The Bibeta 6 Paraglider by Advance is a groundbreaking addition to the world of tandem paragliding. Designed with precision and the professional tandem pilot's needs in mind, it offers a blend of efficiency, economy, and safety.
Advance Bibeta 6: Developed with Experts
For the first time, commercial tandem pilots were deeply involved in the Bibeta 6's development, contributing to its exceptional takeoff, in-flight handling, and landing characteristics.
Design and Performance
The Bibeta 6, available in two sizes (38 and 41), features an innovative design. Line sorting is simplified, and its canopy rises evenly without overshooting, ensuring a smooth takeoff. The wing responds directly to brake inputs, providing a satisfying flying experience. Reinforced design elements contribute to its longevity, while still maintaining a light weight of just 6.95 kg for the larger size.
Advanced Material Technology
The Bibeta 6 utilizes uncovered Magix Pro Aramid lines by Edelrid, offering 20% more strength and better resistance to kinks, bends, and wear compared to traditional lines. This technology ensures longer life and stability.
Safety Features
The paraglider includes trimmers for a speed increase of about 6 kph, offering a safety reserve against strong winds. Its big ears capability, combined with Vary-Grip, allows for a controlled descent when necessary.
Reinforced Line Loops
Each line in the Bibeta 6 has internal loop reinforcement to reduce pressure and prevent thin lines from cutting into thicker ones, enhancing durability.
UV Protection
The Edelrid Magix Pro lines are also treated with Thermo Shield and UV-Protec-Coating, providing resistance to UV radiation, dust, and water, further prolonging the life of the lines.
