FIDES 2 Evo
FIDES 2 Evo is the successor of FIDES 2.
FIDES 2 Evo was redesigned, new, state of art materials
are used, and the whole glider was certified according to EN 926
certification procedures.
Even though FIDES 2 Evo introduces the whole series of
improvements (new wingtip, new material, new certification, new risers) we
still decided to call it evolution (therefore evo) and not the new gerratin
(which would make it FIDES 3). During the development the team led by
Alexandre Paux of Switzerland managed to reach outstanding features that
were also confirmed by the new
EN certification methods…
The amazing glider is especially well suited for the professional schools
(thanks to the new generation of
SKYTEX
usage on the leading age), leisure time pilots who would like to enjoy
maximum passive safety when thermaling at their occasional flying.
The main distinctive features are:
- High speed range (22-45 km/h)
- High stability with minimal front and side collapses
- If collapsed, the reopening is very smooth
- Easy take-off with no overshooting tendency
- Minimum pitching tendency even when regenerating from massive
collapses
- Very stable in rough air
- Nice entering into the thermals with no losses due to the roll
instability
- Very nice SKY handling
- Optimized for the ground practice
- High efficiency in the thermals
- Very low weight - only 4,8 kg (for the M size)
- New materials used

Atis2
The first generation of
ATIS was some time ago the true benchmark for DHV 1-2 gliders. It was voted
as the glider of a year by VOL LIBRE. The reviewers were enthusiastic about the
glider and they expressed the pity to give the glider back.
And ATIS 2 is just new and we hope it could become not only
new wing but also very reputable wing as well even though it will be difficult
to rival the old generation.
ATIS 2 is just new in any point of view: new certification
EN-B based on CEN 926-1 and 926-2, new profile, new layout and new experience.
(EN B equals right now to the DHV 1-2 classification of the glider, the
certification is DIFFERENT, and CEN 926-2 is different from DHV certification!)
The main distinctive features are:
- High stability
- Speed and ability to penetrate in the headwind
- Low weight
- Comfortable SKY handling
- Thermaling
- Predictable and easily controlled reactions during SIV maneuvers
(Simulation d’Incident en Vol)
- Minimum sink rate and high glide ration
The main changes compared to the first generation
of the glider:
- New profile with lighter ribs concept and higher speed
range…
- New layout scheme
- New design of stabilizers
- Higher speed range with lower sink and higher glide
efficiency
- New, easy to use and highly efficient speed system
- New geometry
- New technology of the leading edge design
- Trailing edge with velcro opening for easy cleaning of
the canopy

 ANTEA
A Greek mythology hero - is the first ever glider certified in the EN-C
category.
The focus at the development was to make the fabulous SKY handling even better,
to improve the weigh ranges to match the majority pilots and still to bring
outstanding performance with reliable and safe aspect ratio.
Learning a lot from popular
BRONTES and its thermaling skills, we aimed even for better performance at
the XC flights and we managed remarkably increase the speed range of the glider,
so much needed at the demanding XC flights.
Well, and those who test flew the glider say: "Yes!", "Wow!", "Great!", "You did
it!", "Oh, my God!", "What about joining them!" ...
 Cima
K2
The CIMA is an all new glider in a class of its
own.
The CIMA is the multi-purpose glider suitable for
every pilot's needs. Despite its light weight and compact size the
CIMA is a glider without compromise. The
CIMA has performance to rival any Standard class
paraglider.
The Cima is perfectly suited for:
- Hike and climbing to out of the way launches.
- Light and compact enough to comfortably take anywhere - even
skiing.
- Traveling - take your glider along as carry-on luggage!
- Pilots wanting a lighter, less bulky glider durable enough
for normal every-day flying.
Advantages of the Cima:
- A mountain glider, but made from standard materials for
"real glider" durability.
- The CIMA is made from Porcher Marine
Skytex 9017 - just like our other gliders.
- Sheathed lines and real risers - for durability and
confidence.
- A glider ratio of better than 8/1
- Best of all, world famous Sky Paragliders quality.
