Materials used
The BIBETA 4, like all ADVANCE products, is produced as the result
of the latest developments and experience in the sport. All the mate-
rials used in the construction of our paragliders have been carefully
selected in order to ensure that our products have a long service life.
Materials are systematically evaluated, and all canopies undergo our
rigorous quality control testing.
