    Hallo

    My name is Alex and I am from Romania. Here this sport is not so developed, but it is growing slow with old equipment.
    I ski very good since I was 3 years old and I have license for paragliding and for paramotor.

    I flay for 6 years.
    I want to buy a wing for speed riding.
    I weight 75 kg.

    What wing it will be better for me?
    -gin nano 12,5
    -swing spitfire 13
    -mac para whistler2 12 or 14?

    Thanks
    and best regards
    Alex

    Hi Alex

    Thanks for contacting Speed-Flying.com

    Very hard to choose between the 3 models as all are great gliders...

    -gin nano 12,5
    -swing spitfire 13
    -mac para whistler2 12 or 14?

    @75Kg I wouldn't go for the 14m Whistler
    Whistler is a good Beginners glider and is often used by some of the Speed-Flying school.

    Spitfire is a more advanced glider and could be compared to the Gin Fluid, with the Nano being the best all round glider. I think your choice would have to be either Nano 12.5 or Whistler 12. Not had a chance to fly a Whistler, so if was me having to choose - I would go for the Nano.
    But saying that both Nano or Whistler would be a good choice.

    Hope reply is helpful
    Best Regards
    Alan
