The Rush was created for the performance pilot who needs DHV 1-2 security. With a higher aspect ratio and more cells, the Rush is closer to a DHV2 in performance while remaining well within the boundaries of the DHV 1-2 class. It features sportier, more dynamic handling than the Buzz, along with a higher speed range.

The Rush is Cross Country Performance with safety and stability. It is a top-end DHV 1-2 with all of the ingredients for long flights; all it needs is a pilot to lead the way. The Rush’s launch characteristics are benign for a wing with such performance and dynamic character, and pilots will find that the inflation is simple to control even in higher winds. The wing likes to bite into thermals and the handling is direct and well coordinated, which makes coring even the tightest or most disorganized lift a pleasure. Feedback is transmitted to the pilot in comfortable amounts, and it is feedback that the pilot can understand and use, not just turbulence or noise.

The Rush is for the adventurous, experienced DHV 1-2 pilot. It is a glider that has all of the performance needed for long Cross Country flights, including a wide speed range and an efficient glide on speed bar. The Rush may be less suitable for pilots who do not fly very often, or who have less experience.

Gin Gliders

Don't follow the crowd - fly Gin!

Gin Bolero III DHV 1/EN B

The DHV 1 glider from Gin, the Bolero III, is an easy to fly wing in which the principal design consideration was to give pilots a glider which is easy to fly, comfortable and of course, extremely safe. Gin dedicated one and a half years to developing this amazing wing; hundreds of hours were flown on prototypes until it was absolutely right, as imagined by Gin Seuk Song, the veteran designer and founder of Gin gliders.

Gin's Pitch Control System and Keel System - unique acceleration system for increased feedback

• an easy take off with light inflation • a flat turn with an outstanding sink rate • more precision in turns and a more 'compact' feeling wing • more efficient in thermals • the canopy has been cut for a precise profile • 3 main A lines • E85A Porcher New Skytex fabric, offering high performance and durability, and reduced fabric weight, improved launch, security and re-inflation • water-based and environmentally friendly coating • PARAMOTOR DULV RATED•

Gin Yeti 08 DHV 1
Ultra-Lightweight Paraglider

Over the past few years a demand has grown for an utra-light or mountain glider : the Yeti is the DHV 1 answer!
The R&D Team developed this glider in collaboration with GIN Team pilots Will Gadd and Stefan Bocks using the Red Bull Cross-Alps event as a testing ground. With the experience gained and a nostalgia memory for the lightweight bags carried in the early days of paragliging, the team developed a glider  weighing less than 4 kg for their own private use and for a few GIN Team pilots.

Refining and perfecting from this start, concentrating on small details, searching for new materials, developing new assembly techniques for the lines, panels, reinforcements and risers. Testing the strength of each material, and each assembly, making hundreds of flight tests and thousand of load tests, until the goal was reached - a real work of art at just 3.7kg (XS size) ... The Yeti is made by hand, with each unit assembled by one person, and requires many hours in manufacturing.

The Yeti is built using a totally new light fabric from PORCHER, with an environmentally friendly coating (9017 E68A). Lines are heat treated and pre-stretched from LIROS. Risers are constructed from dyneema webbing. All other materials used in the construction; tapes, reinforcements and connectors etc. are chosen to achieve the highest performance to weight ratio possible.

The Yeti is essentially a very lightweight version of the Bolero Plus. Hence the safety and in flight behaviour are benign, with a bit more speed and more dynamic handling than the Bolero Plus. In brief, a really enjoyable glider to fly - The Bolero Plus has already gained an excellent reputation one of the best gliders in its category, and the Yeti retains its superb characteristics, but its ultra-light weight makes inflation even better! To enable take off from steep slopes or snow, attachment points have been added to the top surface to fix the glider to the ground.

Objective achieved  : 5kg, ready to fly...

THE YETI RUCKSACK ALSO DOUBLES AS A COMBINED LIGHTWEIGHT MOUNTAIN HARNESS!

Gin Zulu Explorer DHV-1/2
A great new paraglider from the Gin stable ... an "off-road" wing...

The essential know-how of Gin Gliders is concentrated in the Zulu, and it's made to fly 100%...

A splendid mixture of glide and handling, intended for pilots with modest experience or old thermal hunters who never tire of flight. Designed to cope with different and varying aerological conditions. If you're uncomfortable, you lose 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 and comfort and enables you to enjoy your flights. The Zulu incorporates a striking new 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, and increased pitch stability and comfort in flight.

The Zulu has DHV 1-2 certification in all 4 sizes, and DULV certification for paramotor use in sizes S, M and L with special trim risers, which can be delivered as an option.

Gin Sprint DHV 1-2 / EN B

More than a year in development for Gin and his factory test pilots led to this high performance wing, certified DHV2.

100s of hours in flight and 100s of kilometres of cross country in various countries well known for XC potential: Texas, Mongolia, Switzerland, France, Austria and others well known for their difficult conditions: Japan, Korea, Portugal. The objective for Gin was to create a new high performance wing which is able to swallow the kilometres quickly, safely and easily - a real XC Wing, with competition performance.

• easy inflation in all conditions • simple to manage during take off • in flight the pilot and the Zoom quickly become one • from the first turns in thermals, the feel of the glider is easy to understand - how to handle weightshift and brakes to incline the wing for the best efficiency quickly becomes second nature • the Zoom boasts the GIN Touch; the trademark of our designer which makes our gliders different •

Airwave Sport 4 DHV-1/2
Pedigree Design Background - Outstanding performance for its class.

The feel - As soon as you fly the Sport 4 the main thing you feel is safety and stability, with an ability to float to the top of the stack without effort….. Accessible performance.
Sink Rate - When designing the new Sport 4 we started by asking Sport 1, 2, and 3 pilots what they needed most in the glider. Was it better glide or more speed or more safety or stability. By far what people appreciated in the Sport 3 above all was the ‘easily accessible performance’. Already with the Sport 3’s ‘auto thermalling’ handling we were on the right track. This gave pilots the ability to get a good sink rate out of the glider without working too hard and we have further developed this idea on the Sport 4. This idea of easily accessible performance with an emphasis on sink rate is what we have worked most on in the design of the Sport4.
Roll Stability - The Sport 4 is an evolution of the Sport 3 in many ways but it also has a lot of new features as well. It has one less cell , 52 instead of 53 cells. The middle cell has been removed to give more feeling of stability though the harness, which is consistent with our CSS design concept that runs thoughtout the range of Airwave gliders, but we have opted for more stability to make the wing more accessible.
3 or 4 rows of lines? - In recent years there has been a shift from 4 rows of lines to 3 rows of lines in high performance gliders. In fact Airwave was the first brand to certify a 3 line glider with the DHV in the Magic 4. So when we developed the Sport 4 we also investigated the idea of having 3 rows. During the development of the Sport4 we had protos flying with 3 rows as well as 4 rows of lines. Both flew nicely and passed the certification requirements. However the three row glider was not as easy to fly as the four row version. So for the production version of the Sport 4 we have designed the wing with 4 rows of lines in the center of the wing and 3 rows in the tip. Thus enabling us to get the best of both worlds.
The Sport 4 has only 3 risers which enables us to reduce line length even more reducing drag and giving better overall performance.
Hybrid Diagonals - The Sport 4 is the first of the Sport series of gliders to incorporate hybrid diagonals in the sail. This concept was designed to improve stability at speed as well as low speed performance in my competition glider.
Slightly higher aspect ratio - The AR of the Sport 4 has been increased from 5.15 on the Sport 2 and 3 to 5.35 on the Sport 4. This is a very modest increase in aspect ratio, and the other features of design of the Sport 4 mean that we can get better stability and safety from this higher aspect ratio than we had on the Sport 3. Enabling us to achieve more performance with better safety.
The Sport 4 is a middle of the range 1-2 rated glider.
