Velocity CORE Colours

THE “CORE” Wing: Velocity Paragliders is a division of BlackHawk, had tremendous success with our previous “Edge” beginner paraglider. Schools and Pilots around the world who loved the Edge will be blown away by the design of the new Velocity Core. The Core takes learning Powered Paragliding to a whole new level – providing everything you could expect from a beginner-friendly glider, all the way up to intermediate-level Pilots!

ALL-NEW DESIGN: This glider was designed with quality and performance in mind with every single step of the construction process. The Core features Delrin Battens in the leading edge for optimal durability and shape-retention. We've added “Split A’s” for easier launching & the ability to perform “Big Ears” or dissension from higher-altitude flights. The core is constructed from Dominico which is used in the Industry’s higher-performance gliders. This makes it lightweight and assures a long-lasting glider that Pilots can enjoy for many years to come.

FLYING THE CORE: Boasting an incredible 9:1 glide ratio, the efficiency of the core will quickly make it a standard or “go-to” glider in the Cross-Country PPG community.   The combination of unbeatable flare-authority and profound energy-retaining characteristics will provide for extremely mellow landings. The Core is Velocity’s “easiest kiting glider ever produced” due to the features mentioned and will become a favourite among Schools or those just getting into the sport. As an upper-end EN-A Glider, the Core is suitable for beginners and will accommodate Intermediate Pilots who want to push the limits of their skills. Beautiful design, unmatched performance, and extreme durability… Now THAT’S getting to the “Core” of the sport and everything that Velocity Paragliders USA stands for.

• Velocity’s Anti-Torque Technology (loop-within-a-loop)
• Newly added DuPont Delrin (acetal polyoxymethylene) battens

IMPORTANT: For flight stability in higher wind conditions, you should select a wing as close to your upper Total Flight Weight as possible, that includes you &/or passenger, all equipment and Fuel you intent to carry, this ensures the Wing sizes is suitable to your specific weight!

IMPORTANT: If you are flying a Wing without a engine, ask your Flight Instructor to ensure the Paraglider size is suitable to your specific application.

Some experienced pilots choose to select an under-size wing, Caution is needed as this will increase the Sink rate and ground speed, clearly this will change the standard flight design characteristics!
