Description

LEAVE THE PAVED PATH

ADVENTURE TOURER

The THETA ULS takes you out into undisturbed nature, far away from crowded launch sites. With minimal weight, maximum feel-good factor and tangible performance, you will be inspired to set out on new adventures, and be motivated to expand your skills. The new performance intermediate is based on the ultra-light construction of the OMEGA ULS. We expect the first deliveries end of April.

THETA ULS

ULTRA-LIGHT

ULS technology with a winner’s DNA

The new ultra-lightweight construction developed for the OMEGA ULS is now available to a larger group of pilots for the first time. The combination of the lightest materials and an extremely weight-optimised internal structure means that the THETA ULS is available from 3.1 kg.

EASY GOING

Safe flying feeling with performance

The THETA ULS combines two worlds by bringing together the performance of the IOTA DLS with the feel-good factor of the EPSILON DLS. As an ultra-light mid-B wing, it is an all-rounder for a wide range of pilots.

UNIVERSAL

Inspiration for new adventures

The right wing for pilots with many interests who like to explore new areas. The THETA ULS encourages your spirit of discovery and promises you freedom and independence on your flying adventures: whether for vol-biv, hike-to-fly tours or when travelling.

OPINIONS

TOM DE DORLODOTX-Alps Veteran and Adventurer

”THIS IS THE PERFECT WING FOR ADVENTURES. IT IS LIGHT AND BEHAVES EXTREMELY WELL, A GREAT ALL-ROUNDER. I THINK MANY PEOPLE WILL LOVE IT.”

TECHNOLOGY & FEATURES

ULTRA LIGHTWEIGHT STRUCTURE

ULTRA LIGHTWEIGHT STRUCTURE

 

The heart of the THETA ULS is the filigree internal structure, which was first developed for the OMEGA ULS. Benefitting from the experience of countless competitions, we have perfected maximum possible rib cut-outs (micro cross-ports) as well as the complex inner structure we call Sliced Diagonals. ULS also uses only the lightest materials including ”Nitinol-Rods”.

 

NEW PROFILE FOR MORE PERFORMANCE AND COMFORT

NEW PROFILE FOR MORE PERFORMANCE AND COMFORT

 

The new-generation profile has an optimised pressure distribution across the wing chord, for balanced pitch behaviour. This delivers high performance with reduced canopy tensioning, resulting in pleasant feedback by optimally absorbing turbulence. In addition, lift distribution, wingtip to wingtip, is more centred, with less lift at the wing tips and less tendency for the pilot to get pushed off course. This results in smoother, more comfortable flight behaviour.

 

EFFECTIVE PITCH-CONTROL-SYSTEM

EFFECTIVE PITCH-CONTROL-SYSTEM

 

Active flying using the C line level allows you to exploit the full performance potential of the THETA ULS. Modern pitch control by C-handles helps you do this. Control inputs are transmitted directly from C- to B-level so that the profile does not deform. This allows you to best adjust your angle of attack without sacrificing performance.

 

HIGH-TECH EDELRID PRO DRY LINES

HIGH-TECH EDELRID PRO DRY LINES

 

The THETA ULS line set is extremely length-stable and retains above-average tensile strength, even after many flights. Unsheathed Pro Dry lines are colour-coded and 60% more water-repellent than previous-generation lines.
