Czech paraglider manufacturer Gradient‘s new intermediate glider, the Golden 3, has achieved EN B certification.
The replacement for the Golden 2, Gradient says the Golden 3 is actually a completely new development that has been generated from a lot of different prototypes, which has a new profile but the same construction type that Gradient says reduces weight and improves flight characteristics in extreme manoeuvers, thermals and turbulence. They have designed it to give maximum pilot feedback.
Available in five sizes and a new colour design with Gradient’s logo on the upper surface. Custom colours are available on request.
