Ziad Bassil's Gear Reviews
The reason to choose the King is its glide at 45–47km/h, speeds many XC pilots fly often. In exchange, its top speed is lower than the wings it was compared with, and in rough air it asks for more active piloting than a Mantra 6. A Queen pilot should move up only after two seasons of flying the Queen comfortably in strong conditions. If you have put many hours on an S, check whether its trim speed has changed, and talk to a dealer before releasing any loops.
