Poll: Which grip system makes sense for wings?Photo: Markus Greber
When it comes to the grip system on wings, opinions differ. Boom systems, narrow handles, wide handles - there are good reasons for each system. What's your opinion? Tell us in our short survey.

When it comes to wing handle systems, manufacturers offer different systems. Just two years ago, most manufacturers relied on several narrow handles. Brands such as Vayu or Duotone came onto the market with boom systems, which weighed a little heavier but allowed variable grip positions and very direct contact with the wing. Nowadays, there is also everything in between - wide handles, mini booms and much more.

You can find an overview of the grip systems currently in use at Wings HERE .
