Best-selling DHV 1 (1-2) from Swing

By Pete Morris

This Arcus has a track record that speaks for itself, this is Swings best selling glider and has been around since the early nineties in its various forms.

For a beginner’s DHV 1 (1-2 on the bar only), its handling is superb, it performs well and is reassuringly safe. On pulling large symmetrical and asymmetrical collapses it's unbelievably reassuring, tucks came out instantaneously.

It really doesnt feel like a DHV 1 with sporty looks and the feel to go with it. It's easy to thermal, has obvious performance advantages over many of the true DHV 1 wings on the hill and isn't too much of a handful on the ground. As always Swing have produced a superb acceleration range with linear bar response from trim to the impressive top speed.

If you are an ambitious CP qualifier and you're looking for a wing to take you from beginner to XC, this has got to be on your shortlist.
