Skywalk Tequila6 – EN B

£3,448.95

The TEQUILA is our sporty intermediate wing designed for ambitious aviators after training, recreational pilots and XC beginners. Legendary for six generations.

This intermediate paraglider combines surprisingly easy flight characteristics with outstanding performance. Even record-breaking pilots rely on our well-balanced EN-B wing, just like flatland ace Armin Harich did in 2014. His unique 300 kilometer flight across Germany, from Heidelberg in the west to just before the Austrian border in the east, impressively demonstrated what our TEQUILA is capable of.

The new TEQUILA6 continues this tradition.

Description

Flight chracteristics

Thanks to its user-friendly line setup, preparations for takeoff and groundhandling are effortless. The canopy rises stably and consistently above the pilot during the inflation phase, without overshooting.

Compared to its predecessor, the TEQUILA6 stands out with its sportier character. Dynamic flight maneuvers become a delight, and the bank angle is precisely controllable. The wing remains extremely stable throughout and provides you with understandable feedback. The initially light control pressure increases linearly and becomes noticeably firmer just before the stall.

With progressive handling, you have excellent control over the wing and receive clear feedback through the brakes. Even in demanding flight conditions, the TEQUILA6 is easy to control thanks to its simple and intuitive handling, enabling you to enjoy long, fatigue-free flights.

Performance is easily accessible thanks to its smoothness and enhanced flight characteristics. Compared to the previous model, we have significantly improved the TEQUILA6 performance-wise through a new design and advanced manufacturing technology. This benefits not only experienced recreational pilots but also up-and-coming aviators who aim to progress from training to accomplished long-distance pilots. The TEQUILA6 is easy to center in thermals, allowing for effortless and efficient circling, even in challenging conditions. Its sporty yet comfortable damping provides a sense of safety and trust.

HOW DOES THE TEQUILA6 FLY?

Even during extreme maneuvers, the wing exhibits very forgiving flight characteristics. We have paid special attention to the ease of operating descent aids. Pilots should not have to compromise when they need to descend quickly. Steep spirals are easy to initiate and exit. The ears fold back effortlessly with a pull on the split A-risers, without fluttering, resulting in significant descent rates.

For the TEQUILA6, we have opted for an especially robust material combination. This wing is especially recommended in countries with rough launch sites, due to its durable materials and its ability to withstand mechanical stress.

Our conclusion: The TEQUILA6 is the ideal wing for pilots for whom EN classes A, B, C, and D are secondary. It allows for self-assured progress like no other paraglider. The sixth generation of the TEQUILA combines the joy of sporty flying with outstanding performance, making long-distance flights an absolute pleasure. Discover it for yourself!

JET-FLAP Icon

JET FLAPS

Our JET FLAPS extend the green arc as you approach the stall point, which substantially increases safety and also improves climb performance.

SHARK NOSE

Together with a corresponding wing design, the shark nose technology improves pressure distribution in the canopy substantially. Advantages: much more solid flying feeling and substantial performance gain, especially when gliding on bar.

3D-SHAPING

A precise calculation of the leading edge geometry and the installation of an additional strip of fabric reduce wrinkling in this sensitive part of the glider. Advantages: exact wing shape, more performance.

SAND RELEASE SYSTEM 2.0

Porous openings of the profile ribs at the trailing edge ensure that sand and dirt in the glider are automatically guided to the wingtip where they can trickle out. This helps preserve the material and “relieves” the trailing edge.

MINI RIBS

Doubling the number of cells at the trailing edge increases its shape stability substantially. Advantage: fewer vortices improve the aerodynamics and with it the performance.

C-WIRES

Nylon wires sewn into the glider over the anchor points of the C-level lines. Advantages: better load distribution, reduced drag, more performance.

RIGID FOIL

Nylon wires keep the leading edge and the profile in shape and ensure a more constant ram air pressure. Advantages: better take-off behaviour and more performance.

SMART LINK SYSTEM

Color coded seams on the risers to ensure that the risers are connected correctly and without being twisted. red = left; blue = right
