THE MATERIALS
The ALPHA 2, like all ADVANCE products, is produced as the result of the latest developments
and experience in the sport. All the materials used for the paraglider have been carefully
selected in order to allow our products an excellent longevity. The materials are systematically
tested and all canopies undergo quality control testing. The life of a wing may vary in big
proportion according to the care given to the utilisation and maintenance.
