Flare MOUSTACHE – ”VIIKSI”
The wing type’s name, Moustache, is referred to as a parakite in English. Controlling the glider is largely similar to paragliders, but the Moustache can also quickly ”dive” up and down, similar to a hang glider. Hand adjustments mainly control the wing’s angle of attack, keeping the trailing edge profile as aerodynamic as possible.
Lappis is Flare’s Pro Partner in Finland. We have all Moustache-demo wings Moustache demo wings available for interested pilots in sizes: 13, 15, 18, 22, 26. Pilots should have paragliding or speedriding training or equivalent flying skills.
