ROWDY

Some of you asked for a PARAKITE! So I was calculating a lot: doing CFD simulations and FSI analysis. Finally we built 3 prototypes. Everyone of them was good! We were choosing the best one, which is the most simple and radical one to be produced in series: The ROWDY is a revolution in simplicity…

BEAT 2 light NT

Following the huge success of our new NITINOL TECHNOLOGY in MAESTRO 3, we are now introducing its little brother: Introducing the BEAT 2 light NT (NITINOL TECHNOLOGY)! The trim and cuts remain the same, but we are now using the new 4-layer MJ29 fabric. Our NITINOL technology with NEORPENE padding in the nose creates a…

MAESTRO 3 light

The MAESTRO 3 light is here! Same as the normal version, the light version has NITINOL rods and NEOPRENE paddings in the nose, to protect the cloth in that critical area. We wanted to offer an “all day robustness” rather than being super light on the cost of durability. Even the high technical effort, the…

MAESTRO 3

Here is the MAESTRO 3! The MAESTRO 3 has a touch more aspect ratio, a different profile, different rods (Nitinol with padding), a slightly different rigging, different straps, canopy tension, mini ribs etc. It performs better, flies a little nicer, is even more stable and has much better, smoother handling. Overall it feels much more…

You can fly it with or without seat plate. You can optionally install additional protectors. You can change and customise the outer shell to…

RONDO

Performance shared is performance doubled! As most biplace wings on the market are low B concepts, we heard of the demand for a high performance wing, that is stylish and a joy to fly with. So here is the RONDO: a high aspect ratio High B wing! The performance is amazing: you need a high…

SOLA UL

The fascination of minimalism! The fundamental fascination of paragliding is based not only on the flying possibilities of the aircraft but above all on the ultra-compact dimensions when packed up. As a human being, you can always have your wings with you: a very attractive idea that “inspires” your imagination.

BEAT 2

The BEAT GOES ON! Here is the long awaited BEAT 2 and BEAT 2 light! You will experience the clearly better, more forgiving take off behaviour. You may immediately feel the better handling, higher agility, even more “defined” feedback. The playful ease with which you dance your way to the top of the thermalling pulk…

SCALA 2 light

The first SCALA 2 light have arrived! Sizes 18 and 19 have successfully passed the certification tests with an EN C classification. It’s not just the certification (SCALA 1 was EN D) that is different. We have improved and optimized many parameters: -wing airfoil and suspensions are different. -sail tension (ballooning) is new. -the entire…

TENOR 2 light

Here comes the TENOR 2 light! Same as the normal version, the light version lost weight compared to it’s already ultralight predecessor (even being slightly larger). The TENOR 2 light has around 200g less weight (depending on size). Again the whole wing is made of Skytex 27 double coated. The TENOR light was one of…

TENOR 2

The TENOR 2 is here! The TENOR 2 is a little larger than the first generation. In contrast to the first one, there are more differences between the sisters SYMPHONIA 2 and TENOR 2. The TENOR 2 has different line layout with less top lines (more diagonals), resulting in a little bit better performance. Even…

VIOLA 2

The VIOLA 2 is here! Despite the miniribs in the nose, the VIOLA 2 is even lighter than the first version! -and much more balanced! Better launch, better roll damping, better handling: but what am I telling you! – try it yourself!

SONATA 2

We are learning more and more. We are learning with every prototype wing we build and analyse. We are learning about performance wings and safety on the bottom of the range. More and more we are able to combine performance and safety: here is the SONATA 2!

SYMPHONIA 2

Around 4.5 years ago we introduced a funny striped A class wing that cost as much as a High B glider. We then also communicated that this wing offers high B performance! -many competitors laughed at us! -all of them have lost their laughter by now… 🙂 Not only have we created a new class…

SOLA

Nice H&F in Roquebrune with CABRIO light in reversible configuration including additional backprotector and seatplate.
I was testing the 70l rucksack (nice: maybe longer shoulder straps needed).
Reversability works very good (several rucksack sizes can be mounted).
The additional back protector (D3O) gives the rucksack a good form stability and is improving the seat comfort in flight even more. 
With the new Kortel rings the speed system is super smooth!
Please give it a try! 
Certification is done, production is starting.
