~50 flights, no issues, reserve parachute already installed and ready to fly. Selling only because life just got a lot busier we had a baby!
This is a complete, ready-to-fly beginner/progression paragliding setup: a well-regarded EN-A wing paired with a comfortable, feature-rich reversible harness. Everything here has done its job faithfully for 50 flights without a single issue I just don't have the time to fly it anymore.
What's Included
1. U-Turn Emotion 3 Size S A EN-A / LTF-A certified wing built specifically to be the "perfect wing for beginners" that stays fun long after school U-Turn designed it to combine genuine passive safety with surprisingly good glide performance for its class (it even set a benchmark 200km flight in EN-A hands).
Certification: EN-A / LTF-A (top passive-safety class)
Takeoff weight range (size S): ~6085 kg
Cells: 36 | Flat area: 25.5 m² | Flat aspect ratio: 5 | Glider weight: ~5.2 kg
Built from Dokdo 30/20 cloth for a good balance of low weight and abrasion resistance
Color-coded risers (Pilot Assistant System) for fast, easy setup and hook-in
Manufacturer ID tag sewn into the wing showing model, size, color, and serial number (see photos)
Note: this wing does not currently carry a printed FSVL (Swiss Free Flight Federation) registration number if you plan to fly it in Switzerland, you'll need to register it yourself, which is a simple administrative step
2. Advance Progress 3 Reversible Harness & Rucksack A hugely popular all-in-one harness that unzips into a hiking rucksack for the walk up and back into a full flying harness at launch genuinely useful for hike & fly as well as everyday thermal flying.
Air-Foam Hybrid-Protector: foam-ribbed back protection that self-inflates within about 60 seconds of unpacking, so you're protected from the moment you're ready to launch
Integrated under-seat reserve container
Edelrid FORAS carabiners lightweight, side-opening, twist-lock design with anti-twist securing and a 23kN breaking strain
Carbon speed bar included
Ergonomic mesh rucksack straps, adjustable lumbar support, and extended leg pads for comfort both hiking and flying
3. Rescue / Reserve Parachute Already packed and installed in the harness's integrated under-seat reserve compartment ready to fly as-is. As with any reserve, it's worth having it repacked as part of the recommended check-up below (reserves need periodic repacking regardless of use).
4. Bonus Daypack A second, smaller backpack (branded "Turn") is included handy as a spare bag for flying accessories, snacks, or everyday use.
Condition & Important Notes
Flown roughly 50 times total no incidents, no damage, no issues encountered
The full setup (wing, harness, and reserve) has not had its annual check recently and would benefit from one before your first flight this is standard practice for any used paragliding equipment (porosity and line-trim check for the wing, webbing/carabiner check for the harness, and a reserve repack).
As noted above, the wing does not have an FSVL registration number printed on it yet.
Why I'm Selling
Simple reason: we just had a child, and between that and everything else, I haven't had the time to fly. This gear deserves to be in the air, not sitting in a bag.
