And this from very small surfaces already certified EN-A (18m2 flat) or B (14, 16m2 flat). Just use our tools on this page to find the one just for you!The SUper SImple glider runs into its 4th generation. Development prolonged with tons of innovations like the BC-control and ratings in the EN-A. And still offering its now infamous flying sensation. I am stoked to have been able to redefine this glider and widen the usability of the wing again.I remember the first generation of the SuSi which had no certification (only load-tested). I built it only for myself because I wanted a wing for hike&fly which should be light, simple but performing.Today it still offers its typical flying sensations, it’s more robust than ever, and pilots all around the world can rely on the SuSi like they do since so many years!Stephan StieglerDesignerWhat’s new?Improving the SuSi recipe, the glider feels more balanced overall. The starting behaviour is even improved (yes!), rolling is more controlled. Full bar, the canopy has become more stable even with a glider being faster. It got a fully working BC-riser control system over light or Superlight risers– it’s by the way a matter of weight or comfort which ones you use, it’s up to your choice. And, in the standard loadings we still achieved an EN-A rating (on most sizes), so newcomers to the sport can confidently fly the SuSi as their first glider. Construction & Features– Double coated Skytex, doubled seams, etching tape on edges and new nose guard patches: robustness is the key.– Unsheathed Aramid but color-coded lines! Solidity has never been so easy to untangle.– Shark nose with un bendable Nitinol rods not only to save weight and increase robustness, but also to help for a more compact folding… To slip it more easily into your tiny rucksack.– On the leading edge, ground attachment loops help to prevent the paraglider from slipping on a steep and/or slippery slope (snow).– Seamless razor edge with mini ribs: all seams are internal for a cleaner surface.– Choice of comfy 12mm aramid or Superlight dyneema risers.– New BC riser control system for better control and stability at high speeds.How to describe SuSi 4……in one word?
