Explanation of all skywalk Product-Feature-Icons Which technologies will you find in your skywalk glider?

JET FLAP: Our JET FLAPS extend the green arc as you approach the stall point, which substantially increases safety and also improves climb performance.

PURE PASSION FOR FLYING Innovations for flying sports since 2001 At skywalk we are full of enthusiasm for wind, nature sports and innovative technologies. That‘s why we have been developing flying gear since 2001 that sets new impulses and offers

Agility System: Adaptive system that allows you to convert between two brake line geometries - „Comfort-Mode“ and „Sport-Mode Rigid Foil: The Rigid Foil nylon wires on the leading edge help maintain its shape and ensure constant ram air pressure. Advantages: better takeoff behavior, more performance and lower canopy weight.

a maximum of user-friendliness. Away from the mainstream, with an eye on what is technically feasible - and above all on you: our customers.

To improve the slow flight characteristics and thus the safety

3D-Shaping: A precise calculation of the leading edge geometry and the installation of an additional strip of fabric reduce wrinkling in this sensitive part of the glider. Advantages: exact wing shape, more performance.

of paragliders, we developed JET FLAPS in our founding year, and these remain our distinguishing feature today.

With PERMAIR technology we revolutionized the safety and packing size of impact protection for harnesses, and with our “Speed-Control”, high performance pilots can glide through turbulent air without releasing the speed bar.

Our “Agility Control” technology sets new standards and will be used for the first time in 2020 on our entry-level glider MESCAL6. The system allows the pilot to switch between two brake line geometries.

At skywalk we are equally enthusiastic about ultra-light competition equipment as we are about ultra-safe beginner‘s gear.

The following pages will give you insight into our current product range.

3 Line Levels: The 3-line-level concept reduces the number of lines and the resulting drag. Advantages: more performance and a better overview at launch.

Shark Nose: Together with a corresponding wing design, the shark nose technology improves pressure distribution in the canopy substantially.

Advantages: much more solid flying feeling and substantial performance gain, especially when gliding on bar.

C-Wires: C-wires are nylon wires sewn into the glider over the anchor points of the C-level lines.

Advantages: better load distribution, reduced drag, more performance.

Mini Ribs: Doubling the number of cells at the trailing edge increases its shape stability substantially.

Advantage: fewer vortices improve the aerodynamics and with it the performance

Speed Control System: Handle on rear riser which allows the pilot to even out turbulence, speed and pitch while flying on speed bar without having to release the speed bar.

Loops & Hooks: Our loops and straps on the top sail make it possible to lay out the canopy in the most difficult alpine terrain.

Automatic Sand Release System: Porous openings of the profile ribs at the trailing edge ensure that sand and dirt in the glider are automatically guided to the wingtip where they can trickle out. This helps preserve the material and »relieves« the trailing edge.

MESCAL Grows with your skills.

The MESCAL6 is particularly easy to handle and gives you a lot of confidence from the first moment. Thanks to skywalk‘s revolutionary Agility System it is also the first glider that grows with the pilot‘s skills.

The Agility System allows you to adjust the brake line geometry individually to the pilot‘s wishes with just a few steps.

In “Comfort Mode” the MESCAL6 is the perfect training glider. The brakes emphasize the center of the wing: Braking impulses are directly applied, the canopy turns flatter - perfect for flights on training slopes and the first mountain flights. Student pilots can concentrate fully on the unknown medium of air.

In “Sport Mode” the handling becomes more lively and agile. The brakes accentuate the outer wing: the glider banks higher, the control pressure in the effective range is lower and you can optimize your bank angle in every position while turning - experienced pilots fly high wingovers with ease.

With the Agility System you can refine your feeling for the glider and increase it step by step!

But the MESCAL6 inspires not only with its adaptive handling. The pilot also gets a glider that is completely stress-free from pre-launch preparations to after-landing packing.

Like its predecessors, the MESCAL6 is based on a compact wing shape with an aspect ratio of 4.8 and 38 cells - optimal for this class of airfoil.

The clearly arranged line setup and the color-coded risers facilitate pre-launch preparations and easy inflation in all wind conditions.

A further detail is our “ERGO-Handles”: These size-adjustable brake handles allow you to adjust them to your personal favorite position. The materials used are very robust and are forgiving if you let the canopy touch the ground.

The MESCAL6 comes equipped with all the latest technologies, placing you at the cutting-edge right from the start.

CHILI A class of its own The name CHILI has long been a symbol for just the right synthesis of highest performance and balanced flying characteristics in the EN-B class. So developing a new CHILI is always the greatest challenge for our R&D team. Before we drew the first line on the drawing board for the CHILI4, we took a long look at the feedback from the CHILI community. Your wishes became our command.

The CHILI4 now transmits feedback even more precisely through the brakes. The new brake system layout keeps brake line travel within an ergonomically comfortable zone. The glider is extremely stable in the air thanks to the new wing concept with a slightly higher number of cells, Shark Nose and lots of attention to detail 4

in cell construction and sail tension. This improves not only gliding performance over the entire polar curve, but also its stable flight behavior.

The characteristic thermal bite also benefits from the taught wing construction.

The climb performance of the CHILI4 remains the industry benchmark!

LIGHTWEIGHT PARAGLIDERS

MASALA Freedom. Every day.

The MASALA is the glider for all Hike & Fly pilots and ambitious para-alpinists who want to carry their ultralight gear with them. The lightest member of our lightweight family packs as small as a towel and fits in the tiniest backpack.

But the MASALA3 is much more than a just rapid descent aid for alpinists: Its playful handling thrills even the most pampered thermal freaks and it packs enough performance to bounce XC pilots from thermal to thermal. Certified as LFT/EN A, this lightweight glider is so easy to fly that even student pilots can step into the vertical dimension with lightweight gear from the very beginning.

The small sizes XXS and XS are interest-

ing for lighter pilots and, thanks to their extended weight ranges, they are also attractive for para-alpinists and those

X-ALPS The success story continues.

The X-ALPS4 was deemed by the athletes themselves to be the most powerful paraglider in the field at the Red Bull X-Alps 2019. To develop this well-balanced glider required the technological know-how of our R&D team and the intensive experience of our X-Alps athletes.

We deliberately chose a 3-line concept for the X-ALPS4, which, in our view, is currently the best symbiosis of high performance, low weight and ease of use.

The X-ALPS4 is a high-performance glider with a high fun factor. Its dynamically playful handling seduces you to exploit the full potential of the day, no matter how difficult the conditions. The ease of use starts at launch. The clear line setup and the redesigned Dyneema risers make it even easier to prepare for launch compared to its predecessor. Even with a slight tailwind, the canopy of the X-ALPS4 kites evenly and remains stable. That makes launching in challenging terrain even easier.

In the air, the X-ALPS4 will impress you with its pronounced pitch stability. Its performance is easy to access and the glider is amazingly stress-free to fly.

When flying on-bar, you can correct nick movements with the advanced Speed​​ Control extremely efficiently, and control in turbulent air at high speeds requires less effort. In thermals, the wing gives you excellent feedback via the brakes. Control pressure is lower and brake line travel is longer compared to its predecessor, which significantly increases flying comfort.

The technical data with a 6.99 aspect ratio and 82 cells guarantee a real race feeling.

Combined with its stable flight characteristics and low weight, the X-ALPS4 is the first choice for all Hik&Fly competition pilots as well as for uncompromising XC hunters!

With its huge weight range (100kg - 200kg in size S and 130kg - 225kg in size M), our tandem JOIN`T 3 is your ideal companion for both light and heavy pilot pairs. Each size offers a rich feeling in flight with maximum stability in both the high and low weight ranges. Its fine handling with smooth brake line travel is among the best in the tandem class.

The JOIN’T3 is the fun-glider of the tandems – whether in commercial or private use. The fun begins at launch because the low weight of JOIN’T3 means it’s easy to kite. After a surprisingly short takeoff distance, pilot and passenger are airborne. Its direct handling will thrill you in thermals, while losing altitude over the landing site, and while showing off to your passenger with some dynamic maneuvers.

Thanks to its simple flaring, point landings with JOIN’T3 are easy.

of the RANGE X-ALPS2 at a glance: 1 - Power Frame

With the RANGE X-ALPS2, skywalk has defined a new class. The fully enclosed, fully EN/LTF-certified ultralight harness weighs only 1.8 kg, including protector and carabiners. This makes the new RANGE X-ALPS2 first choice for Hike & Fly athletes and XC pilots who want to go to the limit in competitions or who insist on extremely light gear.

But this doesn’t mean that XC pilots have to sacrifice anything in terms of comfort and safety. skywalk‘s unique protector with PERMAIR technology combines the advantages of foam and dynamic pressure protectors.

The protector is inflated before launch with the inflation bag, so it offers you maximum protection during the take-off phase.

When you let the air out, the RANGE X-ALPS2 disappears into a 50-liter rucksack. skywalk‘s innovative Power Frame perfectly integrates the pilot in his seat, the easy-to-understand Get-up system with two-buckles ensures easy entry, and easily accessible straps allow individual inflight adjustment.

The RANGE X-ALPS2 offers full comfort, with maximum aerodynamics and minimal packing size.

HARNESSES

CULT Take off. Have a seat. Feel good.

To create something new, sometimes you have to take an unusual route. For our allround harness CULT, we analyzed motion sequences in different sports and dealt intensively with kinematics, ergonomics and product design. The result is a harness that sets new standards with its exceptionally high level of comfort, new safety features, ease of use and sleek design.

The basis for the high level of flying comfort is provided by our new Power Frame and, for the first time in a paraglider harness, the back part can be adjusted individually to the length of the pilot’s back.

This ensures that the CULT clings to the pilot like a tailor-made backpack. The loops on the adjustable back, shoulder, chest and leg straps marked »+« and »-« allow you to individually adjust the damping of the harness at any time like the suspension of a modern car. Beginners and professionals immediately feel comfortable in the CULT, steering their paraglider intuitively - and thus safely.

The new Power Frame ensures ideal pressure distribution and support – flying comfort guaranteed!

RESCUE SALSA | PEPPER Return safely to earth.

Our cruciform reserve chutes increase your safety decisively. Thanks to their design, they have a very short deployment time and high pendular stability two factors that can be crucial when the situation gets dicey. Large surfaces ensure a low rate of descent, and the symmetrical structure prevents system-related forward motion. This means that a stable descent with a pleasant landing is possible.

Both reserve chutes have a separate lines compartment on the deployment bag, while durable materials guarantee that your rescue gear is still in top condition even after many years!

The SALSA has the same structure as the PEPPER and enables an inexpensive entry into the world of square rescues.

The PEPPER CROSS LIGHT is our reserve chute for weight fetishists.
