Jaromir “Jarda” Masek, co-designer and test pilot at UP, tested the paraglider - planned as a lightweight EN-C - for its XC potential.
"I flew a 260 km FAI triangle from Antholz last week", wrote Jarda regarding feedback on our prototype, designed as an EN-C Light. We think that sounds really promising! By the way, we’ll reveal the name of the new model and its exact specifications this September at Coupe Icare 2026. It will join the UP product lineup for the 2027 season and weigh significantly less than our existing C-class two-liner, the TORRE.
