Mini wing for Coastal Soaring, Freestyle and Paramotoring!

 

About the YOTi 3

 

The FLOW YOTI 3 is a mini paraglider designed for the most demanding
and challenging air.

This design has been refined from the Yoti2, which was made for the maximum fun factor.

An updated profile combined with new risers and plan shape offers better cell tensioning, making the Yoti3 more dynamic with better stability at high speeds. The awesome handling (which the original Yoti is known for) remains the same.

FEATURES:

• Advanced shark nose airfoil
• Light and durable materials
• Reduced line layout
• Trimmers and speed system
• Improved cell tensioning
• Excellent playful handling

TECHNOLOGY & FEATURES

 

LINE REDUCTION

 

Line optimisation reflecting drag reduction and ease of use. All lines are colour-coded.

SHARK NOSE

The shark nose profile offers enhanced stability, improved passive safety, better performance, and easier launch characteristics.

LIGHT AND DURABLE

Combining the best selection of materials available, we know the Yoti will offer the best relationship between weight and lifetime.

 

 

 

RAISERS

•  

The Yoti 3 is built with specially engineered risers where a combination of both trimmers and a speed system can be used separately or combined.

 

The Speed System can be used in a situation where the combination of extra speed and glide angle is needed. For example: Gliding past sinking air while on XC or gliding to a faraway LZ after the wind has picked up.

 

Trimmers are an important tool and can be used to adjust and tune the behaviour of the glider to suit the day or the flying style. Opening the trimmers will create a semi reflex on the profile, resulting in the glider flying faster but with a worse glide angle. The benefit of the reflex is the stability at speed, the glider will gain better pitch stability and the resistance against collapses will also improve.

With the trimmers open the Yoti2 will dive even deeper in turns and if you want to follow the contours of the terrains or carve in skies with sweeping turns, this is the right configuration.

 

We recommend all thermic flying to be flown with trimmers on neutral, as it is the most optimal setup in terms of speed/glide/sink rate/sweet handling.

 

Due to the combination of both a shark nose and a thick profile, Yoti2’s brake travel is quite long and there will be plenty of warning before she stalls. She is small and usually flown heavily loaded so be careful when flying her and remember she is a mini wing.

 

The configuration of fully open trimmers combined with and full speed bar is possible on the Yoti2. Under this configuration is where you can get the max speed out of the Yoti2 but only use it in an extreme scenario where you need the extra speed.
