The SuSi XPed is AirDesign's dedicated hike & fly wing, built for pilots who prioritise pack weight above everything else. Four sizes from 13 to 21 m², weighing just 1.75 to 2.31 kg. EN category depends on size: EN-D at size 13, EN-C at 16 and 18, EN-B at 21 m². This is NOT a beginner's wing — the smaller sizes require real experience and are certified for pilots operating at EN-C and EN-D skill level. For experienced pilots wanting the lightest possible capable wing for mountain objectives.

For experienced pilots only — not suitable for beginners
Certification on this wing ranges from EN-B to EN-D depending on size and wing loading. The permitted pilot level depends directly on which size you choose and your all-up weight.
⚠️ Before ordering, always check the size table on this page. The EN class of your specific size must match your experience level — this is a safety-critical step.
Certifications: EN-B to EN-D
EN-B EN-B spans a wide range — from low-B (close to A-class safety) to high-B (approaching C-class performance). Collapses require some pilot input to assist recovery.
EN-C EN-C is for pilots with full SIV training. Collapses require fast, precise pilot input. Higher glide ratio and speed — ideal for competitions and serious XC flying.
EN-D EN-D is competition class: maximum performance with minimal passive safety. Suitable only for professional competition pilots.
