Training flight from 2010-08-16 on the Atlas hang glider - I briefly switched to it during my training from the usual Moyes/Icaro Mars. My impression was that the landing was a bit easier on the Atlas, also the glider seemed lighter than the Mars (24 kg) - but that's apparently not true according to the spec. All in all I enjoyed the Atlas during few flights I had on it.
@rheon78 Thanks for the comment! After I flew on the Atlas during my training I liked it so much that I've recently bought one for myself - about 200 EUR, good condition and I don't have to worry about hang glider shortage on the training hill anymore because I have my own training Atlas :-) Thanks for the tips about next gliders, I will take a look at them for sure.

I flew Atlas 30 years ago, it was the best single surf glider. Currently I fly Relax, Malibu or Falcon, they're representing new age of single surf technology, much lighter and easier handling, specially on landing and has more performance too. Try one of them after your school..
