Info

Tech

Progressive Stability

Progressive stability has been designed into all our gliders to help pilots feel turbulence and avoid it. This makes for safer and more comfortable flying.

Reflex profile

A reflex profile means better stability at high speeds.

Tip Steering Toggles

We have added dedicated magnetically fastened tip steering handles into the glider to make high-speed manoeuvres easy and safer.

Target

The Luna is the wing that will take pilots from their first flights to completions. The Luna’s reflex profile creates a simple balance of speed and performance making it perfect for exploring the world.


Designer's notes

With the Luna we focused on the wing’s easy inflation, fun maneuverability, stability, and top speed. We believe we have found a great combination for paramotoring.


I wanted to make a wing that would be easy to launch and have a short tale off distance but also fast and stable for cruising.

I designed a relatively large size of 27m2 flat area and added a reflex section with long trimmers. I found the large surface area of the wing gives early lift and trimmers out we get excellent stability at speed. It is just a easy wing under power.
