Arak Air Skywalk

Team paragliders Oliver Teubert and Kilian Hallweger, took 1st and 2nd place in the German cross-country championship in the standard class with the Arak in 2019. They proved that the series has enormous performance potential. This new version makes it easy for you to exploit this potential thanks to its simplicity. If your objective is performance while retaining the ease of piloting an EN B wing, the Arak Air is just what you need.

Thewing 's technical characteristics enable flights beyond the 300 km mark. It features Skywalk's patented jet flap technology . During braking phases, the air is redirected from the lower surface to the upper surface of the wing, where it flows at a higher speed. The air thus propelled delays the separation of the upper surface flow over the range of incidence. The stall thus occurs later, the minimum flight speed is lower, and the pilot has more leeway in managing the angle of attack. This is particularly important in phases such as take-off or landing. The jet flaps also contribute to improved climb performance, as they allow you to turn more slowly in thermals, with little risk of a negative start.

The number of cells at the trailing edge is doubled, significantly increasing shape stability for improved aerodynamics. What's more, Sharknose technology helps distribute pressure across the canopy for a much more solid flying feel and substantial performance gains, especially when gliding over the bar. Finally, the precise calculation of the leading edge geometry and the addition of an extra strip of fabric reduce wrinkles in this sensitive part of the wing.
