stability needed for all-out XC flying. The TIGRA shares the CURE 3’s 70-cell planform and 6.7 aspect ratio, but takes a very different approach with a completely new arc, internal structure and material mix developed specifically for lightweight performance flying.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe sail is Porcher Skytex 27 II on the top surface and Dominico D10 on the lower surface. Inside, a clever hybrid combination of nitinol and plastic rods balances durability, packability and structural precision. The result is a wing that launches easily, climbs efficiently and delivers playful, confidence-inspiring handling with excellent glide performance and coordinated turning behaviour.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe TIGRA is pure flying pleasure for all XC pilots who prefer lightweight equipment.

It is aimed at pilots who enjoy moving fast through the mountains – whether that means hike-and-fly races like the X-Alps, X-Pyr and Bones to Fly; sports-class competitions such as the SRS, or long vol-biv adventures deep into the back country.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe wing sizing is a bit smaller than the CURE 3 to better fit pilots flying lighter harness set-ups and no ballast, and of course the glider itself is lighter.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis agile cat is an efficient climber, sharp and precise in the air.

Lightweight equipment changes the way pilots move through the mountains, and we wanted the Tigra to feel efficient, agile and enjoyable throughout the entire adventure – from the hike up to the final glide home.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe Tigra has a slightly flatter arc than the CURE 3 with an aerodynamic profile that is optimised for performance.

The A-riser, which bears most of the load, is 12mm, and the back riser is a skinny 7mm. Softlinks are standard. A maillon on the AR3 makes it easy to make trim adjustments if necessary. The brake pulleys are brand new, lightweight Allen ball-bearing pulleys and the brake legs are replaceable – in case the pulleys ever need changing or the pilot prefers a different length.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/blockquote\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"padding-left: 40px; text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e- Bruce Goldsmith, designer\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMaterials\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"table table-sm table-option-no-border-top\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eTop surface\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePorcher Skytex Classic II 27g\/m²\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eTop Surface Leading Edge\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePorcher Skytex 32g\/m²\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eBottom surface\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDominico Dokdo D10 (25g\/m²)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eInternal structure\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePorcher Skytex hard finish 27g\/m²\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eReinforcing\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNitinol \u0026amp; plastic rods\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eTop lines\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eEdelrid 8001U-50,70,90 (unsheathed Kevlar)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eMiddle lines\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eEdelrid 8001U-50,70,90,130 (unsheathed Kevlar)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eLower lines\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eEdelrid 8001U-130,190,280,340 (unsheathed Kevlar)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eBGD product registration\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eRegister your BGD product \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca title=\"Register your Advance product\" href=\"https:\/\/www.flybgd.com\/en\/paragliders\/warranty-8-0-0.html\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"\u003ehere\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cspan\u003e.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eDownloads\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eManual\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.flybgd.com\/read.php?type=fichier\u0026amp;id=655\u0026amp;lang=en\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eMANUAL V1\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Bruce Goldsmith Design","offers":[{"title":"S \/ Bengal","offer_id":57490833801598,"sku":"BGD-TIGRA-S-BENGA","price":3582.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"S \/ Siberia","offer_id":57490833834366,"sku":"BGD-TIGRA-S-SIBER","price":3582.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"M \/ Bengal","offer_id":57490833670526,"sku":"BGD-TIGRA-M-BENGA","price":3582.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"M \/ Siberia","offer_id":57490833703294,"sku":"BGD-TIGRA-M-SIBER","price":3582.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"ML \/ Bengal","offer_id":57490833736062,"sku":"BGD-TIGRA-ML-BENGA","price":3715.83,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"ML \/ Siberia","offer_id":57490833768830,"sku":"BGD-TIGRA-ML-SIBER","price":3715.83,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"L \/ Bengal","offer_id":57490833604990,"sku":"BGD-TIGRA-L-BENGA","price":3715.83,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"L \/ Siberia","offer_id":57490833637758,"sku":"BGD-TIGRA-L-SIBER","price":3715.83,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0914\/2973\/2734\/files\/bgd-tigra-flybubble-shop-13.jpg?v=1780302796","url":"https:\/\/flybubble.com\/products\/bgd-tigra","provider":"Flybubble","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
