The combination of all the design solution and technology results in a glider which is both a dream to fly but with an excellent level of true 

performance of its class and it’s a GAME CHANGING glider for the EN B class. Special attention was also given on the handling, especially the turn 

ability whilst circling in thermals. For us at Flow paragliders we are delighted by how the glider behaves and it is hands down one of the most 

pleasant gliders we’ve ever flown, simply a joy to fly. 

Please note that any changes to the paraglider will invalidate the result of the certification. Correct usage of the glider is the pilot‘s responsibility. 

The manufacturer and distributor do not accept liability for loss or damage as a result of the misuse of this paraglider. It is the pilot’s responsibility 

to comply with legal regulations and to maintain the airworthiness of the aircraft.
