AirDesign Rise 5 paraglider

The Rise 5 is one of the most technically advanced EN-B gliders on the market. Its 2.5-line architecture — three lines at the centre, two at the tips — cuts drag and pushes performance at full bar into EN-C territory, while holding EN-B passive safety. Two pairs of winglets (wingtip drag reduction + top-surface roll stability), S-Nose construction, Rigi-Rods for profile rigidity, mini-ribs, and 3D-cut vortex holes — every detail is optimised for cross-country pilots who want more without moving up a class. 53 cells, flat aspect ratio 5.85, six sizes from 19 to 26 m² covering 50–135 kg.
