Which size is right for you?
The M size is now the standard size for most pilots. If you are a heavier pilot (>90kg) or find
that you are consistently loading your wing at higher end, then you may consider the L size.
Features:
•
High Lift Profile (HLP): Provides greater lift compared to standard profiles. Therefore, it’s
possible to load more weight on a compact sized glider and still have the feeling of lift that
you‘d normally expect from a larger wing; giving perfect speed throughout the weight-
range, incredible lift and awesome handling.
•
Compact sizing: Ensures perfect flying characteristics on low loadings. Maintains handling
agility and stability.
•
Revised trimmer system: Extremely effective trimmer range enables excellent top speed –
accelerating up to +11kmh when fully opened, while also ensuring that the wing is stable
and handles perfectly.
•
Big-ears system: Split A-risers to support big ear line retention via the newly developed
spreader ball keeper system. (SKS)
•
Reduced overall weight due to compact sizing and optimized inner construction utilising a
durable time-proven material mix, ideal for commercial use.
