New lightweight Sirocco
The Sirocco is a light weight paramotor-specific wing based on the successful Speedster. It incorporates all of our knowledge learnt from the development of our lightweight paragliding range, along with the experience of our world championship winning PPG design team to bring a new concept to the powered market – lightweight. Weighing in on average 1.5 kg lighter (depending on size) than the Speedster, the Sirocco retains the same levels of comfort, performance, speed and stability but with noticeably better handling and improved inflation behaviour, especially in nil wind. Read more about the new Sirocco here.
