Rondo
Shared joy is doubled joy! Shared performance is doubled performance! A high aspect ratio High B wing.
Pilot Profile:
As most biplace wings on the market are low B concepts, we heard of the demand for a high performance wing, that is stylish and a joy to fly with.The PHI Rondo is a high-end B tandem paraglider with an aspect ratio of 5.7 and 58 cells. Designed for pilots demanding high performance and agility, it features Nitinol rods for form stability and extremely easy packing. A unique neoprene padding on the leading edge protects against abrasion. The wing incorporates a novel 'double reef' brake system that ensures the lowest brake pressure ever on a tandem with full feedback. An exceptionally fast, solid inflation and a highly efficient 50% B-transition trim system make it a benchmark in modern tandem flying. Available in a standard covered line version and a 'Rondo C' competition version with uncovered lines.
