Introducing the
The is a performance wing that offers sporty handling and real-world performance in
a highly accessible package.
The is suitable for a wide range of pilots; from improving, ambitious pilots with a
few seasons’ flying, to very experienced pilots who wish to fly within a wider comfort zone whilst
retaining the precise handling and performance characterstics of the more demanding wings to
which they are accustomed. Experienced thermal/XC pilots flying at least 50 hours per year will
benefit the most from choosing the .
The features EPT (Equalized Pressure Technology), our numerical method of
calculating the best possible airfoil parameters for any given profile. EPT has led to improvements
in inflation/re-inflation behaviour, searching behaviour, low-speed handling, stall resistance,
climb rate, and stability in turbulence and at speed. EPT enables us to increase performance by
increasing the aspect ratio of the wing, but without the traditional trade-offs in handling and
stability.
During development of the , we spent much time working on the wing’s searching
behaviour, turn and thermalling characteristics to reach the point where we were completely
satisfied. The result is a well-finished wing that we are truely proud of.
We look forward to hearing about your flights!
TIP: To fly the , you should be
thoroughly familiar with active flying and
recovery techniques.
