2. Introducing Speed Flying

Speedflying, a new flying concept.

A new flying craze is here: Speedflying; flying fast downhill.

Over the last few years, Gin Gliders have been developing speedgliders for speedriding (launch

by ski).

Now, Gin Gliders introduces a speedglider designed for foot launch, the Bobcat.

Speedgliders, a new design concept.

Speedriding and speedflying are both based on a new design concept developed by Gin Gliders.

Speedgliders are not small paragliders, like for example the « Yeti 19 » which is a mini-

paraglider and part of our paraglider range.

Speedgliders are dedicated to fly with low glide ratio, stability and speed.

The Speedgliders’ concept is based on :

- Pitch Stability

- Angle of attack control

- Variable glide ratio

- Speed control

3. Introducing the BOBCAT, the Speedflying wing

The Bobcat is opening new horizons of piloting for expert and careful pilots with a lot of flying

experience.

The air, the speed and the fun are joined for a new dimension of flight… the possibilities are

growing!

The play of trajectories and speed against the relief opens new piloting potential, as yet

unexplored using soft canopies.

The Bobcat will give you the possibility to return to the original soul of flight and also to open

up new fields of practice. You will be able to fly down the mountain in wider aerological

conditions with this simple and solid glider. You will have fun with strong wind ground handling

and soaring…

Speedflying fields of use…

"Traditional" Speedflying

Unlike modern paragliders, the Bobcat will give you an adrenaline-powered ride down a

mountain, following the slopes and ridges. This is due to a lower glide ratio and higher trim
