AirDesign in aller Munde!

Dies ist die Geschichte zweier Freunde, die ein Ziel haben: die Gleitschirme zu bauen, mit denen sie schon immer fliegen wollten. Dies ist die Geschichte von Stephan Stiegler und Martin Gostner, die ein österreichischer Journalist besuchte, um mit ihnen zu sprechen.. über´s Fliegen, eh klar!

Let's go on an adventure, would you?

Name of the project: ELBRUS 2024

Participants: Hugo Beguin (@hugo.dneuch), Niklas Konrad (@niklas_konrad), Vincent Morisetti (@vincentmorisetti) and Valérian Terraneo.

Accessories: bicycles, high spirits and two RONIN #bladerunnin

The story? Let's hear it from @vincentmorisetti
"On June 1st, we left Switzerland by bike, from Charmey in Gruyère to go towards Russia.
We reach the Simplon Pass, then the north of Italy which takes us to Slovenia, then Croatia. Further on, the long straights of Serbia and Bulgaria make us line up the kilometers. In the heat, we adapt our schedules because it is more than 40°C. On the counter of the 7th day of cycling, we have ridden in 6 different countries, what a pace! We ride between 200 and 250 km per day. Finally the flag of Turkey stands in front of us. This country and its people are fantastic, we love it.

Our path continues towards Georgia and finally the Caucasus. We do an acclimatization on Mount Kasbek at 5047m. The wind blows super strong at the top but we can still fly from the cabin at 3700m. It's amazing.
We continue our route to Russia. Two days later we are at the foot of Elbrus, 23 days of cycling later...

The ascent of Mount Elbrus is going well, despite the tourism and the installations that are too present. With our RONIN in our bags, Hugo and I have the unimaginable chance to take off from the summit. The summit of our adventure, the summit of Europe and the summit of Elbrus. It feels so unreal.

Thank you @mawitschi and AirDesign for the RONIN!"

Well-done guys, we cannot wait to see the movie of your incredible adventures!

Rise 5, Volt 5, Hero 2, Soar 2... The year 2024 was exceptional for us, full of creativity and innovation. The @coupeicare is the perfect place to celebrate the science of paragliding!

What's the schedule? We will be present on the South take-off with our full range of wings and harnesses at the "Icare test" Testival on Tuesday 17th and Wednesday 18th, September. Then, we will be more than happy to wear our lab coats to welcome you in our crazy laboratory in the Barish lodge during the "Icare expo" from Thursday 19th to Sunday 22nd. Oh and on Saturday evening, let’s celebrate paragliding science with cocktails and movie night! We cannot wait to spend some time with you in Saint-Hilaire. See you there!

Urban playgrounds and coastal vibes 🌊
@flydanielfly pushing the limits with the #Susi, proving that the city skyline and the beach are just as much a playground as the mountains.

Hero 2 - « Go big or go home »

That’s the motto of our light EN-D glider and that’s exactly what our friend and film-maker Jake Holland did heading to Pakistan last June. Here’s what he says about his trip there: “The first couple of clips are from the Charakusa valley flying next to Nayser Brakk pyramid formation which looks like the Egyptians could have built it! After there I spent the rest of the trip flying around the Hunza area. This year we ultimately never got the weather to achieve what we had really hoped for, however there were still many enjoyable moments in the sky flying and landing on these huge mountains ».

One week ago, our team pilot @francescamugianesi took-off from Castejón de Sos (Huesca, Aragon, Spain) and took advantage of the high ceilings and of her beloved Volt 5 #speedmachine to make a beautiful FAI triangle of 128.11 km, one of whose vertices was the famous Aneto, the highest point in the Pyrenees.
Establishing a female record for this take-off (while the biggest flight declared on #XContest is a FAI triangle of 163.30 km), Francesca said: "this flight was absolutely spectacular! I am so happy with the Volt 5. It offers good performance while keeping a comfortable safety margin. Moreover its small volume, light weight, and easiness to inflate offer a lot of agility in mountain terrain!".

Congratulations Francesca for this amazing flight! Keep it up 🙌
