EN-B Progression & XC Wings
The most popular class in paragliding. From safe “Low-B” cruisers to high-performance “High-B” XC machines. Balance safety with performance.
Low-B vs. High-B
The EN-B category is vast.
-
Low-B (e.g., BGD Epic): Very close to EN-A safety but with better handling. Ideal for your first 2 years of flying.
-
High-B (e.g., Gin Explorer): Designed for Cross Country (XC). These offer glide ratios that rival higher classes but require active piloting skills to manage in turbulence.
The "Do-It-All" Class
EN-B wings are capable of everything from local soaring to 200km flights. They are the sweet spot for 80% of pilots.
