UP – Meru Paragliding Wings

R 79,900.00

We designed the UP – Meru Paragliding Wings for record breaking cross country flights, and top-level competitions. An aspect ratio of 6.9 combined with a sophisticated two-liner construction make the MERU the perfect glider for expert pilots to get the most out of their flying day. The MERU has the handling that UP is known for; direct, sharp and fun to fly. The MERU’s agility and communication mean that the pilot will find the thermal faster, and climb more efficiently. Complex internal structure combined with two-liner pitch control make the MERU very stable at speed, with awesome performance into a headwind.

  • New Generation “Shark nose” Aerofoil
  • Double 3D panel shaping
  • Leading Edge 3D negative panel shaping for a cleaner and stiffer leading edge
  • UP low-drag line attachment points on the canopy
  • Mini ribs along trailing edge
