Dudek's Run&Fly2 is an ultralight, ultra-packable glider that opens up the possibility for you to summit at sunset and return to the trailhead before dark. Preserving the effortless launch and flight characteristi..

Designed by renowned pilot Jean-Baptiste Chandelier, the PACE shares its design heritage and staggeringly light specifications with the single-surface Run&Fly wing from Dudek; however the PACE is ..

The theory that "what goes up, must come down" hasn't been disproven. So, if we must come down, Dudek's Run&Fly, designed as the world's first glider under 1 kg, is an excellent tool of choice for the job. From the remote ranges of Alaska to the technical mixed climbs of Chamonix to the high peaks of New Zealand, the Run&Fly has earned its place as the trusted companion of ..

The Spanish-Swiss paragliding manufacturer Niviuk states that their name is an Inuit phrase meaning "the tenderness inspired by being close to something small."

With its featherweight canopy fabric and unsheathed Aramid sus..

Missions that involve moving swiftly can be dependent on cutting grams wherever possible. Weighing in astonishingly low on the gram counter, the Ozone F*Lite 2 doesn't weigh much more than a swig of water but has the potential to take you into the mountains much further than you thought possible. At first glance, it might be mistaken for a fancy grocery bag; closer inspection revea..

A wing's volume and packability are a chief concern of many hike-to-flyers, so it begs that the harness should follow suit.

This sleek, slate-grey sky hammock pairs well with any minimalist hike-to-fly kit, keeping you safely and comfortably susp..

For some adventures, minimalism is the name of the game. The SLEEVE harness from Skywalk happily supports those adventures while gently cradling your buttocks. The split-leg, high-suspension design means more roll-stability compared to a seat-board harness that amplify your weight shifts when paired with lightweight wings. But best of all, the harness packs down incredibly small an..

The Skywalk PERMAIR airbag accessory is a lightweight addition for optional back protection. Quickly and easily attaches to the CORE, the Gemini of harnesses, and inflates on launch using your lungs or the included inflation bag.

A dark start that leads to a summit sunrise is worth the squeeze, and getting there efficiently by packing smartly is priceless. Ozone's Ozo 2 boasts a running-inspired vest front and close-fitting design that resembles an ergonomic mountain running pack. With a single zip-and-flip motion, the pack is transformed into a fully certified flying harness. The reversible pack-and-harnes..

One of the lightest and most compact reserve parachutes on the market, the Skywalk TAPA X-ALPS precludes all excuses to leave your backup behind.

All three available size..

Smart storage and carry systems can be the difference between an efficient launch and a mess of crisscrossed lines.

Simply place your rosette on the open bag, gather your cells into a stack in the center, and lift the edges while tucking in your canopy fabric. As you pull the drawstring closure, air escapes the canopy, and the trailing edge gently and evenly pack..
