CUMEO

 

1 INTRODUCTION

Welcome to skywalk!

Congratulations on the purchase of your new CUMEO and thank you for your trust in us
and in our products. In this manual you will find information that will help you quickly get
to know your new paraglider to ensure your fun for a long time.

At skywalk we are enthusiastic about wind sports and innovative technologies. When we 
founded skywalk in 2001, our goal was to make paragliders and kites that offer new solutions 
to set new impulses, and to provide customers with a maximum of user friendliness.
Today we are one of the most successful paraglider manufacturers in the world.
For this we are thankful for our curiosity about everything that flies, sails and surfs,
as well as our interest in a variety of outdoor sports.  It’s this “big picture” view that allows 
us to continuously set new accents in paragliding.

We are always open for questions, comments or critique and are happy to provide
you at any time with further information!

Your skywalk Team

PURE PASSION FOR FLYING
