Lightweight Paragliders
Less weight, more adventure. Wings optimized for Hike & Fly and Vol-Bivouac using specialized light fabrics and materials.
Benefits of Light Gear
-
Easy Inflation: Light fabric rises effortlessly, making launches in tight mountain spots easier.
-
Pack Volume: These wings compress much smaller than standard wings.
-
Agility: Lower canopy inertia leads to precise, agile handling.
Materials
These wings typically use Porcher Skytex 27g cloth and soft-links instead of metal maillons. While durable, they require care on rocky launches to prevent abrasion.
