Hmm, i have been flying the Gin Sprint large for some hour now. Even some xc. It feels good. Very safe and still okey performance. Sinkrate is low and it thermals nicely. All in all it’s very easy to fly. Agility is good enough for it’s category. I like it and think it’s a well finished product.

Anything bad? Well the glider i flew before the Sprint was the Ozone Swift and that is so lightweight and packs soo small. Big difference when going back to a “normal” glider. All of a sudden the backpack is heavy again… Make the Sprint in lightweight… infact make all gliders light!!! 

To get it small when packing You need a xcertina bag. :-)

The new Gin rucksack is well done. Maybe i find the pack a bit high? It feels like it wobbles around abit on the back. Hmmm, not shure. The shoulderstraps are comfortable even with heavy weights. Nice limey details.

Gin Sprint is a nice limegreen glider. :-)

(i think there’s other colours too;-)

It looks very much like the Airwave Sport 4 with similar reinforcements in the sail.
