Markus Gründhammer and Toma Coconea both contributed significantly to the design and realisation of the CrossAlps, a lightweight design with D10 fabric.
CrossAlps has special line loops that reduce the air drag and special flares to evenly distribute load on the canopy. Precise stability tapes evenly distribute tension, thus grant high gliding performance and stability. CrossAlps can optionally be equipped with very light, aerodynamic Dyneema risers.
High performance and powerful extras for XC paragliding.
Ceramic rings are in the speed system and brake deflection. Mini-ribs are fitted for enhanced shape constancy and thermal handling.
