UP Kantega XC (Video)

·

Thoroughbred heritage
The new Kantega XC is the latest branch on the new UP family tree that started with the Trango 3 and was followed by the Summit XC. It uses the same Hybrid Synergy Airfoil as the Summit XC and has inherited this wings’ amazing performance, but it combines the performance increase with a very forgiving behaviour in all situations. We think that this is THE approach to paraglider design – we want you to feel good about your passion for free flight!


The Kantega XC at a glance:
  • Summit XC sibling, with great climbing, gliding, handling and safety characteristics

  • Incredible speed range with a top speed of +53km/h – this translates to 15km/h increase on the speed bar!

  • Top performance, better than anything else currently available in the class

  • Launches like a school glider, only better!

  • Sits squarely in the middle of the LTF 1-2 class

  • Relatively lightweight without compromising anything in terms of longevity

  • New optimised speed system

  • Optimised line layout, with unsheathed lines in the upper cascades

  • New “Load Management” D-line layout to transfer variable loads more effectively in turbulent air
  • Further UP specific features:

  • - Hybrid Synergy Airfoil (HSA)
    - Brake Tension System (BTS)
    - Airfoil Stabilising System (ASS)
    - Load Management D-line geometry (LMD)
