RONIN
RONIN – #bladerunnin. Light and fast! No gods, no masters.
Pilot Profile:
The RONIN was a wandering samurai who had no lord or master. Our glider follows the same path. It is intended for pilots looking for a single surface but with a more radical flying style... The RONIN is ideal for ambitious pilots, trail running, practicing extreme mountaineering and searching for the most remote challenges in the world.The RONIN is AirDesign's ultimate single-surface glider designed for trail running, extreme mountaineering, and run & fly adventures. Weighing from just 1 kg and packing into 5L, it features a Kammtail profile, double-coated Dominico DOKDO 10D fabric, Nitinol rods, and unsheathed Aramid lines. It substitutes a speed system for an inherent high trim speed.
