In honour of this bird, we’ve decided to call this mini wing The Kagoo; introducing the opportunity of flight in order to explore the world, and other interesting and ambitious projects.
We have always been passionate about the mountains, and walking forms an integral part of our days out flying. When considering a mountain wing, we didn’t want to simply produce a lighter version of the Spiruline, as we wanted the wing to offer much more; with the emphasis on ease of use, a clean and easy line layout, and easy inflation.

At 18.5m2 the Kagoo is an ideal size for most mountain pilots. It performs well in thermic air, and the controls are gentle yet precise. Weighing only 2.9kg, it can be carried anywhere in the mountains, and is ideal for traveling. It has not been designed simply for fly downs, it makes the best of the conditions giving the pilot maximum airtime to journey at will. Equipped with trims for acceleration the Kagoo offers a good speed range, essential when flying in the mountains. Despite it being a mountain wing, the Kagoo makes a great leisure wing, fun to fly at local sites, and also for pilots wishing to fly with skis, not forgetting hike & fly competitions.
