XCertina bag

---

It’s an accepted fact nowadays that the way you pack and store your paraglider directly affects its longevity and performance. Careless packing creases and damages the crucial Mylar sections that reinforce the internal cell walls at the front of the wing. These sections are crucial in forming the clean leading edge profile that your glider needs to get the maximum performance out of its design. Concertinaing your wing is the surest way to protect the integrity of your leading edge, but until now it’s been an awkward and time consuming task that is difficult on your own and almost impossible in a strong wind.
The new XCertina Bag is the quick and easy solution to the problem. It’s quicker than the conventional packing system and retains the longevity and performance of your wing over time. It’s the easiest way to pack up in a strong wing, and better still it’s the simplest and quickest way to unpack and get ready to fly.

IT’S AS SIMPLE AS:
-Bunch your wing as usual and drop it on top of the open bag
-Gather all the Mylar together and fasten together with straps
-Stuff the rest of the wing in to the bag any way you like
-Zip up the bag
-Roll it up and put it away
-Laugh at your mates who are still struggling with their wings in the breeze

WHAT THE EXPERTS SAY
“Concertinaing your wing keeps the Mylar reinforcing from getting creased and gives better inflation and high speed stability. Plus you’ll maintain a better second hand value on your wing.”
Bruce Goldsmith, 2007 World Champion

“If the leading edge reinforcements are wrinkled or broken the glider’s inflation will be worse, and you could lose some performance too. We strongly advice this packing method if the glider has Gin’s Rigifoil or Rigifoil Max system. Once you’re good at packing this way your glider will pack away more compact and smaller!”
Eric Roussel, General Manager, Gin Gliders
