The PRION
The PRION is the result of permanent development and rigorous research
which was based on the very successful PRIMAX. The PRION is a Beginner-
Glider EN A / LTF 1 paraglider which is suitable for beginners as well as
advanced pilots in search of maximum safety and minimum stress.
Short technical description
The PRION has 35 cells. Four of those cells are closed stabilo cells on each
side.
There are four layers of lines. The first layer, the A-lines are red. B, C and D
lines are yellow. The brake layer, which is not one of the four line layers, is
orange.
(the
stabilo
lines
are
orange
as
well.)
The risers consist of 5 belts. On the first two belts (red) both A stem lines are
attached. Furthermore the speed system is fixed on the first A belt. On the next
three belts the B, C, and D stem lines are attached.
Safety
The PRION has a long brake travel until stall and soft collapse behaviour. In
combination with the damped flight characteristics, the PRION is perfectly
suited for beginners. The EN / LTF test protocols show the very big safety
margins of the glider which lead to a very forgiving flight characteristic.
Handling Characteristics
We are especially proud of the balanced handling characteristics. Despite the
large available brake travel, the PRION can be piloted as precisely as is
normally only possible with higher rated wings. So a beginner can "grow"
perfectly with the PRION and he will have the possibility to learn a lot more
about flying than on a sluggish school-glider. A pilot who already has gathered
some experience will be able to use more of the possibilities the wing offers
right from the beginning.
