Avax SR 7 - an Open Class paraglider

AVAX SR 7 is a successor of AVAX RSF - The choice of some top Australian pilots like James Lawson and Brian Webb. The pre-production model of this glider made an excellent debut already with Luca Donini winning the 2006 European Championship and Radek Vecera taking the first place in 2006 Italian Open. AVAX SR 7 has been designed with a highly experienced and ambitious competition pilot in mind. The more than 1/10 glide and top speed over 60 km/h opens the way to the highest achievements. The handling and turning ability has been improved as well.

Avax SR&AVAX SR 7 is being made in 4 sizes covering weight range from 80 to 125 kg. The gliders will be supplied with the new Gradient rucksack. The price will, depending on size, be just under $5,000.
