A wing built to meet the challenge of lightweight and committed alpine flying
Designed for mountain enthusiasts who prefer flying over ridges rather than hiking them down, the EN C Kailash mini wing combines lightness, precise control, and reliable behavior. Its compact and durable design makes it an ideal tool for experienced pilots seeking intensity and autonomy on technical or remote routes.
Materials built to last
Equipped with a reinforced leading edge in Skytex 27 Classic II, this wing is made to withstand rough or snowy terrain. The fabric, up to three times more durable than standard 27g cloth, ensures excellent longevity. Its internal structure with arc reinforcements provides increased stability during inflation and accelerated flight, without compromising glide.
Dynamic sensations for skilled pilots
Easy to handle on steep or technical launches, it remains docile on the ground despite its compact size. Once airborne, it reveals a playful and responsive character: direct handling, quick turns, and excellent climb performance even in strong wind. Its energetic behavior allows for advanced maneuvers such as barrel rolls, provided the wing loading is sufficient.
Engineered for committed mountain flying
This wing is designed for seasoned pilots practicing hike & fly, alpine trail, or bivouac flying. Once packed, it fits easily in minimalist gear setups. Soaring enthusiasts will appreciate its precise handling in slope winds. On landing, its flair behavior ensures smooth finishes even in calm air.
Equipment and customization
It comes with ultra-light Dyneema risers to keep the total weight down. Optional classic risers can be chosen for easier handling. The unsheathed aramid lines help reduce volume while remaining clear and manageable during preflight checks.
The Kailash is delivered with a compact inner bag, compression strap, riser pouch, repair kit, UP stickers, and some UP goodies. A backpack is available as an option.
