30/10/2004 | Very good wing! I don't have much experience (1.5 year) but the glider handles nice and easy, good on towing (no yaws). Just one thing is not so pleasant but I think most glider act like that, it's when you approach landing don't take too much speed (unless you VG is pulled enough)because glider starts to yaw (Holland step - your glider's nose draws 8 -like shape), if you do so pull your VG (polispast) more. ;) But the glider is very good.
