HYBRID TECHNOLOGY

The Hybrid is a new category of wing in our sport, with unprecedented flying characteristics. This unique
design combines a classic double surface profile with a single surface profile, together creating a hybrid
profile.

The Hybrid is much more than an exotic wing for special purposes. This version is intended for Tandem
Flying. It offers many advantages over single skin.
The Hybrid Tandem is light (~4.3 kg), but not specifically designed to be a "Lightweight" wing.
The absence of bottom surface on the back part of the wing saves weight but is also what makes it fly in
such a special way, and the resulting profile from this design gives unparalleled stability in pitch, roll and
yaw axis.
