For this we designed a paraglider with 51 cells of variable widths, not all of which have
line attachment points due to the advanced structural relationship of lines/diagonals. In
this way we have considerably reduced parasitic drag produced by the lines whilst at the
same time endowing the interior of the wing with a higher internal pressure and creat-
ing calculated zones of greater longitudinal tension, very important for increasing resist-
ance to tucks (above all frontal collapses).

The tuareg’s new profile gives highly elevated security and performance, as well as a
turning ability that is surprisingly efficient.

It has double profiles in the leading edge, therefore it is safer, specially when trims open
and also has more performance at high speed.

The end result is a tandem that inflates quickly and easily during launch and is excep-
tionally stable and solid during the take-off run, giving great protection against having
to abort launches and compromising the safety of yourself and your passenger.

During launch the tuareg gives an
exceptional degree of control, allowing
the pilot to easily make precise correc-
tions during the take-off run. Once air-
borne, the tuareg’s superb feedback
and responsive handling allows one to
make the most of even the smallest
thermals.

When the time comes to land, the
exquisite handling characteristics and
precision of the tuareg serve as
another great guarantee of safety
since you can first of all guide yourself
more precisely into exactly the spot
you wanted to land in, confident that
in the final moment, when you want to
flare, you will be able to take advan-
tage of the wings superb energy con-
version, landing both you and your
passenger easy and safety each time.
