The all-new Vibe GT brings that legacy into the modern era with exciting new tech. It is positioned precisely in the middle of the EN B category between the Buzz and the Rush.

A low drag line plan, double 3D shaping, an advanced internal structure, and an exceptionally clean leading edge all combine for high aerodynamic efficiency.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMini-ribs refine the trailing edge for reduced drag and sharper brake response. A higher arc, combined with winglets, increases sail tension and turn authority while improving side-collapse behaviour and ensuring predictable spiral characteristics — a critical quality in the mid-B class.

Turn initiation is clean and progressive, with excellent roll authority and balanced yaw response.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt cores efficiently, holds bank angles naturally, and transitions smoothly between thermals and glides. Reduced sail inertia — thanks to the GT semi-light construction — increases responsiveness and amplifies the sense of connection to the air.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGlide efficiency is strong throughout the speed range, and the rear-steering system enhances control and efficiency when accelerated. Drag reduction through refined line architecture, winglet integration, and clean trailing edge construction translates directly into measurable gains in glide and usable speed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDespite its performance focus, the Vibe GT maintains reassuring pitch stability and predictable collapse behaviour. The moderate aspect ratio and cohesive internal structure preserve accessibility while allowing pilots to push further with confidence.
