X.R.C.
Cross rods construction for right tension and accurate pressure in the leading edge.
AFP
Leading edge pocket reinforcements on the lower intake prevent cell vibrations at higher speeds.
Triple 3D cut
3D shaping of the leading edge for a clean foil - two technical cuts on the top surface, one technical cut on the lower surface.
Mini Ribs
Mini Ribs make the trailing edge coherent, smooth and sharp and improve performance by streamlining the airflow on the wing.
B.C.S
B to C steering system helps to iron out canopy movements in turbulent air at a full speed bar with minimal effect on performance.
Based on the same DNA as APOLLO 3, its lightweight construction facilitates access to the hike and fly and volbiv world.
Carrying less, efficiency in weak conditions, and better performance make APOLLO 3 LIGHT a highly suitable choice for enthusiasts of volbiv.
Its intuitive design offers excellent performance and provides perfect feedback in any mass air conditions. Pilots quickly become familiar with the canopy, which fosters confidence and extends the duration of air time. The potential of thermalling is already exceptional in the conventional version. Lightweight version, will definitely excel in broken thermals or small, narrow cores. While big cores will be just a pure joyride.
The lightweight nature of the clothing also facilitates take-off, making it a breeze. Small take-offs are no longer an obstacle to your flying plans.
The APOLLO 3 3 LIGHT offers excellent speed control on full bars, complemented by BC steering. Which makes transitions straightforward and allows you to focus on XC track performance.
APOLLO 3 LIGHT's compact design is a clear advantage. The Sky Compact Bag has been added to the scope of delivery to provide additional space in your backpack and to support the lightweight concept.
The APOLLO 3 LIGHT is an intermediate-to-high B-category glider that seamlessly integrates performance with safety. Optimal partner for the lightweight adventures.

Standa Klikar designer:
The use of lighter materials in the construction of Apollo 3 has brought a number of benefits. When we talk about the feeling of flight, first of all, a slightly more precise connection to the surrounding air mass and a wider range of feedback from it, the wing gains agility and dexterity compared to the standard version.
Naturally, the lightness has a very positive effect on the take-off progress and last but not least - a slightly smaller volume of the packed wing and a lighter backpack are always useful.
All this without significantly compromising wing life and long-term trouble-free functionality.
