Stemme & Wave Soaring: a Perfect Match

Several of our customers regularly take their Stemme S12 or S10 on breathtaking wave flights, whether in the Alps or as far as Australia.

 

Pilots like John Riedl and Michael Witschi in Switzerland are great examples, check out their adventures !

 

But what exactly is wave Soaring?


It’s a unique meteorological phenomenon where strong winds flowing over mountain ranges generate stationary atmospheric waves. Skilled glider pilots can ride these waves to climb well above 30,000 feet, engine off, powered only by the wind.

With its outstanding glide ratio, long-range cruise capabilities, and ability to climb in lift efficiently, the Stemme is perfectly built for this kind of demanding yet exhilarating flying.

Designed for adventure. Engineered for performance.
