Into the Wind
Even when you need some speed, you can rely on the DOUBLESKIN,
because it stays bravely on track and performance remains high. We
consider this characteristic to be an aspect of safety, because during
hike & fly the wind does not always behave as forecast. This brings
us to the topic of handling in thermals – this where the DOUBLESKIN
is at its best. If you are looking for a very light, playful »all-inclusive«
paraglider for your next trip or for new adventures in your local flying
area, this is the wing for you.
Technical summary
The DOUBLESKIN is an wing with 33 cells and a flat aspect
ratio of4,4. DOUBLESKIN is a wing made from very light sail cloth.
Care should be taken when handling the wing. It is possible that the
dura bility may be reduced in comparison to paragliders made from
conventional cloth.
All technical data can be found on page 72.
The DOUBLESKIN
Introduction
The DOUBLESKIN is the lightest paraglider in the world*, which has
an upper and lower surface (2.1 kilos/size 17). With its tiny packing
volume, it is pure joy in the air thanks to its superior aerodynamics
in comparison to single-surface wings. So carefree ascent is just as
much fun as the flight and landing.
(*with the same flat area, EN certification, selection of the Ultralight Riser option and not
including single-surface wings. Valid: 06/19)
One for all
The DOUBLESKIN is designed for absolute flying pleasure, because
its lightweight construction has all the advantages of a single-surface
glider, while the lower surface was retained to ensure optimum flying
characteristics. Extreme lightweight cloth and optimised slots in the
profile ribs make this the complete compact package. So you can
travel with little baggage and climb the mountains on foot – sizes
of the DOUBLESKIN offer an extended weight range for even more
dynamics and speed. In size 17, this extended weight range is
certified as EN/LTF B, sizes 20 and 23 are EN/LTF A.
Tip:
pilots with a take
off weight between
75 and 90 kilos
can fly the size 17
DOUBLE SKIN within an
extended weight as a
dynamic EN/LTF B.
