PROTON GT DHV 2-3
The Proton GT is our new high performance wing to replace the very successful Proton. The main aim of the proton GT is to create a wing that performs well with better handling and a more solid feel much like the Octane. We achieved the performance increase with a new partially closed leading edge, 10 cells fully closed and 20 partially closed. This has given us a better sink rate and a small improvement in glide through out the speed range. The shape has undergone a big change; it now has a similar shape to the Octane but with higher aspect ratio. The handling is wonderful, light responsive and above all very co-ordinated. The final result is a wing that is safe and solid but with lots of character.
