Ziad Bassil's Gear Reviews
It launches easily, it moves little, and it does not surprise the pilot. That the air is quieter overhead than on a Buzz Z5 or an Ion 5 is, on its own, reason enough to buy for a pilot who has just left paragliding school. The price is plain. It is less agile than its predecessor, and its glide sits honestly on the low-B average. Come to it expecting bite and performance and you will be disappointed. The Tequila 5 does not test the pilot. It looks after the pilot while the skill accumulates — and when it has done its job, it quietly makes way for the next wing.
