Some of the abovementioned wings have been equipped with line maillons from the manufacturer King Snap. This can lead to a safety problem (described in the full safety notice, to be found below) and UP International has decided to issue a safety notice in this regard, and to exchange all King Snap maillons with ones manufactured by our usual provider, Maillon Rapide of France.
Full extent of the Safety Notice
Alex Hofer is back on form, coming 2. in the recent Swiss Open in Flims on his Trango X-light!
The Nordic Open commences in a few short days in the quaint little village of Preddvor, Slovenia - UP is there!
It began with the Kantega XC, and now the Ascent 2 is also available as a Virtual Brochure here on the UP web page
Kurt Eder from Italy is UP's inhouse harness designer, the man behind the new UP harness lineup. He's also an extremely accomplished XC pilot.
I'm only just back from a very worthwhile trip to Iran. I went there to meet the local UP representative, and ended up coming home with a whole bag of new friendships!
