the nose profile.

Dual Control.

Our double 3D Shaping  is a three dimensions modeling 

technology that reduces wrinkles and imperfections on 

the leading edge construction, improving the overall 

aerodynamic performance.

Greater lift (glide) due to optimization of the central 

area  of  the  wing  with  less  inclined  profiles  and  a  more 

homogeneous pressure distribution over the whole 

canopy wingspan resulting in gains of glide and speed.

Is a hybrid system of risers and lines to guarantee stability, 

reduction in line consumption and a better load distribution 

on  the  canopy  with  significantly  less  deformation  tendency 

over the time.

Adjustment system that generates more lift in flight.

Tecnologias

Profiles between the cells of the trailing edge, which improve 

performance and handling.

New Air Foil design increases and keeps the internal 

pressure more estable and  results in more performance 

in all speed range.

Is the hybrid utilization of various types of fabrics and 

lines. An optimised combination of durability and 

resistance with low deformation and less weight.

Higher Project Aspect Ratio.

Cutting edge technology laser equipments prepare all 

molds and parts of the canopy.

Reflex profile with great stability and suspension. The reflex 

profile  relocates  the  weight  distribution  to  the  front  of  the 

profile. This let the power glider fly in front of the pilot angle, 

creating speed, stability and safety in turbulence.

Load Distribution Tapes.
