Description

The simultaneous release with the new Trango X is no coincidence, but shows once again how technologies from higher classes find their way into lower categories. Accordingly, the new Summit X has inherited the genes of its "big brother" and, in addition to the brand new 2-liner hybrid line setting, also shows its family affiliation in the airfoil. The fact that this interplay of new technologies can now also find its way into the B-Class is due not least to the successful cooperation with a renowned technical university, which was significantly involved in the development of the new, more powerful and more rattle-resistant profile. Countless simulations and several prototypes later, we are proud to be able to usher in a new era in the B category with the new Summit X! The new Summit X is more powerful than ever thanks to its completely new airfoil and the 2-liner hybrid line system! The certification in the B-segment was achieved completely without folding lines! What is new? The Summit X has a completely new line concept. This line concept, also called "2-liner hybrid", not only causes less air resistance and thus improves glide performance, but now allows even more efficient steering via the C-risers. This hybrid system consists of the traditional 3 line levels in the centre of the canopy, but tightens to only two line levels towards the wing sides - following the example of the full-blooded two-liners. In addition, our R&D team has worked out a completely new airfoil. The new airfoil now has an even more optimal airflow, which significantly reduces drag. In addition, the new airfoil is much more resistant to collapses, which in turn benefits passive safety.
