X-Alps 2009
Now in stock - $45 CAD
As always, the film is produced to an impeccable standard. Professionally produced is an understatement, this film uses top end technology, the likes of which you’ll not have seen in a paragliding film before.
But this is no ordinary paragliding film. This is the Red Bull X-Alps. So the camera is always moving, hurtling you through the Alps as though you were in a spaceship, immersing you in high definition scenery, so real you can almost feel the cold, then dropping you in on the agony and ecstasy of the athletes, so real you can almost smell the blood, sweat and tears as slog their way along the entire Alpine chain.
As for the storyline? We’ll, it’s the story of the best Red Bull X-Alps race ever! Maurer’s mythical flights that saw him swing along the course like a monkey through the jungle, Hofer’s guile and cunning that despite two previous titles was just never enough, Cocanea’s frustration that led to his supporter quitting, his reserve deployment and eventual disqualification, and the 12 day epic adventure race that saw men swatted from the sky like flies and crying in the night as their feet ached like they’d been stung by bees.
Truly awesome scenery, incredible up-close flying footage shot from helicopter and POV camera angles, and insight into a world of pain few of us would dare contemplate. Essential viewing!

XCertina
Bag Mk II It’s an accepted fact nowadays that the way you
pack and store your paraglider directly affects its longevity
and performance. Careless packing creases and damages the
crucial Mylar sections that reinforce the internal cell walls
at the front of the wing. These sections are crucial in forming
the clean leading edge profile that your glider needs to get
the maximum performance out of its design. Concertinaing your
wing is the surest way to protect the integrity of your leading
edge, but until now it’s been an awkward and time consuming
task that is difficult on your own and almost impossible in
a strong wind.
The new XCertina Bag is the quick and easy solution to the
problem. It’s quicker than the conventional packing
system and retains the longevity and performance of your wing
over time. It’s the easiest way to pack up in a strong
wing, and better still it’s the simplest and quickest
way to unpack and get ready to fly.
Sizes S and L available.

Skyline wing - Falcon
The brand-new low-end
Intermediate wing Falcon finished homologation test flights
(LTF B, 1-2, EN B in progress) in all 4 sizes (24, 26, 27,

flying.
The new profile of the
Falcon provides the high speed range and the high performance
– setting state-of-the-art in the Intermediate glider
design!
First work is already done, Patrick
Berod did first test-flights in Mauritius with a prototype
of the AIR FORCE II. “We set benchmarks in safety
with our four DHV-1-gliders with the AFS-system, the G-FORCE
and MORPHEUS are unrivaled in acro-gliding, and now we will
address the market for high-performance competition and
XC-gliders” Strobl says.
