Ziad Bassil's Gear Reviews
Pilots moving from mid-B to high-B usually worry about the extra wing movement that comes with the extra performance. The Rise 5 moves little even in rough conditions, so at this stage it lets you step up in thermal performance while staying relaxed. It trims fast without being loaded to the max, so fly it a few kilos under the top of the range on normal days and add a little for strong ones.
