What Independence has to offer

Having been associated (local suppliers) and flown Independence Gliders exclusively for several years, we would recommend them to pilots of all skill level. We have a number of special offers for the pilots who do their training with Windmaster Paragliding Academy.


INDEPENDENCE OFFERS for Basic Licensed Pilots:

Avalon DHV1/1-2: glider specially designed for pilots wishing a maximum of passive security and flying pleasure without making the slightest compromise regarding handling. Its excellent flight characteristics push the Avalon into the glider choice for beginner pilots or trainees as well as experienced pilots flying infrequently.

Dragon 2 DHV1-2: Pure flying pleasure! The Dragon2 is a smooth flying glider with great handling and very sensitive feedback. She is designed for new passionate pilots seeking for a glider for their first paragliding years and also for more experienced pilots who are flying just for the fun of flying. She is brilliant for XC flights at a high safety level.




Acron DHV2: The Acron represents the passage to DHV2 certified gliders. This glider is for pilots wanting to fly high-performance without being obliged to fly a competition wing. The Acron allows for fine and precise flying in thermals and it communicates to the pilot, ensuring the pilot the gliders full resources. Therefore the Acron is ideal for XC-flights, serial class competitions and performance.

INDEPENDENCE OFFERS a Sport Pilot:
eXCalibur DHV2-3: as King Arthur’s sword the Excalibur is sublime and majestic when in flight. This rare glider has the ability to turn flat inside a thermal or fly straight at a max speed of 58km/hr on trajectory. This is a glider that only gives its maximum!

This glider is incredible with Acro-flying, try the dynamic SAT and truly appreciate the eXCalibur!

Other INDEPENDENCE offers:
Seven-UP: with optimisation of the opening speed and pendulum stability has advanced the field of security. 7-up is the result of two long yeas of intensive research and is a completely new concept of rescue parachute. The shape enabled INDEPENDENCE to erase a lot of drawbacks present on conventional round parachutes and reduce canopy volume and induces a completely different opening sequence. The opening phase starts once suspension lines are stretched. The opening time is thus shorter and the opening shock is not as violent. Due to six outer parts of the rescue has well-defined boundary layers the pendulum movements of the parachute are highly decreased. DHV: confirmed the Seven-up offers a never reached opening velocity and pendulum stability and also an incredible sink rate.

Joker Reserve and Annular, the defined ring shape and use of very specific material enable them to support 35% higher weights as other rescues with the same surface. Resistance values established by the DHV are 40% higher than the maximum flying weight. Sink rate is lower than the critical 6,8m/s. An inner container specially dedicated to opening at low speeds, has been designed.
The Annular is available in 5 sizes.
