Introducing the Yeti 4
The Yeti 4 is a versatile paraglider, suitable for hike ‘n fly or for thermalling and leisurely XCs.
Due to the wide range of sizes, the wing accomodates a wide range of pilots: from beginners and
pilots flying less frequently to experienced adventure pilots.
Designed for simplicity
The Yeti 4 brings comfort, ease and simplicity to lightweight paragliding.
The Yeti 4 is a 3-liner and is simple to sort out on the ground. It inflates easily and evenly,
even when the terrain or conditions are less than ideal. The low stall speed gets you airbourne
quickly and provides a good safety margin for landings. In flight, the turn is responsive and
playful, but always co-ordinated and comfortable.
The Yeti 4 is part of a complete range of lightweight equipment that provides you with
everything you need to enjoy beautiful flights in stunning scenery. Take a Yeti harness, airbag and
Yeti rescue — the only things you only need to add are your helmet and sunglasses!
More than just an “ultralight glider”
Our latest EPT airfoil means significantly more glide performance than you might expect from
such a stable, low-aspect wing. What’s more, the climb is outstanding—you can get tightly into
thermal cores. The Yeti 4 feels so secure that even in the most challenging conditions you’ll be
turning back for more.
Finely crafted from the most durable lightweight materials, you can expect a long lifetime with
normal, careful use. The Yeti utilizes the latest generation of double-coated Skytex fabrics from
Porcher Sport.
WARNING: The Yeti 4 is suitable for trainee
pilots only under the strict supervision of
a competent and qualified instructor.
