VERSATILITY
The R3 is the wing capable of adapting to the most varied slopes that we have tried, which does not prevent it from also having a good margin in terms of ease of take-off and stability in flight among the wings intended for advanced level pilots.
The speed has been increased for each trim position: closed trimmers show a clear gain in finesse, while opening them to reach maximum speed the R3 dives and carves even harder than the Rapi-Dos.</ p>
TECHNOLOGY
We have focused our efforts on reducing drag and improving efficiency which has resulted in increased speed and glide ratio. The new lines and the work on the sail tensions extend the range of slopes to which the wing can adapt, without losing any stability at high speed.
LIGHTWEIGHT & SUSTAINABLE
New laser-cut diagonals have reduced weight without reducing the durability of the kite. A lighter wing also has less inertia and therefore better agility. The durable materials chosen for the external surfaces optimize the longevity of the kite – the Rapido 3 will give you many years of enjoyment in normal use. For you, these developments make take-off easier, allow for faster turns or barrel rolls, not to mention the value the wing retains on the second-hand market.
THE PILOT
The Rapido 3 is designed for pilots who have at least one full season under a heavily loaded intermediate wing, for example a Fazer. The Rapido 3 has a level of speed, handling and resourcefulness when passing close to the ground that gives access to the quintessence of this sport.
WING LOAD
The kite is available in sizes from 6m to 15m. The 6m version is reserved for expert pilots who already have experience with wings such as the Rapido. The choice of surface from 8m to 13m allows you to place yourself at the wing loading you want, the 15m size is accessible to a wider variety of pilots.
