SHERPA Backpack
JANUARY 2021
:: Redesigned, lighter and smarter ::
The paragliding bag is the house protecting your gear – too light and fragile, it will not last. Too heavy and rigid will not be comfortable on long hikes.The all new APCO PG bag was completely redesigned, using the latest materials to make it lighter, stronger, better looking and with space to carry even more.
The new bag was reshaped to better accommodate pod style harnesses. featuring a longer and slimmer shape, bringing the C.G of the bag closer to the body and spreading the weight better. The result is a much improved bag on all parameters.
Carrying and packing comfort was the No 1 objective of this new bag and it is very comfortable even fully loaded on the longest hikes.Packing the gear is quick and easy with a full front opening allowing spreading the bag open on the ground and laying the gear inside, similar to the technique used with a clinch bag.
For tandem pilots or extra gear needed, there is an expander zipper expanding the volume to a whopping 200+ liters – enough to fit a classic full tandem kit!!
