Equipment

Hello everybody. Please excuse me bad English. At the moment I´m searching for a new acro wing. But First some Information about me. I started flying in 2001. At the moment I´m working as an paragliding Instructor and my wing is a 4 year old Magic 3 S. Takeoff weight is about 90 kg.

With the Magic I am able to fly high wingovers, asymmetric spirals, loops and of course the sat. I´m also working on the deep stall and the helico by using a Flite (Airwave DHV 1) because I have to do most of the training over ground.

I am currently flying a P44 XS wing and though I love it in the mountains...it's not my fave for acro. I'm a beginner acro pilot so I'm not looking for a radical wing. Most of my friends that started flying acro did so with a DHV 1-2 in a XS or S. My dry weight is 50 kg, so that option isn't feasable. Any recommendations?

Hello Commuity,

I'm new here and looking for information about freestyle gliders.
I was on several S.I.V. and freestyle trainings and now I' m totaly infected. Therefore I'm looking for a more or less save and moderate paraglider. I found for example the P360 or the burn, but I could not found realy detailed information.
Can someone give me some advices which glider is advisable for a beginner in the freestyle comunity?
The glider should be able the come up in the thermal also...

To my person:

any comments / info re Airwave Sport 1 (condition as new) for starting Acro, what will it do and not do?

thanks

hi,

thinking what brake system is the best and more!
elastic band and free brakes or locked with pully!? seen some acro pilots put the pullys higher up on the risers and have like 15 cm line to the pullys, so what is positiv and negativ with different brake systems!!!??
Im new in the acro world and want to fix a nice system on my glider:)

so "locked" VS "free" brakes with elastic band!!

Just wanted to say thanks to Pál
My Dbag arrived today. It is very nice.

It was a last minute request and Pál went out of his way to get it to me fast (I have a competition tomorrow).
He was lightning fast with the email and just an overall easy guy to deal with.

Thanks
Jim
