A paraglider designed for the extreme, ready for your challenges
Developed to meet the relentless demands of the Red Bull X-Alps, the X-ALPS 6 by Skywalk is more than just a glider: it’s a high-performance precision tool built for pilots striving for excellence. Every detail is engineered for extreme conditions: it offers total control in turbulent air, reliable take-offs even on difficult terrain, and outstanding glide over long distances.
The X-ALPS 6 has been proven on the world’s toughest terrain: the Red Bull X-Alps. It is now ready to accompany you on your own expeditions. Precise launches, smooth handling in complex conditions, and long-lasting performance on extended flights—this wing is built to push your limits.
Ultra-lightweight, compact, and highly efficient
Thanks to its ultra-light construction and reduced packing volume, the X-ALPS 6 is the top choice for Hike & Fly adventures where every gram matters. It embodies pure performance, the drive to go further, and is made for ambitious pilots—whether competitors or airborne explorers.
Easy launch, razor-sharp precision
Where other wings require effort, the X-ALPS 6 launches effortlessly. Its lightweight canopy rises cleanly above the pilot with minimal input. In thermal flight, it delivers precise, playful, and intuitive handling, reminiscent of the responsiveness of an EN-B wing like the SAGE. Thermalling is smooth, centering is efficient, and control is instinctive.
Full speed, full performance
When the pilot pushes the speed bar, the X-ALPS 6 reveals its full potential: excellent stability, efficient glide, and active piloting even in turbulence. The B-riser steering system enables fatigue-free flying, ideal for long transitions. Thanks to its optimized aerodynamic profile, advanced construction techniques, and improved tension distribution, this wing achieves a higher top speed and outstanding overall performance.
