Sky Country Evolution-X: EN D paraglider with aspect ratio of 7.3

Sky Country claim the Evolution-X is the first ever paraglider with an aspect ratio over 7 to achieve EN certification

Sky Country are proud to unveil their new serial class paraglider, the Evolution-X, which they say is the first wing with an aspect ratio of over 7 ever to be certified.

The 24 m2 size was passed at EN D last month, and in fact the only D it received in the tests was for symmetric front collapse with accelerator.

The company reduced the speed bar travel for the certified model, but they will also offer the Evolution-X with a competition riser set with trimmers, to competition pilots. With this setup the glider flies at top speed of 70 km/hr.

The wing is a classic three-line design, and has unsheathed lines throughout.
