With their high aspect ratio and thin sections, the Glide Series Stabs allow you to cover insane distances with minimal work (downwind, pump or prone). Stabilizers need to be stiff to provide precise and predictable turning and pumping, so we’ve engineered the Glide Series with HM carbon. This allows us to achieve the high stiffness we require despite the thin, high-aspect shape. The S142 has higher performance and is crazy fast and whippy. Your average rider may find it a little more advanced for pumping, but if you put in the energy, it will maintain glide. The S142 has enough holding power to take you right up to the DW1400, but we recommend the S192 for larger sizes.
