lines & bridles
The single-skin design with double-skin tips comes with a strong focus on stable flight and depower, making the Stash functional in a bigger range of winds and riding angles, while still having the lightest and smallest packing in mind for those seeking the pure sensation of gliding for miles.
The Stash has been fine-tuned over several months by our wing and kite designer Ken Winner in strong collaboration with our Downwind experts Finn and Jeffrey Spencer – making sure it’s not just an engine to get on foil but tackles the difficulties to make the end-goal of ultimate free-flight accessible to a broader audience.
Using special ultra-light 30g paragliding ripstop canopy, which flies earlier and stays in the air longer, packs down smaller and dampens gusts better for greater riding comfort, our team steered away from classic kite and wing ripstop canopy materials quickly. Sourcing thinner bridle lines to reduce drag and weight, and to further optimise packing was another key step in our Parawing-specific design.
The Stash combines the advantages of both worlds, single- and double skin in one design. A powerful and easy to pack single skin approach with closed-cell tips allowed our design team to achieve a gradual de-power through a simple move of your wrist, while the tips stay filled and in control at any time. The stabilised leading edge and the reduced ribs further optimise flying stability, drag and easy stashing.
Packing, sorting and re-launch of the Stash is made easy though three differently coloured bridle sections, a coloured mid-section of the leading edge, so you know where to grab for re-launch, and a colour on the ergonomic Carbon bar showing you which side to steer forward – all steps towards making the goal of free flight more approachable.
Ultimately, it’s about the sensation of True Foiling when your Parawing is nicely stashed away!
Recommended Board & Foil Setup
Don’t expect Parawinging to be as easy as Wing Foiling – it’s not!
Balancing on your board is more challenging without a more stable inflated wing in your hands, so we recommend using a bigger board especially for your first attempts.
Pumping up on foil is more legwork and we recommend the use of a bigger Glide foil, like what’s used in SUP Downwind Foiling. One of the great advantages over SUP Downwind Foiling is, that you’re able to get on foil with a significantly shorter board, such as the Skybrid – which is the perfect match! If you already have a Downwinder, that’s also perfectly doing the job – especially for your first runs.
To make your first sessions more successful, we have put together some recommendations depending on your weight and foiling level.
Key Features
WARNING / DISCLAIMER
Be aware of the risks using a Parawing.
- Bridle lines are thin and can get tangled around hands, fingers or other parts of your body, especially when caught in breaking waves, which we recommend avoiding. Once the Parawing catches wind and bridle lines are under tension, it can be difficult to get your hand or fingers untangled, which can cause injury. Make sure you practice and understand how to bring the Parawing down to the water to release tension – before going on the water.
- Most Parawingers use the wing without a leash to avoid tangling leash and bridle lines. Once you let go of the Parawing, it will float for a while on the water surface. Make sure to paddle to the wing before it will drop below the surface making it hard to find, as only the Carbon bar will float.
