Paramania wing testing with the Zenith

Posted on August 20, 2012 in Dean Eldridge   

After a very successful Paramania testing session in the south of France with the new GTR22 wing, I hopped over the Pyrenees to continue testing at altitude with my great friends the Guerra family (Paco Sr. Paco Jr. and Javi.) All were very impressed with the new Zenith 200 which they hadn’t seen in the flesh before.

So all this preparation and testing is ahead of the World Championships in Marugan, Spain, just an hour north of Madrid which is where I am now. It’s high up here (3000+ feet), hot and very windy in the mid part of the day. However, all the recent flying activity has paid off with this mornings test flights in varying conditions going superbly with everything functioning well and feeling very ‘complete.’ Just a few minor tweaks to make this evening and then I’m all set. Problem is, there’s still another 4 days afterwards before the competition kicks off and I’m ready NOW!!
