Ziad Bassil's Gear Reviews

With its tight turn radius and direct brakes, the Mint suits C pilots who already know how to keep a wing from diving in a turn. The brake pressure runs a little firm too, which fits pilots who want a solid feel on the brakes. Load it at the top of the range. On the 75-95 at 95kg all-up, it slips through a valley breeze well when you are low; at 90kg it won't do that as efficiently. Even loaded that heavily, it still climbs well in weak thermals.
