominico 30D | Dominico | | Top surface | Skytex 32 soft | Porcher | | Bottom Surface | Skytex 32 soft | Porcher | | Supported Ribs | Skytex 32 hard | Porcher | | Unsupported Ribs | Skytex 32 hard | Porcher | | Leading Edge Reinforcement | 2.5/1.8/ Plastic rod | Porcher | | | | ##### SUSPENTION LINES | ###### FABRIC CODE | ###### SUPPLIER | | Upper Cascades | Edelrid 8000U 130/090/070/050kg Edelrid 9200 030kg | EDELRID | | Middle Cascades | Edelrid 8000U 190/130/090/070/050kg Edelrid 9200 030kg | EDELRID | | Main Lines | Edelrid 8000U 360/190/130/050kg Liros DSL 140kg | EDELRID LIROS GmbH | | | | | ###### RISERS | ###### FABRIC CODE | ###### Connectors | | ##### Shackles | Maillon Rapide | ANSUNG PRECISION | | Riser Webbing | 12mm zero stretch polyester webbing | Guth & Wolth GMBH | | Pulleys | Pulleys Ronstan ball bearing | Ronstan | ### ADVANCE INTERNAL STRUCTURE TENSIONING – AIST Spanwise and chordwise precision tensioning ### SHORT STRUCTURAL NYLON RODS Strategically placed plastic rods of different stiffness and thickeners to give optimum rigidity to the canopy. Fusion’s plastic rods are mostly of a short length allowing an easy fold without the use of a dedicated folding pillow. Ultimately allowing an uncomplicated folding procedure. ### HYBRID 3 TO 2-LINE LAYOUT The hybrid 3-2 line layout brings drastic drag reduction in comparison to the traditional 3 lines layout. Ultimately translating to increased gains in performance. - Better glide - More solidity - More efficiency - Higher top-end speed - Increased solidity at higher speeds ### ALIGHTED UNDISTURBED AIR FLOW The Fusion was designed in a way where every cell is aligned to true airflow so there is less disturbance by the inherent billowing effect found on paragliders. The canopy twist and washout on the wingtips further reduce drag and improve the lift coefficients and aerodynamics on the Fusion. ### PITCH STABLE SHARK NOSE AIRFOIL Our solid shark nose profile is a pitch stable airfoil which means: - Fewer oscillations - More efficient glides - Solidity at higher speeds - Higher Comfort ### OPTIMIZED INTERNAL STRUCTURE Each cell and diagonals were structurally dimensioned and thoroughly computer analyzed to offer the most suitable chord and span-wise sail tension. The result is a canopy with less attachment points but more taught and rigid offering just enough flex characteristics to give the ideal feedback. A well-tensioned sail is especially important at higher speeds to improve solidity and resistance against collapses. ### COLOURS ### Specifications | Size | S, M, ML, L | | --- | --- | | Colour | Ocean, Red, Fire | --- ## SPECTRA {#spectra} *Price: $6,500.00* Spectra is our CIVL Competition Class glider, widely known as CCC. Spectra’s design bridges the gap between sophistication and simplicity where innovative and thoughtful design concepts were adopted to minimize complexity which usually leads to extra weight and drag. We concentrated on key areas and perfected those elements for improved performance without compromising safety. The result is a glider which deforms less in turbulence, converts lift more efficiently, offers less distortion when AoA is changed and has less parasitic drag. With 176 leading cells and a reduced total line count, the Spectra is the vanguard in glide performance and technology. Spectra has numerous hidden features which can only be observed by the trained eye. Special attention was given to key elements on the design, such as: leading edge structural integrity general internal spanwise and chordwise rigidity and tension the relative alignment of the airflow in relation to the wingtips, reducing drag. These hidden technologies combined offer true performance gains and usability. Spanwise and chordwise tension and rigidity were reinforced to optimize handling and glider solidity. Spectra is a cohesive glider both in climb and glide and pilots who are accustomed to flying high-performance paragliders will feel comfortable and at ease to fly the Spectra and push the glider to the maximum. **TECHNICAL DATA** | ** ** | **S** | **M** | ###### ML | ###### SL | ###### L | ###### XL | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | ##### FLAT AREA | 20.35m2 | 22.20m2 | 23.80m2 | 24.60m2 | 25.88m2 | 27.50m2 | | ##### PROJECTED AREA | 17.34m2 | 18.88m2 | 20.24m2 | 21.02m2 | 21.98m2 | 23.39m2 | | ##### FLAT WINGSPAN | 12.37m | 13.05m | 13.49m | 13.80m | 14.18m | 14.52m | | ##### PROJECTED SPAN | 10.08m | 10.47m | 10.84m | 11.22m | 11.45m | 11.65m | | ##### ASPECT RATIO | 7.65 | 7.65 | 7.65 | 7.65 | 7.65 | 7.65 | | ##### PROJECTED AR | 5.8 | 5.8 | 5.8 | 5.8 | 5.8 | 5.8 | | ##### MAX CHORD | 2.06 | 2.16 | 2.24 | 2.26 | 2.32 | 2.40 | | ##### NUMBER OF CELLS | 88 | 88 | 88 | 88 | 88 | 88 | | ##### GLIDER WEIGHT | 204.84m | 204.84m | 227.14m | 230.2m | 238.10m | 249.86m | | ##### TAKE OFF WEIGHT | 5.9 | 6.0 | 6.2 | 6.25 | 6.35 | 6.4 | | ##### CERTIFICATION | 80-95 | 95-105 | 100-115 | 105-120 | 110-125 | 115-135 | | | CCC | CCC | CCC | CCC | CCC | CCC | **MATERIALS** | ###### CANOPY | ###### FABRIC CODE | **SUPPLIER** | | --- | --- | --- | | Upper Surface | Dominico DOKDO 30D MF/ Porcher SKYTEX 27 CLASSIC 2 | Dominico terch Corp.

Back in 2014, when Vista III was first introduced, it was a groundbreaking wing. An EN B certified true 3 liner (top to bottom), shark nose wing that performs and feels like a well tuned racing car which excels in strong conditions ! It has set a standard for many other competitor models which came after.. The new Vista V is based on the platform of Vista IV and improved on several key points: Over 700 grams lighter in the M size, but uncompromising materials / durability. This result in better inflation and in-flight characteristics. Re-Optimised 3D leading edge cut smartly incorporated into the colour design – resulting in a cleaner leading edge, improved top surface layout and tension for better performance. Risers- Perfect 12 [mm] webbing risers with incredible attention to details. They are super-lightweight at less than 99 gr! Incorporating a unique A5, C5 (Split A, C) line connection method with no Karabiners! Making it cleaner, safer, lighter – smart and elegant. The risers also feature specifically designed ball bearing pulleys allowing for the smoothest speed system operation possible, and now the same brake pulleys are mounted on a custom elasticated tubular webbing. The Vista V now also sports the [Butthole 2](https://www.apcoaviation.com/butt-hole-2/), which automatically clears sand and debris from the wingtip trailing edges. Vista V flight characteristics can be described as a very solid canopy which reassures the pilot with its consistency and pitch damping characteristics. The wing transmits an incredible reassuring feeling of safety to the pilot, building confidence, for better piloting. Vista V will be the perfect companion for any pilot from a talented school student to cross country pilot looking for a good performing, safe and easy to manage wing. The Vista V is also available with motor risers. The lightweight canopy makes a huge difference for nil wind forward launches. Its pitch stability turns it into a very pleasant paramotor wing as it cuts through the air almost unaffected by small turbulence. Coupled with its performance, it is a highly efficient paramotor wing perfect for electric engines or low power motors. The paramotor risers are equipped with trimmers. The flight characteristics remains within the certification while the trimmers are in the closed position. The full test procedures have however been completed in house on these risers with the trimmers in the open position.

If you could bottle that feeling and share it around … that’s what the DUAL 2 is for – sharing the joy of flight! A clean take-off is absolutely critical to a safe and successful tandem flight. The DUAL 2 takes the load quickly and the short run required is a huge step forward for passenger safety. We’ve made the Dual 2 in two sizes: the 42m² will suit most, and the 37m² is for all-up weights below 200kg. ## DESCRIPTION The DUAL 2 is an entirely new design. It took us years of development and many prototypes to perfect, but we believe it is a significant leap forward from the original Dual, which itself was a benchmark EN-B tandem. It’s a pleasure to launch and to fly, with light, intuitive BGD handling and an outstanding sink rate, making it a ‘top of the stack’ performer. Big ears are effective and easy to use, and we’ve added a new big-ears locking system. We know commercial pilots need tandems that last well so we’ve made the DUAL 2 robust and strong, with durable cloth throughout and all-sheathed Kevlar lines. The trimmers have easy-grab plastic balls and easy to replace webbing. ## BRUCE’S NOTES With this project I wanted to make a tandem that is ridiculously easy to launch as not all passengers are willing runners, but I didn’t want to sacrifice that light and sensitive handling that was so highly praised in the original DUAL. To achieve this we designed a whole new single plastic shark nose just for this wing. In the air the handling is a delight and thermalling is outstanding. The whole team are very happy with the outcome. It’s a pleasure to fly, and a dream to launch: two steps and away! ## SPECIFICATIONS ## PACKAGE INCLUDES - Paraglider - Rucksack - Replacement trimmers - BGD T-shirt - Repair kit - USB stick with manuals - BGD stickers - Stuff sack - Riser bag - Compression strap ## FLYING STYLE ## MATERIALS ## COLOR OPTIONS Iris Orchid Poppy ## DESIGN FEATURES **Eyes Wide-Open Safety** Gliders that talk are safer. Safer gliders make pilots perform better. Better performing pilots fly further. Further flying pilots are happier pilots. Eyes Wide-open Safety produces happier pilots. **Progressive Stability** Designed to warn pilots of light-to-moderate turbulence, rather than suddenly collapsing when things get really unruly. Bruce’s article in Cross Country magazine, ‘Shifting Our Thinking on Safety’, explains how, “A wing that is super stable and almost never collapses can lead to more accidents, because when it does collapse the pilot is not prepared and has little experience of how to deal with the situation”. Any wing will collapse given enough turbulence. A small deflation in medium turbulence is easier to deal with, and therefore safer, than a big collapse in strong turbulence. **Cord Cut Billow (CCB)** Shaped panels in the leading edge reduce creasing along the ribs. The creases are more pronounced on larger cells, and CCB technology therefore makes a bigger difference to gliders with bigger cells . **Webbed Profiles** Using our cutting edge software we have maintained the strength and rigidity of the profiles while maximizing the amount of non-load bearing material we could remove. This reduces weight and without increasing the cost or reducing the strength of the wing as a whole. Hole positioning and size is highly dependent on the loads taken locally by the sail and this can only be done correctly with recent innovations in our software. **Post C Band** We have added a ‘Post C’ band running along the top surface which seamlessly moves down to the bottom surface at the tip connecting directly to the last line cascade. Instead of putting heavy plastic rods above the C lines we use this band to counter the common flip up ripple caused when adding a little brake. The problem with paragliders is when a little brake is applied the cupping of the trailing edge creates lift which often buckles the profile near the C’s. We have solved this problem with the “Post C Band” an eloquent, lightweight, clean, and volume-reducing solution. **Baby-A Riser** We have added a ‘big ears’ A riser which is also on a ½ ratio with the rest of the A lines. This facilitates easy use of “big ears” while helping speed and stability while on bar. The speed system is light and simple without reflex really helping glide at speed. **Triple Finger Diagonals** Across the whole chord of the profile we have designed three-piece diagonal supports that pass through the holes in other ribs. They ensure structural integrity by avoiding cloth bias from the ribs and creating a more solid wing even when brake is applied. This is particularly important near the trailing edge since the profile is thin and the diagonal ribs are shallow supporting higher loads. **Maximized Unsupported Cells** Optimized unsupported cell groups are designed to match the span wise load distribution influenced by the line layout. Coupled with a strong internal structure the line layouts that create more span wise tension can support more unsupported cells. While maintaining a homogenous wing this helps to minimize line consumption reducing drag thus improving performance. **Snap Locks** Snap Locks are lightweight compact attachments that effortlessly connect brakes to the risers with a small focused magnet inside the catch and an internal locking system that holds the handle in every direction except down toward the pilot. This unique design feature means the handles don’t fall off while kiting, packing, or performing manoeuvres. The Snap Lock system solves many of the problems associated with press-studs and magnets. **Optimized Line Layout** Over the years we have perfected our system of optimizing the line layout of our wings. We use numerous equations, software, and the plain old guess and check method to build our line layout. The result is simple: fewer lines making stronger, faster gliders. **Single Plastic Shark Nose** Results in a very easy launch with minimal running required, without increasing the brake pressure. **Big Ears Blocker** A cam cleat system that allows the pilot to pull big ears on, in the size required, and then lock them in place. A neoprene cover prevents lines from unintentionally catching in the system, and the ears are easy to release. **Trimmers** Trimmers have 10cm travel and a plastic puller ball on the end to make them easier to operate. Trimmer webbing wears, but is easily replaceable by untying a knot inside the puller ball. A spare set of webbings are delivered with the glider. ### Specifications | Size | 37, 42 | | --- | --- | | Color | Iris, Orchid, Poppy | --- ## PHI SOLA (EN A – LIGHT) {#phi-sola-en-a-light} *Price: $3,850.00* ## PHI SOLA IS THE BEST FIRST PARAGLIDER AND AN ABSOLUTE MUST IN THE HIGH MOUNTAINS!

It offers the perfect blend of comfort and safety, married with performance and speed. It’s the ideal choice for intermediate pilots to seasoned competitors and BGD Team pilot Benedikt Bös won the British Paramotor Open Championship in both 2019 and 2020 on a LUNA 2. The LUNA 2 is an evolution of the original LUNA, itself a benchmark. It now has a pronounced sharknose, a re-optimised reflex profile, a new elliptical arc, new extra-terrestrial colour schemes, and BGD’s trademark CCB panel shaping and exceptional handling. The new risers are equipped with dedicated tip-steering TST handles, high and low hangpoints, trimmers and a speed system. With these new features, this wing is ready to meet whatever challenges you dream of! ## TARGET Three, two, one, booster ignition and we have lift-off for the LUNA 2, our out of this world PPG wing with the ultimate mission, to widen the possibilities of airborne exploration for PPG pilots. This high-tech versatile craft will safely carry pilots to discover new horizons and then softly bring them back to Earth. ## BRUCE’S NOTES With the LUNA 2 we have focused on an easy inflation, fun manoeuvrability, stability, and top speed – all the things you need for paramotoring adventures. Cord Cut Billow (CCB) along the wings’s leading edge helps keep the reflex profile smooth and perfect, and the reflex makes for excellent stability at all speeds. ## SPECS ## SPECS ### ARCHED DIAGONALS Carefully arched diagonals in the internal structure of the LUNA 2 distribute tension more evenly across the wing, reducing wrinkles and increasing performance. ### SEMI-REFLEX SECTION We have incorporated a semi-reflex section into the LUNA 2 profile to help improve stability at higher speeds. ### ELLIPTICAL ARC The LUNA 2 has a flattening ration of 11.5% meaning the arc is high and elliptical. This gives great handling, and is also stable under power. ### STRONG SHARK NOSE An ultra aggressive shark nose optimises stability at all speeds. Not all sharks are created equal and BGD’s shark noses are very aggressive, maximising the effects of the technology. ### PROGRESSIVE STABILITY Progressive stability has been designed into all our gliders to help pilots feel turbulence and avoid it. This makes for safer and more comfortable flying. ### TIP STEERING HANDLES We have added dedicated magnetically fastened tip steering handles into the LUNA 2 to make high-speed manoeuvres easy and safe. ### 135MM SPEED BAR TRAVEL We have found 135mm to be the perfect amount of speed bar for this wing, allowing us to achieve maximum speed range while keeping well within the stability limits. ### 8.5 CM TRIMMERS This wing is fitted with trimmers, with a range of 8.5cm. ### REPLACEABLE BRAKE PULLIES With a simple around-and-through, you can easily replace those squeaky old brake pulleys or switch them for rings. ### PACKAGE INCLUDES Paraglider / Rucksack / Repair kit / Stuff sack / Riser bag / Compression strap / BGD T-shirt / USB stick with manuals / BGD stickers ## MATERIAL ### Specifications | Size | 18, 20, 23, 26 | | --- | --- | | Color | Venus, Neptune, Mars | --- ## Nova Aonic {#nova-aonic} *Price: $3,900.00* - DESCRIPTION Note: regarding availability – this item is sometimes in stock in the size and color that you want please contact us at service@superflyinc.com for exact availability Custom colors are available by special order.

AONIC- Take your skills to “A” higher level The high-end EN A paraglider AONIC impresses with sportiness and performance, which is not usually found with EN A gliders – and is nevertheless suitable for instruction due to its high level of safety. A fresh breeze for the EN A class. The AONIC paves the way to the upper end of the EN A class. From the first day in the air. It is therefore ideal for ambitious paragliding students – and all pilots who want to consciously hone their skills within the EN A class. Is the change to an EN B wing inevitable at some point? Not necessarily. With an aspect ratio of 5.17, 49 cells and a minimalist line set design, the AONIC offers performance and handling like an EN B class wing, but with a plus in safety. This also makes it attractive for pilots who want to change to an EN A wing. Good reasons to do this are plentiful. Foremost is the desire for relaxed flying – always, everywhere and without missing anything. Going places together. During the testing phase, special attention was paid to making the AONIC easily accessible and versatile. The AONIC offers intuitive handling, high passive safety and a pleasant pinch of agility and speed – a mixture with a lot of potential for adventure – thanks to its elaborate technical design and an optimisation of the material down to the last detail. Anyone who learns to fly with the AONIC will continue to enjoy their glider for a long time after their training is completed. Be it SIV/pilotage, XC flights, travel or simply soaring the local mountain. Keeping all options open. With the AONIC it is easy to gain a lot of flight experience within the EN A class. Which is always an advantage – not only if you decide to move up to the EN B class later or if you get to the point where you want to specialise in a particular branch in paragliding. Hike & fly, cross-country, competition, acro – if at any time one of these branches of the sport becomes YOUR passion, then the AONIC is certainly a great first wing to ensure solid preparation. If the broad spectrum of paragliding is still your goal, you never need to part ways with the AONIC. Head free for the essentials. Of course, feeling comfortable with your wing starts before you take off – e. g. with easy to sort lines, thanks to sheathed main lines and only very few gallery lines. The AONIC’s combination of Dyneema A and B-lines, and the C main lines and gallery lines being made from Kevlar, means small diameter and high trim stability. The risers were designed especially for this wing and the lines used during maneuvers like big ears and a B-line stall are marked. We also use the colour scheme recommended by the PMA for both the risers and the lines: A = red, B = yellow, C = blue, brake = orange, stabilo line = green. The coloured markings for right and left also make it easier to check whether you have correctly attached yourself to the harness. And talking of harnesses… our versatile [VENTUS](https://www.nova.eu/en/harnesses/ventus/) is the ideal harness for the AONIC. - MATERIALS Leading edge: Dominico 30D, 41 g/m2 Top surface: Dominico 20DPS, 33 g/m2 Lower surface: Dominico 20DPS, 33 g/m2 Profile ribs (suspended): Porcher Skytex 40 Hard, 40g/m2 Profile ribs (unsuspended): Porcher Skytex 40 Hard, 40g/m2 Main lines: Liros PPSL 191 / TSL 140 Gallery lines: Edelrid U-8000 series Brake lines: Cousin 85 / PPSLS65 Risers: Kevlar 12mm - TECHNICAL DETAILS Technical data | Size | XXS | XS | S | M | L | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Number of cells | 49 | | Projected span | 8,09 | 8,5 | 8,89 | 9,28 | 9,68 | | Projected area | 18,87 | 20,84 | 22,76 | 24,82 | 27,02 | | Projected aspect ratio | 3,47 | | Flat span | 10,75 | 11,29 | 11,8 | 12,32 | 12,86 | | Flat area | 22,32 | 24,64 | 26,92 | 29,35 | 31,95 | | Flat aspect ratio | 5,17 | | Line length | 6,28 | 6,6 | 6,9 | 7,21 | 7,52 | | Max. chord | 2,58 | 2,71 | 2,85 | 2,97 | 3,1 | | Weight | 4,05 | 4,4 | 4,75 | 5,05 | 5,4 | | Recommended take off weight | 55-80 | 70-90 | 80-100 | 90-110 | 100-130 | | Certification (EN/LTF) | A | A | A | A | A | - TARGET PILOT The AONIC (EN/LTF A) offers maximum speed, manoeuvrability and glide performance within the A class – without neglecting the high safety requirements of a paraglider suitable for instruction. The AONIC is perfect for students who quickly develop a good feeling for ground handling and for their initial flights on practice slopes. Once in the air, the fact that it is a high-end EN A becomes immediately obvious: control inputs are converted quickly and with momentum. The speed-system also lives up to its name, without drastically increasing the sink rate – which is often dreaded with EN A wings. We recommend pilots in training to fly the AONIC in the middle of the weight range. For experienced pilots, the upper range of the certified take-off weight is also suitable. - DETAILS REVIEW New design. The central design element is the sweep, which visually emphasises the aspect ratio of the wing, complemented by a differently coloured banderole on the outer wing. The product and brand name can be seen on the banderoles. What is special about the banderole is that its placement and composition across several cells varies slightly from model to model. 3D-Shaping. In 3D-shaping, a seam on the upper surface extends over the entire span and reduces the amount of folds caused by the curvature over two axes. Two axes, because the sail cloth has to align to the profile form and the ballooning also determines a radius which the cloth also has to follow. What is ballooning? The internal pressure of the glider is higher than the external pressure at almost all points of the upper and lower surface. This determines how the cell inflates. The resulting “bulge” of the cell is called “ballooning”. ### Specifications | Size | XXS, XS, S, M, L | | --- | --- | | Colour | Red, Blue, Green, Gold | --- ## PHI VIOLA (EN A+ LIGHT) {#phi-viola-en-a-light} *Price: $4,100.00* **PHI Viola the Universal Paragliding Wing** The VIOLA is an extremely versatile lightweight paraglider: 8 sizes covering a weight range from 50 to 145kg, from the certified miniwing up to an easy hike and fly wing for heavy pilots. The VIOLA 18 can be used as a family glider with a legal weight range from 50 up to 110kg. By using modern technology and new materials the weight per square meter was reduced even more. The risers are made from stable and robust TECHNORA. Choose softlinks or light metal maillon rapides. With the softlinks, the small sizes of the VIOLA (incl. 20) have no pure metal parts at all! (The bigger sizes have a brake reef system with small metal rings.) **Riser Option** PHI Viola is delivered with RZ4 risers by default please let us know if you need help deciding what riser will work best for you or if you know that you prefer the RZ3 Superlight risers. [https://phi-air.com/project/risers/ ](https://phi-air.com/project/risers/) **The New King of Mini Wings** *I’ve flown, tested and sold most mini wings in the search for the best, and once a new best is found, that’s all I fly until it’s superseded. Call me biased if you like, but please try it yourself – it will surprise you! I look forward to your feedback. *[Review By Alan Hills](https://flybubble.com/blog/the-new-king-of-miniwings) (SkyWings Paragliding, NZ) *Clean profile with 40 cells, 4.72 flat AR, if you are after efficient lightweight miniwing that does flat turns and speedy spirals VIOLA miniwing will look after you.* **Designer’s Note** *The weight reduction of the VIOLA over the SONATA is offering even better recovering after deflations and even less dynamic reactions in extreme manoeuvres. So it was possible to raise the max take-off weight by 15kg. This has to be seen as an extended weight range, for pilots who want to fly a high loaded, small, light and very agile wing, offering extreme fun. The very small VIOLAs are targetting to experienced alpine pilots looking for a very light, fast and good performing wing, that does not overreact and is behaving very trustworthy in every situation. Over the full range of VIOLAs, the demand is rising with the wing loading. A VIOLA 18 is a very easy and safe school wing loaded with 50kg, but as well a high-level sports equipment for experienced pilots at 110kg.* *Hannes Papesh* **Secrets** The secret to developing extraordinary wings is the passion to fly.

With a solid blend of performance and no-stress safety the pilot who loves every kind of paragliding will find one wing does it all with this little lightweight package. Stripped-down, open-minded, and dressed to impress, the ECHO will please every pilot it floats over! ## DESCRIPTION A resonance of the EPIC with a stripped-down line-set and an lighter mix of materials, the ECHO shaves 500-700g while offering extra performance and versatility for no compromise in safety. As with the rest of the BGD range, the ECHO profits from Bruce’s trademark sharp, easy handling, 3D CCB panel-shaping means a clean, high-performing aerofoil while its lower weight means less inertia, reduced shooting and increased roll stability. Our strong shark nose adds stability to the leading edge at all speeds, and a silky-smooth Ronstan ball-bearing speed system keeps bar-action smooth on those long flights. The ECHO offers clear feedback with a relaxed feel in active air, and epic performance for its class! ## BRUCE’S NOTES Knowledge is power. To fly a wing well, I think it is important for a pilot to feel in control. Having an understanding of the air you are flying in is as important as the glider’s own passive safety. I design all my wings to give a reassuring level of feedback, to empower pilots with a good understanding of the conditions. I call it progressive stability, and my wings incrementally react to the different levels of turbulence, providing essential feedback, so the pilot can stay well within their comfort zone. Shielding a pilot from turbulence might make them feel safer initially, but they can be blissfully unaware of the risks they might be taking when the air is becoming more turbulent. Fly safely, fly confidently, fly with progressive safety and know the air around you. Read more about Progressive Stability in Cross Country’s article “Icaristics – Shifting our Thinking on Safety” in issue 176 [by clicking on this link](http://www.flybgd.com/read.php?type=download&file=_file_CROSS-COUNTRY-176-ICARISTICS.pdf&lang=en). ## PACKAGE INCLUDES - Paraglider - Rucksack - BGD T-shirt - Speed bar - USB stick with manuals - BGD stickers - Repair kit - Stuff sack - Riser bag - Compression strap ## DESIGN FEATURES **Cord Cut Billow (CCB)** Cord Cut Billow technology has been developed to improve the form friction, glider stability and overall performance of our paragliders. Two seams run chord-wise across the top panels of the leading edge to accommodate the panel ballooning that happens when the wing is inflated. Up to five centimetres of excess material is created on the sides of an inflated flat panel bending over a wing profile. Cord Cut Billow technology absorbs the material with a 3D panel resulting in fewer ripples and improved rib profile shape and stability. **Progressive Stability** The ECHO is designed to warn experienced pilots of light-to-moderate turbulence, rather than suddenly completely collapsing when things get really unruly. Bruce’s article in Cross Country magazine, ‘Shifting Our Thinking on Safety’, explains how “A wing that is super stable and almost never collapses can lead to more accidents, because when it does collapse the pilot is not prepared and has little experience of how to deal with the situation”. Any wing will collapse given enough turbulence. A small deflation in medium turbulence is easier to deal with and therefore safer than a big collapse in strong turbulence. **Snap Locks** Snap Locks are lightweight compact attachments that effortlessly connect brakes to the risers with a small focused magnet inside the catch and an internal locking system that holds the handle in every direction except down toward the pilot. This unique design feature means the handles don’t fall off while kiting, packing, or performing manoeuvres. The Snap Lock system solves many of the problems associated with press-studs and magnets. **Strong Shark nose** An ultra aggressive shark nose optimises stability at all speeds. Not all sharks are created equal and BGD’s shark noses are very aggressive, maximizing the effects of the technology. **Trailing edge mini-ribs** More positive braking. **Shattered colour scheme** Just so refreshing. **Lower Surface 3D Panel Shaping** A very clean and accurate lower surface. **Three-riser system** Simple and efficient. **Dedicated big ears riser** Easy descent when you need it. **Triple-finger C diagonal ribs** Complicated stuff that goes on inside the wing. **Optimized Line Layout** Over the years we have perfected our system of optimizing the line layout of our wings. We use numerous equations, software, and the plain old guess and check method to build our line layout. The result is simple: fewer lines making stronger, faster gliders. **Light and durable** The ECHO is constructed with a mix of lightweight but robust, proven, materials. ## COLOUR OPTION Crystal Emerald Sapphire ### Specifications | Size | XS, S, M, ML, L | | --- | --- | | Color | Crystal, Emerald, Sapphire | --- ## MENTOR 6 Light {#mentor-6-light} *Price: $4,900.00* ### MENTOR 6 Light – Less weight, zero limits At home in the B class and travelling the world – the MENTOR 6 Light in size S is a hefty 850 grams lighter than its big brother, but offers the same ingenious new developments like Zig-Zag 3D-Shaping, the innovative Mini-Rib Vector Tape, Double-B Splits and new risers. Since sometimes during Hike&Fly you might get choppy conditions, the MENTOR 6 Light also comes with a plus trim in comfort next to the high performance.   The MENTOR 6 Light mainly differentiates itself from the MENTOR 6 in terms of weight. We chose weight-optimised Skytex 27 cloth on the upper and lower surface. Nice to know: We offer the same guarantee for this cloth as we do for our regular sail cloths. Why? It is very important to us that you can enjoy your NOVA wing for a long time. Despite its lightweight design, we use the most robust materials possible and on the wing nose we have additionally used double-sided coated 30D cloth. No compromises in comfort. Apart from the gallery lines, all lines are sheathed and nearly sort themselves. Instead of “Spaghetti-straps” we use new aerodynamically slim risers, whose design was based on the Speedbrake Riser. These ensure optimal C-steering and even at the launch lie comfortably in the hand. This means the MENTOR 6 Light is easy to inflate and the weight-optimised canopy climbs even more easily than the normal version. A typical Mentor. Which means that you can expect exactly what the name MENTOR traditionally promises from our new glider: best performance in the EN B class. An experienced pilot will soon realise that the MENTOR 6 Light gives useful feedback about what is happening with the wing in flight and at the same time leaves enough room for manoeuvre to actively fly the glider’s great potential. Our new ergonomic brake handles make this even more comfortable. Simply honest. The MENTOR 6 Light’s performance is easily accessible and is therefore suitable for local soaring as well as being perfect for ambitious FAI triangles, hike & fly and vol biv. In strong thermals it convinces with its relaxed and comfortable flying characteristics and, for its class, a very high level of passive safety (flat aspect ratio: 5.43). Especially for pilots who like to climb mountains on foot, the combined low weight and small packing size makes the MENTOR 6 Light an all-rounder: light on the back and as enthusiastic about going XC as you are. ### Short and compact **Zig-Zag 3D-Shaping. **As well as the double 3D-shaped seams, there is an additional diagonal 3D-shaped seam on every cell. This forms a striking zig-zag pattern. The advantage of Zig-Zag 3D-Shaping is that this seam doesn’t run in the direction of the spanwise force.  This means the seam runs more cleanly and is more aerodynamically advantageous.  This innovation reduces the creases in the leading edge. **Weight-optimised cloth.** We not only test the sail cloth for durability (high porosity or reduced tear resistance through UV damage or wear) but also for mechanical robustness, for example stretching. For quality control purposes we regularly take samples during serial production. **Mini-Rib Vector Tape. **Mini-ribs increase the number of cells in the rear wing area and thus provide an aerodynamically more favourable trailing edge. The MENTOR 6 Light has an additional vector tape in this area. This tape reduces the crease that is created when braking. This markedly increases climb performance and handling. Additionally, there is a brake gathering system on the trailing edge. These features mean the MENTOR 6 Light has a beautiful, smooth trailing edge, even when the brakes are applied. **New risers. **The risers on the MENTOR 6 Light are a further development of the Speedbrake Riser and this means the B-line area is also shortened when the C-line area is pulled during accelerated flight. The advantage is that the when using C-steering, there is no performance-limiting crease between the B-line and C-line areas, which is otherwise typical in three-liners.  The new MENTOR 6 Light comes with the new riser as standard, so no retrofitting of the Speedbrake Riser is necessary. The new risers are practical and lie comfortably in the hand – during groundhandling and when getting ready to launch. [Learn more about the new risers at News & Stories.](https://www.nova.eu/en/news-stories/article/news/optimised-mentor-6-riser/) **Ergonomic brake handles.** We developed the new brake handles for the MENTOR 6, so of course they also feature on the MENTOR 6 Light. The new brake handles have an ergonomic design and are comfortable to handle. **Double-B splits.** These double-B splits are similar to the double-A splits in two-liners and these allow for a better load distribution in the chord direction. This ensures more stability and fewer creases between the individual line areas. | ### Technical data | | Dimension | XXS | XS | S | M | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Number of cells | | 59 | | Projected span | m | 8,5 | 8,9 | 9,4 | 9,8 | | Projected area | m² | 18,2 | 20,2 | 22,2 | 24,2 | | Projected aspect ratio | | 3,9 | | Flat span | m | 10,8 | 11,4 | 11,9 | 12,4 | | Flat area | m² | 21,5 | 23,8 | 26,2 | 28,5 | | Flat aspect ratio | | 5,43 | | Line diameter | mm | 0,7 / 0,8 / 1,0 / 1,2 / 1,3 | | Line length | m | 6,4 | 6,7 | 7,1 | 7,4 | | Total line length | m | 235 | 248 | 260 | 271 | | Max. chord | m | 2,46 | 2,59 | 2,71 | 2,83 | | Min. chord | m | 0,44 | 0,47 | 0,49 | 0,51 | | Weight | kg | 3,55 | 3,9 | 4,2 | 4,5 | | Recommended take off weight | kg | 60-80 | 70-90 | 80-100 | 90-110 | | Certification (EN/LTF) | | B | B | B | B | | | --- | ### Specifications | Size | XXXS, XXS, XS, S, M | | --- | --- | --- ## Cosmos Power {#cosmos-power} *Price: $3,400.00* Cosmos Power is a dedicated intermediate paramotor wing. It shares the same line layout, AR and materials as our free-flying EN B Cosmos. **Cosmos and Cosmos Power are 2 different wings**. Cosmos Power is a completely new design. A highly efficient and extremely stable, intermediated paramotor wing. With state-of-the-art “Efficient full reflex”, shark nose aerofoil, tip steering, trimmers and speed bar. Cosmos Power is a very efficient and fun glider to fly. Designed as a fully dedicated ppg glider that can also be used, for both free-flight and paramotoring. **Cosmos Power offers remarkable pitch stability and efficiency due to our “efficient full reflex” profile and low-drag line plan. The new airfoil represents the forefront in paramotor glider design as it brings benchmark fuel efficiency, stability and speed, only to be found in modern paramotor wings.** We say “efficient” because of the full reflex traditionally used in ppg wing designs, is not an efficient airfoil by any means. However, we have managed to combine some of the key elements of our high-end free-flying gliders and technology into our full reflex paramotor profile, making it extremely efficient and stable. The result is in an incredibly efficient airfoil with the same outstanding levels of pitch stability found on full reflex gliders. Cosmos Power’s airfoil not only gives increased levels of safety and stability also increased efficiency at extremely high AoA when flying at speed. In real-life tests, our paramotor wings have shown unprecedented efficiency levels (fuel consumption) at low and top-end speeds when compared to traditional non-reflex wings and full-reflex wings. **In a nutshell**, Cosmos Power is a nimble glider that is easy to inflate and launch in both nil wind and high wind days. Cruising at trim or at speed the pilot will notice increased stability in all configurations. Equipped with trimmers, speed bar and tip steering, it is easy to explore the full potential of this glider. Cosmos Power is also very roll-stable and no oscillations are present. Landings are easy and facilitated due to the glider’s ability to convert its energy retention into a predictable and reassuring flare. **TECHNICAL DATA** | ** ** | ###### 19 | 22 | ###### 24 | ###### 26 | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | ##### FLAT AREA (m2) | 19.00 | 22.00 | 24.00 | 24.00 | | ##### PROJECTED AREA (m2) | 16.46 | 19.06 | 20.79 | 22.52 | | ##### FLAT WINGSPAN (meters) | 9.98 | 10.74 | 11.22 | 11.68 | | ##### PROJECTED SPAN (meters) | 8.23 | 8.85 | 9.25 | 9.62 | | ##### ASPECT RATIO | 5.25 | 5.25 | 5.25 | 5.25 | | ##### PROJECTED AR | 4.1 | 4.1 | 4.1 | 4.1 | | ##### NUMBER OF CELLS | 50 | 50 | 50 | 50 | | ##### GLIDER WEIGHT(kg) | 4.1kg | 4.3.kg | 4.6kg | 5.0kg | | ##### TAKE OFF WEIGHT ##### Intermediate (kg) | 75-105 | 85-115 | 95-125 | 100-135 | | ##### Extended TAKE OFF WEIGHT Advanced (kg) | 75-130 | 85-140 | 95-150 | 100-160 | | ##### CERTIFICATION | EN 926-1/ DGAC*pending | EN 926-1/ DGAC*pending | EN 926-1/ DGAC*pending | EN 926-1/ DGAC*pending | **MATERIALS** | UPPER SURFACE | Dominico 30D MF | | --- | --- | | BOTTOM SURFACE | Dominico 30D MF | | PROFILES | Dominico hard 30D | | DIAGONALS | Dominico hard 30D | | TOP LINES | Liros DSL070 | | MIDDLE LINES | Liros PPSL-120 | | MAIN LINES | Edelrid 7343-280/ 6843-160 | | BRAKE LINE | Edelrid 10-200-040 | | PULLEY | Ronstan Ball bearing | | RISERS WEBBING | Guth & Wolth GMBH 12mm zero stretch polyester webbing | ### SHARK NOSE FULL REFLEX EFFICIENT PROFILE **Our “shark nose full reflex efficient profile” is a solid and pitch stable airfoil. Meaning:** - Safer aircraft - More efficiency - Higher stability - Fewer oscillations - More Solidity at all speeds - Higher comfort ### OPTIMIZED INTERNAL STRUCTURE Each cell and diagonals were structurally dimensioned and thoroughly computer analyzed to offer the most suitable chord and span-wise sail tension. The result is a canopy with less attachment points but more taught and rigid offering just enough flex characteristics to give the ideal feedback. A well-tensioned sail is especially important at higher speeds to improve solidity and resistance against collapses. ### ALIGHTED CELL TO AIR FLOW Cosmos Power was designed in a way where every cell are aligned to true airflow creating less disturbance by the inherent billowing effect found on paragliders. The canopy twist and wash out the wingtips further reduce drag and improve the lift coefficients and aerodynamics on the Cosmos Power. ### SHORT STRUCTURAL NYLON RODS Strategically placed plastic rods of different stiffness and thickeners to give optimum rigidity to the canopy. Cosmos Power’s nylon rods are placed strategically to optimise sail tension. They are mostly of short length which facilitates to pack the glider after each flight. When storing the glider away, there is no need for a dedicated folding pillow. Ultimately allowing an uncomplicated folding procedure. ### COLOURS ### Specifications | Size | 19, 22, 24, 26 | | --- | --- | | Colour | Purple, Red, Lime | --- ## Ozone Acro Brake Handles {#ozone-acro-brake-handles} *Price: $70.00* Specialized brake handles designed for acrobatic paragliding.

We’ve managed to improve the speed range and the overall performance slightly, making our EN C glider even better. The fun factor and real performance of this glider is truly amazing. Like it’s original brother, Fusion Light is a game changer! We have introduced a pulley on the floating B riser, which gives a true 2-liner feel as well as lighter rear riser control, integrating the hybrid 3-2 line layout in harmony and efficiency. We believe the Fusion Light will be the perfect glider for many adventures, hike & fly missions or just the perfect companion for your next flight. We are happy that the Fusion Light is certified, as it is the favourite glider of our team pilots, and it can now be appreciated and enjoyed by intermediate pilots who like the practicality of a 3 liner glider and the efficiency of a purebred 2 liner racer. ### HYBRID 3 TO 2-LINE LAYOUT **Fusion Light rear riser steering is a game changer in performance gains for an EN C class.** Allowing the pilot to fly at speed through active thermic air. Direct feedback and millisecond reaction time to catch collapses and steer the glider while keeping the same top speed whilst improving glide ratio. The concept is the same as 2-liners, and the biggest advantage besides direct feel through the toggles is its ability to keep “nose up” and pitch stability maintaining the solidity throughout the whole glide. Either on a thermic ridge run or under a cloud street, the Fusion Light allows the pilot to fly at full bar with confidence and solidity. Rather than distorting the airfoil the direct rear riser steering causes a real change in AoA allowing the pilot to keep flying at full speed retaining its energy which therefore converts bubbles into lift. ### TECHNICAL DATA | ** ** | S | M | ###### L | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | ##### FLAT AREA | 22.95 m2 | 24.45 m2 | 26.3 m2 | | ##### PROJECTED AREA | 19.56 | 20.89m2 | 22.47m2 | | ##### FLAT WINGSPAN | 12.07 | 12.48m | 12.94m | | ##### PROJECTED SPAN | 9.73 | 10.06m | 10.43m | | ##### ASPECT RATIO | 6.35 | 6.35 | 6.35 | | ##### PROJECTED AR | 4.86 | 4.86 | 4.86 | | ##### MAX CHORD | 2.38 | 2.45 | 2.54 | | ##### NUMBER OF CELLS | 68 | 68 | 68 | | ##### GLIDER WEIGHT | 3.6kgs | 3.8kgs | 3.95kgs | | ##### TAKE OFF WEIGHT | 72-92 kgs | 80-103 kgs | 92-115 kgs | | ##### CERTIFICATION | LTF/EN C | LTF/EN C | LTF/EN C | | ### MATERIALS | | --- | | ###### CANOPY | ###### FABRIC CODE | ###### SUPPLIER | | Upper Surface Front | Skytex 32 | Porcher | | Upper Surface Back | Skytex 27 Classic 2 | Porcher | | Bottom Surface | Skytex 27 Classic 2 | Porcher | | Supported Ribs | Skytex 27 hard | Porcher | | Unsupported Ribs | Skytex 27 hard | Porcher | | Profile Reinforcement | 2.5/1.8/ Nylon rods | Porcher | | | | ##### SUSPENTION LINES | ###### FABRIC CODE | ###### SUPPLIER | | Upper Cascades | Edelrid 8000U 130/090/070/050kg Edelrid 9200 030kg | EDELRID | | Middle Cascades | Edelrid 8000U 190/130/090/070/050kg Edelrid 9200 030kg | EDELRID | | Main Lines | Edelrid 8000U 360/190/130/050kg Liros DSL 140kg | EDELRID LIROS GmbH | | | | ###### RISERS | ###### FABRIC CODE | ###### Connectors | | ##### Shackles | Dyneema Rope | Liros | | Riser Webbing | 8mm zero stretch Dyneema webbing | Liros | | Pulleys | Pulleys Ronstan ball bearing | Ronstan | ### ADVANCE INTERNAL STRUCTURE TENSIONING – AIST Spanwise and chordwise precision tensioning ### SHORT STRUCTURAL NYLON RODS Strategically placed plastic rods of different stiffness and thickeners to give optimum rigidity to the canopy. Fusion’s plastic rods are mostly of a short length allowing an easy fold without the use of a dedicated folding pillow. Ultimately allowing an uncomplicated folding procedure. ### HYBRID 3 TO 2-LINE LAYOUT The hybrid 3-2 line layout brings drastic drag reduction in comparison to the traditional 3 lines layout. Ultimately translating to increased gains in performance. - Better glide - More solidity - More efficiency - Higher top-end speed - Increased solidity at higher speeds ### ALIGHTED UNDISTURBED AIR FLOW The Fusion was designed in a way where every cell is aligned to true airflow so there is less disturbance by the inherent billowing effect found on paragliders. The canopy twist and washout on the wingtips further reduce drag and improve the lift coefficients and aerodynamics on the Fusion. ### PITCH STABLE SHARK NOSE AIRFOIL Our solid shark nose profile is a pitch stable airfoil which means: - Fewer oscillations - More efficient glides - Solidity at higher speeds - Higher Comfort ### OPTIMIZED INTERNAL STRUCTURE Each cell and diagonals were structurally dimensioned and thoroughly computer analyzed to offer the most suitable chord and span-wise sail tension. The result is a canopy with less attachment points but more taught and rigid offering just enough flex characteristics to give the ideal feedback. A well-tensioned sail is especially important at higher speeds to improve solidity and resistance against collapses. ### COLOURS ### Specifications | Size | S, M, L | | --- | --- | | Colour | Ocean, Sunrise | --- ## Gin Yeti Tandem 3 {#gin-yeti-tandem-3} *Price: $4,400.00* - PRODUCT DETAILS LIGHT TANDEM – AND MUCH MORE The Yeti tandem is an ultralight tandem glider, suitable not just for hike ‘n fly adventures, but also for all kinds of flights, especially with family and friends. - smooth inflation in all wind conditions - excellent performance over the entire speed range - super stable even with trim open (EN A rated) - well-damped pitch control in strong conditions - good climbing ability - great passive safety compared to the level of performance - MORE DETAILSOne Size: 37 *Gin Seok Song shares the design story of the Yeti Tandem:* Gin explains: “Besides hike ‘n fly and commercial tandems, a lot of general pilots simply like to fly tandem for fun, often with family and friends. We wanted to make a very easy wing for these pilots that would be fun to fly and convenient to transport. Our aim was to make the flying experience as close as possible to that of flying a solo wing. The improved 2nd generation EPT (Equalised Pressure Technology) profile makes take-off easier than ever before. Inflation is effortless and the wing stops above your head without shooting. Getting airbourne is super fast, no need to run a lot. Forward or reverse launches are equally stress-free, just give a gentle pull and off you go.

Email us for more info! ION 6 – Adventure Awaits The fundamentally redesigned ION 6 (EN/LTF B) is the next generation of the popular ION series. The result: high passive safety, particularly precise handling and maximum performance to achieve personal XC goals. Room for ambition. No matter where and how far you fly, with the ION 6 nothing stands in the way of a personal best flight. But on this journey the fun does not fall by the wayside, because simple launch behaviour, pleasant handling and an effective speed system are included as standard. Or put differently, with the ION 6, both pilots new to the EN B class and (XC) professionals are well-equipped for every adventure – be it at the local site, when chasing kilometres or on paragliding trips. Form follows function. The line length and thus the distance between the pilot and the canopy is significantly reduced on the ION 6. This results in more direct handling in the air as well as advantages during take off. For example, it requires less room to lay out the canopy and the wing inflates quickly and reliably. Additionally, the curvature of the wing has been reduced, meaning the canopy is “flatter”. This increases the roll damping and ensures stable flight. Due to the short lines, and despite the high roll damping, the ION 6 reacts precisely to brake inputs – and the pilot can feel what is happening above them without delay. Another consequence of the reduced curvature is the increased projected aspect ratio (3.84) compared to the ION 5 (3.52). However, the flat aspect ratio has increased by only 0.6%. Relaxed from A to B. Successful cross-country flying requires complete concentration. The ION 6 makes this easy to do with its high level of passive safety, leaving you time to enjoy the view on the way. In flight, it quickly becomes clear that it can be turned particularly flat – i.e. you can’t “overcook it” when you want to fly a tight turn. This means you lose less height and can use even weak thermals effectively. But banking it higher, if you want a little more dynamics, is easily possible and this requires little brake travel and moderate brake pressure. In addition, the ION 6 has mini-ribs with internal seams, which increase the performance of the glider and ensure a smooth trailing edge. The other features built into the wing are a Mini-Rib Vector Tape and 3D Shaping at the leading edge. Simply keep track of things. The ION 6 has specially designed adjustable risers. This system is also used, for example, on the [MENTOR 6](https://www.nova.eu/en/gliders/mentor-6/) (EN/LTF B) and the [SECTOR](https://www.nova.eu/en/gliders/sector/) (EN/LTF C). What does this mean? The A3 line is shortened less during acceleration than the A1 and A2 lines. This increased the stability of the wing during accelerated flight. Apart from that, the risers are standard and are very user-friendly on launch and during ground handling. The coloured markings for right and left, which also continue on the brake handles and the carabiners of our [harnesses](https://www.nova.eu/en/harnesses/), make it easy to check whether you have hooked in correctly. By the way… line sorting is also easy, because the ION 6 has sheathed main, brake and stabilo lines and follows the colour scheme recommended by the PMA: A = red, B = yellow, C = blue, brake = orange, stabilo line = green. - MATERIALS Leading edge: Skytex 38, 38g/m2 Top surface: Skytex 38, 38g/m2 Lower surface: Skytex40 EazyFly, 40g/m2 Profile ribs (suspended): Porcher Skytex 40 Hard, 40g/m2 Profile ribs (unsuspended): Porcher Skytex 40 Hard, 40g/m2 Main lines: Liros PPSL 191 / TSL 140 Gallery lines: Edelrid U-8000 series Brake lines: PPSLS 65 Risers: Kevlar 12mm - TECHNICAL DETAILS Technical data | | XXS | XS | S | M | L | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Number of cells | 51 | | Projected span | 8,38 | 8,82 | 9,26 | 9,66 | 10,10 | | Projected area | 18,30 | 20,28 | 22,34 | 24,34 | 26,38 | | Projected aspect ratio | | | Flat span | 10,51 | 11,06 | 11,61 | 12,12 | 12,62 | | Flat area | 21,28 | 23,57 | 25,97 | 28,30 | 30,67 | | Flat aspect ratio | 5,19 | | Line length | 5,75 | 6,08 | 6,41 | 6,71 | 7,01 | | Total line length | 213 | 224 | 236 | 246 | 257 | | Max. chord | 2,52 | 2,65 | 2,78 | 2,90 | 3,02 | | Weight | 4,20 | 4,45 | 4,70 | 5,00 | 5,30 | | Legal take-off weight | 60-80 | 70-90 | 80-100 | 90-110 | 100-130 | | Certification (EN/LTF) | B | B | B | B | B | ### Specifications | Size | XXS, XS, S, M, L | | --- | --- | | Colour | Sangria, Blue, Green, Orange | --- ## PHI FANTASIA (EN A) {#phi-fantasia-en-a} *Price: $3,600.00* **** **PHI Fantasia the paraglider for The Big Adventure!** PHI Fantasia is suitable as a first glider out of the school to be be used while getting through your paragliding course.

An EN A certified paraglider designed with advanced technology, immense experience and development skills at the highest level to enable a new level of safety and easiness. **Serial Colours** The FANTASIA is a gift to our paragliding sport, a candy. Typical for sweets they come in many colours. Paragliding has to get more colourful again. There are 2 available colour groups that can be ordered: CC01 Warm/Red and CC02 Cold/Blue. **Specific individual colours cannot be ordered.** **Technical Features** Apart from the **extraordinary security and the extreme simplicity** of the FANTASIA, it has some special technical features for this class, like the only 3 suspension levels over most of the span. We have also banished any Dyneema lines (as well from the brakes) in order to achieve better trim stability. Due to the spartan structure, the FANTASIA is very light even in the robust 30D / 20D mix. Performance is generally not the main focus for this class of gliders, but we found that we “can’t get rid of the performance, typical of our PHI designs.” Due to the profile used and the very clean finish (zig zag 3D shaping), this simple wing still performs very well. **FANTASIA rises extremely efficiently in thermals**. It also glides remarkably well against the wind (the very stable profile used does not bank up). **Designer’s Note** The very first promise of our sport hast still not been kept. **Easy and ultrasafe flying for everyone!** The FANTASIA is our contribution to finally delivering on this promise (after 35 years).

This paraglider was to fulfill his dreams and take him into the history books. Now, with the Epic, fellow pilots can follow on his flight path and embark on their own epic journey. If the passion for flight burns inside you, the Epic will set you free with, literally, flying colours. The Epic is ideal for pilots about to leave their house thermal for the first time, and a fun all-rounder for seasoned pilots. ## DESCRIPTION Designed to satisfy your uncontrollable urge for flying, the Epic is an intuitive, safe and graphically appealing paraglider. Bruce has packed lots of high-tech design solutions into the Epic so you can enjoy your journey at your own pace. Designed for peace of mind no matter what you meet on your journey, she will reassure while you slay that flaming dragon thermal, and see you safely past the snaking valley breeze. A shark nose, mini-ribs, light and efficient speed bar, elliptical tips and a safe but sharp brake range work together for optimal safety, handling, and performance. The Epic will give you the confidence to make your journey over the highest mountains, across the deepest valleys and to the ends of the earth and back. ## FLYING STYLE ## BRUCE’S NOTES I know how privileged I am to have found such an extraordinary sport. During my own journey I have worked out exactly what a pilot preparing to embark on their own such voyage needs. I wrote a list of requirements and designed the Epic with this in mind. The easy aspect ratio of 5.0 is the perfect balance between safety and performance. With only 42 optimised cells, this glider is a simple, rugged, and very clean paraglider. I gave the Epic an easy pitch profile and arc for a high degree of passive safety, allowing the pilot to concentrate on the flying. I wish I could have had an Epic when my story began! ## SPECIFICATIONS ## PACKAGE INCLUDES - Paraglider - Rucksack - BGD T-shirt - Speed bar - USB stick with manuals - BGD stickers - Repair kit - Stuff sack - Riser bag - Compression strap ## MATERIALS Top surface: Dominico N30 Bottom surface: Dominico N20 Internal structure: Porcher Skytex 40 hard Nose reinforcing: Plastic wire 2,3mm and 2,7 mm Risers: 13 mm black Kevlar/nylon webbing Top lines: DSL70/110 Middle lines: DSL 110 Lower lines: TSL 190/280 Brakes: DSL70 ## COLOR OPTIONS Spring Summer Winter ### Specifications | Size | XS, S, M, ML, L | | --- | --- | | Color | Spring, Summer, Winter | --- ## PHI Maestro X-alps (EN B – Light) {#phi-maestro-x-alps-en-b-light} *Price: $5,300.00* **PHI Maestro X-alps the Ultralight Racing Machine!** The Maestro X-alps is impressively demonstrating the possibilities of modern wing design in combination with new ultralight materials.

So it was possible to raise the max take-off weight by 15kg. This has to be seen as an extended weight range, for pilots who want to fly a high loaded, small, light and very agile wing, offering extreme fun. The very small VIOLAs are targetting to experienced alpine pilots looking for a very light, fast and good performing wing, that does not overreact and is behaving very trustworthy in every situation. Over the full range of VIOLAs, the demand is rising with the wing loading. A VIOLA 18 is a very easy and safe school wing loaded with 50kg, but as well a high-level sports equipment for experienced pilots at 110kg.* *Hannes Papesh* **Secrets** The secret to developing extraordinary wings is the passion to fly.

Like the MENTOR in the standard class, the SECTOR is the mile-eater of the sports class. SECTOR – for your perfect XC day! The inspiration – the mile-eaters of the sports class. For nearly a decade, the MENTOR has been the benchmark in LTF/EN B cross-country wings and it wins everything that can be won. With the new SECTOR we have taken the same approach – but in the sports class (EN C). The low aspect-ratio (5.92) is the basis for a high level of passive safety and confidence-inspiring flying characteristics. Coupled with a precise handling, the SECTOR offers an impressively high level of totally usable performance. Performance comparison. Years ago we stopped detailing absolute performance figures. Instead, we make comparisons with well-established models. Comparative flights with the MENTOR 5 showed 0.7 to 0.8 better glide points – with a very flat polar curve and high top-speed. It also clearly tops the TRITON 2. The SECTOR needs not be afraid of any comparison. Thermal flying – balanced and uncomplicated. Immediately after take off the pilot will feel a solid wing with a high comfort factor. And this happy feeling continues when initiating a turn. Short brake travel with very moderate pressure results in direct and precise responses to brake inputs. Whether the thermals are large and weak or small and strong, the SECTOR will climb in anything. It will master all turns and angles of bank. Its main strengths are balance and simplicity. Totally usable performance – it’s a confidence thing. What is the use of having great performance in the morning, when there is no wind, if the wing is tossed about in turbulent air on a mega XC day? Pitch, roll, yaw or a continually deforming wing reduce the performance. The advantage of the SECTOR is the totally usable performance – like on the MENTOR. Even in strong thermals it stays solid. The SECTOR also inherited the MENTOR’s stability at full-speed. The SECTOR gives cross-country pilots real confidence – a really important prerequisite for long-distance flights. ### Requirements In terms of the technical data, the SECTOR is nearly exactly positioned between the MENTOR 5 and the TRITON 2. The same applies to the pilot target group. Any pilot who has a handle on their MENTOR and wishes to have more performance and that “EN C feeling” in handling will love the SECTOR. In comparison to the TRITON 2, clearly the SECTOR requires less active flying – but this does not change the fact that this is a sports class wing. ### Little weight – compact packing volume In size M (90–110 kg), the SECTOR only weighs 4.4 kg! This nearly puts it in the specialist lightweight wing market. We did not, however, make this a radical lightweight construction. The internal wing construction has been analysed and optimised for strength and then made lighter by using Triple Tape Diagonals. The risers are ‘normal’, but light and slim. Our cloth choice is a clever compromise of durability and lightness. This means the SECTOR is absolutely usable for hike & fly and vol biv. Of course, the SECTOR comes with all [NOVA guarantees and services](https://www.nova.eu/en/service/). ### Further design details Diagonal Tape Ribs are lightweight and ensure a stable structure (as used on the PHANTOM). Although more complicated to manufacture, they ensure better form stability without adding weight. Automatic speed-bar stabilisation when accelerated: The outer A-line is re-routed over a pulley. This means that when using the speed-bar, the inner A-lines are fully accelerated and the outer A-lines are accelerated by 50%. The result is more wing stability and less tendency to yaw. Low Drag Brake: The Low Drag Brake on the SECTOR looks unusual, but in the course of the wing’s development we found it to be the optimal solution- both in terms of the number of line attachment points (fewer lines = more performance) and in terms of the brake pressure, sink rate when turning and steering characteristics. Easy Packing: Many current sports class wings have a complex construction with long rods and a multitude of reinforcements. For the SECTOR we applied the NOVA motto: “Keep paragliding simple”. Apart from the kink resistant nylon rods in the leading edge, we were able to avoid using any other reinforcements. The SECTOR doesn’t require a concertina bag. ### Impressions Peter Gebhard, X-Alps finisher (2013, 5th place) and former PWC competition pilot commented after testing the SECTOR in the Dolomites: “Launches easy, flies, climbs and turns well! I would describe the brake as rather short (for an EN C wing) with moderate brake pressure.” ### Attribute Everything you need to know about the SECTOR: - Low aspect ratio – high level of really usable performance - Short brake travel – moderate brake pressure - Balanced thermalling characteristics with exceptionally good climb rate - Stable on bar – flat polar - Lightweight construction – small packing volume, little weight, improved take off characteristics **** - SPECIFICATIONS - FAQS **Can I shorten the brake lines on a NOVA wing?** The brakes are components relevant to certification – modification can affect the flying characteristics and extreme flight behaviour. Because of this, we strongly advise against any modification of the brake system. It is important that the brake has sufficient travel before it engages. This is also important so that the wing does not brake automatically when the speed bar is used. Furthermore a brake that engages too early affects performance and influences the recovery during incidents, for example during a collapse or when the canopy goes parachutal. **What is the performance of my NOVA wing? How fast will it fly?** Performance data depends heavily on the drag created by the pilot and this is linked to their seating position and harness type. An aerodynamic harness or seating position can make the difference of one glide ratio point. We at NOVA never determine absolute performance data, instead we make comparisons with reference gliders. For this reason we do not publish performance data. **How do I hold the brake line correctly?** How a pilot holds the brakes is a matter of personal preference – but it does have a marked influence on the handling and flying characteristics of the wing. We recommend a half-wrap. You hold the brake handle in your palm and twist it half way around your hand so that the brake line lies between your thumb and forefinger. This shortens the brake travel by approximately 20 centimetres and this has a positive effect on feedback – firstly you directly feel the travel of the brake line and secondly, with the arms positioned higher, it is easier to feel the wing. Due to poor ergonomics, we recommend against not taking this wrap. The exception is of course when gliding or during other phases of the flight when steering with the brake is not necessary. Please note: when changing from not having a wrap to taking the wrap, the shortened brake travel must be taken into consideration. **How should NOVA wings be packed?** Simplicity is our motto. Our wings can be packed using a concertina bag, but it is not essential. In principle, all our wings can just be stuffed in a packsack. When the wing is folded it is recommended not to bend the rods unnecessarily. This is particularly true if the wing is to be stored for longer periods. Furthermore, we recommend careful handling of your wing. **Does NOVA test the materials used?** Sail cloth, lines and all other components are subjected to rigorous testing before they are used in serial production. We not only test the sail cloth for durability (high porosity or reduced tear resistance through UV damage or wear) but also for mechanical robustness, for example stretching. For quality control purposes we regularly take samples during serial production. **When should I send my wing for its first NOVA Trim Tuning (NTT)?** During the initial flights the lines are first subjected to load. This load induces a small degree of stretching and shrinking. These are not associated with the line manufacturers or the quality of workmanship – in the factory all NOVA paragliders are trimmed and pre-stretched to within a very low tolerance. To adjust this stretching or shrinking, we recommend that the wing is taken for NTT (Nova Trim Tuning) after ten to twenty flights – after one year at the very latest. Generally, the line lengths remain constant after the first ten to twenty hours. To use make full use of the NTT, Nova encourages all pilots to have their wing checked after ten to twenty flying hours. **How should NOVA wings be stored?** Dry, not packed too tightly and if possible in a space without wide temperature variations – these are the conditions that make our paragliders feel well. You should never store a wing when it is moist. You should also avoid excessive heat, like you would have, for example, in the car. Never remove dirt using chemical detergents and/or brushes. - MANUALS L - Lineplan - Manual - certification_SectorL.pdf - certification_SectorL_DE.pdf M - Lineplan - Manual - certification_SectorM.pdf - certification_SectorM_DE.pdf S - Lineplan - Manual - certification_SectorS.pdf - certification_SectorS_DE.pdf XS - Lineplan - Manual - certification_SectorXS.pdf - certification_SectorXS_DE.pdf ### Specifications | Size | XS (70 – 90kg), S (80-100kg), M (90-110kg), L (100-130kg) | | --- | --- | | Colour | Lime, Orange, Purple, Red | --- ## Gin Pegasus 3 {#gin-pegasus-3} *Price: $3,500.00* - PRODUCT DETAILS - A “do everything” wing that’s perfect for a least the first 2 seasons of your career The Pegasus 3 is a universal paramotoring wing for beginning and leisure pilots who want a confidence-inspiring wing that is also fun to fly, both with and without a motor.

It is suitable for hike & fly, traveling, recreational flying, mountaineering, flying under instruction and strong-wind soaring. **** **Complete suitability for everyday use.** The IBEX 4 is not a lightweight design pushed to the absolute limits. Materials, details and design make it perfect for everyday flying. And of course it comes with the full [NOVA guarantee package](https://www.nova.eu/en/service/). You can use it as your everyday wing without any problems. **Amazing performance.** We compared the IBEX 4 with the PRION 3 and discovered that with the same wing loading it glides better. And our team pilot Robert Schaller flew a [209 km FAI triangle](https://www.xcontest.org/2015/world/de/fluge/details/:RobertSchaller/11.8.2015/07:59) on a PRION 3! The IBEX has the potential for such flights built in! **Tip: using the IBEX 4 for instruction.** Easy launch characteristics and low weight make the IBEX 4 a training slope favourite. Then you can continue to use it as your first wing. When you progress, you will want to keep it as an additional wing for travelling and hike & fly. **What else is included?** - MORE INFORMATION **Concept – a complete new design** Of all the NOVA glider models, the IBEX 4 is the most versatile. The IBEX 4 is light with a small packing volume and offers the safety of an EN/LTF A-wing as well as very good glide performance for its classification. In comparison to its predecessor, the IBEX 4 is a completely new design. It has been built using Diagonal Tape Ribs. Sewing these force vector optimised diagonal ribs requires more effort and high manufacturing precision, but they ensure a cleaner profile. This means the IBEX 4 performs better and feels very compact and balanced in the air. It is solid in flight and is really fun to fly. **Target Group and Uses**   Due to its very high level of passive safety, the IBEX 4 has been certified EN/LTF A across a very wide weight-range. It is therefore suitable for numerous uses. **Weight Ranges** The IBEX 4 has been certified as an EN/LTF A wing in all sizes and weight-ranges. However, wing-loading does have a bearing on speed, sink rate, handling and how it feels in the air. We recommend: **Launch characteristics: extremely easy!**   Whether you are launching from rough, alpine terrain when on a hike & fly tour or during your normal paragliding training day, simple launch characteristics are essential. From the simplicity with which the few lines are sorted to the ease of inflation. Just a light tug is enough and the wing climbs evenly above the pilot, without the tendency to overshoot. The super-thin, sheathed PPSLS 65 lines make sorting them on the ground easy and they cause less drag in flight. **Useful information**   **Everything you need to know about the IBEX 4:** **Compression Bag** The IBEX 4 is delivered with our popular Compression Bag instead of a traditional backpack. This noticeably reduces the packing volume and gives it a practical flat shape. The Compression Bag is also completely waterproof and protects the wing from moisture and sweat – very useful on vol-biv or hike & fly trips. Pack the wing as small as possible, place it in the compression bag, squeeze out the air, close the bag and use the valve to expel the remaining air. The Compression Bag also protects the wing from body sweat, which can damage the coating of the cloth. **Please note:** Never store the wing in the Compression Bag permanently. For this purpose we provide the conventional pack sack, which is also included with the IBEX 4. **Impressions**   NOVA Team Pilot Werner Luidolt has undertaken many flights on a prototype IBEX 4 in France and Italy. He also knows the IBEX 3 very well: “The IBEX 4 is super-easy to launch – especially on difficult, windy or tight take-offs. A really clear improvement are the new diagonal tape ribs. They ensure a much smoother flight and a more compact wing. The IBEX 4 is a real feel-good package for relaxed “hanging out” in the air, combined with surprising performance!” - Hike & Fly: low weight, small packing volume, simple launch characteristics, good performance, The IBEX 4 is a reliable partner in the mountains. - Recreational flying: the IBEX 4 is simple to launch, turns wonderfully and offers a high level of passive safety. Exactly what is needed for relaxed thermalling. - Travelling: there is little room in luggage and usually there are weight restrictions. At the destination, safe and wonderful flights are usually the gaol, rather than record-breaking endeavours. Perfect for the IBEX 4. - Instruction: easy take off characteristics and low weight make the IBEX 4 a training slope favourite. - Soaring: Flown at the top of the weight-range, the IBEX 4 offers a lot of fun flying in strong winds – whilst retaining a high level of passive safety. - Cross-country: in general, EN/LTF A wings are not primarily designed for cross-country flying. But the performance of the IBEX 4 is so good that cross-country flights can be undertaken without problems. - Relaxed = low wing-loading: for best sink rate and calm flying behaviour. - Standard = medium wing-loading: recreational flying, longer thermic flights and/or cross-country. - Dynamic = high wing-loading: flying in high mountains (when flying down and “getting off” are priorities), strong-wind soaring (e.g. at the coast) or generally more dynamic and higher speed. - Low weight: the IBEX 4 is a very light wing (XS: 3.25 kg, 70–100 kg all-up weight) and amongst the safe lightweight wing class it has very good glide performance. The IBEX 4 glides better and flies faster than a single skin wing. - Simple is best: we have used as few lines as possible; all the main lines are sheathed. The ground handling and flying characteristics have been designed for maximum controllability. - The super-thin, sheathed PPSLS 65 lines make sorting them on the ground easy and they cause less drag in flight. - Fully guaranteed: one year of NOVA Protect, three years of guarantee. This is extended to four years if an NTT is performed. - NTT inclusive: pilots from Germany, Austria or Switzerland who register their wing at myNOVA within 14 days of purchase are entitled to our unique NOVA Trim Tuning – free of charge. - FEATURES **Montis +**   Combine your IBEX 4 with our super-light reversible hike & fly harness the MONTIS+ (from 1.3 kg, including back protector and rucksack). With an energy absorption value of 26 g and an airbag, which protects the pelvic and the back area, this harness offers a very high degree of passive safety for its type. And despite its low weight, it offers amazing comfort. The MONTIS is one of the best-selling lightweight harnesses. - TECHNOLOGY - FAQS **Is the IBEX 4 a wing suitable for mountaineering?** Yes, the IBEX 4 is highly suitable for hike & fly and mountaineering – though not exclusively. The IBEX series have always been versatile wings. The IBEX 4 even more so. It is a very light, compact and simultaneously high performing wing. With the IBEX 4 you can also have wonderful thermic flights and even go cross-country. **What kind of uses does the IBEX 4 have?** - Hike & Fly - Travelling - Recreational flights/local soaring - Mountaineering - Instruction - Soaring: with heavy wing-loading it can be used in strong winds - Cross-country - Fun: with heavy wing-loading **What are the advantages of the IBEX over a single skin glider?** When we started producing the IBEX in 2007, there were no certified single-surface gliders. The IBEX design had many excellent advantages as a mountaineering wing: low weight, small packing volume, it could be launched in tight, high alpine take-offs, quick inflation (because of the short lines), good performance, high speed (when flown with a higher wing-loading than conventional gliders) and therefore more suited to flying in strong winds. Single skin gliders obviously weigh less and can be packed to take up less space. Anyone who just wants to quickly “jog” up the hill and fly down can be satisfied with a single skin. But there are still numerous advantages of the IBEX: - More speed - Better performance - Easier to land (flare) - More enjoyment because the wing is more solid - Completely suitable for everyday use **Can I shorten the brake lines on a NOVA wing?** The brakes are components relevant to certification – modification can affect the flying characteristics and extreme flight behavior. Because of this, we strongly advise against any modification of the brake system. It is important that the brake has sufficient travel before it engages. This is also important so that the wing does not brake automatically when the speed bar is used. Furthermore a brake that engages too early affects performance and influences the recovery during incidents, for example during a collapse or when the canopy goes parachutal. **What is the performance of the IBEX 4? How fast will it fly?** Performance data depends heavily on the drag created by the pilot and this is linked to their seating position and harness type. An aerodynamic harness or seating position can make a difference of one glide ratio point. We at NOVA never determine absolute performance data, instead we make comparisons with reference gliders. For this reason we do not publish performance data. In 2015, our team pilot Robert Schaller flew a 209 km FAI triangle on a PRION 3. The IBEX 4 has even better performance than the PRION 3. The speed depends greatly on the wing-loading. If you fly the IBEX 4 at the upper end of the weight-range, it will fly pretty fast – really good for strong wind soaring. **How do I hold the brake line correctly?** How a pilot holds the brakes is a matter of personal preference – but it does have a marked influence on the handling and flying characteristics of the wing. We recommend a half-wrap. You hold the brake handle in your palm and twist it half way around your hand so that the brake line lies between your thumb and forefinger. This shortens the brake travel by approximately 20 centimetres and this has a positive effect on feedback – firstly you directly feel the travel of the brake line and secondly, with the arms positioned higher, it is easier to feel the wing. Due to poor ergonomics, we recommend against not taking this wrap. The exception is of course when gliding or during other phases of the flight when steering with the brake is not necessary. Please note: when changing from not having a wrap to taking the wrap, the shortened brake travel must be taken into consideration. **How should NOVA wings be packed?** Simplicity is our motto. Our wings can be packed using a concertina bag, but it is not essential. In principle, all our wings can just be stuffed in a packsack. When the wing is folded it is recommended not to bend the rods unnecessarily. This is particularly true if the wing is to be stored for longer periods. Furthermore, we recommend careful handling of your wing. **Does NOVA test the materials used?** Sail cloth, lines and all other components are subjected to rigorous testing before they are used in serial production. We not only test the sail cloth for durability (high porosity or reduced tear resistance through UV damage or wear) but also for mechanical robustness, for example stretching. For quality control purposes we regularly take samples during serial production. **When should I send my wing for its first NOVA Trim Tuning (NTT)?** During the initial flights the lines are first subjected to load. This load induces a small degree of stretching and shrinking. These are not associated with the line manufacturers or the quality of workmanship – in the factory all NOVA paragliders are trimmed and pre-stretched to within a very low tolerance. To adjust this stretching or shrinking, we recommend that the wing is taken for NTT (Nova Trim Tuning) after ten to twenty flights – after one year at the very latest. Generally, the line lengths remain constant after the first ten to twenty hours. To use make full use of the NTT, Nova encourages all pilots to have their wing checked after ten to twenty flying hours. **How should NOVA wings be stored?** Dry, not packed too tightly and if possible in a space without wide temperature variations – these are the conditions that make our paragliders feel well. You should never store a wing when it is moist. You should also avoid excessive heat, like you would have, for example, in the car. Never remove dirt using chemical detergents and/or brushes. **What should I do or avoid doing in order to maximise the durability of my wing?** - Avoid UV rays: minimise its exposure to the sun! - Store the wing loosely folded, in a dry, dark place. - Never store a damp wing. - Don’t drag the wing across the ground (especially the leading edge and rods). - Avoid sand and dust. - Never clean it with a hard brush or detergents. - If it is dirty, use a soft sponge and lots of water. - MANUALS M - Lineplan - Manual S - Lineplan - Manual XS - Lineplan - Manual XXS - Lineplan - Manual ### Specifications | Size | XXS, XS, S, M | | --- | --- | | Colour | Orange, Red | --- ## Nova Phantom {#nova-phantom} *Price: $6,500.00* - - **REQUIREMENTS**The PHANTOM is a paraglider in a brand-new class and therefore is suitable for a very wide range of pilots. Thanks to its high degree of passive safety and its outstanding performance, it is suitable for ambitious recreational pilots, as well as keen cross-country pilots. The PHANTOM combines the advantages of a low-end EN B wing with the performance of a high-end paraglider. If you are unsure, we will be happy to advise on any aspect of the PHANTOM! Short and Compact **Are wings with many cells difficult to fly?** No, this is a misguided belief. A higher number of cells increases glider weight, but by using lightweight materials and structurally analysed and optimised slots, we could compensate for this additional weight. **But performance wings with many cells are more challenging to fly than EN A gliders with few cells.** Correct, but this is due to the higher aspect ratio, rather than the increased number of cells. There is no direct correlation between the number of cells and how demanding a wing is to fly. **How does a large number of cells increase performance?** The more cells, the smoother the wing – which means less drag. A large number of cells also provides ultimate stability. This helps maintain performance even in turbulent air. **Didn’t NOVA produce a wing called the PHANTOM in the past?** Correct, in 1991. The similarity with the original PHANTOM is the increase in performance which was then, and now, impressive. Availability At NOVA, we worked hard on improving the availability of our gliders and as of now, all main models (PRION, ION, MENTOR and IBEX) are on stock in all sizes. Unfourtunately this will not be true for the PHANTOM: The production of the PHANTOM is extremely difficult and producing one PHANTOM takes as much time as producing 3 ION4. At the beginning, we will face delivery times of 3 months and more. However, we are confident, that we can scale up the production of the PHANTOM and achieve acceptable delivery times later this year. [Watch Video](http://superflyinc.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/Phantom_3D_WEB_1000x400.mp4) - PRODUCT DETAILS The Nova Phantom — The idea. At NOVA we asked ourselves what a low-end EN B would look like if it was constructed without being restricted by technical complexity. The result is the PHANTOM. **Experience progress.** The PHANTOM is a new, completely revolutionary paraglider – with a similar aspect-ratio to the ION and with 99 cells, it combines the safety of the ION series with high-level performance. Exceptional directional stability as well as unique precision and simplicity underpin the excellent handling. **Maximum complexity.** With 99 cells, 804 needle-eye ribs and 3200 slots in the profiles and diagonal ribs to reduce weight, the PHANTOM could be the most complex and technically elaborate wing ever made.  With more than 3000 individual components, it sets a new benchmark in paraglider construction. **Pleasure without compromise.** The PHANTOM is mainly constructed using 27 gram sail cloth. Combined with the weight-optimised inner construction, the size S wing weighs less than 5 kg. Little weight and low aspect ratio result in maximum safety. Never before has so much performance been so easy to fly. - - TECHNICAL DATA ### Specifications | Size | S, M, L | | --- | --- | | Colour | Racing Green, Rosso Corsa, White Purple, White | --- ## PHI Allegro (EN C) {#phi-allegro-en-c} *Price: $5,500.00* **PHI Allegro Fasten your seat belts!** **As the name suggests, this wing is agile and dynamic and one thing above all: damn fast.** The test pilots were always impressed by how quickly the Allegro picks up the pace. “Flying the ALLEGRO is a hot-blooded experience.” **Designer’s Note** The ALLEGRO is designed with an aspect ratio of 6 and pilot demands in the low level of the C category. This follows our strategy of taking small steps between each wing model in our range. I’ll save you the usual marketing spiel. You know what kind of performance level to expect from us in the C class! Hannes Papesh **Certification Reports** - PHI Allegro 20 - PHI Allegro 21 - PHI Allegro 22 **Reviews** - PHI Allegro – First Impressions - First XC on the Phi Allegro - PHI Allegro review by Ziad Bassil (Dust Of The Universe) **Flights** - Hammed Malik 27.6.2020 70.93 km  (Xconest) - First XC on the Phi Allegro 70km (Video) **FEEDBACK – PHI ALLEGRO** *****My first impression. *Allegro* has 6.03 AR, 72 cells, 8 closed cells on each side, 56 open cells are divided in half with the mini ribs in the leading edge so there is a total of 128 cells in the leading edge. The glider and the leading edge looks very sporty. Mini ribs in the trailing edge are long with the same design as 3D shaping often used on the leading edge. Risers have split As with A1 and A2 lines on one riser and A3 on the separate riser. All A, B, and C lines are thin sheeted lines. Stabilo is the 4th outer line on the B risers and is made from an unsheeted line.* *Allegro is floating exceptionally well in light lift, handling is intuitive, it’s easy to track a light lift with this wing. Brake pressure is progressive, it feels lighter than brakes on the Maestro. I like the brake pressure a lot, the first 1/3 is light with a good amount of response from the glider.* *Reverse launching the glider in light wind was easy and predictable. Glider launches as a whole, wingtips are solid during the launch no tendency to lug or pop up before the rest of the wing. The forward launch was straightforward, glider comes up on its own, it was like forward launching a school wing. The landing is none eventful, there is a lot of brake authority in the final flare. It feels that the glider will look after you in nill wind or slight downwind landings. Landing into the light wind was a child’s play. Launching the glider felt like launching any easy to launch EN B wing. Landing the Allegro feels easier than landing lower-rated gliders.* *The glider is light, the rods in the leading edge are short. Alegro packs very, very compact. I’ve packed mine, size M 20 into Gin 2,7 compress bag with ease and an unusual amount of room left when the compressed bag is zipped up. With 4,6 kg for size M 20, sheeted lines, easy to pack compact volume Allegro has the potential to be the swiss knife multitool in the EN C class ticking the boxes for EN C comp wing, hike and fly or vol biv glider. Allegro is made from Porcher Skytex 32 so it will be more durable than lightweight gliders made from Porcher Skytex 27. **Martin Havel*** *I felt a certain high degree of safety under the Allegro while being not too dampened as my latest tested C glider. I personally would choose the Allegro for that feedback and felt! Simply excellent! A pilot upgrading from the Maestro will find the Allegro a super easy C. The Allegro with only a 6 aspect ratio, delivers nice agility, a very good authority on the brakes, excellent gliding performance, especially on the bar! Good in climbing, while having a large passive safety for a C. **Ziad Bassil (Dust Of The Universe)**.* *It was a pleasure to launch and fly the Allegro. After flying a few different wings in the last few months and then going back to the Allegro I remembered why I love this wing so much I’ve only flown in relatively mild conditions so far so no idea if it still stumbles in rough conditions. The new risers are amazing! Just the right amount of pressure and you really feel connected to the wing. I used them with the bar a few times and I think once I get used to it, it’ll be fun to stay on the bar more often. **Hammed Malik.*** *I was sold about 30 seconds after ‘test’ launching my Allegro. I’ve owned 7 wings before the Allegro and never ever had such an instantaneous ‘wow, this feels instantly awesome’ feeling with any of the others. **Kym Fielke*** *The first flight on the Allegro 21 was a cracker. 65km FAI triangle in the middle of winter. Sold. **David Flannery*** *The stability is fantastic considering the performance and speed on the bar. Easy to control and although I had some collapses it didn’t feel out of control and was lots of fun to fly. Launching and landing was a breeze. All in all, it was a great experience. **Daron Brinsdon*** **PHI Allegro is a low EN C glider with 72 cells**, mini ribs in the leading and trailing edge. Miniribs in the leading edge will effectively turn the leading edge in **128 cells leading edge.** Allegro uses fewer lines than the older generation of EN C gliders. The reduced number of lines achieves less drag while providing a higher top speed. Glider offers agile direct handling with a solid feel for this easy to fly EN C glider. **Technical Features** The finished ALLEGRO is the result of an intensive optimisation process. Technical features were proven and adjusted to reach our goal: a wing that’s nice and easy to fly with dynamic handling yet also a pureblooded racing machine. In this way, the ALLEGRO has two facets: like a family car that transforms into a formula one beast when you step on the gas pedal. The technical effort to reach this goal was high: 72 cells, with additional mini ribs in the leading- and trailing edge, double zigzag 3D shaping on top and single on the bottom. Plenty of straps inside the wing to offer the best possible load distribution and form stability. Finally, a well-balanced mix of the newest line materials to minimize drag and avoid trim deviation. **The PHI ALLEGRO is designed with an aspect ratio of 6 in the low-level C range.** This follows our strategy of taking small steps between the different wing classes, enabling a step to step progress. **Technical Specifications** | PHI Allegro (EN C) | M | ML | L | XL | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Size | 20 | 21 | 22 | 24 | | Number of Cells | 72 | 72 | 72 | 72 | | Projected Span (m) | 9.56 | 9.69 | 10.03 | 10.37 | | Projected Area (m2) | 20.52 | 21.56 | 22.57 | 24.43 | | Projected Aspect Ratio | 4.46 | 4.46 | 4.46 | 4.46 | | Flat Span (m) | 12.00 | 12.29 | 12.58 | 13.14 | | Flat Area (m2) | 23.85 | 25.02 | 26.23 | 28.62 | | Flat Aspect Ratio | 6.03 | 6.03 | 6.03 | 6.03 | | Line Length (m) | 7.12 | 7.30 | 7.47 | 7.80 | | Total Line Length (m) | 249.4 | 256.9 | 262.9 | 273.2 | | Maximum Chord (m) | 2.48 | 2.54 | 2.60 | 2.72 | | Minimum Chord (m) | 0.55 | 0.56 | 0.58 | 0.60 | | Weight (kg) | 4.60 | 4.75 | 4.90 | 5.20 | | Certified Weight Range (kg) | 75-95 | 83-103 | 90-110 | 105-130 | | Certification (EN/LTF) | C | C | C | C | | Material | Porcher Skytex 32 | | Risers | R06 (3+1) | | Riser Length (mm) | 540 | 540 | 540 | 540 | | Speed System Travel (mm) | 170 | 180 | 180 | 200 | **Weight Ranges** **Serial Colours** **Scope of Delivery** - Glider - PHI Harmonica 43 Concertina Compress Bag - Repair Kit **PHI PROMISE GUARANTEE – 12 months Accidental Damage Protection** *Your glider and our Promise. We do everything to ensure that you are fully enjoying your new PHI paraglider.

In combination with the new riser (R07), it is offering a “game-changing” flying experience. **PHI Allegro X-alps Designer’s Note** The ALLEGRO X-alps has been completely recalculated and redesigned on the base of the ALLEGRO. There are some differences in rigging, ballooning, wing curve and wing statics. The result is an extraordinary superlight C wing. Additionally, we all are very pleased with the new semi-light riser R07. Only with these risers, it is possible to experience the full potential of this wing: the most optimal combination. Hannes Papesh **PHI Allegro X-alps technical Features** Although the ALLEGRO X-alps is based on the ALLEGRO, it is not just the same wing in light cloth. During plenty of development stages, the internal structure has been optimized towards the goal to have a rigid and ultralight wing. The most obvious difference is the fact, that the ALLEGRO X-alps has only 2 main lines in the wingspan direction (versus 3 in the ALLEGRO). The base behaviour of the ALLEGRO X-alps, however, is similar to that of his heavier brother: both are very fast and show an impressive performance especially in speed. Because of the lighter canopy, the ALLEGRO X-alps is a little more “communicative” in thermals and softer in extreme manoeuvres. The combination of the ALLEGRO X-alps and the new R07 riser with a unique ergonomic C handle position is offering a new flying sensation. The test pilots were excited: now it’s on you to try! **Reviews** - Paragliding Forum Phi Allegro X-ALPS (EN C) - Video – PHI Allegro X-alps Walkaround **Feedback** *I had a chance to fly both the Allegro and the A-XAlps in Manilla for several days. Both are amazing wings. After my first flight on the XAlps in Canungra, I thought it was more wiggly than the full-fat version. But after flying it some more, it seems more solid. Maybe a touch wigglier. I think that it was just very gusty on the first flight which made it seem snakier because the tips were surging forward in the gusts. In the SoO comp, there were several occasions where I flew with D and C wings. Omega XAlp, XCRacer, Ozone Delta 4s, 777 Queen, Queen Light, Alpina 4, Sigma 11 etc. The conditions were very light and the XAlps did very well against these wings in these conditions. One big advantage against the D wings was that I could turn inside them and regularly out climbed them. I cranked hard in the thermals while keeping the flying speed low to stay in narrow thermals and there was never a hint of a spin. On the bar, the wing is solid and the R7 risers are so smooth and the pressure is just right. In wide, light thermals you can stay on the risers to turn if you like. The handles are an extra thing for lines to get snagged when setting up but the additional attention is a small cost to pay. On bar against a Queen Light, racing to a climb ahead, the A-XAlps pulled away quite distinctly but without comms with the other pilot I don’t know how much bar he was using. Like all light Phi wings, the A-XAlps is dead simple to launch. It levitates in the air while inflating, needing a bit more work than the Maestro XAlps to keep it floating while in the air (seems to wind-vane a bit more) but it’s easy to keep under control and will make you look like a pro when everyone else is messing up their launches Overall very happy with the A-XAlps. A proper XC machine that is also a LOT of fun when ridge soaring and swooping launches. (Hammed Malik)* I had an amazing flight on the Allegro from Widgee to Gayndah recently. 115km and could’ve kept going if it wasn’t so late in the day. The Allegro is great at sniffing out the lift and pulling you into it. Amazing efficiency allows cutting into a strong wind and the glides go on forever! All in an easy to fly package with a low 6.0 aspect ratio. A perfect C wing for those moving up from B. (Hammed Malik) The X Alps performed impeccably during a 3-hour flight from Beechmont yesterday. Windy and gusty conditions but not a single collapse. A very solid glider gives a nice warning of decreasing pressure allowing time to provide corrective inputs. So far it has been no more demanding to fly than the Tenor Light including launching and full bar. I cannot comment on the collapse behaviour because I have not had one during the 5 hour demo period. (Thanks Martin). I will find out soon as I am buying and taking it to an SIV in a couple of weeks… (Daniel Fleming) Here is the report for my SIV on the X Alps large (90-110kg) flown at about 100 kg. In short, marvellous. I had flown about 8 hours on it prior to the course and had had no significant collapses. It’s my first C glider so I was anxious about how It would behave when it did collapse. Very benignly is the answer. Frontals on the full bar were uneventful. Ditto for asymmetric. Weight shift and a tiny bit of brake allow for holding a straight course. Once established, I was able to lean into the collapse and perform a controlled 180. Ears are big and you only have two A-lines so they are always big. Big ears spiral gave a rapid decent rate but it was a bit more radical than Theo de Blic had led me to believe. That said I do not cope well with Gs so for others it may be fine. Search for a spin and flat spin were easy and benign with little inertia to deal with. 360 turn reversal took 29 secs and I lost a second correcting the pitch at the end as I was too keen to get it under 28. Search for stall gave a clear signal and time to recover. The stall was the easiest and least violent I have had with not much dive in the recovery. Wing overs were also easy to control when I finally got the timing right. I could not be happier with the wing so far both for XC and SIV. (Daniel Fleming) PHI Allegro X-Alps was my first EN C wing. I had about 430 hours when I got it. Previously on NOVA ION 4, NOVA Phantom and PHI Tenor light. I could sometimes make a goal in comps on the Tenor but I wanted better into wind performance. I tried the xxxxx light and liked it but found it a bit too twitchy in normal flight for my taste. Nothing bad, just not what I like.  I then tried the allegro and immediately liked it and I liked the x alps even more because I like the benefits of a light wing. The move from the Tenor light to PHI Allegro X-Alps was a non-event. It felt like the same wing just faster with fewer collapses.Very happy with the performance. There are a lot of xxxxx wings at our club ( the designer, xxxxx is a xxxxx) so I glide regularly with them. I cannot see a difference between the performance of the xxxxx and the X-Alps and the xxxxx is considered a very high-performance C. PHI Allegro X-Alps provides plenty of feedback but no extraneous info. Generally good warnings of impending collapse and responses to active input to prevent them. If there is a collapse the Allegro X-Alps does not collapse much and it was my first C wing I was worried about what would happen when it went. I did an SIV on it and it behaved like the B wings I had previously SIV’d (NOVA ION 4, NOVA Phantom). No dramas at all. In the 70 hours I have on the two x alps, I have had one significant collapse in lee. Recovered well – no different to a B glider. Forward launching requires holding the A and the B lines for forward inflation. PHI Allegro X-Alps forwards easily in this configuration. Big ears are automatically big-big ears because there are only 2 A-lines. This is good for getting down but requires an active weight shift to control the yaw. (Daniel Fleming) **PHI Allegro X-alps Technical Data** **PHI Allegro X-alps Weight Ranges** **PHI Allegro X-alps Colours** **PHI R07 Risers** The brand new semi-light riser R07 is offering an ergonomically optimized C handle position.

The Hybrid combines a classic double surface profile with a single surface profile, together creating a hybrid profile design. The Tandem is based on the original Hybrid, and was further improved for use as a Tandem wing. Its main advantages are: ✅ The easiest inflation characteristics available period. Less prone to inadvertent inflation than a single skin glider. ✅ Low Take-Off Speed – for even the most uncooperative passengers. ✅ Real Flare capability – better than any single Skin. ✅ Very Light brake pressure. ✅ Un-matched Roll and pitch Stability, truly amazing! Designed for both Paramotor and mountain flying, the Hybrid tandem delivers the easiest and smoothest flight experience possible for you and your passengers. Certified EN-B with both Trimmers closed and Open, with a weight range from 110 to 190 Kg. The Hybrid Tandem is the easiest tandem wing on the market. It brings everything the solo Hybrid offers to the hands of the tandem pilot: Phenomenal inflation and Launch, even with a light tail wind, Outstanding passive and active safety characteristics, Perfect, predictable and light handling, Low sink rate with great thermalling, and of course, what every tandem pilot wants – Easy and predictable landing! (unlike single skins). This unique design combines a classic double surface profile with a single surface profile, together creating a hybrid profile which provides really special flying characteristics. Putting aside all the hype – this wing must be flown to be believed! The Hybrid tandem offers many advantages over both classic tandems and single skin designs. It is evident that “Hybrid type” wings are becoming a standard on the market with many companies introducing similar concept designs and we are proud to once again set future standards with the first Tandem Hybrid wing! Background The original Hybrid project started off as a concept, an idea that we wanted to explore but never expected what we found! The initial test flights of the first prototype were so impressive that we virtually dropped all other projects in an effort to bring this wing to the market. After 2 years of intense R&D we launched the HYBRID! The Hybrid must be flown to believe all the “hype” around it, but we promise you it is that SPECIAL! Any pilot that had the chance to try it was amazed and after only 1 flight, convinced that this concept is here to stay! The Hybrid Tandem is light (4.4 kg), but not designed to be a “Lightweight” wing. the absence of bottom surface on the back part of the wing saves weight but is also what makes it fly in such a special way. The Hybrid is much more than an exotic wing for special purposes. It offers many advantages over single skin designs and also classic wings in beginner to sport categories. Hybrid wings will become mainstream products within a few years, replacing many classic designs out there. We are proud that APCO is behind such an innovation! This project has been long and difficult but we are sure the term “Hybrid” will be forever coined into our sport! #### Background This project started off as a concept, an idea that we wanted to explore but never expected what we found!

Top surface is a hybrid combination of Skytex 27 and Skytex 33 gr. The 33gr. material is used on the front of top surface as it is the highest loaded part of the canopy and there it is critical to maintain best porosity possible over time. The rear part of top surface is Skytex 27 gr. for additional weight saving. Bottom surface is Skytex 27 Gr. Ribs are made from Skytex 33 gr. hard finish. Lines are all Cousin Trestec, specified in the table below.

Contrary to a Single Skin, you are not tossed around by the currents, the pilot is in control and will enjoy strong thermal conditions! The Hybrid has enough air mass and inertia to penetrate through the air rather then being controlled by the air. - ### ROLL STABILITY Especially dominant with a paramotor – this wing is more roll stable than anything out there. With this wing, there will be NO roll oscillation what so ever!! When free flying, the pilot will notice that it is “hard” to perform wing-overs. This is due to the increased roll stability of this wing. - ### BRAKE PRESSSURE Very very low! On a classic profile, the brakes need to be applied against the internal pressure of the wing. With the Hybrid, as with single skin designs the brakes create only drag and therefore are much more efficient. This wing feels accurate and precise, the brakes are progressive and constantly transmitting the air around you. - ### TAKE OFF Take-off speed is surprisingly slow.  This helps tremendously in “not perfect” take-off conditions, or with uncooperative passenger! Back-wind of 5-7 [kmh] is not a problem with the Hybrid. Same goes for front launches with a paramotor, few steps and you are airborne. Inflation is as on superlight single-skin wings, it will come overhead and stay there! - ### LANDING Compared to single surface wings, which tend to have very poor flair capabilities, the Apco Hybrid has a flair as good as traditional paragliders in class A or B, only better in that the wing has a very long and forgiving brake range, making manoeuvres such as butterfly landings particularly effective for top-landing. - ### FLARE Contrary to single skin wings, the Hybrid flare is superb! Due to its high stall resistance and long brake travel, it flare is close to that of a normal wing! - ### THERMALLING The Apco Hybrid has exceptional thermaling characteristics due to its low sink rate in turns and low airspeed capabilities. It will easily settle in a constant angle of bank turn in a thermal, requiring very little pitch or roll input once centred, resulting in a superior climb rate, which will have you at the top of the gaggle in no time. Flying the Hybrid feels like the wing is “taming down” the conditions. 7 [m/s] thermals, will feel like 4 [m/s] with calm and peaceful behavior. - ### PERFORMANCE The Hybrid offers performance that is substantially higher than that of single skin gliders, and at trim speed, it is as good as a conventional glider. The custom Sharknose profile keeps the wing highly pressurised and collapse resistant throughout the speed range. - ### WING FEEDBACK Feedback from the wing is always gentle with no surprises, even in rough air, but remains simple to understand. It requires surprisingly little active piloting to keep the wing inflated and on the desired heading. - ### Commercial Pilots Coming in at only 4 [kg] including standard webbing risers, (not flimsy rope risers!) Add to this the ease of take-off at nil wind or even back-wind, and it’s perfect for commercial tandem. It has better performance than a single skin with proven Safety. It will make your life so much easier with a better, more enjoyable flying experience for your passenger. - ### HYBRID Best of both worlds, rolled into one lightweight, compact package. ### Features - ### EHP Embed Hook-In Points - ### FAR Flow Aligned Ribs (FAR – pat. pending) - ### APP Automatic Pressurising Profile - ### L/E FLEXON battens® A system for improved launch, lighter weight, prolonged lifespan - ### 3D Cut Additional 3D cut on the leading edge for clean construction and improved profile definition - ### BBP Air Extreme Ball bearing Pulleys ® - ### LSR Latest laser cutting technology. - ### NBM Integral built-in neodymium brake magnets - ### LNK Integral V-Links Replace traditional rapide maillon on the Risers ### Certification | Size | Certification Type | | --- | --- | | Tandem (35) | [EN – B](https://www.apcoaviation.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/PG_1453-2019_ST_Hybrid_Tandem_35.pdf) [DGAC](https://www.apcoaviation.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/Apco_Hybrid_Tandem_35_DGAC.pdf) | ### [Manual](https://www.apcoaviation.com/hybrid_tandem/) Apco Hybrid Tandem Manual ([Download Pdf](https://www.apcoaviation.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/Apco_Hybrid_Tandem_Manual_2021_01_20.pdf)) ### Specifications | Colours | Breeze, Lagoon, Surf | | --- | --- | --- ## Sup'Air Pilot Paragliding Helmet {#supairpilotparaglidinghelmet} *Price: $150.00* The PILOT helmet was specially developed by SUPAIR for paragliding schools.

Extensive comparative testing was completed during the development process where the Rush 6 significantly outperformed every wing it was tested against. Derived directly from the Delta 4, the Rush 6 shares performance development features with the Enzo and Zeno series wings. ### True Performance Hundreds of hours test flying in the turbulent conditions of the Southern-Alps have satisfied our own most stringent passive safety requirements. The Rush 6 has True Performance — real, useable glide and speed in active XC conditions throughout the entire speed range. ### New Tech Stability in accelerated flight has been improved thanks to a new profile, optimised internal structure, and the ACR system. The Rush 6's structure is the strongest we have yet made; even in aggressive turbulence the profile remains undisturbed, retaining its shape and efficiency with no chordwise deformation. ### ACR System The Active Control Risers, inherited directly from the Delta 4, give the pilot full angle of attack control without deforming profile camber. ACR risers act on the B and C lines, allowing 2-line style control with the comfort of a 3-line design. ### The Design The entire Rush 6 design is evolved from the Delta 4, and it is a similar wing in every respect. The Aspect Ratio has been kept moderate for passive safety, fun, and higher levels of passive safety. Performance gains have been made through optimisation of the 3/2 line layout, new additional 3D shaping splits the leading edge, and modifications to the shaping of the panels and trailing edge / mini rib construction — all of which lead to significant reductions in parasitic drag and resultant glide & speed increases. ### Patented Shark Nose Profile Since Ozone first invented the Shark Nose Profile in 2011, it has evolved a great deal. The Rush 6 version is refined to increase stability, comfort, and performance, as well as a highly forgiving brake range – the wing is extremely resistant to accidental spin or stall. The leading edge also features Ozone G-strings which maintain the shape of cell openings during accelerated flight, reducing vibration and flutter drag. ### The Launch Inflation characteristics have been significantly improved compared to the Rush 5. By refining the leading edge, nil-wind performance is on par with some of our easiest wings, with a light and responsive feel. High-wind launches are very easily managed, with no tendency to overshoot. ### In Flight In the air, a slightly higher top speed and more dynamic feel resemble a supercharged Rush, more similar to a Delta in terms of handling excitement. The brakes are precise in the first part of the range and highly effective in the second Climbing efficiency is aided by the strong chord structure and excellent sail cohesion. ### The Pilot With sporty, dynamic handling, great top speed, and high levels of passive safety in a comfortable and accessible package, the Rush 6 is suitable for a wide range of pilots. With EN B certification, it is ideal for experienced intermediate recreational and XC pilots who fly at least 50 hours per year. ### SPECIFICATIONS | Size | XS | S | MS | ML | L | XL | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Number of cells | 57 | 57 | 57 | 57 | 57 | 57 | | Projected area (m²) | 18.04 | 20.11 | 21.2 | 22.3 | 23.65 | 25.96 | | Flat Area (m²) | 21.41 | 23.86 | 25.16 | 26.5 | 28.06 | 30.81 | | Projected Span (m) | 8.55 | 9.02 | 9.27 | 9.51 | 9.78 | 10.25 | | Flat Span (m) | 10.9 | 11.51 | 11.81 | 12.13 | 12.48 | 13.08 | | Projected Aspect Ratio | 4.05 | 4.05 | 4.05 | 4.05 | 4.05 | 4.05 | | Flat Aspect Ratio | 5.55 | 5.55 | 5.55 | 5.55 | 5.55 | 5.55 | | Root Chord (m) | 2.47 | 2.61 | 2.68 | 2.75 | 2.83 | 2.97 | | Glider Weight (kg) | 4.63 | 5 | 5.19 | 5.47 | 5.71 | 6.2 | | Certified Weight Range (kg) | 55-70 | 65-85 | 75-95 | 85-105 | 95-115 | 110-130 | | Recommended Flying Weight (kg) | 60-70 | 70-84 | 82-94 | 90-104 | 100-114 | 112-128 | | EN | B | B | B | B | B | B | --- ## Ozone Vibe GT Paraglider {#ozone-vibe-gt} *Price: $5,200.00* Mid-EN-B wing for pilots stepping up from EN A or low EN B who want higher efficiency, sharper handling, and 2-liner-style rear-riser steering. ## PRODUCT INFO The original Vibe redefined performance and fun and launched the next generation of intermediate wings. The all new Vibe GT brings that legacy into the modern era with exciting new tech. It is positioned precisely in the middle of the EN B category between the Buzz and the Rush. It offers the trusted Ozone performance in an easy-to-fly package, designed to maximise enjoyment and deliver a simple, joyful flying experience that always puts a smile on your face. ### New Features For the first time on a 3-line EN B, the Vibe GT features a fully developed rear-riser steering system delivering 2-liner-style Angle of Attack (AoA) control. This system allows accurate pitch control on bar without profile distortion, improving efficiency across the speed range and giving pilots refined pitch authority when accelerated. It offers a direct pathway toward 2-line techniques while retaining the comfort and security of a 3-line platform. ### The Pilot The Vibe GT is the natural progression for pilots stepping up from EN A or low EN B wings. It is designed for those seeking higher efficiency, sharper handling, and modern control systems without stepping into the demands of higher categories. In other words, for pilots who want to fly high and relaxed! ### The Tech With an aspect ratio of 5.45 and 55 cells, the Vibe GT is centered in the Ozone EN B range of wings, ideal for pilots ready to step beyond entry-level performance. Every element of the Vibe GT has been optimised for efficiency and cohesion. A low drag line plan, double 3D shaping, an advanced internal structure, and an exceptionally clean leading edge all combine for high aerodynamic efficiency. Mini-ribs refine the trailing edge for reduced drag and sharper brake response. A higher arc, combined with winglets, increases sail tension and turn authority while improving side-collapse behaviour and ensuring predictable spiral characteristics — a critical quality in the mid-B class. The result is a wing that feels compact, direct, and coordinated in active air. ### In Flight Efficient, playful, and composed, the Vibe GT handling is beautifully coordinated. Turn initiation is clean and progressive, with excellent roll authority and balanced yaw response. It cores efficiently, holds bank angles naturally, and transitions smoothly between thermals and glides. Reduced sail inertia — thanks to the GT semi-light construction — increases responsiveness and amplifies the sense of connection to the air. Glide efficiency is strong throughout the speed range, and the rear-steering system enhances control and efficiency when accelerated. Drag reduction through refined line architecture, winglet integration, and clean trailing edge construction translates directly into measurable gains in glide and usable speed. Despite its performance focus, the Vibe GT maintains reassuring pitch stability and predictable collapse behaviour. The moderate aspect ratio and cohesive internal structure preserve accessibility while allowing pilots to push further with confidence. Spiral behaviour remains balanced and controlled — exactly as it should in a mid-level EN B. ### The GT Range Part of the GT range, the Vibe GT combines reduced sail weight with everyday durability. Lower mass improves inflation, handling precision, and collapse behaviour while maintaining long-term robustness. ## SPECIFICATIONS | Size | XS | S | MS | ML | L | XL | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Number of cells | 55 | 55 | 55 | 55 | 55 | 55 | | Projected area (m²) | 17.69 | 19.53 | 20.81 | 22.13 | 23.33 | 25.14 | | Flat Area (m²) | 21.04 | 23.22 | 24.75 | 26.32 | 27.75 | 29.9 | | Projected Span (m) | 8.35 | 8.77 | 9.06 | 9.34 | 9.59 | 9.96 | | Flat Span (m) | 10.71 | 11.25 | 11.61 | 11.97 | 12.29 | 12.76 | | Projected Aspect Ratio | 3.94 | 3.94 | 3.94 | 3.94 | 3.94 | 3.94 | | Flat Aspect Ratio | 5.45 | 5.45 | 5.45 | 5.45 | 5.45 | 5.45 | | Root Chord (m) | 2.49 | 2.62 | 2.70 | 2.78 | 2.86 | 2.97 | | Glider Weight (kg) | 3.73 | 4.13 | 4.23 | 4.39 | 4.58 | 4.85 | | Certified Weight Range (kg) | 55-75 | 65-85 | 75-95 | 85-105 | 95-115 | 110-130 | | EN | B | B | B | B | B | B | --- ## Ozone MagMax 3 Paramotor Wing {#ozone-magmax-3} *Price: $5,300.00* EN B foot-launched tandem paramotor wing designed for experienced, qualified tandem pilots seeking exceptional launch ease and crew comfort. ## The Ultimate Professional Tandem for Foot Launch and Light Trike.

The Alpina retains its legendary agility and playfulness in a compact and light package, with improved full speed efficiency and control. ### The Pilot Designed for intermediate to advanced level pilots wanting to evolve, it is the ideal stepping stone into 2-line technology. Suitable for those moving up from a high-B and for more experienced pilots wanting 2-liner control and performance with a lower aspect ratio for unparalleled solidity and ease of use. ### The Tech The Alpina is our lowest aspect ratio 2-liner light wing. Derived from the Lyght and developed using all of the knowledge gained from years of competition experience and 2-line technical know how, the Alpina benefits from a proven light internal structure design, and is a solid compact platform ideal for XC flying in the most remote locations. The 2-line design allows for direct angle of attack control and reduced line drag for exceptional good levels of performance and ease of use never seen before in such a low aspect ratio concept. Compared to its predecessor, inflation, performance, accelerated control has been improved with absolutely no compromise on general ease of use and on our True Performance promise. The weight reduction is due to a complex internal structure derived from the Zeolite GT development. The ultralight internals yield the same solidity and rigidity with reduced sail weight and improved handling. The wing absorbs turbulence without losing span cohesion so the wing remains compact even in the strongest air which is a very desirable characteristic for responsive handling on the strongest of conditions. ### Certification The Alpina 5 is certified EN-C for all sizes with folding lines. ### In Flight The Alpina retains the ease of use and True Performance characteristics of its predecessor but with easier inflation characteristics and full speed control. It rises fast and easy in nil-wind and does not overshoot in strong winds. Thanks to the 2 line design, accelerated control is enhanced and intuitive allowing you to maintain higher speeds through turbulence with full angle of attack control. Compared to the Delta 5, the lighter sail of the Alpina 5 inflates faster on the ground for easier take offs and a higher level of feel in the air and a more responsive reaction to brake inputs and slighty higher level of overall agility. Big ears can be performed with either the AR3 or BR3 technique. The AR3 requires a firm pull to initiate - we did not want to compromise the wing tip solidity in normal flying - but once in remains stable throughout the speed range. Big ears with BR3 are less effective but easier to initiate and faster to recover. The Alpina 5 features risers with adjustable B-handle heights, enhancing ergonomic control to accommodate pilots of all shapes and sizes. ### Package Contents Your OZONE wing is delivered standard with the following accessories: Special Folding Pillow, Concerto Light Folding Bag, Key Ring, Bottle Opener, Certificate of Authenticity, Two Sheets of White Sticky Cloth and Riser Bag.

Designed for pilots who want the improved inflation, agility and handling inherent in light wings, the Lyght is a solid and dependable wing for big mountain adventures. The reduced sail weight makes a noticeable difference in the handling. The weight reduction is due to a complex internal structure derived from the Zeolite GT development. The ultralight internals yield the same solidity and rigidity with reduced sail weight and improved handling. Like the Photon, the Lyght is compact and solid throughout the speed range thanks to the stable profile, and the span & chordwise sail cohesion. It is trimmed for safety & ease of use. The performance of the wing is immediately apparent - we have never flown an EN C wing with so much glide. It is a true 2-Liner wing, allowing the pilot direct angle of attack control throughout the speed range using a new adjustable B-riser control system developed specifically for the Lyght. ### Performance Incorporating many design features of the Enzo and our highest performance wings, the glide and speed of the Lyght is at the top of its class. Lightweight construction improves the inflation and handling characteristics, and the improved sail cohesion and moderate aspect ratio makes it manageable and comfortable to fly in turbulent air. In terms of speed, it is the fastest EN C wing we have ever built, the top speed is only slightly less than the Zeno2. Importantly it is solid and comfortable at these speeds and the winglets improve the roll stability for higher levels of efficiency in accelerated flight. ### Passive Safety Extensive in-house collapse testing by the Ozone R&D team has proven that the wing easily meets the safety requirements of the class, with side and frontal collapse behaviour very similar to the Delta 4. ### The Pilot The Lyght is ideal for experienced pilots looking for lightweight performance who have prior time flying EN C category wings, and recent SIV experience. Certified EN C and available in six sizes, it is suitable for experienced pilots who have prior time flying EN C category wings and possess a high level of glider control skills with recent SIV experience. ### Package Contents Your OZONE wing is delivered standard with the following accessories: Special Folding Pillow, Concerto Light Folding Bag, Key Ring, Bottle Opener, Certificate of Authenticity, Two Sheets of White Sticky Cloth, Riser Bag You may choose to add something to your order, such as: Glider Backpack, Easy Bag (quick stuff sack), or OZONE Clothing and Accessories. ### SPECIFICATIONS | Size | XS | S | MS | ML | L | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Number of cells | 71 | 71 | 71 | 71 | 71 | | Projected area (m²) | 16.1 | 17.4 | 18.9 | 20.2 | 21.5 | | Flat Area (m²) | 19.1 | 20.7 | 22.3 | 23.9 | 25.5 | | Projected Span (m) | 8.7 | 9.0 | 9.4 | 9.7 | 10.1 | | Flat Span (m) | 11.1 | 11.6 | 12.0 | 12.5 | 12.9 | | Projected Aspect Ratio | 4.7 | 4.7 | 4.7 | 4.7 | 4.7 | | Flat Aspect Ratio | 6.5 | 6.5 | 6.5 | 6.5 | 6.5 | | Root Chord (m) | 2.17 | 2.25 | 2.34 | 2.43 | 2.5 | | Glider Weight (kg) | 4.28 | 4.47 | 4.75 | 5 | 5.27 | | Certified Weight Range (kg) | 60-75 | 70-85 | 80-95 | 90-105 | 100-115 | | EN / LTF | C | C | C | C | C | --- ## Ozone Photon Paraglider {#ozone-photon} *Price: $6,350.00* Sport class 2-liner bringing near-competition performance to experienced EN C pilots with strong glider control skills and recent SIV experience. ## PRODUCT INFO **Sport Class 2-Liner** The Photon brings near-competition class performance to experienced sport class pilots. All of Ozone's 2-liner know-how has gone into designing this wing. A long development period with extensive prototyping and hundreds of hours of flying and safety testing has gone into this project, and we are very satisfied with the Photon's "True Performance" in real XC conditions. The Photon represents the missing link between conventional 3-liners and high performance wings such as the Zeno2 and Enzo3. ### The Design The Photon was developed from the Zeno 2. The aspect ratio is slightly lower, and the cell count is more moderate. We have also used a more inherently stable profile. By increasing the arc, several comfort and handling factors have been improved, and winglets have been added to compensate the effect of increased arc on roll stability and spiral behavior. The end result is the most accessible 2 liner we have ever developed. ### Character in Flight The Photon feels compact and solid throughout the speed range thanks to the stable profile, and the span & chordwise sail cohesion. It is trimmed for safety & ease of use, with great handling. The performance of the wing is immediately apparent - we have never flown an EN C wing with so much glide. It is a true 2-Liner wing, allowing the pilot direct angle of attack control throughout the speed range, which has safety benefits for experienced pilots and allows for higher average speeds whilst gliding in turbulent air. The rear riser control is intuitive and confidence inspiring. This wing is an ideal stepping stone for those new to this type of flying. ### Performance The glide performance is close to that of the Zeno 2 but the improved sail cohesion and lower aspect ratio makes it less demanding and more comfortable to fly. In terms of speed, it is the fastest EN C wing we have ever built, faster than the D4, M7 and Zeolite and the top speed is only slightly less than the Zeno2. Importantly it is solid and comfortable at these speeds and the winglets improve the roll stability for higher levels of efficiency in accelerated flight. ### Passive Safety Extensive in-house collapse testing by the Ozone R&D team has proven that the wing easily meets the safety requirements of the class, with side and frontal collapse behaviour very similar to the Delta 4. We don't only test our wings in calm air, and the Photon is no exception. We have spent hundreds of hours pushing this wing hard, in real conditions, to confirm real life solidity and its true recovery from collapses, to ensure the wing is suitable for sport class pilots. ### The Pilot Certified EN C and available in six sizes, it is suitable for experienced pilots who have prior time flying EN C category wings and possess a high level of glider control skills with recent SIV experience. ### Package Contents Your OZONE wing is delivered standard with the following accessories: - Special Folding Pillow - Concerto Light Folding Bag - Key Ring - Bottle Opener - Certificate of Authenticity - Two Sheets of White Sticky Cloth - Riser Bag You may choose to add something to your order, such as: Glider Backpack, Easy Bag (quick stuff sack), or OZONE Clothing and Accessories. ## SPECIFICATIONS | Size | XS | S | MS | ML | L | XL | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Number of cells | 71 | 71 | 71 | 71 | 71 | 71 | | Projected area (m²) | 16.1 | 17.4 | 18.9 | 20.2 | 21.5 | 23.1 | | Flat Area (m²) | 19.1 | 20.7 | 22.3 | 23.9 | 25.5 | 27.3 | | Projected Span (m) | 8.7 | 9.0 | 9.4 | 9.7 | 10.1 | 10.4 | | Flat Span (m) | 11.1 | 11.6 | 12.0 | 12.5 | 12.9 | 13.3 | | Projected Aspect Ratio | 4.7 | 4.7 | 4.7 | 4.7 | 4.7 | 4.7 | | Flat Aspect Ratio | 6.5 | 6.5 | 6.5 | 6.5 | 6.5 | 6.5 | | Root Chord (m) | 2.17 | 2.25 | 2.34 | 2.43 | 2.5 | 2.59 | | Glider Weight (kg) | 4.28 | 4.47 | 4.75 | 5 | 5.27 | 5.55 | | Certified Weight Range (kg) | 60-75 | 70-85 | 80-95 | 90-105 | 100-115 | 110-130 | | EN / LTF | C | C | C | C | C | C | --- ## Ozone Speedster 3 Paramotor Wing {#ozone-speedster-3} *Price: $4,600.00* Fully reflexed paramotor wing for intermediate-to-advanced PPG pilots wanting long-distance XC, low-level carving, and slalom flying capability. ## Overview The Speedster is a fully reflexed Paramotor wing designed for intermediate to advanced level pilots. Predominantly designed for long distance PPG XC flights, the Speedster is a fun, dynamic and versatile wing that can be also used for low level carving and slalom flying. The latest design incorporates technologies taken from our high performance paragliding range, the development of which is guided by feedback from paramotor pilots all over the world and tested by the world's best. Although specifically designed for PPG, due to the high levels of efficiency and excellent handling characteristics the Speedster can also be used for free flying – ideal for ridge soaring, thermalling even XC flights. ### The Pilot The Speedster is designed for intermediate and advanced level pilots alike. It is ideal for intermediate pilots progressing from lower level wings, such as the Roadster, and for more experienced pilots who do not want the extra demands of a competition wing. ### Speed and Stability The core elements of an effective Paramotoring wing are speed and stability. The Speedster is fast, but more importantly, solid throughout the speed range. The large trim range allows high speed cruising without the need to engage the accelerator system. At full speed the Speedster remains very resistant to collapses, even in turbulent air and is easy to maintain thanks to the super smooth action of the risers that does not deform the profile. The risers are simple and easy to use, the full foot-operated accelerator range is always accessible irrespective of the trimmer position. Unlike some other PPG wings, it is safe and possible to use the full range of the speed system even with the trimmers in the standard (slow) position without reducing the inherent stability of the profile. The carefully designed and tested OZRP reflex profile is not only solid and fast but also forgiving. As the amount of reflex increases in a profile, certain other parameters can suffer: namely, ease of launch, quality of handling, fuel efficiency, and passive safety. These categories, for us, are extremely important and not to be compromised, we always strive to implement intelligent combinations of stable profiles and complex internal structures to improve the development of the Speedster range. ### Agility At Ozone handling is a top priority in every wing we design. From our most basic school wing to the highest performing competition wings, we always aim to make wings that are a pleasure to fly. The Speedster's agile and responsive handling is a result of hundreds of hours of testing and refinement from an experienced design team and some of the World's best pilots. The Speedster is an agile fun wing that handles like a paragliding wing rather than a normal reflexed PPG wing. The Ozone Tip Steering System TST is simple, efficient, and easy to use and allows safe and effective control during accelerated flight, without the use of brakes. The optional 2D system, derived from competition slalom racing, allows for precise control across the span of the trailing edge. The 2D system combines the brakes and the TST, transforms the character of the Speedster – the wing becomes more dynamic and responsive with improved precision of control and allows the full potential of the handling to be unlocked. ### Launching The inflation and ground handling behaviour is extremely important for a fun safe flight. Extra attention is placed on the launch characteristics of the Speedster so that it inflates evenly and with little effort in nil wind conditions, whilst inflating steadily, without over-shooting, in strong wind conditions. ### Legacy The continual development of the Speedster model range is an important mission for us, our aim is to always improve the concept to make it better, safer and more fun to fly. After a long development process we are now happy with the changes that have been made, our testing proves the new wing is a real pleasure to fly, with a surprisingly high top speed and a general ease of use that will appeal to discerning Paramotor pilots. ### Structure The Speedster 3 combines the well proven design elements of the Speedster 2, Freeride slalom and our high performance paraglider range: The arc, planform, aspect ratio, tab positioning, profile and intake positions are very similar to the Speedster 2 but blended with the internal structure and line rigging of the Freeride. Additional top surface straps have been implemented to increase the overall tension of the sail which is spread more homogenously along the span to improve the cohesion and feel of the wing. ### Fast and efficient 3D shaping in the leading edge reduces drag and increases the amount of lift generated. With two extra cells and a cleaner leading edge, combined with the reduced amount of line drag, optimised profile and longer range trimmers, the Speedster 3 is the most efficient Speedster yet. Ideal for long XC flights, classic competitions and fun slalom races. ### Stable and safe The optimised OZRP Reflex profile accepts large amounts of turbulence without collapse throughout the speed range so is well suited for flying in thermic conditions. Load tested to the EN 926-1 standard and acknowledged by the DGAC, our extensive internal testing has shown the Speedster 3 to exhibit very similar behaviour to the previous models and conforms to the requirements of EN C (trimmers set in the slow position). *Note the Speedster 3 has not been independently EN 926-2 flight tested. ### Versatility, agility and fun The character of the Speedster 3 is determined by the wing loading and the use of the optional 2D steering system. Centred in the weight range with the standard brake set up, the wing is an efficient climber perfect for normal XC flying. Installing the 2D system further improves the responsiveness, control and agility of the wing. Flying a smaller size at the top of the range transforms the character completely into a dynamic and agile wing with high levels of precision, perfect for low level carving or fun slalom racing. ### Differences compared to the Speedster 2: - 3D shaping leading edge - Extra cells and better sink rate performance - More performance = better fuel efficiency - Higher top speed - More speed range in the trimmers - More precise and dynamic handling ## Specifications | Size | 20 | 22 | 24 | 26 | 28 | 30 | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Number of cells | 56 | 56 | 56 | 56 | 56 | 56 | | Flat Area (m²) | 20 | 22 | 24 | 26 | 28 | 30 | | Projected area (m²) | 17.2 | 18.9 | 20.6 | 22.3 | 24.0 | 25.7 | | Flat Span (m) | 10.57 | 11.08 | 11.58 | 12.05 | 12.51 | 12.95 | | Projected Span (m) | 8.3 | 8.71 | 9.09 | 9.47 | 9.82 | 10.17 | | Projected Aspect Ratio | 4.02 | 4.02 | 4.02 | 4.02 | 4.02 | 4.02 | | Flat Aspect Ratio | 5.6 | 5.6 | 5.6 | 5.6 | 5.6 | 5.6 | | Root Chord (m) | 2.42 | 2.54 | 2.66 | 2.76 | 2.87 | 2.97 | | Glider Weight (kg) | 4.63 | 5.04 | 5.3 | 5.6 | 5.9 | 6.17 | | PG (EN) Weight Range (kg) | 55-75 | 55-90 | 70-95 | 80-110 | 95-125 | 110-140 | | PPG (DGAC) Weight Range (kg) | 55-110 | 55-120 | 70-130 | 80-145 | 95-160 | 110-170 | | Certification | DGAC | DGAC | DGAC | DGAC | DGAC | DGAC | ## Materials - Top Surface Cloth: Dominico 30D - Bottom Surface Cloth: Porcher 9018 E65 - Rib cloth: Porcher 9017 E29 (hard) - Upper lines: Liros DSL serie - Lower Lines: Edelrid 7343 / 10-200 --- ## Ozone Zeolite 2 Paraglider {#ozone-zeolite-2} *Price: $7,200.00* Lightweight EN D wing for hike & fly competition, vol-biv, and serious XC pilots — proven in the 2023 X-Alps race. This new light glider design was flown with great success in the 2023 X-Alps race. It is the same weight as the zeolite 1 but with slightly higher aspect ratio and more cells (71). The Zeolite 2 development process pulled technology from the Zeno, Photon and the Zeolite 2 XD (2023 X-Alps Design). This potent DNA combination has yielded a comfortable and highly efficient tool for hike & fly competition, vol-biv, and serious XC. ### The Design The profile has evolved to include the latest progress we've made in the areas of speed and handling. Principally, the benefits have come from a new cell opening position. The aspect ratio is slightly increased, but still moderate for the category and very has proved to be comfortable in strong alpine conditions. The cell count is increased by 7, but a new refined structure provides the resulting performance increase without adding weight. The Fabric is now Dominico 10D. This fabric is more durable than the skytex on the Zeolite 1 but lighter and double coated. ### In Flight Passive safety and collapse behavior has been improved via better chordwise line support at the rear of the wing. Despite the improved support, total line drag is less than its predecessor. A new spanwise architecture is made entirely of 3-cell bridges, similar to the Photon. This allows the best diagonal panel ratio for the amount of line attachments, which maintains light weight while increasing efficiency. Relative to the Photon, The Zeolite GT is a faster and more agile wing for more experienced pilots. The Zeolite GT's arc and winglet-free design yields the best possible thermalling experience while maintaining good collapse recovery behavior, however the pilot workload in turbulent air is higher than the Photon. The Zeolite requires more precise inputs in strong conditions as it is less pitch & roll stable. It is 1kg lighter and lower pack volume than the Photon. The durability of both wings is similar. ### SPECIFICATIONS | Size | XS | S | MS | ML | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Number of cells | 71 | 71 | 71 | 71 | | Projected area (m²) | 15.9 | 17.2 | 18.5 | 19.8 | | Flat Area (m²) | 18.9 | 20.4 | 22 | 23.5 | | Projected Span (m) | 8.9 | 9.3 | 9.6 | 9.9 | | Flat Span (m) | 11.3 | 11.8 | 12.2 | 12.6 | | Projected Aspect Ratio | 5 | 5 | 5 | 5 | | Flat Aspect Ratio | 6.8 | 6.8 | 6.8 | 6.8 | | Root Chord (m) | 2.09 | 2.17 | 2.26 | 2.33 | | Glider Weight (kg) | 2.72 | 2.88 | 3.03 | 3.16 | | In-flight Weight Range (kg) | 60-75 | 65-85 | 80-95 | 90-105 | | EN | D | D | D | D | --- ## Ozone Zeolite 2 GT Paraglider {#ozone-zeolite-2-gt} *Price: $7,000.00* More durable version of the ultralight X-Alps hike & fly racing machine for high-level XC and hike & fly pilots. Like its predecessor, the Zeolite2 GT is a more durable version of the the ultralight hike & fly racing machine, the Zeolite2 XD, flown with great success by our pilots Damien Lacaze, Maxime Pinot, Pal Takats and Michal Gierlach in the this year's X-Alps race. The development process pulled technology from both the Photon and the race wing. The initial Zeolite GT was a big success and this new iteration offers significantly improved performance in accelerated flight, improved agility and handling, whilst keeping the same low weight. | Size | XS | S | MS | ML | L | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Number of cells | 71 | 71 | 71 | 71 | 71 | | Projected area (m²) | 15.9 | 17.2 | 18.5 | 19.8 | 21.1 | | Flat Area (m²) | 18.9 | 20.4 | 22 | 23.5 | 25.1 | | Projected Span (m) | 8.9 | 9.3 | 9.6 | 9.9 | 10.3 | | Flat Span (m) | 11.3 | 11.8 | 12.2 | 12.6 | 13.1 | | Projected Aspect Ratio | 5 | 5 | 5 | 5 | 5 | | Flat Aspect Ratio | 6.8 | 6.8 | 6.8 | 6.8 | 6.8 | | Root Chord (m) | 2.09 | 2.17 | 2.26 | 2.33 | 2.41 | | Glider Weight (kg) | 3.56 | 3.75 | 3.91 | 4.19 | — | | In-flight Weight Range (kg) | 60-75 | 65-85 | 80-95 | 90-105 | 100-115 | | EN Rating | D | D | — | — | — | --- ## Ozone LM7 Paraglider {#ozone-lm7} *Price: $6,000.00* Lightweight 3-line EN D XC machine for advanced pilots flying 100+ hours per year who want near-Zeno performance with more comfort than a 2-liner. ### The Lightweight High Performance 3-Liner: With ZENO & ENZO 3 Technology The LM7 is a lightweight XC machine incorporating the latest high-performance features from our competition range. It is a light, tight, and compact 3-line package. The profile, planform, and arc are all evolved from the Zeno, with a more moderate 6.5 AR. The LM7 offers a level of agility, comfort and safety closer to the Delta series, with near-Zeno glide performance. Most importantly, it is an incredibly fun wing to fly! At 650 grams lighter than the M7, it is nicer to carry, packs smaller, and benefits from a lighter sail. The significant weight reduction not only improves the inflation characteristics, but also livens up the feedback and improves the agility and behaviour of the wing in active air. The LM7 is a significant step up from its predecessor in terms of performance, especially in accelerated flight, but with better collapse recovery characteristics, reduced pilot workload, and more cohesion in turbulent air. It is the ideal wing for experienced pilots stepping up to the D class who want the performance and pleasure of a modern 2-liner, but with more comfort, security, and confidence. #### Technology The Zeno-inspired profile, with A-line attachments set relatively far back from the leading edge, creates a strong & collapse-resistant nose. You can push hard through turbulence and gain lift in each gust. The Internal structure is optimised for weight and cohesion. The wing absorbs turbulence without chord or spanwise deformation, meaning that the handling can be exploited at all times, even in the strongest, roughest thermals. The cohesion of the sail, coupled with this solidity, is confidence inspiring. It reduces the demands on the pilot allowing you to use the full XC potential of the day. A new riser control system allows full control in accelerated flight. Acting on both the B and C risers, this innovative system offers direct, efficient angle of attack control without deforming the profile. The intuitive feel and feedback from the risers allows the pilot to maintain the solidity of the wing while accelerated in turbulent air. #### The Class The LM7 is certified EN D and aimed at EN D level pilots, even if the certification grade is mainly due to the use of collapse lines. The level of comfort and security is closer to the class below! Collapse lines were used because we were totally unwilling to weaken the structure of the wing just to achieve a lower EN grade. True Performance in real conditions remains our first priority. Extensive collapse testing has shown excellent recovery behaviour – better than the LM6, with less tendency to cravat. #### The Pilot The LM7 is a light version of the M7. It is for advanced pilots who are progressing to the highest levels of XC flying and prefer a lightweight wing. It is ideal for competent pilots stepping up from a lower grade, or those wishing for easier, more benign behaviour than a 2-liner without sacrificing performance. It's recommended for experienced pilots who fly at least 100 hrs per year, with recent SIV training. The LM7 (like the M7) is undoubtedly the best 3-line wing we have ever produced. After an extended period of testing in very strong conditions we are pleased with the end result. It is a powerful wing with True Performance at its heart; an accessible feel, agile handling, and high levels of security. #### SPECIFICATIONS | Size | XS | S | MS | ML | L | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Number of cells | 78 | 78 | 78 | 78 | 78 | | Projected area (m²) | 16.2 | 17.6 | 19 | 20.4 | 21.6 | | Flat Area (m²) | 19.3 | 20.9 | 22.6 | 24.2 | 25.7 | | Projected Span (m) | 8.8 | 9.1 | 9.5 | 9.8 | 10.1 | | Flat Span (m) | 11.2 | 11.6 | 12.1 | 12.5 | 12.9 | | Projected Aspect Ratio | 4.7 | 4.7 | 4.7 | 4.7 | 4.7 | | Flat Aspect Ratio | 6.5 | 6.5 | 6.5 | 6.5 | 6.5 | | Root Chord (m) | 2.17 | 2.27 | 2.35 | 2.44 | 2.51 | | Glider Weight (kg) | 4.00 | 4.26 | 4.50 | 4.73 | 4.96 | | In-flight Weight Range (kg) | 60-75 | 70-85 | 80-95 | 90-105 | 100-115 | | EN / LTF | D | D | D | D | D | #### MATERIALS - Top Surface Cloth: Dominico N20D / Porcher 7000 E71 - Bottom Surface Cloth: Porcher 7000 E71 - Rib cloth: Porcher 9017E29 - Upper lines: Edelrid 8000U serie - Mid lines: Edelrid 8000U serie - Lower lines: Edelrid 8000U serie --- ## Ozone XXLite 2 Paraglider {#ozone-xxlite-2} *Price: $3,200.00* Single-surface ultra-lightweight mountain wing for serious hike & fly pilots and alpinists, the ultimate hike-and-fly wing. The XXLite 2 is a single-surface ultra-lightweight mountain wing designed for serious Hike & Fly pilots and alpinists. This all-new wing delivers significantly improved performance and handling with a higher trim speed and easier landing, compared to its predecessor. ### LEGACY The first of its kind in 2012, the XXLite was one of the most unique and innovative paragliders to ever be put into production. The XXLite series still offers the lightest aircraft in existence when combined with the OZONE F*Lite. ### NEXT GENERATION TECHNOLOGY The XXLite 2 features a unique full span leading edge ram-air inflated tube. This provides a solid leading edge, which accepts lower angles of attack, yielding a higher trim speed and further acceleration. Now comparable with a dual-surface wing, the new speed range widens the safe flyable window and improves performance in real conditions. ### LAUNCH & LANDING The inflation characteristics are still ridiculously easy. The wing feels light and easy to raise overhead – even without touching the risers. The take-off speed is low, allowing you to leave the ground with just a few steps. Most significantly, the landing is vastly improved. The new flare performance allows soft, controlled landings, even in zero wind conditions. ### IN ACTIVE AIR Far more comfortable and confidence-inspiring than the original, it absorbs turbulence in a more controlled manner. The XXLite 2 offers excellent passive safety and is designed for pilots of intermediate ability. It exhibits docile behaviour in test maneuvers. Read about its EN certification here. Available in sizes 16m and 18m and weighing in at just 1.3 kg (16m size) with a minuscule packing volume, the XXLite 2 is the ultimate hike and fly wing. ### SPECIFICATIONS | Size | 16 | 18 | | --- | --- | --- | | Number of panels | 39 | 39 | | Projected area (m²) | 13.9 | 15.6 | | Flat Area (m²) | 16 | 18 | | Projected Span (m) | 8.0 | 8.5 | | Flat Span (m) | 9.5 | 10.1 | | Projected Aspect Ratio | 4.6 | 4.6 | | Flat Aspect Ratio | 5.6 | 5.6 | | Root Chord (m) | 2.0 | 2.1 | | Glider Weight (kg) | 1.37 | | In-flight Weight Range (kg) | 55-90 | 67-105 | | EN | D | *** Weights may vary up to 50gm per size due to slight variations in the manufacturing of the fabric used.** ### WHY? THE XXLITE EN CLASSIFICATION How does a glider with mostly EN A results end up being classified as EN D? The answer stems from a strange political battle that arose after OZONE introduced collapse lines on modern wings such as the popular Delta series, which were opposed by competing companies who had not yet tested this technology. Instead of investigating this new method of glider development, some of our competitors lobbied to "ban" the use of collapse lines. The end result was that any wing using collapse lines to affect the required EN folding methods was given a D rating, even if all tests exhibited EN A behavior. The XXLite uses a combined A/B line attachment point on the chord. Due to this, it is impossible to pull the correctly sized EN folds (collapses) without collapse lines. With collapse lines the tests are completed properly and the reopening of the collapse occurs in less than one second (EN A result). Importantly, it must be noted that EN certification does not measure how a collapse is made. **It only measures the wing's recovery from collapse.** Many single-skin wings require additional (non-flying) collapse lines to properly execute the EN tests. These testing lines automatically register the wing as EN D even if the resulting recovery from the collapse is "A". Although other test houses appear to have ignored this rule (automatic EN D with use of collapse lines) and were given an overall result below D, we have no intention to mislead pilots, and trust that our customers will understand the flawed test regulations. **The mild character and excellent passive safety of the XXLite can only be understood by reading our description of the wing, not by looking at a misleading EN D classification.** --- ## Ozone Zeno 2 Paraglider {#ozone-zeno-2} *Price: $7,200.00* Top-of-class EN D 2-liner for highly experienced XC pilots flying 100+ hours/year who want XC-record and competition-level performance. ## The Character Our primary goal was preserving the Zeno's legendary comfort and ease of use. The Zeno 2 retains the same cell count and AR in order to achieve this, in addition to more passive safety — improved response to front and side collapse. ## Performance The Zeno 2 profile's new tech includes increased CM+ (reflex) and more rearward cell openings. This new aerofoil delivers significantly higher top speed, better glide, and higher efficiency throughout the speed range. With a slightly faster trim speed and significantly faster top speed compared to the Zeno, it now matches the Enzo 3 in top speed and glide. The top speed is fast, significantly faster than the Zeno (we have measured +7 km) and only necessary in a competitive final glide. ## Key Features - Same comfort & ease of use - Enzo 3 level speed and glide - All new profile with increased CM+ (reflex) - New opening position, with G-strings - New trailing edge reinforcement - New low-drag line material and risers ## The Feel Overall, the Zeno 2 offers a little more feedback compared to the Zeno, but always in an intelligible way. It remains comfortable and confidence-inspiring for pilots of the category. The heightened sensation makes it easier to sniff out cores, follow good energy lines, and feel the air. An optimised internal structure gives an impressive feeling of cohesion when climbing in thermic turbulence. A benefit of the covid delay is that it gave us time to fine tune the handling exactly to our liking — the turn response is precise and dynamic, with higher levels of agility than the Zeno. ## Launch The improved behaviour and cohesion of the sail is noticeable on the ground, with impeccable launching characteristics. The Zeno 2 inflates easily from any position on the ground even in nil wind conditions. Perhaps with the exception of the Zeolite, the Zeno 2 is the easiest 2-liner to launch. ## The Pilot The Zeno 2 is designed specifically for highly experienced XC pilots who fly at least 100 hrs a year and have a solid SIV background, and who need XC record hunting / competition-level performance. ## Materials - Top Surface Cloth: Dominico 30D / Porcher 7000 E71 - Bottom Surface Cloth: Porcher 7000 E71 - Rib cloth: Porcher 9017 E29 (hard) / Porcher 7000 E29 (hard) - Upper lines: Edelrid 8001 / 9200-030 - Mid lines: Edelrid 8001 - Lower Lines: Edelrid 8001 ## Specifications | Size | S | MS | ML | L | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Number of cells | 78 | 78 | 78 | 78 | | Projected area (m²) | 17.7 | 18.9 | 20.3 | 22.2 | | Flat Area (m²) | 21 | 22.5 | 24.1 | 26.5 | | Projected Span (m) | 9.5 | 9.8 | 10.2 | 10.7 | | Flat Span (m) | 12 | 12.5 | 12.9 | 13.5 | | Projected Aspect Ratio | 5.1 | 5.1 | 5.1 | 5.1 | | Flat Aspect Ratio | 6.9 | 6.9 | 6.9 | 6.9 | | Root Chord (m) | 2.19 | 2.26 | 2.3 | 2.46 | | Glider Weight (kg) | 4.7 | 4.92 | 5.22 | 5.62 | | In-flight Weight Range (kg) | 75-90 | 85-100 | 95-110 | 105-125 | | EN | D | D | D | D* | * Pending certification for L size * Weights may vary up to 50gm per size due to slight variations in the manufacturing of the fabric used. --- ## Ozone Dragonfly Speedwing {#ozone-dragonfly} *Price: $2,800.00* Stable and versatile hybrid speedwing for pilots of all skill levels — perfect to launch a speedflying career or carve mountain descents. ### Maximum Stability & Fun The DragonFly is a stable and versatile hybrid speed wing, designed for pilots of all skill levels. It is the perfect wing to launch your speed flying career, and is equally at home soaring a dynamic coastal cliff or carving a mountain descent. Building on the legacy of the Firefly series, the DragonFly is founded on a simple principle: Maximum stability, with great efficiency for its class. A totally new profile has yielded improvements throughout. #### The Launch The DragonFly launch is light and immediate in no wind conditions, and forgiving in high wind. Thanks to re-positioned cell openings and the new profile, it is even better suited to speed flying instruction and beginner use. #### Handling More dynamic, yet roll stable and forgiving, it has a direct and predictable feel in the brakes. The roll rate feels responsive, but is never surprising. The DragonFly's high level of passive safety is not only found in collapse resistance, but also in the fun yet forgiving handling. #### Glide Performance & Trim Range Thanks to an increased trim range, the DragonFly's glide performance is greater than the FireFly, and it also has a higher top speed. It all adds up to the ability to fly in a wider range of conditions and sites! Reach more distant LZs, and fly in more wind, comfortably. #### The Pilot This is a wing for pilots of all skill levels who want a solid, stable, all around wing – the DragonFly is a reliable partner for your first speed flights and for larger pilots. Available in two sizes, 16m and 18m, the weight range goes up to 120 kg. ### SPECIFICATIONS | Size | 14 | 16 | 18 | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Number of cells | 27 | 27 | 27 | | Projected area (m²) | 12.5 | 14.23 | 16.31 | | Flat Area (m²) | 14 | 15.98 | 18.32 | | Projected Span (m) | 6.2 | 6.62 | 7.09 | | Flat Span (m) | 7.36 | 7.86 | 8.42 | | Projected Aspect Ratio | 3.1 | 3.1 | 3.1 | | Flat Aspect Ratio | 3.87 | 3.87 | 3.87 | | Root Chord (m) | 2.29 | 2.44 | 2.61 | | Glider Weight (kg) | | 3 | 3.3 | | In-flight Weight Range (kg) | 50-105 | 50-120 | 50-120 | * Weights may vary up to 50gm per size due to slight variations in the manufacturing of the fabric used. --- ## Ozone Rapido 3X Speedwing {#ozone-rapido-3x} *Price: $3,200.00* Ultralight uncompromising speedwing for intermediate-to-advanced speedriders and foot-launch pilots seeking high performance and low pack-weight. An ultralight evolution of the Rapido series for experienced speed pilots. The new Rapido 3X (R3X) is an uncompromising speedwing created for intermediate-to-advanced level pilots seeking high performance and low pack-weight. It is an evolution of the Rapido 3, with increased roll sensitivity, reduced weight, and more precise riser controls. The significantly shorter line length and wider piloting stance serve speedriders as well as foot-launch pilots seeking a more capable wing for both summer and winter flying. ### Materials & Design The R3X combines ultralight Skytex 27g fabric with lightweight risers and soft-link attachments to maximize glider sensitivity and reduce sail inertia. New toggles with optional ball-grabs improve comfort and brake precision, and a redesigned B/C bridge provides frictionless trim manipulation and enhanced riser-piloting accuracy. ### Hike & Fly The R3X is noticeably lighter, with a lower pack volume for long ascents. No-wind inflations are immediate and simple, and widened pulley attachments allow a more natural running stance when navigating technical launches. ### On Snow The R3X's significantly shortened line-set facilitates sharp, precise speedriding turns and the reduced sail inertia makes for a more responsive canopy. These improvements have led to the best connection between wing and skis that we have ever experienced. The wide piloting stance is ideal for active skiing, and the addition of ball-grabs to the redesigned toggles allow for comfortable piloting, even in winter gloves. ### The Pilot The R3X is recommended for pilots with intermediate-to-advanced-level prior Speedflying experience. Its weight-shift sensitivity, light risers & sail, and accelerated inflation characteristics are all designed with experienced speedflyers in mind. Speedriders should consider the R3X after a minimum of 2 seasons of experience. The R3X provides optimal ski-performance with trims released by ⅓ or more, so pilots should be comfortable maintaining snow contact at higher speeds prior to speedriding this sensitive wing. ### SPECIFICATIONS | Size | 5.9 | 6.5 | 8 | 9 | 11 | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Number of cells | 27 | 27 | 27 | 27 | 27 | | Projected area (m²) | 5.2 | 5.4 | 7 | 7.9 | 9.6 | | Flat Area (m²) | 5.9 | 6.4 | 7.9 | 8.9 | 10.9 | | Projected Span (m) | 3.97 | 4.14 | 4.59 | 4.87 | 5.39 | | Flat Span (m) | 4.75 | 4.96 | 5.5 | 5.84 | 6.46 | | Projected Aspect Ratio | 3 | 3 | 3 | 3 | 3 | | Flat Aspect Ratio | 3.8 | 3.8 | 3.8 | 3.8 | 3.8 | | Root Chord (m) | 1.51 | 1.57 | 1.75 | 1.85 | 2.05 | | Glider Weight (kg) | 1.31 | 1.35 | 1.52 | 1.6 | 1.82 | | In-flight Weight Range (kg) | 50-95 | 50-95 | 50-95 | 50-95 | 50-95 | * Weights may vary up to 50gm per size due to slight variations in the manufacturing of the fabric used. --- ## Ozone ARC Speedwing {#ozone-arc} *Price: $2,700.00* Winter-optimized speedriding wing built for aggressively skiing steep mountains, with deep-brake power for active skiing and rapid take-flight capability. ### STEEP AND STABLE BIG MOUNTAIN WING The Arc has been optimized for winter Speedriding in every step of its design - empowering pilots to aggressively ski even the steepest of mountains, while remaining intimately connected to their wing. The Arc's shortened line-lengths, extensive trim-range, and deep-brake power all allow active skiing, while maintaining the ability to rapidly take-flight at a moment's notice. ### ON SNOW The Arc's brake range is very long, longer than almost any speedwing we have flown. Its deep brake behavior allows you to make powerful inputs without stalling or over-controlling the wing. This same characteristic makes rapid launches and re-landings easy on steep lines, and makes freestyle maneuvers such as riding switch and ski-grabs accessible earlier in a pilot's skill progression. ### FOOT-LAUNCH FLIGHTS Although designed with the Speedrider in mind, the Arc's significant trims-in launch capability make it a fun, safe, and stable wing for foot-launched speed flying. Many pilots prefer the feel of both the lighter weight fabric and risers, as well as the shorter line-lengths for intermediate-to-advanced level classic speedflying. ### TRIM RANGE & GLIDE The Arc has the longest trim-range of any of Ozone Speedwing. With trims fully released, its glide is very steep. Because the trim range is so extensive, it ships with the final 3cm of trim-range stitched closed. It is up to the pilot to cut the stitching to access the full trim range. With trims pulled in, the Arc's max glide is impressive for a ski-specific wing - it is comparable to the Dragonfly series. ### MATERIALS & DESIGN A lighter system means lower sail inertia which means better behavior when navigating technical terrain at low speed with the wing unloaded due to the pilot riding on the surface. Light risers and fabric help the canopy to remain overhead at low airspeeds. Sheathed lines provide durability and a new neoprene brake-handle design is optimized for gloves, with classic snaps rather than magnets. ### SPECIFICATIONS | Size | 6.5 | 8 | 10 | 12 | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Number of cells | 27 | 27 | 27 | 27 | | Projected area (m²) | 5.8 | 7.1 | 8.9 | 10.6 | | Flat Area (m²) | 6.5 | 8 | 10 | 12 | | Projected Span (m) | 4.01 | 4.45 | 4.98 | 5.54 | | Flat Span (m) | 4.77 | 5.29 | 5.92 | 6.48 | | Projected Aspect Ratio | 2.8 | 2.8 | 2.8 | 2.8 | | Flat Aspect Ratio | 3.5 | 3.5 | 3.5 | 3.5 | | Root Chord (m) | 1.64 | 1.82 | 2.03 | 2.23 | | In-flight Weight Range (kg) | 50-95 | 50-95 | 50-97 | 50-97 | --- ## Ozone LiteSpeed 3 Speedwing {#ozone-litespeed-3} *Price: $3,800.00* Lightweight mini-wing combining dynamic handling and efficient design for beginner-intermediate paraglider pilots through experienced speedwing pilots. ### Lightweight, Compact, Fun The new LiteSpeed 3 combines light weight, dynamic handling, and an efficient design into an agile wing with low pack-volume.

This is the perfect wing for intermediate speed pilots who want to progress their flying to the next level (which is, of course, the Rapido Series of wings). ## The Possibilities Are endless… the Fazer 4 is designed to fly equally well in foot or ski-launch situations, but with an emphasis on foot-launched flight. Its wide trim range makes it easy to launch at a wide variety of sites and conditions, from flat to steep, and alpine to windy. ## The Tech For any wing, aspect ratio is a design factor that cannot be cheated. It might not be the soul of the wing, but it's definitely the body. The Fazer 4 retains the same cell count and aspect ratio of its predecessor, for a stable and compact feel in flight. The profile is reinforced across the entire span for easy inflation and performance at speed. It is equally comfortable on cliff launches and shallow hills. ## In Flight Dynamic handling, snappy barrel rolls, and overall excellent stability has made the Fazer series well trusted over the past 10 years. Now, the brake range is even longer, with improved flare and a more progressive carving turn. The sail feels tight and compact and is confidence inspiring when carving terrain. ## SPECIFICATIONS | Size | 8 | 10 | 12 | 14 | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | No. of Cells | 21 | 21 | 21 | 21 | | Projected Area (m²) | 7.14 | 8.56 | 10.22 | 11.92 | | Flat Area (m²) | 8 | 9.8 | 11.66 | 13.57 | | Projected Span (m) | 4.35 | 4.77 | 5.21 | 5.63 | | Flat Span (m) | 5 | 5.5 | 6 | 6.5 | | Projected Aspect Ratio | 2.66 | 2.66 | 2.66 | 2.66 | | Flat Aspect Ratio | 3.18 | 3.18 | 3.18 | 3.18 | | Root Chord | 1.86 | 2.04 | 2.23 | 2.41 | | Glider Weight (kg) | 2.1 | 2.3 | 2.7 | 3.1 | --- ## Ozone Mojo PWR 2 Paramotor Wing {#ozone-mojo-pwr-2} *Price: $4,000.00* Versatile EN A crossover wing for students, newly qualified pilots, and anyone wanting a single wing for both powered and free flight. ### VERSATILITY FOR BOTH FREE-FLIGHT AND PPG USE The Mojo PWR 2 is a truly versatile wing, ideal for those looking for a one-wing solution for both powered and free flight. The all new design features many optimisations and updates: reduced sail drag, reinforced and optimised line layout, reduced line consumption, newly-shaped wing tips for less roll and optimised cell openings for impeccable launching behaviour and improved full speed performance. Internally, the wing has been updated with a new structure and alignment of the rib holes for better structural stability and cohesion. The risers feature trimmers for fast cruising, adjustable pulleys to adjust the brake line lengths depending on your motor setup along with magnetic brake connectors. Special attention has been made to the ground handling and inflation characteristics of the wing to make the whole launching process easier, less stressful and ultimately safer. Setting up is easy; the risers are simple and clean the wing inflates smoothly – without overshooting or hanging back – even in zero wind conditions. In stronger winds it inflates progressively with less tendency to "shoot up" and pull the pilot off their feet. In the air the Mojo PWR 2 is agile, stable and comfortable with a sporty feel. The increased top speed and reduced tendency to oscillate improves the PPG experience when flown heavily loaded under power, and the tight sporty feel through the brakes when in free flight mode makes it ideal for thermalling, ridge soaring and XC flying. In active air the wing is compact and forgiving, it cuts through turbulence efficiently and is very resistant to deflations. It delivers gentle, predictable feedback and filters air movements in an understandable way. At full speed the leading edge remains solid allowing for a large usable speed range and high cruise speeds. Brake pressure and brake precision have been further refined for improved handling – turns are easy to initiate, and the wing maintains bank angles whilst thermalling with minimal input and a sporty dynamic feel. The balance of performance, safety and strength is an important consideration for any new pilot, and the Mojo PWR 2 combines EN A* rating with solidity, agility, low sink rate, and excellent glide performance that is necessary for short take off and low fuel consumption during long XC flights. The Mojo PWR 2 is a versatile crossover wing which excels in both free flying and powered flight. It is suitable for students in all levels of training and also for the newly qualified who require an easy, safe and solid wing for their first 100s hours of paramotor experience as well as paragliding ridge soaring, thermalling and XC flying. **This wing has passed the criteria required by the DGAC and has been load tested to the EN 926.1 standard. In addition to our own extensive testing, it has also been independently flight tested to the EN 926.2 standard with the trimmers set to the slow position. Releasing the trimmers, or flying outside of the EN certified weight range invalidates any EN flight certification. As delivered, the wing does not conform to the EN 926.2 standard due to the inclusion of the trimmer risers.* #### SPECIFICATIONS | Size | 22 | 24 | 26 | 28 | 30 | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Number of cells | 40 | 40 | 40 | 40 | 40 | | Projected area (m²) | 18.7 | 20.3 | 22.1 | 24 | 26.1 | | Flat Area (m²) | 22 | 23.9 | 26 | 28.3 | 30.7 | | Projected Span (m) | 8.05 | 8.39 | 8.75 | 9.12 | 9.51 | | Flat Span (m) | 10.39 | 10.83 | 11.29 | 11.77 | 12.27 | | Projected Aspect Ratio | 3.46 | 3.46 | 3.46 | 3.46 | 3.46 | | Flat Aspect Ratio | 4.9 | 4.9 | 4.9 | 4.9 | 4.9 | | Root Chord (m) | 2.72 | 2.83 | 2.95 | 3.08 | 3.21 | | Glider Weight (kg) | 4.45 | 4.66 | 4.97 | 5.28 | 5.6 | | PG (EN) Weight Range (kg) | 55-70 | 65-85 | 80-100 | 95-115 | 110-130 | | PPG Weight Range (kg) | 55-90 | 65-110 | 80-130 | 95-150 | 110-165 | | Certification EN* | — | A* | A* | A* | — | | DGAC | DGAC | DGAC | DGAC | DGAC | DGAC | **tested to the EN 926.2 standard with the trimmers locked and within PG weight range.* ** Weights may vary up to 50gm per size due to slight variations in the manufacturing of the fabric used.* #### MATERIALS - Top Surface Cloth: Dominico 30D - Bottom Surface Cloth: Porcher 9018 E65 - Rib cloth: Porcher 9017 E29 (hard) - Upper lines: Liros DSL serie - Mid lines: Liros DSL serie - Lower Lines: Edelrid 10-200_6843 --- ## Ozone Spyder 4 Paramotor Wing {#ozone-spyder-4} *Price: $4,650.00* Lightweight version of the Roadster 4 paramotor wing for pilots wanting faster inflation, agile handling, and enhanced passive safety from a light-fabric build. The Spyder 4 is the lightweight version of the Roadster 4. It uses a carefully selected blend of lightweight fabrics for the main surfaces and ribs, along with an optimised internal construction, reducing both sail weight and packing volume. Using lightweight fabric in a paramotor wing has positive effects all around, the main advantages are faster inflation for easier launches, improved handling, a more agile and responsive feel, as well as enhanced passive safety thanks to reduced sail inertia. ### NEW FEATURES - A new, more durable type of lightweight fabric - Winglets improve roll stability and spiral stability which translates to higher passive safety and fun. - 3D panel shaping and mini-ribs increase performance and max speed (+3km/h). - A new optimized reflex profile and leading edge openings mean improved inflation, shorter take off distance, and higher fuel efficiency. - Higher arc provides better roll response and more precision in turns. - Rollercam trimmers with sublimation printed trim setting marks operate more smoothly and with less effort. ### THE PILOT The Spyder 4, like the RD4 is suitable for a wide range of pilots, from newly qualified to more experienced. New pilots will appreciate its extremely easy launching characteristics, especially in nil wind. Its improved performance helps shorten takeoff distance and reduces power demands. Whether you are a beginner or more experienced, you will enjoy the agile handling, comfort and high passive safety. The Spyder 4 is rock solid in the air and now more stable in roll thanks to the addition of winglets, making it a confident and enjoyable wing for all pilots. ### THE TECH The Spyder 4 features winglets, known to reduce parasitic roll and improve spiral characteristics. The new arc provides better roll response in turns for more direct and precise handling, whilst also calming the wing's behavior during side collapses. 3D panel shaping and mini ribs contribute to higher top speed and overall performance improvements. The Spyder 4 retains the same beginner-friendly, simple, and uncluttered risers, now with a new and improved trimmer system. The roller cam mechanism prevents jamming or slippage, and the sublimation-printed webbing is both durable and clean. The system is easy to use, precise, and resistant to wear over time. When choosing materials for the Spyder 4, we focused on lightweight design and durability. The wing uses a new type of fabric: the upper surface is made from Dominico 32g with a PU and silicone coating which is both light and durable for improved longevity. For the lower surface, which is less exposed, we selected the lightest fabric available - Porcher Skytex 27g. The internal structure combines Dominico 32g and Porcher Skytex 40g, using the strongest materials in critical load-bearing ribs whilst keeping weight to a minimum on the lower loaded ribs. Finally, maillons have been replaced with LinkLite connectors, significantly reducing weight without compromising stability or strength. ### CERTIFICATION The Spyder 4 has been load-tested to 8 g in accordance with the EN 926-1 standard and is recognized by the DGAC. Based on the Roadster 4, it has undergone extensive in-house testing to ensure performance consistent with EN-B standards. ### IN FLIGHT The Spyder 4 is easier and more comfortable to fly than its predecessor, the improved inflation and short takeoffs are noticeable from the very first flight. It is more agile and fun to fly and the improved performance is requires less engine power and offers higher efficiency so is more than capable of free flying without power. The Spyder 4 is a true adventure wing that makes you feel at home no matter what you want to do, from daily fun flights and cruising around to big mountain or long-distance adventures. ### SPECIFICATIONS | Size | 20 | 22 | 24 | 26 | 28 | 30 | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Number of cells | 48 | 48 | 48 | 48 | 48 | 48 | | Projected area (m²) | 16.8 | 18.5 | 20.2 | 21.8 | 23.5 | 25.2 | | Flat Area (m²) | 20 | 22 | 24 | 26 | 28 | 30 | | Projected Span (m) | 7.72 | 8.1 | 8.46 | 8.8 | 9.13 | 9.46 | | Flat Span (m) | 10.01 | 10.59 | 11.07 | 11.52 | 11.95 | 12.37 | | Projected Aspect Ratio | 3.55 | 3.55 | 3.55 | 3.55 | 3.55 | 3.55 | | Flat Aspect Ratio | 5.1 | 5.1 | 5.1 | 5.1 | 5.1 | 5.1 | | Root Chord (m) | 2.54 | 2.67 | 2.79 | 2.9 | 3.0 | 3.12 | | Glider Weight (kg) | 4.03 | 4.26 | 4.5 | 4.75 | 5.0 | 5.25 | | PG Weight Range (kg) | 55-70 | 55-80 | 65-85 | 80-100 | 95-120 | 110-140 | | PPG (DGAC) Weight Range (kg) | 55-100 | 55-105 | 65-120 | 80-140 | 95-160 | 110-179 | | DGAC | DGAC | DGAC | DGAC | DGAC | DGAC | DGAC | * Weights may vary up to 50gm per size due to slight variations in the manufacturing of the fabric used. ### MATERIALS - Top Surface Cloth: Dominico 20D_32_PS - Bottom Surface Cloth: Porcher 7000 E71 - Rib cloth: Dominico 20D_32_FM - Upper lines: Liros DSL70 - Mid lines: Liros DSL70/140 - Lower Lines: Edelrid 6843-200/160 --- ## Ozone Sirocco 3 Paramotor Wing {#ozone-sirocco-3} *Price: $4,850.00* Lightweight version of the Speedster paramotor wing for intermediate-to-advanced PPG pilots wanting improved performance, agility, and speed for long-distance XC, slalom, and travel. The Sirocco is the light version of the Speedster but offering improved levels of performance, agility and speed in a lightweight, compact package. Designed predominantly for long distance PPG XC flights for intermediate to advanced level pilots, it is a fun, dynamic and versatile wing that is also perfect for low level carving, slalom flying and as a lightweight travel companion. The design incorporates a fully reflexed profile along with the latest technologies taken from our high performance paragliding range, the development of which is guided by feedback from paramotor pilots all over the world and tested by the world's best. Although specifically designed for PPG, due to the high levels of efficiency and excellent handling characteristics the Sirocco can also be used for free flying – ideal for ridge soaring, thermalling even XC flights. ### The Pilot The Sirocco is designed for intermediate and advanced level pilots alike. However due to its easy launch and flying characteristics it is also suitable for intermediate pilots progressing from lower level wings, such as the Roadster or Kona, along with more experienced pilots who do not want the extra demands of a higher aspect ratio competition level wing. ### Speed and Stability The core elements of an effective Paramotoring wing are speed and stability. The Sirocco is fast, but more importantly, solid throughout the speed range. The large trim range allows high speed cruising without the need to engage the accelerator system. At full speed the Sirocco remains very resistant to collapses, even in turbulent air and is easy to maintain thanks to the super smooth action of the risers that does not deform the profile. The risers are simple and easy to use, the full foot-operated accelerator range is always accessible irrespective of the trimmer position. Unlike some other PPG wings, it is safe and possible to use the full range of the speed system even with the trimmers in the standard (slow) position without reducing the inherent stability of the profile. The carefully designed and tested OZRP reflex profile is not only solid and fast but also forgiving. As the amount of reflex increases in a profile, certain other parameters can suffer: namely, ease of launch, quality of handling, fuel efficiency, and passive safety. These categories, for us, are extremely important and not to be compromised, we always strive to implement intelligent combinations of stable profiles and complex internal structures to improve the development of the Sirocco range. ### Efficiency Compared to the Speedster the Sirocco offers improved sink rate and glide performance along with a higher top speed for higher levels of XC efficiency. Thanks to the lighter sail, the agility, precision and handling have been improved, with a more precise, fun and dynamic feel. Another benefit of the lighter sail is easier ground handling and inflation characteristics for faster take offs requiring less distance. ### Agility At Ozone handling is a top priority in every wing we design. From our most basic school wing to the highest performing competition wings, we always aim to make wings that are a pleasure to fly. The Sirocco's agile and responsive handling is a result of hundreds of hours of testing and refinement from an experienced design team and some of the World's best pilots. The Sirocco 3 is agile and fun, handling like a paragliding wing rather than a normal reflexed PPG wing. The Sirocco 3 is available to order in two steering system options, with either the standard TST or the 2D systems pre-installed by the factory. Both options are delivered with each wing so can be easily changed depending on your preference or type of flying. The character of the Sirocco 3 is determined by the wing loading, but can be transformed by the steering system. The standard TST brake set up is perfect for normal XC flying, whilst the 2D system improves the responsiveness, control and agility of the wing, perfect for low level carving or fun slalom racing. The options allow flexibility, choose the character of the wing to match your intended flight style. ### Launching The inflation and ground handling behaviour is extremely important for a fun safe flight. The light cloth and lower sail weight makes handling on the ground easier and improves the inflation characteristics. Extra attention is placed on the launch characteristics of the Sirocco 3 so that it inflates evenly and with little effort in nil wind conditions, whilst inflating steadily, without over-shooting, in strong wind conditions. ### Legacy The Sirocco was Ozone's first lightweight PPG wing and now with over twenty years of lightweight R&D are able to deliver a wing that is not only top of class in terms of performance, but one of the lightest wings in its class. The continual development of the Sirocco model range is an important mission for us, our aim is to always improve the concept to make it better, safer and more fun to fly whilst keeping weight down to a minimum. After a long development process we are now happy with the changes that have been made, our testing proves the new wing is a real pleasure to fly, with a surprisingly high top speed and a general ease of use that will appeal to discerning Paramotor pilots. ### Structure The Sirocco 3 combines the well proven design elements of the Sirocco 2, Freeride slalom and our high performance paraglider range with the latest lightweight construction techniques: The arc, planform, aspect ratio, tab positioning, profile and intake positions are very similar to the Sirocco 2 but blended with the internal structure and line rigging of the Freeride. Additional top surface straps have been implemented to increase the overall tension of the sail which is spread more homogenously along the span to improve the cohesion and feel of the wing. ### Fast and efficient 3D shaping in the leading edge reduces drag and increases the amount of lift generated. With two extra cells and a cleaner leasing edge, combined with the reduced amount of line drag, optimised profile and longer range trimmers, the Sirocco 3 is the most efficient Sirocco yet and even compared to the Speedster 3 offers improved sink rate and glide performance along with a higher top speed. Ideal for long XC flights, classic competitions and fun slalom races. ### Stable and safe The optimised OZRP Reflex profile accepts large amounts of turbulence without collapse throughout the speed range so is well suited for flying in thermic conditions. Load tested to the EN 926-1 standard and acknowledged by the DGAC, our extensive internal testing has shown the Sirocco 3 to exhibit very similar behaviour to the previous models and conforms to the requirements of EN C (trimmers set in the slow position). *Note the Sirocco 3 has not been independently EN 926-2 flight tested.* ### Choose your style The character of the Sirocco 3 is determined by wing loading and the choice of steering system. Centred in the weight range with the TST set up, the wing is an efficient climber perfect for normal XC flying. The 2D system improves the responsiveness, control and agility of the wing. Flying a smaller size at the top of the range transforms the character completely into a dynamic and agile wing with high levels of precision, perfect for low level carving or fun slalom racing. ### Differences compared to the Sirocco 2: - 3D shaping leading edge - Extra cells and better sink rate performance - More performance = better fuel efficiency - Higher top speed - More speed range in the trimmers - More precise and dynamic handling - TST or 2D systems pre-installed by the factory, choose your style. ### Versatility, agility and fun The Sirocco 3 is our most versatile PPG wing yet, suitable for a wide range of pilots and flying styles. A great all-rounder, fantastic for both XC flying and traditional competitions whilst being highly capable for aggressive low level carving and slalom racing. Choose your style. ### Specifications | Size | 18 | 20 | 22 | 24 | 26 | 28 | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Number of cells | 56 | 56 | 56 | 56 | 56 | 56 | | Projected area (m²) | 15.5 | 17.2 | 18.9 | 20.6 | 22.3 | 24.0 | | Flat Area (m²) | 18 | 20 | 22 | 24 | 26 | 28 | | Projected Span (m) | 7.9 | 8.3 | 8.71 | 9.09 | 9.47 | 9.82 | | Flat Span (m) | 10.03 | 10.57 | 11.08 | 11.58 | 12.05 | 12.51 | | Projected Aspect Ratio | 4.02 | 4.02 | 4.02 | 4.02 | 4.02 | 4.02 | | Flat Aspect Ratio | 5.6 | 5.6 | 5.6 | 5.6 | 5.6 | 5.6 | | Root Chord (m) | 2.30 | 2.42 | 2.54 | 2.66 | 2.76 | 2.87 | | Glider Weight (kg) | 3.71 | 3.98 | 4.22 | 4.47 | 4.74 | 4.98 | | PG Weight Range (kg) | 55–70 | 55–75 | 55–90 | 70–95 | 80–110 | 95–125 | | PPG Weight Range (kg) | 55–90 | 55–110 | 55–120 | 70–130 | 80–145 | 95–160 | | DGAC | DGAC | DGAC | DGAC | DGAC | DGAC | DGAC | ** Weights may vary up to 50gm per size due to slight variations in the manufacturing of the fabric used.* ### Materials - Top Surface Cloth: Dominico N20D / Porcher 7000 E71 - Bottom Surface Cloth: Porcher 7000 E71 - Rib cloth: Porcher 9017 E29 (hard) / Porcher 7000 E29 (hard) - Upper lines: Liros DSL70 - Liros DSL70/140 - Lower Lines: Edelrid 7343-280/230/190 --- ## Niviuk Koyot 6 Paraglider {#niviuk-koyot-6} *Price: $3,995.00* Niviuk's EN-A school and first-wing class — predictable, forgiving, and confidence-building for pilots taking their first solo flights.

The Hook 6 sits at the upper end of Niviuk's EN-A range. It is built for pilots who have finished their initial progression on a school wing and want a sharper handling, better-climbing, longer-gliding wing while staying inside EN-A safety. The Hook 6 inherits its construction technology from Niviuk's higher-performance designs — a structured leading edge with Nitinol rods, a clean rib alignment for efficient airflow, and a brake travel tuned for thermalling rather than just landing approaches. Inflation is light and progressive, with very little tendency to overshoot. For pilots flying their first 50–100 hours, the Hook 6 is the wing that grows with you. It will happily turn tight in punchy thermals, sit comfortably in long glides, and accelerate predictably on bar — but always with the recovery characteristics of an EN-A. ### The Pilot The Hook 6 suits pilots between roughly 30 and 150 hours, club pilots who want one wing for many years, and instructors who want a high-end EN-A to recommend after a fleet wing. ### SPECIFICATIONS | Size | 22 | 25 | 28 | 30 | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Number of cells | 41 | 41 | 41 | 41 | | Certified weight range (kg) | 55-75 | 70-95 | 85-110 | 100-130 | | Glider weight (kg) | 4.4 | 4.8 | 5.1 | 5.4 | | EN / LTF | A | A | A | A | ### Materials - Top surface: Skytex 27 / Skytex 32 (Porcher) - Bottom surface: Skytex 27 (Porcher) - Ribs: Skytex 40 hard - Upper lines: Edelrid 8000U series (aramid, sheathed) - Mid lines: Edelrid 8000U series - Lower lines: Liros DC100 / PPSL ### Package Contents Your Niviuk wing ships with an inner storage bag, compression strap, Niviuk repair tape, Niviuk stickers, and the printed owner's manual. --- ## Niviuk Hiko Paraglider {#niviuk-hiko} *Price: $5,200.00* Low-B XC wing for pilots starting their cross-country journey — Hook-style handling with Ikuma-grade performance and modern leading-edge technology. The Hiko is Niviuk's bridge between the EN-A Hook and the mid-B Ikuma. Aimed at pilots who are ready to fly longer flights but still want generous safety margins, it brings advanced construction techniques into a low-B classification. The Hiko uses Niviuk's C2B integrated riser system, Structured Leading Edge with Nitinol rods, 3D leading-edge panel control, RAM air intakes, and the Radial Sliced Diagonal internal structure. The result is a sail that holds its shape cleanly across the speed range, climbs efficiently in weak thermals, and accelerates with stability. Brake pressure is light enough for hours of thermalling without fatigue, and the wing's response to weight-shift is direct without being twitchy. The Hiko is the right wing for the pilot who has just discovered cross-country and wants to commit to it. ### The Pilot The Hiko targets pilots in the 60–200 hour range who are ready for their first 50+ km flights and want a wing they can keep for several seasons. ### SPECIFICATIONS | Size | 20 | 22 | 24 | 26 | 28 | 31 | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Number of cells | 54 | 54 | 54 | 54 | 54 | 54 | | Certified weight range (kg) | 55-70 | 65-85 | 75-95 | 85-105 | 95-115 | 110-130 | | Glider weight (kg) | 4.3 | 4.5 | 4.8 | 5.0 | 5.3 | 5.6 | | EN / LTF | B | B | B | B | B | B | ### Materials - Top surface: Skytex 27 / Skytex 32 (Porcher) - Bottom surface: Skytex 27 (Porcher) - Ribs: Skytex 40 hard - Upper lines: Edelrid 8000U series (aramid, sheathed) - Mid lines: Edelrid 8000U series - Lower lines: Liros DC100 / PPSL ### Package Contents Your Niviuk wing ships with an inner storage bag, compression strap, Niviuk repair tape, Niviuk stickers, and the printed owner's manual. --- ## Niviuk Ikuma 3 Paraglider {#niviuk-ikuma-3} *Price: $5,500.00* High-B XC wing for committed cross-country pilots — strong glide, accessible handling, and the proven Ikuma DNA Niviuk refined over three generations. The Ikuma 3 is the third iteration of Niviuk's high-B cross-country wing — the model the brand uses to define the upper boundary of accessibility. It is built for pilots who have committed to XC flying and want to extract serious performance from an EN-B sail. Compared to the Ikuma 2, the Ikuma 3 improves leading-edge solidity in accelerated flight, refines the line layout for cleaner airflow, and updates the riser ergonomics for long flights. Glide performance at full speed is notably improved, and the wing remains stable on bar in moving air. The Ikuma 3 climbs assertively, glides with the front of the EN-B class, and accelerates with confidence. For pilots ready to leave low-B behind and chase real distance, it is the wing that lets you keep your habits and add performance. ### The Pilot The Ikuma 3 suits pilots with 150+ hours and at least one full XC season behind them — pilots ready to commit to flatlands, bivouac, or comp-style task flying. ### SPECIFICATIONS | Size | 20 | 22 | 24 | 26 | 28 | 30 | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Number of cells | 60 | 60 | 60 | 60 | 60 | 60 | | Certified weight range (kg) | 55-75 | 60-80 | 75-95 | 85-105 | 95-115 | 110-135 | | Glider weight (kg) | 4.2 | 4.4 | 4.7 | 4.9 | 5.2 | 5.5 | | EN / LTF | B | B | B | B | B | B | ### Materials - Top surface: Skytex 27 / Skytex 32 (Porcher) - Bottom surface: Skytex 27 (Porcher) - Ribs: Skytex 40 hard - Upper lines: Edelrid 8000U series (aramid, sheathed) - Mid lines: Edelrid 8000U series - Lower lines: Liros DC100 / PPSL ### Package Contents Your Niviuk wing ships with an inner storage bag, compression strap, Niviuk repair tape, Niviuk stickers, and the printed owner's manual. --- ## Niviuk Artik R 2 Paraglider {#niviuk-artik-r-2} *Price: $6,350.00* EN-C two-liner sport wing — competition-derived 2-line architecture with direct angle-of-attack control for pilots stepping up to serious XC performance. The Artik R 2 is Niviuk's EN-C two-liner — a sport-class wing that brings real competition technology into a serial certification. Two-line architecture means a direct B-riser pitch control and dramatically reduced line drag for accelerated flight that genuinely outperforms three-liner C wings. The Artik R 2 refines its predecessor with an updated leading-edge structure for cleaner inflation, revised internal bracing for span cohesion in strong air, and risers with adjustable B-handles for ergonomic 2-line control. Brake response is direct and short, with high yaw and roll authority for working tight thermals on edge. This is not a beginner C — pilots stepping onto the Artik R 2 should have time on a high-B and a comfortable understanding of accelerated flight and B-line steering. For the right pilot, it is the most rewarding sport wing in the catalog. ### The Pilot The Artik R 2 is for advanced pilots with at least 200 hours, comfortable on accelerated bar, and ready to learn 2-line technique. Strong XC pilots and comp-curious sport pilots are the target. ### SPECIFICATIONS | Size | 17 | 19 | 21 | 23 | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Number of cells | 85 | 85 | 85 | 85 | | Certified weight range (kg) | 60-80 | 75-95 | 85-105 | 95-115 | | Glider weight (kg) | 4.6 | 4.9 | 5.2 | 5.5 | | EN / LTF | C | C | C | C | ### Materials - Top surface: Skytex 27 / Skytex 32 (Porcher) - Bottom surface: Skytex 27 (Porcher) - Ribs: Skytex 40 hard - Upper lines: Edelrid 8000U series (aramid, sheathed) - Mid lines: Edelrid 8000U series - Lower lines: Liros DC100 / PPSL ### Package Contents Your Niviuk wing ships with an inner storage bag, compression strap, Niviuk repair tape, Niviuk stickers, and the printed owner's manual. --- ## Niviuk Peak 6 Paraglider {#niviuk-peak-6} *Price: $7,200.00* EN-D performance wing for experienced XC and competition pilots — Niviuk's top serial-class design with comp-derived glide and accelerated speed. The Peak 6 is Niviuk's flagship serial-class performance wing. EN-D certified across all sizes, it is built for skilled cross-country pilots and comp-class pilots who want the top of the serial range without stepping into open-class CCC equipment. Compared to the Peak 5, the Peak 6 introduces a refined aspect ratio, new internal structure to maintain span cohesion in strong air, updated leading-edge geometry for cleaner inflation, and risers tuned for long competition tasks. Glide performance at full speed approaches CCC territory while remaining inside EN-D certification. The wing demands an active pilot. In return, it delivers exceptional climbing in weak air, very strong glide on bar, and the kind of penetration that makes long task days feel routine. ### The Pilot The Peak 6 is for pilots with 300+ hours, full-season EN-C experience, and comfortable active flying in strong conditions. Top serial pilots and lower-tier competition pilots are the target. ### SPECIFICATIONS | Size | 19 | 21 | 23 | 25 | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Number of cells | 93 | 93 | 93 | 93 | | Certified weight range (kg) | 70-90 | 80-100 | 90-110 | 100-120 | | Glider weight (kg) | 5.3 | 5.6 | 5.9 | 6.2 | | EN / LTF | D | D | D | D | ### Materials - Top surface: Skytex 27 / Skytex 32 (Porcher) - Bottom surface: Skytex 27 (Porcher) - Ribs: Skytex 40 hard - Upper lines: Edelrid 8000U series (aramid, sheathed) - Mid lines: Edelrid 8000U series - Lower lines: Liros DC100 / PPSL ### Package Contents Your Niviuk wing ships with an inner storage bag, compression strap, Niviuk repair tape, Niviuk stickers, and the printed owner's manual. --- ## Niviuk X-ONE Paraglider {#niviuk-x-one} *Price: $7,200.00* CCC open-class competition wing — Niviuk's top design for World Cup and national-team pilots flying at the front of the field. The X-ONE is Niviuk's open-class CCC competition wing — the design the brand campaigns at the World Cup level. It carries the most demanding handling, the most refined airfoil, and the most direct two-line architecture in the Niviuk catalog. Built around an ultra-high aspect 2-liner planform with an extensively reinforced leading edge, the X-ONE is engineered for one job: top performance under task pressure. Glide, top speed, and climb efficiency are all at the front of the CCC class. This is a wing for pilots who already fly comps. Inflation, launch, and recovery technique all assume current task-pilot experience. For the right pilot, it is the wing that turns podium results into a realistic objective. ### The Pilot The X-ONE is for current competition pilots with significant CCC or EN-D time, active task-flying experience, and committed comp-season ambitions. ### SPECIFICATIONS | Size | 19 | 21 | 23 | 25 | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Number of cells | 105 | 105 | 105 | 105 | | Certified weight range (kg) | 70-90 | 80-100 | 90-110 | 100-120 | | Glider weight (kg) | 5.5 | 5.8 | 6.1 | 6.4 | | EN / LTF | CCC | CCC | CCC | CCC | ### Materials - Top surface: Skytex 27 / Skytex 32 (Porcher) - Bottom surface: Skytex 27 (Porcher) - Ribs: Skytex 40 hard - Upper lines: Edelrid 8000U series (aramid, sheathed) - Mid lines: Edelrid 8000U series - Lower lines: Liros DC100 / PPSL ### Package Contents Your Niviuk wing ships with an inner storage bag, compression strap, Niviuk repair tape, Niviuk stickers, and the printed owner's manual. --- ## USHPA P3 Test Study Guide {#ushpa-p3-test-study-guide} ### USHPA P3 Test Study Guide ## USHPA P3 Prerequisites and Operating Limitations ### Prerequisites - P2 or equivalent rating/experience - Minimum of 20 hours of solo air time - Minimum of 30 flying days - Minimum of 90 flights ### Operating Limitations 1.

We offer tandem paragliding 7 days a week from 12pm to sunset. No experience required, no minimum age restrictions, and unlimited flight duration. ### Paragliding vs Parasailing Due to its proximity to SFO, cold waters, and strong winds, there is no parasailing in the SF Bay Area. The nearest parasailing location is [Lake Tahoe](https://tahoesports.com/parasailing/). ### What is Parasailing? Parasailing (also called parascending or parakiting) is a recreational, tourist activity, in which an individual is fitted with a harness attached to a circular canopy which is towed into the air behind a boat or car. Passengers lack directional control while airborne. Originally developed in 1962 by Pierre-Marcel Lemoigne as a parachutist training tool, it later evolved into a tourist activity. It has generated safety concerns and fatalities, drawing scrutiny from the [National Transportation and Safety Board](https://www.ntsb.gov/pages/Results.aspx?k=parasailing).

Its origins date back to World War I when a parachute was first used for reasons other than landing. Volunteer parachutists were towed up behind a submarine at the request of the navy to observe lands in the distance. The 1950s is when paragliding as people know it today really began to take shape. It began with the invention of the Paracommender that had an oblong canopy with vents in the back. The vents allowed some rudimentary steering capability. Domina Jalbert is one of the paragliding pioneers who revolutionized the sport in the 50s and 60s. A native Canadian, he settled in Florida and established a business in researching and understanding aerology. He introduced gliding parachutes that can be easily controlled in 1952. They were much more technically advanced than parachutes of the previous years. After Jalbert's work in the early 50's, people began to see the potential of his discoveries. They began talking about the day when people would be able to fly by running over a cliff or down a steep slope. Francis and Gertrude Rogallo finished off the exciting decade in the world of paragliding by inventing the Rogallo wing, which was originally designed for NASA. The technology came to be used in paragliders and hand gliders. Domina Jalbert's most exciting contributions were made in the 1960s. He filed the "Multi-cell Wing Type Aerial Device" patent in 1963. The technology became imperative in a number of air sports including paragliding, sky diving, and kite surfing. In 1964, he created the Ram Air canopy that achieved a wing shape when filled by air. In 1965, David Barish was working on the Sail Wing that was meant for helping with the recovery of NASA capsules. After first testing it out in Hunter Mountain, New York, he called it "slope soaring" and began promoting it as a summer activity for resorts. David Barish is arguably the most important figure in paragliding history as it is thought that he was the first creator of paragliding as people know it today. NASA coined the term "paraglider" in the 1960s, and the word "paragliding" was first widely used in the 1970s. The British Air Association of Parascending was the first established organization to put the spotlight on paragliding as a sport. In 1978, three French parachutists by the name of Jean-Claude Betemps, Andre Bohn, and Gerard Bosson perfecting the running and launching technique in Meussy, France. In 1979, paragliding was finally recognized as a world-class sport by Gerard Bosson at the hand gliding world championship. A decade later, the first Paragliding World Championship was held in Kossen, Austria. Today, paragliding is a recognized sport thousands of people participate in all across the globe. While the Alps are the most famed paragliding spot in the world, paragliders can be found anywhere in the world. The majority of paragliders reside in Europe, but there are many places to get the most out of the sport in North America. Paragliding in the Bay Area offers some of the most spectacular views and an exhilarating experience. No matter where they live in the world, paragliders continue to carry the sport forward into the future. --- ## Skydiving San Francisco {#skydiving-san-francisco} ### Skydiving San Francisco [Image: Tandem paragliding over San Francisco coastline] Due to the proximity of SFO and air space restrictions there are no Sky Diving Centers in San Francisco. The nearest facility is an hour and a half drive south to Santa Cruz, making a 3-hour round trip. For those unwilling to travel, tandem paragliding offers a comparable alternative. With paragliding you leave the ground with an already open canopy and spend the next 30 to 40 minutes flying free above one of the most gorgeous landscapes on the planet! [Image: Paragliding flight view] ### Paragliding vs. Skydiving | | Paragliding | Skydiving | | --- | --- | --- | | Duration | 30 to 40 minutes with no set time limit | 1 minute free fall followed by 2 minute ride under the parachute. 3 to 4 minutes total. | | Location | Just 10 to 15 minutes from SF | 1 and 1/2 to 2 hours drive south of SF in Santa Cruz | | Age | No age requirements — passengers as young as 3 years old and as old as 96 | Must be 18 years old | | Experience | Leave the ground with an already open canopy for a 30-40 minute scenic flight | 1 minute free fall, strong jolt when chute opens, 3 minute ride | Paragliding is a much more enjoyable experience for those trying both activities.

The same operator also runs Sequoia Aerial Adventures, a separate ropes course at the same location with different elements and requirements. Phone: 831-430-4357. ### Yosemite Ziplines and Adventure Ranch — Mariposa 4808 Highway 140, Mariposa, CA. About 3.5 hours east of the Bay Area. Listings differ on operating status as of late 2025: Yelp marks the business closed, while the operator's social pages indicate open by reservation. The historical published tour ran seven ziplines totalling 3,800 feet over about 2 hours, with a weight range of 60 to 250 pounds and no posted age minimum, for groups of 8 to 10. Confirm operating status by phone before planning a trip around this venue. Phone: (209) 742-4844. ## Equipment and Mechanics The rider's harness clips to a wheeled trolley that rolls on a tensioned steel cable strung between two elevated platforms. Both Bay Area operators use a two-trolley attachment (a primary trolley plus a redundant backup) and an automatic braking system at the landing platform, so the rider does not hand-brake. A canopy tour is a series of these cable runs connected by short walking sections or sky bridges. A full Bay Area tour covers six or seven lines over two to two and a half hours; total time on the cable is a few minutes across all lines, with the remainder spent on platforms, walking, and at the safety briefing. ## What to Wear and Bring - Closed-toe shoes that stay on the foot. Sandals and flip-flops are not permitted at either Bay Area operator. - Pants, jeans, or knee-length shorts. The harness sits across the hips and thighs. - A long-sleeve layer for the redwood canopy, which runs about 10 to 15 degrees Fahrenheit cooler than the surrounding valleys. - Glasses on a retention strap, if worn. - Long hair tied back. Both operators provide harness, helmet, gloves, and trolley. Loose handheld items (phones, keys, wallets) are not permitted on the line and must be stored at the base. Both operators offer rentable helmet cameras for personal footage. ## Ziplining and Tandem Paragliding The two activities are searched in the same context but produce different experiences. A canopy tour consists of multiple short cable rides over two to two and a half hours; each ride lasts a few seconds to about a minute, and the rider does not steer. A tandem paragliding flight is one continuous flight under a fabric wing, typically 15 to 45 minutes in the air, with smooth turns and a launch altitude of 1,000 to 2,000 feet above the landing site. A paraglider can cover several miles laterally and change altitude in flight. Both accept first-time participants without prior experience. ## Frequently Asked Questions What is ziplining?+ Ziplining is a guided activity in which the participant wears a harness, clips into a wheeled trolley on a tensioned steel cable, and rides from one elevated platform to the next. The cable does the work; the rider does not need to steer or pedal. Where can I go ziplining near San Francisco?+ Two commercial canopy-tour operators run within driving distance of the city: Sonoma Zipline Adventures in Occidental (about 90 minutes north) and Mount Hermon Adventures in Felton (about an hour south of San Jose). A third venue, Yosemite Ziplines and Adventure Ranch in Mariposa, has inconsistent listings as of late 2025 and is worth confirming by phone before scheduling. How much does ziplining cost in the Bay Area?+ Sonoma Zipline Adventures publishes a price range of $119 to $149 per person for the Tree Tops Tour. Mount Hermon Adventures lists tiered pricing for the Redwood Canopy Tour: $116 weekday and $126 weekend off-season (September 1 to April 30), $136 weekday and $146 weekend in May, and $146 weekday and $156 weekend from June 1 through August 31. What is the minimum age?+ Both Bay Area operators set the minimum age at 10. Sonoma requires riders under 16 to be accompanied by a parent or adult. What are the weight limits?+ Sonoma Zipline Adventures requires a weight between 70 and 250 pounds. Mount Hermon Adventures requires a weight between 75 and 250 pounds and a minimum height of 52 inches (4 feet 4 inches). How long is a tour?+ Sonoma's Tree Tops and Forest Flight tours each take about 2.5 hours from gear-up to dismount. Mount Hermon's Redwood Canopy Tour takes about 2 hours. Most of the elapsed time is spent on platforms, briefings, and short walks between launches; total time on the cable is a few minutes across all lines. Do I need any prior experience?+ No. Both operators begin every tour with a safety briefing and a short practice line. Do tours run in the rain?+ Yes. Both Sonoma and Mount Hermon operate year-round, rain or shine. Tours are cancelled only for high winds, lightning, or intense rain. Cancellation and reschedule policies are operator-specific and posted on each operator's site. What should I wear?+ Closed-toe shoes that stay on the foot (sneakers or hiking shoes are typical), pants or knee-length shorts, and a long-sleeve layer for the redwood canopy, which runs about 10 to 15 degrees Fahrenheit cooler than the surrounding valleys. Long hair should be tied back. Glasses must be secured with a retention strap. Sonoma does not permit skirts or dresses. Can I bring a phone or camera on the line?+ No. Loose handheld items are not permitted on the cable at either Bay Area operator. Both operators rent helmet-mounted cameras. What is the difference between ziplining and tandem paragliding?+ Ziplining is a fixed-cable activity in which the participant rides between pre-built platforms with no in-flight control over direction or altitude. A typical canopy tour covers six or seven cable runs over about two hours. Tandem paragliding is a free flight under a fabric wing; the pilot can steer, climb, and descend, and the flight lasts roughly 15 to 45 minutes from a launch altitude of 1,000 to 2,000 feet above the landing site. Both accept first-time participants without prior experience. --- ## Speed to Fly {#speed-to-fly} ### Speed to Fly The expression Speed to Fly represents the adjustments to a Paraglider's speed in relation to wind, lift and sink. Maximizing glide based on this relationship is a constant process while flying. Speed to Fly is a key that not only makes you a better pilot, but helps build a connection between you and the wing. This article was written to provide the basics of Speed to Fly and techniques to adjust your speed based on these variables. There are tools that you can use (speed rings on variometers or GPS systems), but not all pilots have these included in their gear. Besides, learning to fly without instruments is a large part of growing as a pilot. Learning to adjust Speed to Fly continuously while in flight can be done with some simple observations. If you want to learn the math part of the equation, many articles teach about Speed to Fly by using a polar. The math part of the equation works for some, but not everyone is good with numbers or looking at graphs. It's important to learn the theory, then practice making adjustments to hone a full understanding. Having a solid understanding of Speed to Fly will help you fly higher, stay up longer, and improve your senses of wind and lift. The basics apply equally to ridge soaring or thermal flying. The main factors that affect Speed to Fly are only two: relative wind direction and lift or sink. The generalized adjustments involved in Speed to Fly are: ### In Lift / Sink - Fly slower in lift - Fly faster in sink ### In Headwind / Tailwind - Fly faster into a headwind - Fly slower with a tailwind Next, you need to learn why each of these statements is true. In each of the below descriptions, eliminate the secondary set of variables and imagine that there is only one. For the wind descriptions, assume there is 0 on the lift / sink components and for the lift / sink descriptions, there is no headwind or tailwind. ## Fly faster into a headwind This is perhaps the easiest of these to grasp. In still air (no wind and no lift or sink), most Paragliders get their best glide at or very near trim speed. For simplicity, let's say that the sample Paraglider flies at 20 MPH at trim. In general, I like to promote that for any headwind above 12 – 15 MPH without lift, your best Speed to Fly will be most to full speed bar. This is very easy to see in a stronger wind situation. Picture yourself at 100 feet above the ground, pointing straight into a 20 MPH headwind. At trim, you will hover downward toward the ground at the sink rate your glider gets at trim speed. You will land on the exact spot beneath you. If you fly any slower, you will fly backward. If you fly faster (pushing on a speed bar), you will improve your glide by moving forward. You will in fact descend faster because of a slight increase your sink rate, but the factor of forward motion will be a greater. A slight headwind is not quite as easy to picture. Imagine yourself at 100 ft above the ground, pointing straight into a 5 MPH headwind. Flying slower will shorten your glide path. Flying full speed will also shorten your glide path. To maximize your flight path, about 25 to 50 % of the speed bar would be close. Note that in lighter headwinds, the difference in glide is not nearly as significant into stronger headwinds, but it is significant nonetheless. I recommend that up to about a 5 MPH headwind, trim is close enough to be acceptable. Keep in mind that the speed ranges I am discussing are generalizations and not correct for all gliders. **To summarize:** - Fly at Trim in no wind or very light headwind situations. - Fly at full Speed Bar in any wind above 12 or 15 MPH. - Between 6 and 12 MPH wind, the speed bar will be pushed progressively. ## Fly slower with a tailwind This is very similar to the above, but instead of accelerating as the headwind increases, you will fly progressively slower as the tailwind is stronger. Here, Min Sink is like full speed bar in the above "headwind" scenario. Other than in a flair, Min Sink is as slow as you should ever fly in a Paraglider. In any tailwind above 12 or 15 MPH, you will likely get your best glide by flying at Min Sink Speed. Because of the extra 12 + MPH groundspeed you will have over your airspeed, time spent in the air gains you more distance. The combination of your slowest descent rate and the high groundspeed (Windspeed + Airspeed) will help your glide the most. Since minimum sink speed maximizes the time you are in the air, flying slower helps you fly the furthest with a tailwind. Most gliders get their best glide in 0 wind at or very close to trim speed. With a 12 + MPH tailwind, most gliders will get their best glide at or very close to min sink speed. In a very light tailwind up to about 5 MPH, there will not be a very significant improvement in glide by adding a little brake. But, in winds above 5MPH it will begin to become much more significant. So between 5 and 15, you will fly progressively slower between light braking at 5 to min sink around 12 or 15 MPH tailwind. ## Fly slower in lift The rule with lift is pretty clear as well because if you can maintain or climb, obviously this is going to extend your glide. If you are in fact ascending, to maximize the ascent rate, you will fly minimum sink. Anytime the air is going up at least as fast as your Paraglider's Min. Sink rate, flying Min Sink will get you the furthest. You might notice that a pattern is developing here. In 0 lift you start off at Trim and progressively go to Min. Sink as the lift increases to match your gliders Min Sink speed. For any lift that exceeds your gliders Min Sink rate, you will go up the fastest at Min Sink speed. The faster you go up, the higher you will get and with height comes distance. ## Fly Faster in sink This is true because of the shorter time you will be in the air as a result of the descending air. During this time, flying faster becomes more of a factor than how fast you are descending. This one is among the hardest to perceive, so you have to either use your vario to sense the amount of sink, or use the visual references. Starting at 0 lift/sink you fly trim. If your glider descends at 260 ft / Min at Best L/D (trim) and the sink cycle you are in is down at 240 feet / Min you will be descending at 500 ft / Min continuing to fly at trim. By flying faster you will descend a smaller percentage than the speed you increase. In all of these examples, it is simply a vector of whether speed or sink rate is going to help you glide the furthest. ## Application in the "Real World" Most of the time there are blends of wind and lift/sink factors. You could encounter sink and a headwind at the same time. This is an easy one, as both tell you to speed up. The combination will lead you to fly faster. Contrarily, you could just as well fly into a thermal as you are penetrating a headwind. With this type of situation, you need to judge which factor is the dominant one. If the thermal in this situation is strong enough for you to maintain or climb a little near minimum sink speed and you are still moving forward, then you would likely continue to fly near minimum sink speed (choosing that the lift is the stronger factor). But if the thermal is not so strong and the headwind is strong (at min sink you are not penetrating), then the wind is the stronger factor in this situation. It becomes pretty easy to pick the larger factor in the real world when you have ground references to check. Imagine that you are gliding toward an LZ that has trees around it including one at the far end. The top of the tree is in front of a contrasting field. As you glide toward your LZ, you can use the top of the tree to help you adjust your Speed to Fly. By referencing the relative motion of this tree top to the background, you can determine whether your glide will take you past the tree or not. If the top of the tree is moving up relative to the field, you will land short of the tree. If the tree top is moving down relative to the field, your glide will carry you past the tree. If it is perfectly still against the background, your current glide will take you right to the tree top. How do you use reference points to adjust your Speed to Fly? In the simplest sense, you make adjustments to speed with the goal of improving your glide via the visual reference. If the tree is moving downward relative to the field, you will try to adjust your speed to maximize the tree moving downward, or, if the tree is moving upward relative to the field, you will make adjustments to minimize how fast it is going up. You can look in many directions and have different objects to cross reference against. In one direction it might be the top of a tree, in another the top of a ridge or mountain, in another a radio tower in the distance. You can even use other gliders in front of you if they are heading in the same direction. Although other gliders are not fixed, you can tell if you are improving your glide by adjusting the same way against them as for fixed objects. The point is that no matter what direction you are going there is almost always something to use as visual tool to help adjust your Speed to Fly (The main exception here is when you are way high over flatland or a lone mountain). Keep in mind that only references in front of you will work effectively, references to the side don't work (because you are not gliding toward them). Using a vario is another tool that can help you fine tune Speed to Fly. As stated above, if you can maintain or climb in lift, then min sink will be the correct Speed to Fly. On the contrary, if at min sink speed, you are descending, you should speed up a little. If you are sinking moderate to fast, then your best Speed to Fly will likely include some speed bar. Using the visual references can help you take Speed to Fly to the next level. After you make an initial adjustment, you can use your reference point in front of you to see if there has been improvement (if it was moving up relative to its background, it would now be moving up slower … and visa versa) All of the adjustments are a continual process and are never fixed. When the wind gusts, you need to adjust your speed (fly faster in a headwind) while flying through such a gust. As soon as the gust ends, you would readjust your speed. For each change in lift or sink, you will use the above 4 rules as an initial in seeking the right Speed to Fly. If a factor is prolonged and time permits, you can use any horizon reference to fine tune your adjustment. You can even use other gliders in front of you. The only hard and fast rule is that the reference should be in the direction you are heading. The first step in learning this is to begin combining your awareness of the basic adjustments. Then, you can begin to improve your relative glide by managing speed to fly with better understanding.

Book Your Flight Today [Book Now](/book-a-tandem-paragliding-flight) --- ## Aerodynamic Lift {#aerodynamic-lift} ### Aerodynamic Lift ## No One Can Explain Why Planes Stay in the Air In December 2003, the *New York Times* published an article commemorating the Wright brothers' centennial, asking a fundamental question: What keeps planes airborne? When interviewed, John D. Anderson Jr., curator of aerodynamics at the National Air and Space Museum, provided a surprising answer: "There is no simple one-liner answer to this." Over 15 years later, multiple competing theories still exist, each defended with considerable passion by experts. The challenge exists across two levels of explanation. Technical mathematical analysis successfully predicts aircraft behavior through complex equations and computational models. However, providing an intuitive, physical explanation remains contentious. This gap between mathematical accuracy and conceptual clarity generates ongoing debate among aerodynamicists. ### Two Competing Theories #### Bernoulli's Explanation Daniel Bernoulli's 1738 principle states that fluid pressure decreases as velocity increases. Applied to wings, this theory suggests air moves faster across the curved upper surface, creating lower pressure and generating lift. However, Bernoulli's principle has significant limitations. It fails to explain *why* air accelerates over curved surfaces. The "equal transit time" theory — suggesting air parcels must reunite at the trailing edge — contradicts empirical observation. Additionally, aircraft with symmetrical or flat airfoils successfully fly inverted, contradicting predictions based solely on Bernoulli's principle. A common classroom demonstration proves problematic: blowing across a curved paper sheet makes it rise, yet blowing across a flat vertical sheet produces no movement, despite obvious velocity differences. This reveals that pressure differences alone don't fully explain the phenomenon. #### Newton's Third Law Approach The alternative explanation relies on Newton's principle of action and reaction: wings push air downward, generating equal upward force. This approach applies universally to all wing shapes and flight orientations, addressing limitations inherent in Bernoulli's explanation. However, Newton's third law alone cannot explain the lower pressure region above the wing that persists regardless of wing shape. This pressure difference remains an inescapable component requiring separate explanation. ### Historical Context Neither Bernoulli nor Newton attempted explaining aviation — they preceded mechanical flight by centuries. When the Wright brothers' achievement necessitated understanding aerodynamic principles, scientists initially applied simplified models assuming incompressible, frictionless fluids. Notably, Albert Einstein contributed to early aerodynamic theory. Publishing "Elementary Theory of Water Waves and of Flight" in 1916, Einstein proposed explanations assuming ideal fluids. He subsequently designed the "cat's-back wing," resembling a stretched cat's back. A test pilot reported the resulting aircraft "waddled like a pregnant duck." Einstein himself later called this "youthful folly." ### Contemporary Understanding Modern computational fluid dynamics employs the Navier-Stokes equations, accounting for air's actual viscosity. These mathematical solutions accurately predict pressure distributions and airflow patterns, yet remain fundamentally equations rather than intuitive explanations. Aerodynamicist Doug McLean proposed a more comprehensive approach. His explanation identifies four interdependent components: - Downward airflow turning - Increased airflow speed - Lower pressure regions - Higher pressure regions Crucially, McLean emphasizes these elements exist in reciprocal cause-and-effect relationships: they support each other and none would exist without the others. This mutual reinforcement, driven by Newton's second law, creates self-sustaining pressure dynamics when wings move through air. ### Remaining Questions Mark Drela, Massachusetts Institute of Technology professor, explains that air parcels follow wing curvature because a vacuum would be created if they separated. This partial vacuum pulls parcels downward, maintaining airfoil contact and creating the reduced pressure region. As a side effect, this suction accelerates approaching air upstream. However, complete disagreement persists. Cambridge aerodynamicist Holger Babinsky disputes this explanation, noting flow sometimes separates from surfaces despite vacuum theory predictions. He acknowledges: "There is no quick and easy explanation." Despite a century of aviation and sophisticated mathematical frameworks, scientists cannot provide a universally accepted, intuitive explanation of aerodynamic lift. Multiple valid perspectives exist, each explaining certain aspects while leaving others unclear. The phenomenon remains understood mathematically and operationally, yet resists simple physical explanation — a remarkable gap in scientific understanding given that evolution solved this problem millions of years ago through bird flight. --- ## USHPA P2 Test Study Guide {#ushpa-p2-test-study-guide} ### USHPA P2 Test Study Guide ## Pilot Proficiency and Regulations ### USHPA Recommended Operating Limitations As a newly certified Novice (P2) pilot, you should avoid flying in thermals with average climb rates exceeding 200 feet per minute until you fully understand the associated dangers. The recommendation emphasizes the importance of gradually building experience and skills before venturing into more challenging conditions. ### Wind Limitations for Novice Pilots The maximum base wind you should launch in is 12 mph, with gusts no higher than 15 mph and a gust rate of no more than 5 mph in 5 seconds. Understanding wind conditions and their impact on paragliding is crucial for safe launches and flights. ### Federal Aviation Regulations (FARs) Paragliders are classified as ultralight vehicles and must adhere to FAR Part 103. Understanding these regulations, including airspace classifications and visibility requirements, is essential for legal and safe flying. ### Airspace Classifications Familiarize yourself with different airspace classifications (Class A through G) and their associated rules. You should know which airspace areas require prior authorization and which ones are generally suitable for paragliding without specific permission. ### Visibility and Cloud Clearance Requirements When flying in Class E airspace below 10,000 feet MSL, you must maintain 3 statute miles of visibility and remain clear of clouds. Understanding these requirements helps ensure safe operations in controlled airspace. ### Temporary Flight Restrictions (TFRs) TFRs can be imposed with short notice to restrict flights over specific areas due to various reasons like presidential visits, national security concerns, or major events. It's important to be aware of TFRs and comply with them, as they apply to all aircraft, including paragliders. ## Piloting Skills ### Right of Way Rules Understand right-of-way rules, especially in situations like ridge soaring and thermalling. The general principle is to give way to the pilot who has fewer options to maneuver safely. ### Thermaling When circling in a thermal, all pilots should turn in the same direction, typically determined by the first pilot in the thermal. The higher pilot generally has the right of way. ### Maximizing Glide in Tailwind When flying with a tailwind and unsure about reaching the landing area, fly at trim speed to maximize your glide distance. ### Reserve Deployment Scenarios Know when it's appropriate to throw your reserve parachute. Scenarios like being caught in strong rotor or experiencing a severe glider malfunction at low altitudes might necessitate reserve deployment. ### Stalls Understand that stalls can occur regardless of brake position, especially in situations with low ground speed or significant changes in airflow. ### Flying Upwind In a headwind, flying at trim speed or slightly faster with some speed bar will help you penetrate further upwind. ### Initiating Turns in Thermals Use a combination of weight shift and gentle brake input in the desired turn direction while maintaining some pressure on the opposite brake for coordinated turns. ### Speed Bar Usage Near Landing Avoid using the speed bar when landing, especially in nil-wind or tailwind conditions, as it can increase the risk of glider deflations and complicate landing. ### Minimizing Accidental Stalls/Spins Fly smoothly, avoid abrupt and deep brake inputs, and be mindful of your glider's flight characteristics and limitations. ### Turning Near Terrain Avoid performing 360-degree turns or attempting to climb close to the terrain, as it can lead to downwind drift, unexpected sink, or loss of control. ### Steep Banked Turns Exercise caution when performing steep turns with a lot of brake input, as it can increase the risk of spins or loss of control. ### Locked-In Spirals If you enter a spiral that doesn't show signs of recovery, throw your reserve parachute after a couple of rotations or sooner if you experience any signs of disorientation or blackout. ### Canopy Certifications Understand the different EN certification ratings for paragliders (A, B, C, D) and their implications for pilot skill and experience levels. Consult your instructor for guidance on choosing an appropriate glider. ### Ridge Soaring in Crosswind When ridge soaring in a crosswind with high ground speed, move away from the hill and maintain adequate airspeed to avoid the risk of stalling or being pushed downwind into the terrain. ### UV Degradation Paraglider fabric is susceptible to UV degradation, which can compromise its strength and safety over time. The extent of degradation depends on factors like sunlight exposure, fabric quality, and construction. ### Landing Near Hazards When landing near obstacles, avoid fixating on them. Instead, focus on your intended landing spot and maintain awareness of your airspeed and surroundings. ### Crosswind Launches In smooth, light winds on an open launch site, novice pilots should limit themselves to launching in crosswinds of no more than 10 degrees. ### Glide Ratio and Distance Calculation Understand how to calculate your potential glide distance based on your glider's glide ratio, altitude, wind conditions, and airspeed. ### Stalls and Brake Position Remember that stalls can happen regardless of brake position. Pay attention to your glider's behavior and other cues to anticipate and avoid stalls. ### Asymmetric Collapses If you experience an asymmetric collapse, prioritize maintaining a safe heading using weight shift and/or opposite brake. Avoid overcontrolling the glider. ### Line Tangles If your wingtip gets tangled in the lines, maintain heading control and try to clear the tangle using brakes or the stabilo line. If the situation worsens, consider throwing your reserve. ### Speed Bar and Glide Using the speed bar (within safe limits) in still air will increase your glide distance but decrease your flight time compared to flying at trim speed. ### Minimum Sink vs. Trim Speed Flying at minimum sink will maximize your flight time but reduce your glide distance compared to flying at trim speed. ### Spins vs. Spirals **Spin:** One wing is stalled, rotating in a negative (backward) direction, resulting in rapid altitude loss. **Spiral:** Both sides of the glider are flying in a positive (forward) direction, but the glider is in a steep banked turn with increasing speed. ### Coordinated Turns Use a combination of weight shift and progressive brake applications for smooth and coordinated turns. ### High-Performance Gliders These gliders are not suitable for novice pilots due to their increased sensitivity, demanding handling characteristics, and potential for more violent reactions to collapses or turbulence. ### Wind Force Calculation The force of the wind is calculated by squaring the wind speed. For example, a 10 mph wind has four times the force of a 5 mph wind. ### Water Landings If you must land in water, try to relax, stay with your glider until it stops, then release yourself from the harness and swim away from the glider and lines. Consider wearing a life jacket for added safety. ### Ridge Soaring and Lift Band If you're ridge soaring and struggling to penetrate forward despite gaining altitude, consider using speed bar (if appropriate for your skill level) to move away from the lift band and gain more forward speed. ### Spin Recovery The most appropriate initial response to a spin is to release brake pressure to un-stall the wing. Maintain good flying posture and be prepared to manage any subsequent deflations or heading issues. ### Legal Flying Areas You may fly your paraglider in uncontrolled airspace, but avoid flying over congested areas or within restricted airspace without proper authorization. Familiarize yourself with FAA airspace rules and regulations. ### Sink Rate and Airspeed Flying slower than minimum sink will decrease your airspeed but increase your sink rate, bringing you closer to a stall. ### Big Ears This maneuver reduces the wing's surface area and increases drag, resulting in a slower airspeed and a faster descent rate. You can still steer the glider using weight shift while holding the big ears. ### Clearing Turns Before initiating a turn, scan your surroundings in all directions to ensure it's safe to do so. Look in the direction of the turn as you begin it. ### Reserve Parachute It's generally recommended to carry a reserve parachute on most flights, except for low-altitude training flights where deployment might not be feasible. ### Harness Waist Belt Width The width of your harness' waist belt affects your control and stability. A narrower setting can increase the risk of riser twists during rotations like spins. Stay within the manufacturer's recommended adjustment range. ### Launching in High Winds Launching in stronger winds requires specific skills and techniques, including maintaining adequate airspeed and a higher angle of attack. ### Getting Seated in Harness The best time to get seated in your harness is after launching and establishing a safe heading in smooth air. Use a technique that allows you to maintain a positive connection with the glider throughout the process. ### Landing with a Tailwind If the wind switches to a tailwind during your final approach, be prepared for a faster ground speed. Fly at trim and execute an aggressive flare to minimize your landing speed. Be ready to run or slide upon touchdown if necessary. ### Maximizing Glide in Lift/Sink To maximize your glide distance in varying lift and sink, fly faster in sink and slower in lift. ## Weather ### Hazardous Flying Conditions The presence of dark clouds, cumulus clouds taller than they are wide, and virga (rain that evaporates before reaching the ground) can all indicate potential hazards for paraglider pilots. These could include strong updrafts, downdrafts, turbulence, or even the possibility of thunderstorms. ### Wind Assessment on Launch The wind you feel at launch might not represent the wind conditions higher up the mountain or in the landing area. The wind at the top of the hill could be in a different direction or stronger, and there's a possibility of rotor or turbulence in between. ### Mechanical Turbulence This type of turbulence is caused by obstacles like trees, hills, or other aircraft disrupting the smooth flow of air. It's most commonly found downwind of these obstacles. ### Changing Winds at Launch If the winds at launch are switching 180 degrees and varying significantly in velocity without a clear pattern, it could indicate unstable weather conditions and a bad time to launch. ### Haze Layer A thick haze layer below you can affect flying conditions. Thermals might be weak or difficult to find, wind speed and direction could change below the haze layer, and there could be turbulence at the boundary between the clear air and the haze. ## Risk Management and Safety ### Safe Flying Conditions in Strong Winds On windy days, safer flying conditions are more likely to be found on smaller, smoother hills with few obstructions. Large mountains or cliff sites can be more exposed to strong winds and turbulence. ### First Flights at a New Site When flying at a new site for the first time, prioritize smooth conditions, light or no thermal activity, and a simple flight plan. Choose a stable glider and gradually explore the site as you gain more experience. ### Failed Launch Attempts If you experience multiple failed launch attempts in strong conditions, it's crucial to step back and reassess. Wait for lighter conditions or consider not flying if the conditions exceed your skill level. ### Landing in Trees If you're forced to land in an area with many trees, prioritize protecting yourself. Aim for a dense, soft tree or bush to slow your descent and minimize the risk of injury. ### Dangers of Big Ears Be cautious when performing big ears, as there's a risk of accidentally pulling the wrong risers or experiencing reduced directional control and potential deflations. ### Paragliding and Risk Paragliding involves inherent risks, but these risks can be managed and reduced through proper training, equipment, and decision-making. Fly within your skill level and prioritize safety at all times. ### Glider Certification Ratings Higher-rated gliders are designed for more experienced pilots and can exhibit more dynamic behavior, requiring precise pilot input to recover from collapses or other flight events. Consult your instructor to choose a glider appropriate for your skill level. --- ## Airspace Regulations {#air-space-regulations} ### Airspace Regulations ## Airspace Regulations & Resources ### Online Resources #### [SkyVector](https://skyvector.com/) A website for looking up sectional charts and checking for TFRs (Temporary Flight Restrictions). #### [Paragliding Earth](https://paraglidingearth.com/) A comprehensive list of most paragliding sites with site administrator information and rating requirements. ### Reference Documents - Part 103 for Ultralights - FAA guidance on sectional charts from the Pilot's Handbook of Aeronautical Knowledge - USHPA P2 Operating Limitations for novice paragliding pilots --- ## Bay Area Weather {#bay-area-weather} ### Bay Area Weather ## Bay Area Weather Resources ### Forecast - NOAA Bay Area 7 Day - Forecast Discussion - Satellite Loop - USAirNet - XCSkies - SkewT - Winds Aloft Forecast ### Observations - Windy - Wind Alert - Fog - Tide Chart - Jet Stream - Doppler - Pressure Systems - Winds Aloft ### Wind Stations - Mussel Rock - Vallejo --- ## Paragliding Pacifica {#paragliding-pacifica} ### Paragliding Pacifica There are a number of locations people launch paragliders from in Pacifica, all of which are unrated.

The site is unregulated but should be considered a P3 site due to strong imbedded thermic conditions especially during the summer months. There are lots of rocks and sharp boulders hidden in the grass as well as other obstacles both on launch and in the landing zones. P2 pilots should seek local instruction and only fly when others are present. ### Type of Flying Both ridge soaring and thermal flying depending on the day and weather conditions. Optimal conditions for beginners include low thermic activity with steady west winds between 9-12 mph. Advanced pilots may attempt cross-country flights with stronger thermic activity, but airspace restrictions apply in the area. ### Land Blue Rock is located on Vallejo City Park land which has been set aside for public use.

Standard sea-level pressure measures 14.7 pounds per square inch or 1013 millibars on weather maps. ### High Pressure Systems In high-pressure areas, air descends toward the surface. As it sinks, the air compresses and warms, reducing relative humidity and creating dry conditions with minimal cloud formation. In the northern hemisphere wind blows away from and rotates clockwise around the center of a high pressure system. This rotation results from Earth's rotation and the Coriolis effect, which reverses in the southern hemisphere. ### Low Pressure Systems Rising air characterizes low-pressure systems. As air rises it cools causing its relativity humidity to increase which then often times causes clouds to form. Wind moves toward the center and rotates counterclockwise around these systems. ### Wind Direction The "right hand rule" helps predict wind patterns: point your thumb in the air's movement direction, and your fingers indicate rotation direction. ### Isobars & Wind Strength Pressure map intensity reveals wind strength. Closely spaced isobars indicate the strongest winds. ### Impact on Thermals High-pressure conditions produce smaller, sharper thermals that must overcome sinking air. Low-pressure days typically feature widespread lift and larger, softer thermals. --- ## Education {#education} Training references, certification guides, and continuing education resources. ### Education Browse training references, certification guides, and continuing education resources for pilots building skill, judgment, and confidence. --- ## Instructors {#instructors} Meet our paragliding team and instructors. ### Mike Fifield ### Instructor ### Daniel Kelley ### Tandem Pilot ### Joe Cruz ### Instructor ### Honza Rejmanek ### Tandem Pilot --- ## Photos {#photos} Instagram photo gallery pulled from your account. --- ## 1 Day Introductory Lesson {#1-day-introductory-lesson} One day intro paragliding lesson ### One Day Introductory Lesson Want to try out paragliding before you commit to the full P2 certification program? Our one day intro lesson may be the right option for you. In our introductory lesson you'll learn everything you would learn on day one of the full P2 novice certification program but without the commitment. At the end of the lesson if you would like to continue on with your training the price of this intro lesson goes towards your P2 Certification. **What's Included:** - Basic weather - Equipment overview - Preflight checklist - Ground handling (kiting) - Short flight if conditions and student skill allow **Details:** One of the great things about taking lessons with Paragliding SF is that we teach at lots of different flying sites in and around the San Francisco bay area. This allows our students to experience flying at different locations helping them to become more well rounded pilots. The location for the first lesson will be selected the evening before based on weather. The first lesson will cover a basic weather and equipment overview and how to get connected to and kite a paraglider. After some kiting practice if you have sufficient control of the wing you'll be able to take your first short flight or two. **What to bring:** Sturdy shoes preferably with ankle protection, long pants and a helmet if you have one. (If you don't have your own helmet you are welcome to borrow one of ours.) Water, sunscreen and gloves are also a good idea.

The PLF is a method of landing which was developed by the United States Army as part of their paratrooper training program. The purpose of performing a PLF is to minimize the chance of injury when performing a parachute jump. Because of its effectiveness the PLF has also been adopted by the paragliding community for use when a hard landing is likely such as when landing down wind or in strong thermic conditions. The PLF consists of five points of contact: 1. Balls of the feet. 2. Calf muscle. 3. Thigh muscle. 4. Buttocks. 5. Lat's. ### Determine the direction of drift. As soon as possible determine direction you are drifting by looking at the ground. It is recommended that you do this with as much altitude as possible. [Image: Determine the direction of drift.] ### Prepare to land The landing position should be assumed not less than 100 ft Above Ground Level (AGL). Press your feet and knees tightly together, bend your knees slightly and point the balls of your feet downward. Moderate muscular tension must be maintained in the legs to insure that the legs absorb a portion of the landing impact. Look at the horizon to avoid anticipating contact with the ground. ### Landing As soon as the balls of your feet come in contact with the ground twist the upper body *away* from the direction of drift. Press the outside knee against the inside knee. Fall in the direction of drift. [Image: Landing] Continue to bend and twist vigorously exposing the calf and thigh muscles. [Image: image] Ensuring that the head remains tucked tightly to the chest. The neck muscles should be tensed to prevent the head from striking the ground. [Image: image] Exhale or shout as the upper body impacts the ground, this will reduce internal pressure and help the body absorb the impact. [Image: image] Roll in the direction of drift. [Image: image] Keep the elbows in and hands up to protect the face. [Image: image] Be prepared to disable the parachute and or glider so as not to get dragged.

Whether it's been a few months or a few years, our refresher course is designed to get certified pilots back in the air safely and confidently. We start with a one-on-one discussion to understand where you left off, what you're comfortable with, and what areas you'd like to sharpen. From there, we build a personalized half-day session that meets you exactly where you are. ### What's Included ### Who Is This For? This course is ideal for USHPA-rated pilots (P2 and above) who haven't flown recently and want to rebuild currency before heading back to the mountains or coast. It's also a great fit for pilots who fly infrequently and want focused coaching to level up specific skills. No matter how long it's been, muscle memory fades — but it comes back fast with the right guidance. Our instructors will have you feeling comfortable and current by the end of the session. ### What to Expect Your refresher begins on the training hill with kiting and ground handling to reestablish your connection with the wing. Once your instructor is confident in your ground skills, we'll move to supervised flights with radio guidance, progressively building complexity as your confidence returns. We keep the ratio small — typically one-on-one — so every minute is focused on you. --- ## Mussel Rock Site Intro {#mussel-rock-site-intro} Introduction to flying at Mussel Rock paragliding site. ### Mussel Rock Site Introduction Mussel Rock is one of the most popular paragliding sites in the country. A dramatic coastal bluff on the border of Daly City and Pacifica, just fifteen minutes south of San Francisco. With reliable ocean winds, spectacular views. It can be an amazing place to fly but can also be very dangerous if you don't know what you're doing.   **We start with a full site walkthrough:** Launch locations, where you can take off from, and how to choose the right one based on the day. Wind, what ranges are workable, what’s pushing it, and what’s a no-go. What to watch for, rotor, compression, weird spots that catch people off guard. Tides, when the beach is usable and when it isn’t. Bailouts, exactly where you can land if things don’t go to plan. Positioning, how to manage altitude and stay in the right part of the lift band. Blowback, how it happens here and how to avoid it. **Radio Coaching** After a thorough walkthrough on the ground, we'll get you fitted with the radio and coach you through your first flight. --- ## Privacy Policy {#privacy-policy} ## Privacy Policy **Effective Date:** March 15, 2026 Paragliding San Francisco ("we," "us," or "our") operates the website at https://www.paraglidingsanfrancisco.com.
