Ease Meets Fun

The Elise is a lightweight, compact EN A paraglider — perfect for new pilots fresh out of training or anyone who enjoys relaxed, recreational flying. Combining top-level passive safety with responsive, enjoyable handling, it's a dependable wing you can count on for your adventures, hikes, or even light cross-country flights.

Smooth Starts, Every Time

Getting airborne is simple with the Elise. Inflation and launch are incredibly easy in any condition, even by EN A standards. Its behavior is smooth, stable, and naturally self-correcting in all directions.

Fun That Flows

In the air, the Elise continues to impress. It's forgiving yet far from boring — the handling is responsive and playful, making thermalling a real pleasure. The wing subtly leads you into lift while remaining highly controllable, so you can fly with confidence and ease as you grow.

Compact Design, Lightweight Build

Every detail of the Elise has been fine-tuned for minimal weight and pack size. The leading edge includes Nitinol rods for compact folding, while the internal structure and line plan are designed for efficiency. The result: a light, easily packable wing with no compromise in flight performance.

More Flexibility with Extended Weight Range

The Elise is EN A certified with an extended weight range, giving you more freedom. Fly it mid-range for a calm, confidence-boosting experience with great climb rates, or load it toward the top of the range for more dynamic soaring or to carry extra gear, all while staying in control.

Optional Dyneema Risers

Want to go ultra-light? You can choose optional Dyneema risers, which cut about 200g from your pack weight compared to the standard setup — ideal for hike-and-fly missions.
