Description

Expanding Horizons

The TENOR is a Mid B wing which sets new standards in dynamic performance, passive safety and aerodynamic construction.The additional mini ribs in the leading edge double the cell number in the critical area of the aerofoil. Together with the optimised double zigzag 3D shaping the surface finish reaches a new level of perfection.Although the TENOR is a very robust wing (Dominico 30D/20D cloth and internal stitching of trailing edge mini ribs), the innovative internal construction reduces the weight effectively.This wing is very stable at speed and has plenty of safety when it’s getting rough: the TENOR is built to expand your horizons.

Tenor Designers Notes

The TENOR is based on the SYMPHONIA, combining a very safe concept with some additional features to improve performance and speed. The additional ribs in the leading edge are the step forward in form stability. The new airfoil is offering a good climbing performance, even the wing being smaller. The reduced size and higher wing loading is moving the polar towards speed performance. So the TENOR is designed to reach the horizon.

Tenor Secrets

We played a lot with the rigging system to improve the angle of attack being optimal reduced over the wingspan by stepping into the speed system. Another main point was the high form stability in turbulence or when the brakes are pulled a little.

Scope of delivery

Glider, compression belt, innerbag, backpack.
The PHI rucksack is designed to be reduced and light, but still robust and convenient to carry.
It can be packed very small, to minimize storage space in the harness.
