THRUST HP is now made from the new lightweight Gelvenor siliconised cloth, shedding 500gr. of its weight.
New, sophisticated FLEXON® batten system incorporated (see below) - replacing mylar reinforcement on L/E - which saves another 300gr from the weight of the glider.
Thrust HP is now lighter by almost one kilo, thanks to the new cloth and sophisticated FLEXON® system -making it one of the lightest wings in its Class - incredible 5.4kg for S and 5.8kg for M. Now it is an even safer and easier launching wing.
New FLEXON® batten system is virtually indestructable and will guarantee evenly excellent launch and performance over the lifespan of the glider
THRUST HP now the no.1 easiest launching, lightest paramotor wing around, without sacrificing any of its legendary durability.

In order to prove the safety of Thrust HP , we cooperated with Air Turquoise - official EN certification laboratory to conduct a new ground breaking test sequence for all parameters of safety as a paramotor unit, in addition to standard paragliding certification - the tests confirmed that the reflex hybrid technology of Thrust HP actually improves the safety of the wing on higher speeds or with trimmers released.
During the test, load on A and B risers were measured at different angle of attack at different speeds and it was proved that the load rises on A and B risers with increased speed, making collapses more difficult, contributing to the stability. Click here to view results

Materials
The glider is made from tear resistant Ripstop Nylon cloth, which is P.U. coated to zero porosity and then siliconized to give the fabric high resistance to the elements. Different cloth is used for the top, bottom and ribs due to their different functions. The lines are made of superaramid covered with a polyester sheath for protection against UV, wear and abrasion. The bottom section of the brake lines is made of polyester because of its better mechanical properties. The karabiners that attach the lines to the risers are made of stainless steel.
