    I’ve trained and flew for 7 years on the Rival S. With proper training, it is in my opinion, the best all around wing. I am currently flying the Rival X and while it is a good flying wing it is nowhere as responsive as the S. Wish I still had my S that went with my old Revo. I’ve flown a few air creation wings too and they do make a great king posted wing – I don’t remember the name but it was a 13 meter wing – older but so easy to fly. Somewhere between the Rival S and Rival X. If you go with the Rival S – get transition training – it’s a must as it requires a different flying style or you’ll get yourself in trouble fast.

    Agree 100%. We were all strapped in and ready to fly. That last part about the bar in hands is critical. I’ve read about at least one fatality that was caused by that bar being strapped to the compression strut and that person having a similar issue with a full throttle start up.
