Skywalk X-ALPS 6

Skywalk X-ALPS6: Elite Performance for High-Alpine Ambitions

The Skywalk X-ALPS6 is more than a paraglider; it is a high-performance instrument developed for the world’s toughest adventure race. For pilots who need to rely on every gram and every detail, the X-ALPS6 offers an unparalleled blend of efficiency and weight. At a mere 3.45 kg, this wing is optimized for grueling Hike&Fly stages where compact packing and effortless launch characteristics are non-negotiable.

Next-Gen 2-Liner Racing DNA

Building on the heritage of the POISON series, the X-ALPS6 utilizes a refined 2-liner level layout to minimize drag and maximize glide performance. The integrated B-steering system provides active, energy-saving control over the wing’s angle of attack while accelerated. This allows pilots to stay on the speed bar longer through turbulent air, converting bumps into altitude and maintaining a higher average speed during long cross-country transitions.

Precision Handling in Challenging Conditions

Despite its high-performance certification, the X-ALPS6 remains remarkably intuitive. It shares the playful and sensitive handling of the SAGE, allowing for effortless centering in tight, turbulent thermals. On launch, the ultra-light canopy rises cleanly even with minimal input—a vital asset when taking off from steep, technical mountain peaks. With advanced Shark Nose technology and 3D-Shaping, the wing maintains optimum internal pressure and a clean profile at any speed.
