FLUID, the freeride wing

The FLUID 2010 goes further in the Freeride spirit. It offers an extremely wide glide ratio range, from the steepest to the flatest.

Sizes: 8 - 9.5 - 11
> The 11 m2 is for heavy weight experienced and expert pilots.
> The 9.5 m2 is for expert pilots only, the perfect tool for freeriders.
> The 8 m2 is for extreme experts only, focused on speed oriented use such as slalom runs or derby runs

The expert wing, the FLUID 2010 is the glider for experienced and expert riders. Its precision, its wide speed range and its wide glide angle range will greatly expand your concept of speedriding. Feel the ultimate speedride between air and snow with your FLUID!

Since the beginning, GIN speedriding phylosophy has focused on easy of use, safety, and fun. These values are reflected in the Nano and also in the Fluid. We love Speedriding, and even for an ultimate expert glider like the Fluid, we love it safe.

The FLUID is precise, reactive and fast. It is as able to contour the ground on gentle slopes as on very steep ones. The 3 riser system, constantly improved by the GIN Team during 2009 winter, will allow you to trim the glide angle without losing stability and profile qualities. With these improvments, the Fluid has won the French open title in 2009 with Francois Bon.

* Choose your size according to your weight and - more importantly - experience.

Harness:

It is delivered complete with the new specially designed 'FREERIDER 2010' convertible harness/rucksack, carabiners, and the new fast-packing bag. This lighter and more compact harness is dedicated to a wild area use-with a sock pocket for the storage of poles, an anti-puncture concept, an ice axe holder, etc.
