SONIC is an exclusive project totally destined to the "Acro" and "Freestyle" concept and destined to an experienced aerobatic group of pilots who are oriented to this new kind of paragliding.

SONIC is the evolution of the work developed by Andre Rottet and the pilots of the SOL aerobatic team. Many experienced pilots such as Renato "Curreca" Goncalves, Renato Lopez, Hernan Pittoco and Horacio Llorens have tested and flew SONIC.

The results during the development have already shown the potential of SONIC:

PILOT AND BEHAVIOR DURING THE FLIGHT

The Tracer is destined for an experienced and restricted group of pilots that pursue results in competitions and in long distance flights.

It is distinguished from other paragliders of this category by its whole efficiency: handling and an excellent result even when highly accelerated. Tracer will be fully enjoyed only if piloted by someone who is experienced in flying high performance paragliders. Its behavior during the flight, even being secure to the category, demands pilot knowledge in order to avoid undesirable situations.

An active handling is necessary to fly with this class of paragliders.

DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION

The layout is modern. It’s a 56 cells detailed construction, projected aspect ratio compatible with modern canopies and its small canopy area allow a total profile performance utilization which resulted in a much faster and agile wing - it has a prompt and sensitive response to the commands.

The calculation techniques and construction along with the materials used in our products result in a paraglider with no wrinkles nor depression. It could not be different with SONIC: a clean and smooth canopy.

• High inner pressure;
• Strong Reactions in extreme maneuvers;
• Direct and sensitive handling.

SONIC has a short and precise brake which allows a little use of the brake during the flight.

Construction characteristics

• Diagonal Ribs to reduce lines and weight;
• Carbon/Mylar Reinforcements;
• State of art canopy cutting;
• Clean Layout.

All construction materials have been carefully selected to ensure high durability and high level of security. All SOL gliders are made in the company's own DHV. certified factory.
