Great choice XCmag! super quality from Andre as usual, perfectly presented. Saves me having to schlep over on a plane ;-) thanks for the insights.

[@AndreBandarra1]

Cheers Greg! Means a lot :)

Hi Greg. I fly my XI now for a month and it is AWESOME! Hope flybubble test it and i am curious on your opinion compared to the IOTA2. Got both on hands on my Hill.

[@greghamerton4422]

yeah I've videod my review of the XI already, got some beautiful gliding footage .. just need to find time to edit. IOTA2 has slightly sharper responses.

i guess it's kinda off topic but do anyone know of a good place to stream newly released series online ?

[@bakerasher8516]

@Liam Charlie try flixzone. You can find it on google :)

[@fredpinczuk7352]

Nice product, quick question. Why not simply incorporate CE II (EN1621-2) motorcycle protection pads? They are certified and proven (and light weight and affordable).

Too bad Advance did not offer a rear fairing as it's an obvious much larger aerodynamic advantage AND a much needed option for storage.. I do love my lighntess 2

[@lexhagenbeek8346]

I just wonder if he's got the price right. He talks Euro or ?? Even in British Pounds it would be a fairly cheap wing.

[@AndreaSartoriEI]

I can't understand the retail price of the glide... swethousand? O.o
