Pegasus 3
The Pegasus 3 is a fun, safe paramotoring wing designed for beginner/casual pilots who want to get in the air safely, every time. The Pegasus 3 is confidence-inspiring, with easy inflation and low takeoff speed boasting excellent passive safety characteristics.
Notes from GIN test pilot Laurent Salinas:
“Almost everyone buying a first wing likes to imagine that the wing should be both "hot" and "safe". But the reality is that safety is far more important. Beginners starting with wings 'to grow into' or featuring reflex profiles, often end up with broken propss, scraped knees or even worse.
Starting with the right wing means you will learn faster, and have a wider safety margin in a variety of conditions.
We have always believed good take-off characteristics to be the most important quality for a beginner wing. With the Pegasus 3, we were able to improve this even more, thanks to a new fabric developed by GIN and Myungjin. The new fabric is lighter but also more durable than standard fabrics and this improves inflation, take-off and all round handling. The wing comes up easy and straight in all conditions, and is super quick to start flying which is ideal in nil wind. Take-offs are always smooth and fully controlled.
Besides safety, the Pegasus 3 is still a versatile wing that pilots can really enjoy. You can confidently fly the Pegasus 3 in midday thermals, both with and without a motor. The controls are responsive yet progressive - it's never dull. The wing responds to your every command, but at the same time, it's still incredibly forgiving if you are over enthusiastic.
The Pegasus 3 is a versatile wing that will provide you many years of flying pleasure."

Is it for me?
The Pegasus 3 is one of the most modern beginner wings on the market. We highly recommend it for pilots who are cautious or conservative in their flying, if they're still trying to develop the skills and want things to be easy for a while, or if they're starting out in PPG with a little extra weight or a few extra years on them.
