Top of the agenda for Swing at the Stubai Cup in Austria in early March was the new Stellar RS. Just launched, this 2.5-line high EN B was available to fly. Designer Alessio Casolla wanted to create an “exceptional” high B, and the resulting glider targets XC pilots who want the maximum performance while retaining the security of the EN B class. Lightweight, it is aimed at “ambitious cross country hunters and hike-and-fly adventurers who want to be on the move in X-Alps style.” Also new were the Miura 2 RS (EN A/B) and the tandem Twin 3.
