SPORTSTER

EN - C

The new Sport class generation by Independence!

At the Sportster our designer team used for the first time flexible synthetic rods in the profile nose. This technology raises the profile loyalty and as well as the stability of the leading edge. The advantages of this technology are superb take off behaviors, improved stability on accelerated flying and during turbulences. The risen profile loyalty improves the aerodynamic and with it substantially the performance of the Sportster. In combination with a high number of cells (62), competition lines, thin risers and a aspect ratio of 6,0 it was possible to transfer this huge potential on this sporty LTF/EN C paraglider

The Sportster fascinates not only by his fantastic glide, he is playing his strengths also in thermals. With the typical fine, direct and uncomplicated independence - handling he can be turned easy and efficient in thermals. The Sportster provides the pilot immediately a good feeling also in bumpy situations

However, the Sportster was conceived for experienced and ambitious XC pilots he is also well suited for upward climbing pilots from the LTF/EN B segment. In all three available sizes the Sportster is LTF/EN C classified and covers a weight range of 70 kg up to 130 kg
