Way Gliders is a brand of paragliders sold exclusively on Rid Air, from producer to pilot.
A rōnin (浪人, literally “vague man”) was, in medieval Japan (1185-1868), a samurai without a master.
Starting at one kilo, and with a volume of 5L when folded, the RONIN is our ultimate monosurface for running and flying. And run. And fly. Nothing can stop you.
The RONIN was a wandering samurai who had neither lord nor master. Our sail follows the same path. It is intended for pilots looking for a single surface with a more radical flying style. Combining the lowest weight and folding volume with the greatest durability, the RONIN is made to run and fly – limitless, fast, without receiving orders or restrictions: free in all your activities. Break your own rules, break your own rules!

The Total Flying Weight includes the equipped pilot, the wing, the harness, the rescue…
The RONIN has an approved standard weight range (EN 926-2, e.g. EN-B) and an extended weight range covered by EN 926-1 (load test). In the first case, the paraglider is aimed at an intermediate level pilot and is already quite fast. In the second case, the sail is more loaded and therefore the speed is much higher, so good take-off and landing skills are required.
