Advance ALPHA 8 Classic Paraglider

Cutting-edge technology for an exceptional flight experience

The new ALPHA 8benefits from technical innovations that improve both performance and flight comfort:

A larger rope at the ends reduces the stall point, extends the brake travel, and increases stability.
A redesigned profile: Optimized pressure distribution along the chord length provides extremely damped pitching, ensuring smooth flight and better performance.
An improved leading edge: Thanks to a new development method, the leading edge has fewer folds, resulting in significantly improved aerodynamic performance.
More balanced handling: Reduced lift at the wing tips minimizes leverage, resulting in an even more stable, enjoyable, and forgiving flight.

These advances make the ALPHA 8 an essential choice for pilots seeking safety, reliability, and an enhanced flying experience.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is a high-performance, safe EN-A paraglider suitable for my intensive training?

▼

This model is designed to offer maximum safety while remaining very accessible for your progression. The thicker line at the ends significantly pushes back the stall point and lengthens the brake travel, giving you more leeway to learn your moves with confidence. The redesigned profile distributes pressure more evenly across the line, greatly reducing pitching and limiting sudden reactions. You'll enjoy a very forgiving wing, ideal for practicing on the ground and in the air with a high level of tolerance.

For a stable and forgiving EN-A beginner paraglider, what does a robust Classic wing really offer?

▼

The main advantage of this Classic model is its robustness, designed for sustained use, particularly in schools. The materials and construction are optimized to withstand numerous inflations on the ground, repeated handling, and training sessions without deteriorating quickly. This resistance allows you to practice often, even on sometimes abrasive terrain, while maintaining the wing's flight qualities. You therefore benefit from a paraglider that retains its performance over time, securing your investment throughout your discovery and improvement phase.
