Hello, I like to give you a quick update on the latest news from Flow Paragliders.
FREEDOM (EN B) We are pleased to announce the release of our high EN B glider, Freedom, which has officially been certified and is ready to order.
There's a pre-release batch in stock and the colours available are the ones published on the website. The stock is limited. We will publish the new colours scheme in a couple of days on our website.
FUSION We are close to finishing the development of the Fusion. However, we are looking at approximately 2 months from now for the glider to be available.
The delay is due to the glider being simply too solid and hard to collapse to fit the current EN C standards, on full accelerated flight only. At trim speed the glider fits certification criteria beautifully.
The Fusion has an AR of 6.35 and is a hybrid 2-3 liner and has a very efficient rear riser steering, very similar to 2 liner rear riser steering. We've found the performance to be outstanding for the class, especially in active air and real life scenario. Handling on thermals is nice, the glider turns on dime and brake pressure is medium. It's build with semi-light weight materials, mainly Porcher Skytex 32g both internally and internally.
FUTURE PROJECTS FOR 2019 Another glider we would like to finish before the end of the year is a revolutionary 2-liner with a AR of 6.6 - we will announce as soon we have more news about it. There's been talks about the reintroduction of collapse lines for the C class, so this might come handy for this glider. We will see.
So far the new from Flow Paragliders, fly safely and have a great season.
