All the high performance DNA of the 86 cell Leopard has been retained. Most notably, the glide performance in headwind does not suffer due to the lighter construction. ![Gin Puma paraglider – in flight](https://paraglidingequipment.com/wp-content/uploads/ 2026/11/gin-puma-lightweight-d-4-768x512.webp "Gin Puma – Lightweight EN-D Two-Liner 1") ![Gin Puma paraglider – in flight](https://paraglidingequipment.com/wp-content/uploads/ 2026/11/gin-puma-lightweight-d-5-768x512.webp "Gin Puma – Lightweight EN-D Two-Liner 2") ### Speed in reserve The Puma excels not only in glide performance but also in ultimate maximum speed. Due to the high wing tip stability in accelerated flight, the wing is able to reach a very high maximum speed. Even at such high speeds, the glide remains flat and stable. ### Light enough for the toughest hike ’n fly races The design goal of the Puma was to reduce the weight of the Leopard whilst sacrificing nothing whatsoever in performance. Thanks to the careful optimisation of internal structure and materials, the Puma is over 1kg lighter than the Leopard. This puts the wing firmly in the category of wings for hike ’n fly races such as the X-Alps and X-Pyr, yet the performance is still good enough for serious XC racing. The experience of our race athletes has been incorporated into the development of the wing. ### Climbing and handling The handling is light and direct, giving the pilot a coherent picture of the airmass. The high agility means that the wing responds very well to small pieces of lift. The stall point is readily identifiable, and apart from the obvious safety benefit it’s also useful for tricky landings in challenging terrain. ### Take-off The Puma will get airborne effortlessly in zero wind conditions and even slight tailwinds are possible with appropriate pilot technique. In stronger winds, pilots only need to pull gently on the centre A1 lines to initiate the inflation, the wing will rise evenly overhead almost on its own. ## Design details * 2rd Generation EPT * Unsheathed aramid lines * High number of cells * 3 and 4 cell blocks * Trailing edge mini ribs * Rubber band * Optimized B control bar * Coded color riser * A3 stopper * Magnetic fastener * Low friction ring ## Frequently asked questions ### Which size do I need?
