UP have made a new ‘serious’ alpine rucksack for paragliders. The Summiteer Light takes 90 litres of kit and weighs just 382g.
The company write:
“A good hike-and fly backpack should be comfortable to carry, cinch down tight against your back, and be made of the highest quality light-weight materials. We have designed the Summiteer Light to do just that“.
It will be delivered with all Lhotse paragliders from March 2018, and can also be ordered separately from UP dealers.
