Volt 5 – Electrifying performance
Agile, smooth on the brakes and fast, here comes the Volt 5! Its predecessor revolutionized the world of EN-Cs by introducing the two-line construction in this category. The new Volt 5 continues to be at the forefront with, in particular, improved performance at top-end-speed. No more time for talking, grab your #speedmachine and get yourself electrified!
The Volt 4 being the first of its kind, we didn’t really have a benchmark at the time of its launch. Now, the market has grown and so have our knowledge and our know-how! Compared to its predecessor, the Volt 5 has gained performance at full speed and has significantly improved the floating in lifting air. Its ability to sniff out thermals will leave you astounded! Last but not least, it is now built in double-coated Dominico DOKDO-10DSF for top and bottom surfaces, a Superlight construction made to last!
New nose guard patches on the leading edge: robustness is the key!
Delivered with 12mm aramid risers as standard. Superlight Dyneema risers available as an option (-110g)
Double-coated Dominico DOKDO-10DSF for top and bottom surfaces: durable Superlight construction
Full chord Nitinol rods to not only save weight and increase robustness, but also to ensure compact folding
Highly innovative inner construction to ensure longevity of performance. Our gliders are built to last, performance included.
While introducing the 2-liner design in the EN-C category, the Volt has proven its accessibility. This is something that doesn’t change with the Volt 5. Looking for a lightweight Sport performance glider, the happy pilots choosing the Volt 5 will benefit from the passive safety and the comfort guaranteed by the Volt series and at the same time the immeasurable pleasure of flying a 2-liner.
The Volt 5? A true EN-C 2-liner for kilometer hunters, hike-and-fly athletes and every pilot looking for a high-performance but accessible 2-liner while keeping a light kit. ‘Cause “nobody likes to walk with a heavy rucksack”. Just go for it!
