In the air
Flying the Odin
Sharp handling
Lower induced drag allows for quicker response in all flight modes.
Turn response
Precise roll response across the entire speed range makes terrain flying or ridge soaring in traffic more predictable and controlled.
Easy inflation
Launches like a paraglider or speed wing, even in no wind — ideal for technical mountain environments.
Familiar feel
Intuitive handling for pilots coming from paragliding or speed flying, with only the risers and pitch range to adjust to.
Landing
Light to moderate control pressure with clear stall feedback, enabling slower, more controlled landings and confident top landings.

Behind the name
Odin translates to Óðinn. The name stems from the root word óðr, meaning frenzy, fury, rage, or poetic inspiration. Allföðr (Allfather) — the creator and ruler of gods and men.
Risk Warning
Skydiving, parachuting, speed flying and paragliding are dangerous activities that can result in serious injury or death. Fluid Wings equipment must only be flown by appropriately trained, current and rated pilots, and must be inspected, maintained and packed in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions.
Wing performance varies with wing loading and size — the information on this page is a general guide only. Obtain advice from a qualified professional to confirm a wing is suitable for your intended use and skill level. Fluid Wings LLC does not provide that advice, and this page must not be used to determine acceptable maximum loading (suspended weight) for a wing.
