2017 Coupe Icare

A whole Flybubble gaggle flew over to France to catch up on all the new products at the Coupe Icare Expo in St Hilaire, and got to spend time with some of the industry’s top product designers and people; Gin Seok Song of Gin, Hannes Papesh of new brand Phi, Clement Latour of Supair, Philippe Medicus of Nova, Andrej Kolar of Naviter and Flytec, Urs Haari of High Adventure, Vincent Del Medico of Syride, Arne Wehrlin of Skywalk, Joerg Ewald at Volirium, Bruce Goldsmith of BGD, Denis Cortella of Kortel, and many more...

Given the wealth of experience and knowledge at our disposal, we’ll be making the most of the information we picked up and sharing it with you over the next couple of weeks.

More than just a promotion for the next generation of products, we hope to inspire you with ways to take your flying to the next level next season, ultimately to fly further, more safely and with more fun.

Thanks, and happy reading, the Flybubble Team.

(Special mention to Valery Chapuis of Advance, for not only giving us the skinny on all the new products from the on-form Swiss brand, but also keeping us all dosed up on sufficient levels of caffeine to keep up with all of the stimulus - you are much appreciated!)
