Description

LEGENDARY “YETI” TAKE OFF BEHAVIOR

The Yeti 6 preserves the legendary launch behaviour that pilots have long appreciated, delivering a remarkably smooth and dependable take-off experience.

It offers effortless inflation in all wind conditions and across every type of terrain, rising cleanly and progressively overhead with minimal input. This consistent and forgiving launch characteristic inspires confidence, whether setting off from steep alpine slopes, technical mountain take-offs, or school slopes.

Students welcome

The Yeti 6’s handling was trimmed and tuned with students in mind. The goal was to have a more damped character than its predecessor, whilst retaining enough of the fun factor for more experienced mountain pilots. Brake travel is long and progressive yet has a direct feel, and there is zero tendency to enter a spiral dive in case the pilot inadvertently pulls too much brake. It’s a pleasure to teach with the Yeti 6 and students with an interest in hike ’n’ fly need not look further for a post-school wing.

Same capacity

The Gin Yeti 6 retains the same packed volume as its predecessor while being carefully refined to rank among the most compact wings available on the market. It has been optimised with a strong focus on reducing bulk without compromising performance.

The leading edge features Nitinol reinforcements, which simplify the folding process and help minimise the wing’s packed volume, making it exceptionally practical for hike-and-fly and lightweight adventures.

UPDATED DESIGN AND COLOUR OPTIONS

2026 UPDATE

The canopy design has been updated to align with the current Gin Gliders wings design. Inspired by the latest blade, the Yeti 6 adopts a cleaner, more contemporary visual identity, strengthening coherence across the range. It is available in three new standard colour schemes: Turquoise, Lime and Orange, with the additional option of custom colour configurations on request.

Yeti compress bag

Also available for the Yeti 6 is a specially designed compress bag. The Yeti compress bag folds 5 times, ensuring the most compact volume possible and a perfect fit in your rucksack for those fast or long hikes.

40L X-lite rucksack

This 40L rucksack is a perfect match for the Yeti 6 and the Yeti compress bag. Loaded with essential alpinism features such as ice-axe, ski and walking pole holders, drinks pockets, stowage straps and ergonomic shoulder straps, the X-lite rucksack is built for mountain adventure.
