With the season about to really get underway, Swing’s new speed riding paraglider, the Spitfire, will be ready to replace the Savage in December. It will be made in five sizes: 9, 11, 13, 15, and a 7, reserved for Swing Speed Team members only.
Manuel Croci heads up the Swing speed riding development team, supported by Daniel Kalberer and Daniel Kofler. They have worked to increase the glide range of the Spitfire over the Savage, and to improve its dive and ride characteristics.
A reversible Speedriding harness, the Brave 2, is to be produced by Gin for Swing.
