It gives regular riders a noticeably lighter, stiffer and more direct feel than the standard construction, without moving to the price and more specialist nature of the D\/LAB. In 5m it makes an excellent main wing for a wide range of UK conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis wing has been part of our demo fleet and may therefore show light cosmetic signs consistent with demo use.
