    Hi All,

    I’m selling my Ultra Sport as I no longer use it. I bought it second hand so I’m not positive on the total hours – maybe 150 hours? I have it at my home in Redondo Beach.

    The Wills Wing Ultra Sport is a single-seat, high-wing, cable-braced hang glider that was designed and produced by Wills Wing in Santa Ana, California. The Ultra Sport is known for its forgiving handling, good low-speed performance, and gentle stall characteristics, making it a popular choice for intermediate pilots transitioning from beginner gliders.

    Designed for Intermediate Pilots:
    The Ultra Sport was designed as a step up from beginner gliders, offering a good balance of performance and ease of handling.

    Good Low-Speed Performance:
    The glider’s airfoil was optimized for low-speed flying and gentle stalls, making it ideal for thermalling and forgiving landings.

    Variable Geometry (VG):
    The Ultra Sport features a variable geometry system (VG) that allows pilots to adjust the sail tension for improved glide performance.

    Cable Braced:
    The single kingpost design and cable bracing are typical of hang glider construction.

    Popular Sizes:
    Ultra Sport 166: A large-sized model designed for heavier pilots with a hook-in weight range of 165 to 287 lbs.
