Flying Fever






Basket Items: , Basket Value:

This category is large with low and high end gliders offering different levels of performance and stability.

It is very important to honestly assess your current flying level (not the level you hope to attain) and choose a glider to match. Choosing a higher performance wing before you are ready will often result in loss of confidence and airtime and may result in an accident.

You must also assess how much time you will be able to dedicate to flying and what your experience level is phone to discuss your choice and we can help to match you with a wing and arrange a test flight.


Sol Ellus 2
Sol Ellus 2Back to top

Ellus 2 is the successor of our "best seller" Ellus was the first SOL paraglider certificated by DHV. Its approval rate is confirmed by over 1,200 canopies currently flying in 65 countries. To succeed Ellus we developed a paraglider that has more performance, comfort and is easier to handle.

Many hours were spent in developing and testing so that you, as a pilot, would be able to fly just as much.

PILOT AND BEHAVIOR DURING THE FLIGHT

Ellus 2 is a DHV 1-2 suitable to both beginner and experienced pilots, who want a good performance paraglider with high safety. The objective of this paraglider is to offer a world of possibilities to the pilot, from the practicing stage to distance flights.

Ellus 2 has a high passive safety and even with a basic knowledge the pilot will have many enjoyable hours of flight.


Following SOL's tradition Ellus 2 brings improvements in performance, handling and safety. Everything was conducted in order to make it easy to fly and safe with an increased performance.

DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION

Ellus 2 is innovative amongst other paragliders in its class for presenting a bigger aspect ratio. This combination between real and projected measurements results in a stable paraglider, easy to handle and with an excellent performance. Both weak and strong conditions can be enjoyed with more comfort.

SOL Ellus 2 incorporates new technologies developed by SOL which are used in the aerobatic canopies and in competitions:

HAR - High Aspect Ratio: an ideal combination between surface and projected surface – minimising drag and maximising glide.

FHT - Full Hibrid Tecnology:a hybrid utilisation of *4* types of fabric – combining durability and resistance with less weight and low deformation;

LT - Laser Tecnology: Molds cut by Laser equipment.

Gin Zulu

DHV 1-2 - released 2006

"off-road" wing...
The essential know-how of Gin Gliders is concentrated in this wing, the youngest member of the family. The Zulu is the <<off-road>> wing..

To fly 100%...
A skilful mixture of glide and handling, intended for pilots with modest experience or the old thermal hunters who never tire of flight. Whenever we fly, we often meet different and varying aerological conditions..
If you're uncomfortable, you lose your confidence easily and with it a loss of motivation which leads you directly to land.
To fly 100% in all situations, the Zulu instils trust, comfort and enables you to enjoy your flight.

GIN Keel system...

the Zulu comes with a new and striking design feature:
the Gin Keel System was developed to enhance directional stability by using a keel pocket with centralized line attachment points. The new system also means: more precise piloting with weight shift, increased sensations in thermalling, easy handling without yaw movement, increased pitch stability and comfort in flight.

Skywalk Chilli
Skywalk ChilliBack to top

The CHILI is a stunning top end DHV 1-2 sport glider with incredible handling, exceptional performance and impeccable manners! Our best selling 1-2 at this time (Aug 07), and not surprising if you read what the independent reviewers have to say. Read the review here

With the new high end high end freerider CHILI, skywalk serves a truly spicy dish!

The ingredients are: a profile derived from race carver POISON, 8 JET FLAPS that make staying up easy and handling that is of the finest.

The CHILI does not replace the TEQUILA, no, it completes the range upwards. Therefore it is not a glider for beginners, but a great choice for downgraders from the DHV 2 Class or upgraders from the DHV 1 or 1-2 class.

The handling of the freerider CHILI purposely reminds of the legendary sportster CAYENNE - direct, manoeuverable, turn-eager!

The performance of the CHILI is unmistakeable: many higher-classified gliders will have trouble delivering this performance...

A glider for cross-country flying, for thermalling and for pure flying bliss, true to the skywalk slogan:

More joy of flight!

The Chili XL is also certified for tandem use!
