Once again a little bit too windy to fly? Then it´s the perfect day to do some groundhandling with the new independence "Trainer" ! Because it´s smaller surface compared to a normal glider enables you to practise groundhandling even at windspeeds on which a normal glider better stays in it´s backpack.

The flat area of the Trainer is much smaller (11.5m²), but it´s lines and risers are nearly the same than on a "real" paraglider. That makes groundhandling-exercises quite realistic, and the so acquired skills can be transfered to the handling of a bigger glider.

So the main target group of the "Trainer" are paragliding students who like to improve their groundhandling skills and take-off techniques. But also for more experienced pilots who like to play in the wind the "Trainer" is a very usefull toy, cause a very good groundhandling is the key to a perfect glider control. That is increasing the fun and safety clearly.

Attention: The "Trainer" is only designed for groundhandling-exercises. It´s not suitable for flying!

The "Trainer" is delivered with innerbag and a small independence rucksack. Available colours: black/red and black/orange
