Advance OMEGA XALPS 3 paraglider review

Advance have been working on this ultralight racing wing for years. Constructing a 'two-liner' high performance paraglider is technically challenging. Making it ultralight as well? A task only for the brave. Yet here it is, the Advance OMEGA XALPS 3, and it looks strong, lean and whippet fast. But is this wing exclusively for professional X-Alps racers, or is it accessible for advanced pilots?

"You feel like you can go places" the exact opposite feeling I get on my ENA 🤣

This kind of handling was already on the Skywalk X-alps 2, I mean takeoff behaviour , groundhandling. Also Advance X-alps1 has superb takeoff behaviour which is my current wing until I get a lot of money for Version 3. :D Superb review if not the best on this channel.

Greg, being honest, yes 2-liners feel solid and "more safe" until it dismounts on half/full speed bar and you need to control the rodeo. I really wouldn't recommend a wing like this without acro experience, it not that you have done some SIV's, you've to master stalls and backfly to be able to handle an ugly collapse on this wings 😅 And I actually fly acro and 2-liner, but when you stall wings like this is not that easy, specially in incidents!

Hi Greg, have you ever had a close one on the OXA3 so far? Are you still so much in love with it as at the beginning ? Or more...? Is it really so safe??? Regards Aro.

Hi Greg, Thanks for your great reviews. After 2 seasons on my OXA2 23 I'm considering a change to the OXA3 maybe, but having lost weight would be about 85kg on the 22 so quite near the top, can I ask does the glider still float well this loaded (for UK conditions)? Many thanks, Steve.

Hi Steve :-) I you like OXA 2 then you will LOVE the OXA 3! We currently have the OXA 3 in stock in sizes 22 (and 23) flybubble.com/advance-omega-xalps-3 Cheers!

You are more confident on a two liner ? Than a three liner ? I just bought an ion 5 light ...? Did I buy the wrong glider ?

@StefsEngineering 5 жыл бұрын

I don't think so, he is talking about EN-D gliders, not low-mid EN-B. Very nice wing that Ion5 light! I just finished a 2 week holiday in the alps with the ion5 (non light version) and love it!

@greghamerton4422 5 жыл бұрын

yes, and Stef's right, I'm talking about a 3 liner EN D or C and even some high B to a 2 liner EN D but it's only relevant when you have the pilot skills / experience that match EN-D. Because if you get onto it with EN B skills, you get an EN FFS. Given a choice of all the wings I could fly in any given rough air day, I would choose the OXA3. It's the whole package of speed, glide and solidity that make it safer.

Well, we have an Ozone Mantra M7 in stock now (a pilots bought one but wasn't so happy with it so traded it in for an Omega Xalps 3) in my size so I'll take it out at some point to see what it's like... I can't guarantee a review (already very busy!) but I will try...

@greghamerton4422 5 жыл бұрын

no, just very happy they finally made the wing I wanted! I don't make any money from glider sales, or brand associations - I just review the wings. I pay the same for this wing as I would for any other brand, so my choice is from a level playing field.
