Any topics related to paragliding, and acro flying.
What do you think about Rush 4 and Rush 5 used like freestyle wings ?
What are the differences ? We know the rush 4 Is a nice freestyle wing, Just see what Pal Takats do with this Wing. Is the same for the Rush 5 ?
Thanks !

No week tickets, no day tickets. Ascent 11€, descent (if necessary) 20€.
I am trying to go through all the possible things that might happen and what the appropriate response is. I am unsure what to do in the following situation (which I realize is a pretty severe fuckup and you should prevent getting in this situation):
Twisted autorotation, you have thrown both reserves and they were both eaten by the wing. No base harness, just a normal acro harness.
In our sport the shorthand is to use wing loading to equalize across different pilot/wing sizes. So, a 113kg AUW pilot on a 24m wing can expect roughly the same behavior as a 80kg AUW pilot on a 17m wing. They both have a wing loading of 4.7.
My question for you guys that exist in a community of pilots is, "What are the differences?"
I'd guess the smaller wing/pilot has an easier time getting his wing moving for something like a misty flip. Maybe the bigger pilot find the wing's mass gives him more time to catch a surge? I'm guessing though.
We are few who are flying freestyle in Iceland and we are working hard for making acro easier to do here. Now we have our own tow winch and access to one other winch. We do now have a boat for towing over a lake, see here

Our dream is to make acro more popular among other pilots in Iceland so would you people be interested in acro festivals in Iceland?
We can make it happen but we need more acro pilots to show up.
Hope to hear what you think.
Best regards Björn
Hi everyone,
I’m the new Avasport dealer for France! Unfortunately 2 weeks ago a parcel with a Cutaway harness was stolen ( lost ) from the delivery company DPD in the capital of Hungary, Budapest, which is just scandalous! The parcel had to be delivered in France, and as you may know, Avasport provides personalised colours, and this one had a new fabric used on, so it’s kind of unique!
So my request is, if any one gets a juicy offer about a black & red Cutaway with a specific bottom fabric (you just can’t miss it )please contact me .
