Alpenbrise 4m

The Alpenbrise is a really good looking slope soarer, and is intended to be a possible successor to the great Alpina. The stiff, light, construction gives the Alpenbrise complete freedom of the air and it will soar in the lightest of lift, while ballasted it has superb energy retention and aerobatic properties. With its own special shriek on fast passes, as the vortices are shed at the wingtips, the Alpenbrise has a real presence when flying.

Due to its excellent speed range and great thermal capabilities the Alpenbrise is also eminently suitable for Triangle GPS Sport Class contests.
