For this wing "the pleasure of flight" was the leitmotiv for our R&D team in order to meet the desires of ambitious pilots. We work tirelessly to ensure that our products embody both pleasure and safety. We want to support pilots in their quest to keep improving - flying longer, higher, further... step by step! A crescendo perfectly symbolized by our new EN-B+ glider, the STEP. The STEP is a performant B+ sport glider designed for cross country flying. Intuitive and pleasant, the STEP is a comfortable glider, enjoyable with a great feeling in flight. With an excellent performance to safety ratio, it is the perfect blend to fly further while feeling great and safe. With its unique asymmetrical look, available in 3 colourful designs, this glider is also great to look at! Shark nose (improved low speeds), smart mini-ribs (cleaner top surface), 100% aramid lines, optimised internal structure from our R&D work on the WILD… the STEP is a modern high EN B glider with most of the favoured characteristics of it's higher-rated siblings (EN C and D): it has nothing to envy! Our insights "This STEP is designed for ambitious pilots who want to go further, get out of their comfort zone, and go XC flying. Apart from the performance aspect, which is what pilots are looking for in this particular category (high B), what we thought was important and that we did not neglect was the feeling. Once we achieved this, we focused on the feedback of the glider, but also the feeling of the air mass when the pilot is flying with this wing. That's what is going to help improve your piloting skills and make you want to go further, higher and reach milestones step by step." - Clément Latour, Supair sales manager, X-Alps athelete and PWC pilot "The idea behind this new EN-B+ was to exploit at most all the performance features that this category allows. We started working from the basis of the TASKA, for which we had very positive feedback and great certification results. From this we developed the STEP into a comfortable and easy-to-fly glider, whilst keeping the features that made the TASKA and WILD performant." - Pierre-Yves Alloix, glider developer "I believe the STEP is an important wing in our range that allows pilots to reach "performance flights" without feeling overwhelmed when they start flying EN-C or EN-D wings in thermal conditions. The right way is to get a good feeling for this, step by step, with an intuitive and accessible glider. - Louis Gérin-Jean, test pilot 3D view Materials Wing Upper surface: Sport Skytex Universal Porcher 38 g / m² Lower surface: Sport Skytex Universal Porcher 32 g / m² Line connected partition walls: Skytex 32 gr Hard finish Compression strips and partitions: Skytex 32 gr Hard finish Non-line connected partition walls: Skytex 32 gr Hard finish Partition reinforcements: Porcher Sport SR 170 Lines Upper lines: Edelrid Intermediate lines: Edelrid Lower lines: Edelrid The STEP is 100% made in Europe: designed in France, produced and assembled in our factory in the Czech Republic, with 100% european materials!

STEP reviews "The STEP fits nicely into Supair’s range between the LEAF and the TASKA, and definitely feels related to the latter. It is responsive yet comfortable and climbs really well." - Carlo, Flybubble (full review) "The STEP brings a higher level of passive safety while retaining almost all the performance. A great all-round XC wing that will take you on some adventures." - Marcus King, XC Mag (full review) "Supair has made their best glider till date for overall package it has to offer. Climb like a devil, glide like the top high B, handles super well… fast enough for a high B… " - Ziad Bassil, Dust of the Universe (full review) Watch our Supair STEP review video:
