EN-B light wing comparison: Hook 6 P vs Epsilon DLS vs Geo 7

Weight already sorts them out

When comparing three EN-B light wings, the scales already give a clear direction. The Hook 6 P weighs 3.15 / 3.40 / 3.60 / 3.90 / 4.30 kg in sizes 22 to 31. The Geo 7 weighs 3.38 / 3.62 / 3.84 / 4.05 / 4.36 kg in XS, S, MS, ML and L. The Epsilon DLS comes in at 3.55 / 3.80 / 4.05 / 4.30 / 4.60 kg from size 22 to 30. The choice is already shaped by what each brand prioritises.

Visible prices also help clarify the picture: Hook 6 P at €3,105.00, Geo 7 at €3,627.00 and Epsilon DLS at €3,901.50 as of 25 May 2026. The decision hinges less on a few euros and more on usage logic: carrying, travel, regular flying and the desire for a simple wing to fly.

Hook 6 P: featherweight progression

The Hook 6 P is the lightest of the three. Rid'Air presents it as a featherlight version of the Hook 6, with up to 25% less weight than the standard model. If your top priority is minimising pack weight while staying in an EN-B Low for progression, this wing sets the lowest bar.

This weight saving comes from a genuine light construction: Porcher Skytex 27 g fabric, Nitinol leading edges, aramid and Dyneema lines. It is therefore the most logical choice if you hike, travel or want a lighter setup overall. In return, it requires more care on rough ground and during folding.

Geo 7: light, but with a proper wing profile

The Geo 7 sits in the middle, and that is what makes it interesting. Ozone links it to the Buzz Z7 philosophy: a more compact and lighter wing, designed to keep ease of use, passive safety and regular flying. If you want a light wing that doesn’t feel like a niche product, this is the simplest interpretation of the three.

What it gains over the Hook 6 P—just a few hundred grams—is a very natural feel for frequent flying, light travel and coherent progression on easy cross-country flights.

Epsilon DLS: lighter, but very everyday

The Epsilon DLS sits at the top of the scale. Rid'Air summarises it well as the compromise between a daily-use wing and a hike-and-fly wing. This is the most useful reading key. Advance’s DLS philosophy isn’t to build the lightest of the three, but to lighten a true daily wing without pushing it into overly specialist territory.

If your flying is mostly local, regular, with thermals, first cross-country flights and the desire to keep a wing easy to take out often, the Epsilon DLS has strong coherence. On the other hand, if minimising weight on foot ascents is your main priority, it doesn’t naturally stand out.

What you really get with these grams

The Hook 6 P gives lighter carrying and a clear hike-and-fly progression approach. The Geo 7 offers the simplest compromise between travel, compact pack size and regular flying. The Epsilon DLS provides a lighter daily wing feeling rather than pure featherweight logic. A useful comparison isn’t about which wing is lightest, but what each gram brings you once you fly regularly.

Our simple take

• If your main goal is to carry less, the Hook 6 P is the most logical choice.
• If you want a light wing that fits easily into regular and mobile flying, the Geo 7 offers the most natural compromise.
• If you want to lighten up without leaving a very daily-use mindset, the Epsilon DLS is the clearest choice.
