Puffin nu ook in zwart

As always at LittleCloud, we made a point to release a glider that surpasses its predecessor!

We used the Gracchio Mk2 as the working base, with some specific changes in the design to cope with the higher wing-loading.

With fewer cells, The Puffin is more balanced and more accessible.

Still, thanks to our incredible airfoil, wind penetration and efficiency have reached an incredible level.

Handling wise, you will experience real precision and progressivity!

Aspect ratio varies a bit along the sizes to keep the performance/accessibility/safety at its maximum.

Thanks to our unequaled experience in Mini-wings, this glider remains extremely accessible and tolerant for a lot of pilots, even though the technical data can look a bit extreme for such sizes/wingloadings.

The Puffin will provide as much fun as you’re willing to stand!

Pilots will choose their size according to the wind range they want to fly, bearing in mind that strong wind flying is not made easier or safer by the glider but mainly by the pilot’s skills!

The Puffin has LittleCloud DNA: pitch stable, sharp and precise handling, large brake range before stall points, extremely intuitive, important passive safety…

We implemented some new features specifically designed for using the glider in the sand:

A sand draining system allows sand to move out to the tips where it bleeds out through specific dirt outs.

We use ObritBlocks from Ronstan for the brake pulley as they seem to be the best solution against sand abuse.

Oh and by the way, you can use it for Hike and Fly or thermalling too 😉 It’s working as well!

HappyFlying!
