Adventure awaits! The Yeti 6 is all about discovery. Whether you’re a recent pilot just discovering the joys of flight or a more experienced adventurer on a trip to a new playground, the Yeti 6 has you covered. The Yeti 6 is suitable for all levels of pilot, depending on the chosen wing loading. It is most suited for hike ‘n fly and at lower wing loadings, schooling and even thermal flying. At high wing loadings, the Yeti 6 becomes a bundle of dynamic fun. Compact in the air... Thanks to the new planform and arc, the wing is agile in the turn whilst remaining highly stable in roll. It has a compact and well balanced feel in the air in all conditions. Lines are a carefully chosen mix of sheathed lines for the lower and mid lines with unsheathed upper lines. ...and on the ground No stone was left unturned in our quest to minimise weight and packing volume. Nickel titanium (Nitinol) rods are used in place of plastics, and reinforcements on both the trailing and leading edge have been removed or replaced with tapes wherever possible. The internal structure has been further optimised for lower weight and the number of bridle attachment points reduced. All this means a smaller, lighter pack — helping you move fast across the terrain. First class climbing Some mountain wings leave something to be desired when it comes to climbing performance. Not so the Yeti 6. The planform, arc, sail tensioning and swept back wing tips all work together to promote flat and efficient turning behaviour. The Yeti 6 can be used for so much more than just fly-downs!
