Advance Epsilon DLS
The Epsilon DLS is a lightweight EN B wing. It's the ideal compromise between an "everyday" wing and a hike-and-fly wing. At only 4kg in size 26, the Epsilon DLS is among the lightest wings on the market. We recommend combining it with a reversible harness and a light rescue parachute for a coherent pack of around 8kg.

Detailed description
"Rid'Air Team's Opinion: The Epsilon is Advance's legendary wing, and this DLS (Durable Lightweight Structure) version is a complete success. It's lighter and more compact than ever, while remaining extremely robust for daily use. It's the number one choice for pilots who want to get into cross-country flying with maximum peace of mind and Swiss finishing quality."
Advance Epsilon DLS: The Joy of Flight, Simplified
The Advance Epsilon DLS is the 10th generation of this progression wing, which has become a global benchmark. Thanks to the concept DLS (Durable Lightweight Structure), Advance manages to reconcile two worlds: the lightness of a hike-and-fly wing and the durability of a classic wing. It is the ideal tool for discovering thermal flying and embarking on your first cross-country flights with complete confidence.
The Epsilon DLS offers intuitive and balanced handling. It provides excellent pitch stability, which immediately reassures the pilot in turbulent conditions. Its inflation behavior is exemplary: the wing rises smoothly without overshooting, a valuable asset on sometimes technical mountain take-offs. The optimized internal structure and the use of high-quality materials guarantee exceptional longevity, even for pilots who regularly practice ground handling.
This version also stands out for its compactness, greatly facilitating transport in a smaller volume bag. Whether for travel, recreational hike-and-fly, or simply for progressing at your local site, the Epsilon DLS offers an unparalleled package of passive safety and "fun" performance in the intermediate EN-B category.
The Epsilon DLS is an "Access" EN-B wing. It is perfectly suited for pilots fresh out of school or recreational pilots. For pilots seeking more cross-country performance with a similar weight, consider the Theta ULS.
