AirDesign Rise 4
The Rise 4 is a high-end EN-B wing. Nevertheless, we were able to make the flying characteristics well balanced and forgiving. With the Rise 4 you get a really comfortable wing in this kind of class.

Description
AirDesign Rise 4
The RISE first of its name arrived on the market in 2012, the M size weighed 5.8 kg. Thanks to its design and chosen materials, the Rise 4 weighs 4.5 kg.
The increase of performance was mainly achieved by a modified profile and refined inner structures.
We added some cells for more profile consistency and chose material optimized to get a light canopy resulting in a low glider weight. Still, passive safety is striking higher than you would expect in this class.
The trailing edge looks optically cleaned by adding a brake-raff system.
The new designed riser has got a B-C control which is effectively working throughout the whole speed range.
We also added to the accelerator RONSTAN ball-bearing pulleys for a soft feeling at the speed bar.

Take Off Weight is considered as the flight-mass (including Pilot, Glider, Harness, Reserve, Gear…)
* 50-65kg is the standard payload, 65-72kg is an increased payload (both areas EN-B)

Duralight
Semi-light construction, mix of most robust materials where needed, lighter when not impacting overall strength and durability, for every pilot everyday use, everywhere.
Winglets
Winglet profile shape at tips, similar to modern airplanes. Enlarges the projected aspect ratio, improves performance by also reducing drag and enhancing directional stability.
Vortex Holes
Vortex holes help reducing the drag at wingtips and increase performance. Besides, they allow a continuous removal of dust and particles otherwise trapped inside the canopy. Also helping to deflate the wing when packing it.
S-Nose
Shark-nose type leading edge. Here the leading edge is formed by a unique S-shaped constrained rod, for optimized performance. The leading edge is aggressive, but remains light for easy take off and rigidity is optimized for a better glider feel.
Rigi-Rods
The clear and stiffer transparent rods are used mostly on performance wings – giving maximum stiffness for profile consistency. It requires a proper packing of the wing to durably ensure its form.
3D-Cut
All panels designed and cut according to state-of-the-art 3D technologies to improve profile consistency and control ballooning deforming, reduce wrinkles on 3D-formed shapes with soft materials. Cleaner surface is more performance.
Mini-Ribs
A clean trailing edge is key for reducing drag, improving performance. One way to do this is to reduce deformations, by adding short ribs for a more stable surface finish.
Razor Edge
A specific way to control the ballooning at the trailing edge. The thinner the trailing edge, the smoother the airflow, the lower the drag. That’s the aim of the razor edge, to channel out the airflow in the most efficient way.
Swivel brake links
In order to reduce the risk of line twists, the brake lines are equipped with precision-machined swivel connectors (not to be mounted together with low-friction rings without specific protection).
Unsheathed Lines
Air-Design is only using the best grades of Edelrid aramid lines. Smooth handling on the ground, strong, highly durable, and dimensionally stable. Line sets are designed and dimensioned to last as long as your glider with proper handling.
Low drag 13mm Aramid Risers
Clean, clear, efficient and light risers are equipping our gliders. With their racy look, they remain easy to handle, and improve aerodynamics.
BS pulley Connector
AirDesign gliders are designed to be reactive to “Brake-Shifting”. Pull the brakes more inward, you’ll turn tighter, pull outward, you’ll turn flatter. The pulley connector is specially dimensioned to allow the best Brake Shifting efficiency.
B/C control
3-liners can also be controlled with rear risers. However, pulling only the Cs will destroy the profile, (make it even more concave), and ultimately could bring the leading-edge incidence closer to collapse. By pulling straight down with the green strap forming our B/C systems, you’ll play only on the full glider’s incidence, reduce the drag while maintaining a clean profile.
