Flown by Happy Soaring
Paulo Pereira, of Happy Soaring, flies the AlbatroXX in sizes 13 and 16. Flying Parakite for 4 years, full-time on this project.
More speed, efficiency and handling, through a higher aspect ratio and 65 cells. Unmatched energy conversion for crisper turns, smoother control inputs and a more responsive feel.
Who it is for
Experienced coastal and speed-flying pilots; intermediate to advanced.
Strong points
- Efficient wing, with good lift and glide
- Higher aspect ratio: speed and dynamic dive
- Exceptional collapse resistance, with a reflex profile
- Lets you fly smaller sizes without losing performance
- Confidence-inspiring stability, with a good flare

Description by Flow Paragliders
The Albatroxx is our latest and most advanced parakite, built based on the Mullet and MulletX. This glider takes parakite performance to a whole new level, delivering unmatched speed, efficiency and handling.
With a higher aspect ratio and an increased cell count of 65, the Albatroxx offers superior aerodynamics. This translates to greater top speed, a more dynamic dive and a more efficient glider.
The Albatroxx has superior energy conversion. Its higher aspect ratio allows for crisper turns, smoother control inputs and a more responsive feel, setting it apart from anything else in our lineup.
As the most efficient parakite in our range, the Albatroxx provides incredible lift and glide capabilities. This means pilots can fly a smaller size compared to the Mullet or MulletX while maintaining exceptional performance.
Whether you're a coastal flyer looking for precision and control or a speed flyer exploring dynamic dive capabilities, the Albatroxx delivers it all. Its high-performance design ensures confidence-inspiring stability and an impressive flare.
Solidity and reflex profile
The Albatroxx airfoil is designed to provide a safe and enjoyable experience, especially when it comes to resistance against collapses.
With just a pull on the A-lines, this wing demonstrates exceptional resistance to collapsing - practically making it theoretically non-collapsible. This advanced safety feature ensures pilots can perform diving manoeuvres confidently, even in extreme conditions, without the fear of the glider collapsing.
It offers the perfect combination of stability and excitement, delivering unmatched reassurance in the sky when it matters most.
Range of use
Wind range is indicative only - based on an intermediate/advanced pilot of 75–95 kg.
