Description

AirDesign SuSi 4

The SuSi concept has proven over the years to be light, durable, safe and fun. Achieving EN-A ratings at normal loadings for the SuSi 4 opens up new opportunities for teaching as well. So, the SuSi 4 will also replace the Eazy Superlight in AirDesign range. With the certification from A to D depending on the size and wing load it is a great toy for all kind of pilots, same all fun from beginner to expert and pro.

The past 5 years, the Susi 3 was a role model in its class so not only AirDesign kept all the good things like agility, handling, loading options, speed, durability, versatility – but AirDesign have managed to improve it all on the SuSi 4.

How small can it get?

SuSi 3 16 was the smallest EN-B certified glider in the world, now SuSi 4 14 definitely takes the lead (it’s only 12.18m2 projected)! And SuSi 4 18 is certified EN-A… AirDesign is definitely the specialist for small, certified gliders. There is always a SuSi your size, whether you want to fly fast and furious, or smooth and peaceful whatever your weight is.

What has improved?

  • Better starting behavior
  • More stable in full speed
  • More balanced feeling overall
  • EN-A for size 18-26

Construction & features

  • Double coated Skytex, doubled seams and etching tape on edges, new nose guard patches: robustness is the key.
  • Unsheathed Aramid but color-coded lines! Solidity has never been so easy to untangle.
  • Shark nose with unbendable Nitinol rods not only to save weight and increase robustness, but also to help for a more compact folding… To slip it more easily into your tiny rucksack.
  • On the leading edge, ground attachment loops help to prevent the paraglider from slipping on a steep and/or slippery slope (snow).
  • Seamless razor edge with mini ribs: all seams are internal for a cleaner surface.
  • Choice of comfy 12mm aramid or Superlight dyneema risers.
  • New BC riser control system for better control and stability at high speeds.

Designer’s notes

“Again, the story repeats. The SUper SImple glider runs into its 4th generation. Development prolonged with tons of innovations like the BC-control and ratings in the EN-A. And still offering its now infamous flying sensation. I am stoked to have been able to redefine this glider and widen the usability of the wing again.
I remember the first generation of the SuSi which had no certification (only load-tested). I built it only for myself because I wanted a wing for hike & fly which should be light, simple but performing.
Today it still offers its typical flying sensations, it’s more robust than ever, and pilots all around the world can rely on the SuSi like they do since so many years!”
