The UP Serac is the perfect top layer for cool mountain evenings, or middle layer for cold flights. Made from a stylish knit fleece, it doesn't just look good - it feels great too. 

The inside of the cloth has gone through a roughening process where it is scratched to form a soft and very comfortable surface which feels super soft against the skin, and makes the whole thing more windproof too. 

The material is 100% polyester, and the Serac comes in sizes M, L and XL.

Lighten UP your adventures

As a 2.5-liner hybrid, our ultra-light LHOTSE X offers the full potential of the B-Class for long distance flights - with an extremely small pack size starting at 2.7 kilos. The finely tuned handling and plenty of speed make it the ideal companion for mountain-enthusiastic pilots who are stepping up from the A-Class as well as advanced pilots who value safety reserves. Incidentally, the LHOTSE X is particularly handy for hike & fly and traveling thanks to our perfectly fitting CompressSmart packsack.

PACKING MADE EASY

The Parasleeve² is designed so that it may be used with ALL UP wings, and allows you to fold the "cigar" in several different ways once the bag is zipped closed. If you like to separate the wing from the harness when packing there's an integrated riser compartment in there for you, and if you don't well rest assured that the zipper is bidirectional so that you can let the lines out at the bottom.

We're making it in three different sizes to accomodate all wing sizes, and we're happy to say that the M size weighs only 460g. There are large mesh panels to allow your wing to breathe while stored.

• S ( 230cm )
• M (255 cm )
• L ( 280 cm )

The Parasleeve² is included with Summit XC series, Kangri, Trango X series. Meru, Guru wings, and can be ordered as an accessory for all other wings at the same time.

Safe, simple and yet excellently maneuverable - with the RIMO 2 you get a real all-rounder for training and a relaxed start to your paragliding adventure. High passive safety combined with a new level of development characterize the RIMO 2 as the latest generation mid-A wing. Roll stability and top speed have been further improved compared to the previous model. A newly developed mix of materials ensures robustness combined with moderate weight and a handy pack size. This makes getting into flying fun!

THE NEW STUFFSACK²

Put the glider inside, close the buckle, tighten the cord, close the zipper, and get yourself up to takeoff!

Ergonomic shoulder straps make it easy to carry, five compression straps allow pilots to quickly achieve a compact backpack, and the partial mesh outer layer lets the wing breath. 

At just 900g it ads very little bulk and weight to the harness while flying.

Stuffsack² works with all models and sizes. It is already available to order and it is delivered with our tandem gliders.

The horizon is not enough

The simultaneous release with the new TRANGO X is no coincidence, but shows once again how technologies from higher classes find their way into lower categories. Accordingly, the new SUMMIT X has inherited the genes of its "big brother" and, in addition to the brand new 2-liner hybrid line setting, also shows its family affiliation in the airfoil. The fact that this interplay of new technologies can now also find its way into the B-Class is due not least to the successful cooperation with a renowned technical university, which was significantly involved in the development of the new, more powerful and more rattle-resistant profile. Countless simulations and several prototypes later, we are proud to be able to usher in a new era in the B category with the new SUMMIT X!

SATISFY YOUR HUNGER FOR PERFORMANCE!

Trango! One glider. One name. A huge fan community worldwide!

After setting new class standards from generation to generation with the Trango predecessors, now finally follows a worthy and long-awaited successor with the Trango X!

If you have flown the Trango X-Race, then you can certainly imagine the mammoth task our R&D team faced when it came to turning the performance screw even further, but without losing sight of the core characteristics of the Trango, for which our performance wing is highly praised worldwide: Handling, stability, thermal characteristics, climb performance... to list just a few of the much praised top attributes!

After many prototypes and various design approaches, UP has once again succeeded in creating a wing that we are extremely proud to present to the large fan community as a worthy successor to the popular Trango series! The Trango X is here. Change to the fast lane! Now!

A TALLER, SLEEKER, MORE COMFORTABLE PACK

The new wings, with all their complex internal battens, are much longer when packed than they were just a few years ago. 

We have been busy making a backpack that reflects that change, and are proud of the new UP glider backpack! It is tall enough to accomodate your lovingly packed performance UP wing AND your bulky comp harness, it is much more comfortable to carry due to a better load distribution, and with heavy-duty YKK zippers and triple-reinforced sewing it is strong enough to last. 

Plus it is almost 500g lighter than the previous model!

The new bag comes in M and L. The M size is for beginner and intermediate wings/pilots with normal-sized gliders and harnesses, whereas the L size is for the performance-oriented gliders/pilots carrying more kit and larger harnesses. 

The M size holds 140l and weighs 1230g, while the L size holds 175l and weighs 1330g.

The M size is included with deliveries of Ascent 4's, Dena, Makalu 4's, and Kibo², and Summit XC4's in XS, and Trango X-Race in S.

 The L size is included as standard with Summit XC4 and Trango X-Races in all other sizes as well as for Meru and Guru. When you order a new UP wing you may ask to have the standard size replaced by the other one, for a small surcharge. 

Please note that we cannot change the backpack for you after you have received your new wing - but you are always welcome to purchase a supplementary pack from your UP dealer.

K2 5 TANDEM

Simply share your passion

Both professional and private pilots have long appreciated the K2 tandem series. New to the K2 5: even better performance in terms of glide angle and climb performance. The usual pleasant UP handling is of course still there, while weight and material mix have been optimized for long-term use.

No frills, more thrills

The KAILASH offers demanding alpinists a minimalist and yet coherent overall package, where fun and also a bit of thrill are never neglected. Low weight (1.95 kilos / size 16) and a simultaneously robust material mix ensure balance in the backpack, just as in the air. The equally successful compromise between manoeuvrability and safety is reflected in the EN/LTF C classification, which is mild for a miniwing. This leaves room to test yourself.

KANGRI X 

Light XC star

The KANGRI X (EN/LTF B) brings all the advantages of the hybrid construction as a 2.5-liner - hence the "X" aka "Cross" in the name - to the KANGRI range for the first time. Fans of hike & fly, bivouac flights, cross country and light luggage can thus look forward to more speed and an impressive glide angle. In addition to clever lightweight construction and a small pack size, attention has been paid to making the glider robust according to its area of use and to further refining its pleasant handling.

MISTI

magic brakes

AN ACRO ALL-ROUNDER

The Misti project started back in 2015. The goal was clear: build a trademark UP glider for the acro scene - a durable product that pilots love to fly. At the end of 2018, we went back to the drawing board with Ondrej Procházka to tease out the essential points of such an all-round glider; and build it. 

We were striving to come up with a glider that suits most pilots, starting with beginners. A wing that is as easy as the current "relaxed" acro gliders. In a big size, you can have it as a glider to enter the acro flying world. In addition, we ended up with such maneuverability and usable energy that the glider in a smaller size will capture the heart of advanced pilots. 

The project would not have had such a good outcome without the skills of our chief designer Franta Pavlousek. His many decades of glider development experience make the UP Misti a very complete and interesting glider to fly.

What's new?

In short: everything. Because behind the name TORRE lies UP's first 2-liner with EN/LTF C certification. The new airfoil of the wing and the reduced line setup minimize drag and maximize top speed and performance. Want to push the full gas and leave the others behind? No problem with TORRE. The glide ratio remains excellent across the entire speed range. As is typical for a 2-liner, turbulence can be handled very well by the pilot via the risers, allowing even the smallest updrafts to be converted into altitude. The stable canopy is very resistant to collapses and, even if they come, they are easy to solve for experienced pilots. This is where the safety reserve of the C-class comes into play. It also has winglets – a first for any UP glider in the range.

The winglets are easy to explain: they improve direction stability. This helps straight flight, especially accelerated. It also helps in spirals and, above all, when exiting them. Overall, TORRE is the even sportier alternative to our 2.5-liner TRANGO X. Both have the typical UP handling. Ultimately, personal preference is the deciding factor.
