THE MATERIALS
The OMEGA 5, 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 selec-
ted 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.
