Basket Items: , Basket Value:

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

We deal with all leading manufactures - if you don't see the wing you want here contact us for details.

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.

Golden II

Paragliding at its best captures the true spirit of freedom and adventure. To enjoy the thrills, you need a paraglider that not only offers top performance but also security which can be relied on in all flying situation

Characteristics

Through the use of v-rib technology along with careful attention to sail-tension-balance the Golden II is both light and strong. The line concept with progressive diameters reduces both weight and drag and helps to reduce tangles on launch. An easy launch character complements the feeling of progressive and communicative handling in the air. The control forces required are light and precise at normal flying speeds and increase strongly towards the stall point. Golden II has a high passive safety margin with excellent manoeuvrability and good speed for a DHV1-2 type glider. Apart from being comfortable in lively conditions Golden II also maintains good performance and feeling in weaker conditions a feature so important to get the most out of your flying.

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 explorer
Gin Zulu explorerBack to top

The safe intermediate glider of the range, designed to travel and trek.
The Zulu Explorer is a redesigned version of the Zulu, the « off-road » wing, with lightweight materials and more performance.
An optimum mix of the latest materials has been chosen with one objective: to be easy to use, durable, compact and lightweight. Your glider is lighter and packs smaller, but has the performance to fly long distances easily.
The lightest materials available have been utilised where durability and ease of use allow. In other areas we have chosen materials which are lighter than normal, but not extreme. A different top surface cloth, 12mm webbing risers and sleeved lines throughout make the glider easy to handle on the ground.


The Zulu Explorer is so compact it is delivered with our 90 litre lightweight rucksack, which has space for your lightweight harness and other flying gear, but doesn’t completely fill the back of your car! No more excess luggage travelling by plane too.

The Zulu Explorer is the perfect tool to discover the world, or your own wild areas. You can easily fly long XC’s with excellent performance for a DHV1-2 glider and great handling.
To explore you need to feel safe and at one with your equipment. The Zulu Explorer has an easy take off and is easy to manage in rough conditions.

Although the glider is compact and light, our latest technology is built in for more passive safety and comfort in flight.
One of the best feelings, as well as one of the best reasons to fly a high performance paraglider from Gin Gliders, is the very good pitch control. The practical result is a safer feel with more performance!
Getting that feeling and performance is easy when designing a high performance wing but very hard to achieve in an intermediate or entry-level glider.
Enter the next evolution in glider design - The Pitch Control System

An easy or intermediate paraglider designed with the "Pitch Control System" in combination with the "Keel System" has a completely different feel and behaviour in straight flight than other gliders.
When making transitions on cross country flights the new era of Gin Gliders fly more like high performance gliders with less pitch movement, which equals more efficiency. Flying into a head wind or through turbulence the efficiency really shines and gets you there higher without pushing the speed bar too far or feeling nervous.

Discover the world with the new Zulu Explorer from Gin Gliders. Where will you take it?

The CHILI is a stunning top end DHV 1-2 sport glider with incredible handling, exceptional performance and impeccable manners!

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!
