Gin Vantage 3: lightweight meets paramotor
The Vantage 3 offers several advantages over a conventional paramotor wing for example,
- compact to pack and light to carry
- easy inflation and rapid lift-off
- intelligent mix of fabric for lightness and durability
- easy thermalling in free flight mode
- ideal for travelling, bivouac and light trike use
The Vantage 3 can also be used as a confidence-inspiring wing for free flying, taking paramotor pilots from their first steps without a motor on to thermalling and even XC.
Designer notes Gin Vantage 3
Test pilot Laurent Salinas explains the philosophy of the Vantage 3:
“Our target with Matt Minyard was to bring the advantages of lightweight paragliding wings to beginner and intermediate paramotor pilots, especially pilots looking to practice paragliding and paramotoring with the same wing.
Furthermore, we felt it was important to make a wing with easy inflation and take-off. This helps a lot for light trike use and the lighter canopy is also ideal for bivouac flying.
Also, we also worked a lot to achieve the right mix of security and agile, fun handling. The shorter risers help a lot with this and speed increases are easy to manage. Speed increase is provided by both the trimmers (40%) and the speed bar (60%) and you can use the full brake range in all flight configurations (trim, open trimmers, accelerated). We also significantly reduced the torque effect compared to the Vantage 2.
All in all, the wing put a smile on our faces and we are confident it will do the same for you!”
