You're cruising... wind
whistling in your face. Out in front and gliding to goal. Your
wing feels so smooth; it's like a part of you. This is the
moment...

A wing created from experience...
This new competition wing results from an important
collaboration between two of the leading designers in
paragliding.
Since last summer, Gin Seok Song and Robert Graham have
pooled their knowledge, ideas and over 40 years combined
design experience into the creation of our new competition
glider, the jewel of our brand: the Boomerang.
A wing trimmed and tested by experienced competition
pilots...
Well respected and proven pilots tested and trimmed the
Boomerang 4:
 | One World Champion and World Cup Overall winner (Housi
Bollinger - CH) |
 | One double World Cup Overall winner (Jimmy Pacher -
CH) |
 | One of the most experienced World Cup pilots (Kaoru
Ogisawa - J) |
 | Winner of the last World Cup in Mexico '04 (Stephan
Wyss - CH) |
 | World Cup Winning Team members (Norman Lausch - G,
Mathias Roten - CH)
|
These successful pilots know what makes a glider work for
them, they know what's needed for that important glider
advantage and they have fine tuned these attributes and
characteristics into the latest version of GIN's Boomerang.
Completely new wing.
Designed by Gin Seok Song in cooperation with Robert
Graham and Jungmok Park the wing is built with a new shape,
an aspect ratio close to 7 (6.86 exactly) and new profiles.
15 prototypes were necessary to find the perfect balance of
best performance, solid stability, efficient handling and a
flyable top speed. The result is a high performance wing
with good feeling and the GIN spirit.
U.V. Protection Line Technology...
In partnership with Edelrid and Aerosport a new exclusive
competition line was developed. This line is coated with an
agent, that protects it against the UV-rays from the sun.
The new line will last longer, but must be checked for
strength every 100 hours like every other unsheathed Aramid
competition line. The new line is colored which makes it
much nicer for ground handling and sorting.
