Description

Volt 5 – #speedmachine

Agile, smooth on the brakes and fast, here comes the Volt 5!

Compared to its predecessor, the Volt 5 has gained performance at full speed and has significantly improved the floating in lifting air. Its ability to sniff out thermals will leave you astounded! Last but not least, it is now built in double-coated Dominico DOKDO-10DSF for top and bottom surfaces, a Superlight construction made to last!

While introducing the 2-liner design in the EN-C category, the Volt has proven its accessibility. This is something that doesn’t change with the Volt 5. Looking for a lightweight Sport performance glider, the happy pilots choosing the Volt 5 will benefit from the passive safety and the comfort guaranteed by the Volt series and at the same time the immeasurable pleasure of flying a 2-liner.
