U-Turn Lightning 2: “honest middle-B”

Thursday 4 May, 2023

U-Turn have updated their “performance-focussed” lightweight paraglider, the Lightning 2 which they describe as an “honest EN-B”.

It has a flat aspect ratio of 5.8 and 61 cells, and U-Turn say it is built for performance, with good passive safety. They say it is very relaxing to fly, and has extremely tame reactions to collapses for a glider with its performance.

It will be available in the colour scheme pictured, in three sizes: XS (65-85kg), S (80-97kg) and M (93-110kg) which weigh 3.35-3.75kg.
