The Kössen Paragliding Testival over the last weekend of May saw great weather and lots of flying. We nosed around the trade stands to find out what’s new…

Sky’s latest harness is the Crux – an alpine paragliding harness. Designer Cyprián Koreň​ explains its unique features at the Kössen Paragliding Testival in May 2017.

AirDesign’s manager and designer Stephan Steigler talks about the creation of their brand new paraglider, the EN-D Hero. A lightweight performance wing, no detail was too small to consider.

We’ve been promised that electric is the future of paramotoring for a number of years. U-Turn have now introduced their Transformer motor to the market with a soft release this year. “Cleaner, quite and safer,” they say.

We caught up with Triple Seven Paragliders’ Matjaz Klemenčič to talk about their new wings – and when we are likely to see their CCC glider.

A pod harness weighing just 1kg? Stefan Kurrle from Skyman and Independence shows us their latest creation. Designed for paraglider pilots who want the ultimate in lightweight hike-and-fly vol-biv performance.
