First Look: AirDesign's UFO single-skin paraglider

The AirDesign UFO is a single-surface wing aimed at paraglider pilots heading out for hike-and-fly adventures. With EN-A certification in the larger sizes it is also suitable for beginners. Available in five sizes from 13m2 to 21m2 we took the 16m2 size for some hike-and-fly trips in the southern French Alps. Read the full review at bit.ly/3aabEmj

first class optical quality fabrication !

[@ozoneswiftak]

It whistles. Why not just put the other layer on the bottom? Saved one pound. Wow

[@TheGrundigg]

It is really a big difference, this weighs 1.5kg instead of 3 for a light paraglider and packs into a tiny tiny package. If you're not planning to fly all day, just want a hike up and fly down wing, this is awesome.

​​​​@@TheGrundigg Nope. Ozone Ultralite 4 weights about the same and it us double skin and flies significantly better than this single skin wing. Ozone Ultralite 4 is not only the same weight and flies better, but it is also safer (EN A)
