EXCELLENT REVIEW!!!!!! Couldn't agree more about the PHI Beat and its strengths. I truly love this glider. As a senior citizen and weekend warrior pilot, this glider is great for my type of flying. What they didn't say is that it also feels the air quite well without being too fidgety. It pulls forward into the thermals and resists collapses if you are spit out the edge of a bullety thermal. It is fairly easy to center in the thermal and stay in it, and it has excellent climbing ability, which makes me look really good in the air. (But if one more person says "You fly well

This conversational review format works really well. Keep doing more of these please.

Did a write up in the paragliding forum and this pretty much 100% resembles my report. Bloody brilliant wing, I was never so positively surprised by a wing.

Beat FTW! The legendary Heli machine and eater of the C's. At least those who are not on full bar ;)

during this season I have seen several beat`s in different regions, and my impression was all times the same, they are performing real good, nn weak, strong and windy conditions

Hi everyone, I need help deciding between two wings. I've been flying since 2018. My first wing was an Advance Alpha, followed by an Advance Epsilon. I have 276 flights and 96 hours of flying time, mostly focused on accuracy landings over the past two years. My Epsilon served me well, but it was time to move on.

I am thinking about buying a Beat because of great mid B performance and also because I believe it has fully sheathed lines??? ...partial un-sheathed lines on my current glider are an absolute magnet for any twigs, grass and being tangled into lots of little knots out of the bag.

I absolutely love the glider. The only downside side is that its name in French sounds exactly like bite, an incredible source of bad jokes.

Question for everyone: do you think this "Phi Beat" or the "Skywalk Arak" sail is more performing?

@keremgurses2725

Great review 🖤 i have just one question to all: i am planning to buy beat but i didn't decide about light version or not. I will start my acro training. Which one suits better? What is your thoughts? I mostly fly in Türkiye

Just the review I was waiting for. Thanks! I'm looking to get a light-weight mid-B, for hike-and-fly and basic xc. My two options at the moment are Arak Air and Beat Light (hope to be able to test them both soon). Can you compare the two? On paper they seem quite similar. I'm currently flying a Tenor (normal weight), which I like a lot, but I'm looking for something lighter, with a bit more climbing ability (in the light stuff) and a bit more glide (for crossings). Flying in the Alps, so it can get bumpy, and I'd prefer not to get to high-B yet, if I can get decent performance with a mid-B.
