glider for beginner

thanks!!

Size of glider to use depends on your weight a good guide is 65 - 85kg 13m² over 85kg 14 or 15m² and is suggested weight guide used by most speed glider manufacturers. To big and the glider will feel slow and you have less contact with the snow. Sizes you dont want when beginning - nothing smaller than 12m² so not 8,9,10,11m and only 12m if you weigh less than 65kg. Your actual flying weight will be another 10 or more Kgs than you body weight when adding Skis, Boots, harness and clothes etc... the extra weight will make a big difference if you have the wrong size glider.
