Paragliding

We bring you a detailed report from Daniel Crespo in video format on the Impress 4, the long awaited new high performance XC harness of the Swiss brand that was introduced as preview in the last Coupe Icare in France.

The Brazilian brand proposes the designation XC Sport CCC for this new wing, claiming that it is suitable for pilots who feel confident flying an EN.C paraglider, since it promises comparable safety and handling, but with greater performance.

The third Pi generation, the most versatile design of the Swiss firm, incorporates two new sizes, 21 and 25, to its range of certified weights, and is even lighter and more compact than its predecessors, announces the brand. With the incorporation of the new sizes, the Pi3 now offers six options of different light gliders for weights ranging from 50 to 120 kg.

The world’s toughest adventure race has come to an end with the clock officially stopped at 11:30am on Friday June 23, just a few hours after Japanese athlete Emoto Yuji became the 23rd athlete to make goal. It’s been a historic and record-breaking edition of the Red Bull X-Alps, with Chrigel Maurer champion for the 8th consecutive time.
