Porcher Sport are working on a revolutionary lightweight paragliding cloth, to be prototyped in the first paragliders this winter. The Skytex 27 g/m2 double coated material will be as durable as the heavier 40 and 45 g/m2 versions.

A 40g/m2 version of the Evolution range is also now available commercially. Its coating is particularly resistant to becoming porous.
