D-Day! The @redbullxalps prologue takes place today!
And we are in the starting-blocks to follow our athletes @davidesassudelli and @hugosky07 flying the Hero XPed - No limits to exploration

The Hero XPed: a light EN-D glider designed for the X-Alps.
What about it? Well, first of all, forget your preconceptions. Take few seconds to imagine your ideal wing for hike-and-fly and bivy adventures. It should be light, performant and safe. Of course!
But... what if its glide gives you the chills?
What if its thermalling abilities leave you speechless?
What if pushing the speed-bar makes you uncontrollably grin?
Last but not least, what if you have never felt that confident under a light EN-D glider?
Yes, you've met #yourbestmate

Break your own rules! Broaden your horizons! Choose the Hero XPed #gamechanger

🌸 Spring kicked off with a bang.
From Ticino to the main ridge of the Alps, our pilots made the most of the first thermals of the season.
Long flights, new personal bests, and exciting beginnings — including the launch of our new XPed series.
Scroll through and get a glimpse of what spring looked like from above.
We’re already wondering: what will summer bring? 😉

🤓 Did you know?

The Hero 2 marked the return of AirDesign to the segment of EN-D gliders developed for hike-and-fly. But, now we're talking about the @redbullxalps! For a race of this magnitude, a completely new glider was needed.

With the Hero XPed, we take that one step further. It’s the lightest Hero ever created, yet still dependable in any situation.

The tension in the wing span has been improved to make it even more all-terrain in tough conditions while maintaining the right flexibility at the wingtips to preserve excellent floatation qualities when conditions weaken. The turning behavior has also evolved significantly to facilitate thermalling using the whole range of brakes while offering greater soaring abilities.

Contact your local dealer to test-fly it, the Hero XPed will become #yourbestmate

"Because light is right!"

We are always aiming at building lightweight gliders having durability and usability in mind. Our new XPed series takes one step further and aims to reduce everything to its minimum – with functionality and practicality. By making the SuSi more compact, lighter and much faster while keeping its DNA, we allow the pilots to go much further in all their projects. That’s why we call it XPed for Expeditions.

WELL DONE CHARLES! Second in the @bornestofly !

@charles_de_beaufort was looking for his hike-and-fly wing for the 2025 season. Shortly before the first event of the season, the BTF, Charles tested the Hero XPed #yourbestmate and fell in love!

The wing was ordered immediately, but the race was fast approaching. It doesn't matter, we'll lend him our demo wing.

And here's the result! We knew Charles was super-trained, we knew his potential as a pilot, and we glimpsed his potential on the ground, and well, in the air with the Hero XPed, it was a real blast!

We are deeply happy and proud! What a start for Charles and his Hero XPed! WELL DONE! And thank you for keeping us hooked on the live track!!

LiVi - the one and only
For sure, we could list its numerous qualities: exemplary take-off, great feeling in thermal, and excellent glide ratio among others. But the LiVi is more than the sum of its attributes. It’s got personality! With the LiVi you’ve got the right EN-B glider to express your own personality and make your own way. Just go for it!

Heading into the week-end with the Soar 2 #cloudhopper

"The first Soar has made so many pilots happy, its successor had big shoes to fill. By implementing new tricks (2.5 liner, new arch, two pairs of winglets…) while keeping its original DNA, we managed to create a glider that will fulfill the expectation of most pilots nowadays: rising superlight and landing with a huge smile." Stephan Stiegler, Designer
