Product Details
Pack your paraglider efficiently and effortlessly with the Gin Paraglider Compression Strap made by Gin Gliders. As supplied with some Gin wings, this simple, lightweight accessory is designed to help you compress your folded wing to the perfect size, and hold it all in place, making it much easier to slide into your paraglider inner bag or backpack.
Smart, Adjustable Design
The strap utilizes a reliable hook-and-loop fastening system for quick, slipping-free compression. The main body consists of approximately 140 cm of soft loop material, tipped with 15 cm of grippy hook material.
To use it, simply wrap it around your folded glider, thread the end through the durable rectangular plastic ring, pull it to your desired tension, and fasten it back onto itself. It holds your wing securely in place without adding bulky buckles or heavy hardware.
Versatile for Any Wing Size
Whether you are packing a full-sized tandem or a highly compressed mountain wing, this strap adapts to your gear:
- Maximum capacity: Fastens securely around larger wings with a maximum circumference of approximately 140 cm.
- Standard compression: Adjusts smoothly down to approximately 80 cm without needing to double the strap.
- Ultra-compact packing: For speed wings or highly compressed lightweight setups, simply wrap the strap around itself a second time to create an even tighter bind.
At just 35 grams, this strap is practically unnoticeable in your kit and folds down to a fraction of its size when not in use—perfect for hike-and-fly pilots where every gram counts.
