From inflation to takeoff, the Gin Bolero 7 EASY EN A Paraglider delivers. The risers are color-coded, logically arranged, and feature large handles for improved ergonomics. That makes ground handling sessions more effective and rewarding, while also reducing setup errors.

Landing, often a stress point for newer pilots, becomes straightforward due to excellent flare authority and predictable sink rate control.

Built to Last and Inspire Confidence

The materials used in the Bolero 7 are handpicked for quality and longevity. GIN Gliders utilizes a hybrid fabric approach—strategically placing more robust cloth where it matters and lighter materials where performance gains are achievable. Stitching, tension distribution, and wear zones all meet professional-grade standards.

This approach ensures that your investment in the Bolero 7 will yield hundreds of flights with minimal wear or degradation. Instructors, too, benefit from reduced maintenance demands and longer wing life for school environments.

Perfect Match for Students and Beyond

While it’s crafted with beginners in mind, the Gin Bolero 7 EASY EN A Paraglider is no throwaway school wing. It supports light thermalling, ridge soaring, and gentle cross-country practice with elegance and ease. This wing allows you to build real, transferable skills without ever feeling overwhelmed.

For instructors, the benefits are doubled. Its consistent inflation, excellent roll stability, and forgiving collapse behavior mean students grasp fundamentals quicker and more safely.

A supremely balanced delight

Safety is paramount in a beginner wing, and the Bolero 7 is probably our most stable wing ever in terms of pitch and roll. Yet the wing is also great fun to fly, tight flat turns are possible and it’s easy and intuitive to vary the bank. There is zero tendency to enter a spiral dive in case the pilot inadvertently pulls too much brake.

As soon as the wing is overhead, the efficient profile is already producing lift. The wing is airborne at a low speed, and provides gentle forward momentum on light wind take-offs. In stronger winds, the wing remains equally well behaved with no hanging back.

The highly progressive brake travel means that the wing is easy to control in the turn and this encourages the pilot to learn to use subtle brake inputs. At the same time, the brake pressure increases quickly as more brake is pulled. The full brake range is very long, and thus the wing is extremely forgiving for students and beginner pilots.

Gin Bolero 7

will greatly help a pilot learning to thermal. The wing has a tendency to automatically fly towards lift. On entering the lift, there is a helpful biting which minimises the pitch corrections a pilot needs to make, enabling them to fully concentrate on maximising the lift (or enjoying the view!).

The Bolero 7 uses our custom Myungjin fabric on the upper surface, which was developed specifically for greater durability and porosity resistance. This fabric has been well proven with our Fuse 3 tandem wing, which has been flown thousands of hours worldwide. Other fabrics are used strategically throughout the wing.

DESIGNER NOTES Gin Bolero 7

Designer Gin Seok Song explains the development process of the Bolero 7:

The target with the Bolero 7 was to improve the handling, but during the development we were also able to improve the stability in both pitch and roll.

The new planform has more curve towards the wing tips and a straighter trailing edge — this gives an efficient turn. Even with tight turns the bank stays quite flat. We also worked on optimising the arc, which prevents a pilot accidentally entering a spiral dive whilst thermalling. The brake travel is highly progressive, only a small amount of brake is needed to turn the wing, but pressure increases quickly and it’s almost impossible to enter a stall unintentionally. Around the stall point, the wing recovers easily upon easing up on the brakes.

We also made some improvements to our EPT (Equalised pressure technology) system. On take-off, the wing immediately stabilises above the pilot and the lift-off comes very early at low speed. In addition, the wing self-corrects into small directional gusts on take-off and sniffs out thermals in the air.

Overall, the whole team was really happy with the Bolero 7 and we had a lot of fun test flying it. We didn’t feel so limited, even though it’s a wing for beginners!

🛡️ Safety Fly Guide for the Gin Bolero 7 EASY EN A Paraglider

✅ Before You Launch: Ground Prep Matters

Even though the Gin Bolero 7 is certified EN A and offers outstanding passive safety, thoughtful preparation remains essential for every flight.

Pre-Flight Safety Checklist:

✔ Wing Inspection: Check for any fabric tears, frayed lines, or damaged risers.
✔ Lines and Risers: Ensure they are untangled, correctly laid out, and color-coded (A-risers front, brake toggles secured).
✔ Harness Setup: Adjust for comfort and symmetry. Confirm leg and chest straps are secure.
✔ Helmet & Reserve: Always fly with a certified helmet and a properly packed reserve parachute.
✔ Wind Assessment: Know your conditions—launching in strong or gusty winds reduces margin for error.
✔ Radio (Optional): If you’re a student, a working radio is essential for instructor communication.

🛫 Takeoff: Smooth, Safe, and Predictable

The Bolero 7 features an effortless inflation behavior with balanced rise and pitch-neutral response. This makes takeoff simple—even in no-wind conditions.

Takeoff Tips:

🌬 Inflation: Light pressure on the A-risers is enough. The wing climbs evenly without overshooting.
👣 Run with Purpose: Commit to your launch run. Don’t stop prematurely.
🧭 Directional Control: Minor weight-shift or brake input helps correct small yaw deviations during inflation.
