A New Generation of Versatile and Lightweight Paragliding Wings
This used Step X wing is available in size ML and color Earth. It has completed 6 outings for a total of 10 flights.
The STEP X is a paragliding wing that combines lightness and durability and offers excellent performance for pilots. It represents an evolution in the range of EN-B+ wings and the STEP series, incorporating the best elements of its predecessors into a new generation of wings.

The perfect balance between lightness, durability and performance
The Step X is an EN-B+ rated paraglider. This new-generation wing is positioned at the crossroads of lightness and durability, without compromising performance. The STEP X is aimed at recreational pilots who wish to equip themselves with an EN-B sport wing to go further in cross-country flying, while continuing to enjoy the pleasures of Walk & Fly.
The Supair development team used a wide range of materials to create a wing that is as light as it is strong. To achieve this, particularly exposed areas are fitted with robust, durable materials, while less stressed areas benefit from lightweight materials for significant weight savings with no impact on the wing's lifespan. STEP X lets you unleash your full potential both on and off the ground.
There are several reasons for the STEP X's high performance. Indeed, the design of this lightweight parag lider has been extensively reworked and optimized compared to its predecessors. Firstly, we can mention the addition of a tension band located between the B and C lines. This band improves the surface finish while widening the wing's speed range, giving you precise, agile and reassuring handling.
In addition, the new layout of the diagonals optimizes the distribution of forces across the profile, ensuring that the wing holds up better over time, and therefore lasts longer.
Finally, the new line branching reduces the overall line length. This also improves performance by significantly reducing drag.
Smooth, reassuring handling
The behavior of theSTEP X parag lider is described as safe and reassuring. Its smooth, intuitive handling enables the paraglider pilot to maximize the rate of climb in thermals. This makes it possible to go further without wasting energy on unnecessarily complex piloting. This is where the STEP X really stands out from its EN B + competitors on the market. It's all about pleasure and safety. The wing doesn't try to compete with an EN-C, but gives you the means to pursue your progress towards performance with complete confidence. The STEP X is the logical continuation of an entry-level EN-B such as the LEAF 3 or LEAF 3 Light, and gives you everything you need to prepare for the transition to EN-C.
