Whether it’s strong thermals, turbulent mountain air, or rough coastal ridges, the Avid is designed to handle it all with composure and confidence. It’s the wing for pilots who want performance without compromise on durability.
Gin have used their most hard-wearing materials throughout the Avid, making it ideal for pilots who fly frequently, launch from rough terrain, or simply want a wing that will hold its performance over many seasons.
