Rebel

Crossing the countries...

Technology, like everything else, trickles downhill. However, at Gin Gliders, it flows uphill too. The new DHV 2 Rebel is a testament to this. This new performance glider incorporates the performance technology from the world famous Boomerang competition gliders to the proven safety features of the Bolero series and everything in-between. The result? A glider that truly makes flying cross country easier, safer and more stress free.

High Performance

With an aspect ratio of 5.55, a high number of cells (62) and reduced total line lengths gives the Rebel its high performance.
An optimized trimming of the sail and profiles helps to obtain a well coordinated, homogeneous and secure feeling for a glider of this performance level. The design objective for the Rebel was to create a performance XC glider with state of the art components (high arc, partial diagonals, efficient planform and the Kick Down speed system) with a high level of performance that is also easy to use.

High technology, high performance and a high degree of passive safety.What exactly does “High Performance” mean? A good climb rate; an excellent sink rate; a glider that penetrates easily into a headwind; easily cuts through turbulence; stability and efficiency at trim speed; and a speed system that is easy to push, efficient and safe to use. That’s performance!

Finally a Real XC Wing for Everyone!

• An XC glider that’s user friendly.
• Easy inflation in all conditions, easy ground handling and a quick take off.
• In flight the pilot and the Rebel quickly become one: from the first turns in thermals, the feel of the glider is intuitive; handling weightshift and the brakes to carve the perfect turn quickly becomes second nature.
• The Kick Down speed system
• 100% Skytex 9092 on the topsail for the best durability and Skytex 9017 on the rest of the glider to reduce weight.
• All 5 sizes are certified DHV 2. 5 sizes makes it easy to fit each pilot perfectly.
• 4 original color schemes
