Equipment

Hey,

Anyone knows how this wing performs more than just SATs and wingovers?

It seems like a pretty nice entry level wing that you can also thermal with, especially that a Blacklight Freestyle version will be released. Same as serial, just stronger materials in some parts...

Hi,

I am flying the Ava harness (by independence) and its leg straps tend to loosen after a couple of steps and then slip below the knees ...

Do you know any tricks to use this harness for groundhandling? I was thinking about adding velcro to keep it firm or shortening the straps to keep them from slipping down. Any experience?

Thanks,
Geri

Hi all there!!
I'm choosing my new harness and have a good offer for this one (200 euro less than the Supair Acro3).
The problem is that I've no idea about other pilot´s impressions, so...

Anyone has experience with the Independence Acro Harness??
Could you please tell me something about it???

I´m just gone out from the nest in acro (SATs, first dirty helis and mistys so far) and I think I'll not need smoke bomb attachment nor fancy quick drying materials, so I really focus on the handling and durability.

Hello,
I am a pilot with some little experience in acro (sat, wingover,assym spirals,Spins, dynamic stalls). I fly a dhv 1-2 wing right now. I want to buy an acro glider for the next season and train over water. Can you tell what would be a good glider for me ?

I am thinking Thriller 22 or Nikita 3 22 . I weigh around 87 kgs with all my gear (Naked:65 Kgs). I want to learn Assym Sats, Helico.

I want an acro glider that is easy to learn right now but I could reduce the size later on ( to make it more dynamic)

Thanks,
-F

I reduced the brake line almost 15cm from the standard point. Brakes were too long and the wing did not turn as I wish. Now the length is perfect for wingovers, sat, asymmetric sat, looping. But few days ago I followed a Siv course where I tryed full stall. the wing were too reactive. Lots of time I felt near the glider after having released the brakes. Tryed it without half wrap on brake (as I was used to fly) and the wing was still reactive (although less than before).

Hello!

I've been flying for just about a year now and got about 60h in the air where more then 45h is with paramotor. I don't got access to a big mountain so flying motor is my best option to go fly.

I'm doing some wingovers, loops, asym.360 right now and will attend a SIV course next week and will probably also learn SAT and Helico. I've done the entry of SAT but exited before going into it and got the timing pretty good without locking in the spiral but I pulled back out right away as I'm a bit scared of overdoing it and spin the glider and get a twist.
