A glider exactly for you…
The P28 is built for advanced, ambitious paragliding students and occasional recreational pilots who demand maximum safety. The pivotal task in this paraglider design is to bring safety, handling and performance in the right ratio for the respective pilot group. This is why the P28 is suitable for you, because we have found the perfect mix. By the way, the wing also looks potent and sexy!
From the beginning on…
The P28 will not stress you during the launch. We believe that we have the perfect level of pitch stability. Even from the very first launches you will know that the P28 is built just for you.
Understanding provides familiarity…
Despite your lack of experience as a paragliding student you have unconsciously high demands for safety, handling and flight performance. Through the progressively increasing control pressures you are always in clear communication with the P28. The direct feedback via the brakes shows you how things are. The P28 also loves the sportive flight style; it will climb steeply upward in the centre of the thermal through stronger application of the brakes. By flying in this more aggressive style, you can very easily stay ahead and above of other pilots in the thermal. Its passive safety level allows you to just enjoy the flying without having to worry about the wing.
…and familiarity leads to self-confidence and efficiency
The P28 teaches you to actively fly in the safest way, from which you will profit throughout your entire flying career. The P28 forgives an excessively passive flying style through its extremely good-natured behaviour.
You don’t have to worry about the P28’s performance; it is certainly amongst the best of its class and will provide you with lots of pleasure on your first cross country flights.
Unique designs also count…
Our especially designed PAF III leading edge will capture your attention immediately. What’s more, the line construction- completely new for this class - with load diversification close to the cover is an expression of innovation and competence in the areas of research and development. In the process, the 3 levels are divided into 5 levels, leading to a small amount of stress per suspension mount with low line consumption.
The detailed, well thought out material mix guarantees lifespan and reliability. Ribs are made of heavier weight diagonally stiff nylon fabric in contrast to the lighter weight upper and lower surfaces. The upper suspension lines and the brake lines are made of robust Dyneema, whereas the main lines are made of very stiff Technora HMA (High Molecular Aramid). This material mix and high quality of workmanship guarantee a long lifespan with consistent flight behaviour.
The right P28 for you…
The overlapping between the two middle sizes of the overall four sizes amounts to 15 instead of 5 kg. This makes it possible for a majority of pilots to find the right size for their preferences and conditions. The larger ML for those who like it quieter or often fly in weak conditions, and the smaller SM for pilots who seek zippiness and agility or are at home in stronger conditions. The P28 is available in four sizes and four different colour combinations.
