Hi all - Shortly stepping up to something a little more aggressive now that I've got a little more experience (and my PPG license hehe).This thing is in excellent shape - have flown a handful of times, mostly quick sled rides - and loved every minute of it. IMHO, this thing is perfect for learning. Super stable, decent responsiveness, and reassuring in it's safety. I mean, the thing is a tank, nothing bad is going to happen to you.(Good review can be seen if you search for ojovolador + discus on Google). Note that this is a size large, so the weight range is 95-115 kg fully loaded.Here for questions if you have them!- Peter***From the Swing Website***DISCUS - for future expertsComfort and safety. With the new DISCUS, SWING responds to the latest requirements for wings for beginners and low airtime pilots. A glider that you can trust 100 % right from the beginning. The elegant wing is designed for beginners, leisure, and low airtime pilots, where very high passive safety is most important. Due to the EN / LTF -A certification, the DISCUS is also fully suitable for your first training flights and convinces with a very easy launch, flight and landing behavior and amazing performance for its class.In the design of the DISCUS the latest technologies and findings from the upper classes have been incorporated. These include 3D-shaping of the leading edge and mini ribs on the trailing edge. Only three rows of lines to the risers also make the take off preparations super easy.The pleasant, balanced handling, damping and flight characteristics, and the large speed range make the DISCUS also suitable for your first cross country-adventures and will inspire you, as a future expert, for a long time after your first training flights.Constructive & Technical Highlights3D -shaping of the leading edgemini ribs on the trailing edge3 -Liner Technologyhighest quality standardsoptimized canopy tensionsreefing brake system on the trailing edgediagonal ribslatest calculation and simulation methodsoptimized material mix ( canopy/lines)Properties of the DISCUSonly three main lines make for an easy start preparationvery simple launch behaviorvery high level of passive safetyvery forgiving, long brake travelpleasantly balanced handlingcomfortable dampening and flight characteristics for stress-free flightssimple circling &centering of thermalsWide speed range -> safety margin in stronger windssuitable for cross country flightssmooth acceleratorvery high stability of the canopyvery easy landing behaviorapproved for winchingdurability and low weight ( only 5.5 kg in size M )[img]
