Little Cloud USA

We have new owners!!

Allow us to introduce ourselves to those that don't already know us: we are Bonita Hobson and Jarred Bonaparte, aka Bon Bon and Jar Jar, or, Bonnie & Clyde. :)-

We have been flying since 2009 and 2013, respectfully, and are very excited about this opportunity to help with Little Cloud USA's success!!  We live near "The Dumps", or Mussel Rock in Pacifica and fly nearly every day (or every flyable day).  We want to share the love of Little Cloud and offer demos to qualified pilots (weather dependent) here in California.  Let us know if you are interested in a glider and we can arrange it.  

Little Cloud is excited about their new wing, the Urubu King!  It offers real differences/developments compared to its little sister, the Urubu!  Tom and his team flew and tested it for hundreds of hours across Brazil and in the Alps to perfect it. Although sharing the same base/platform, it offers a better glide as well as better performance in thermals and on the bar in particular.

The Urubu is geared toward advanced pilots due to its' higher aspect ratio and performance.  It is a great wing for XC, soaring, and hike & fly because it's weight is only 3.8kg. 

The Puffin is our turbo soaring wing for advanced pilots and has been a great success!  It is safe, stable, and a really fun glider to fly!!

We have made the EZ better in the design of The Spiruline! Perfect for hike & fly and turbo soaring for advanced pilots.  

If you're interested in hike & fly we are excited that the Kagoo2 is back!  It is the lightweight version of The Spiruline and is available in sizes from 14 to 23m2. 

Lastly, we are really excited about the addition of kite risers that can be added to any Little Cloud glider larger than 14m.  These kite risers are a different way to change the angle of attack of your wing, just like you do with trimmers or a speedbar, but the difference is that you adjust it instantly with your arms and without being able to pull the brakes – only when the angle of attack is low. "Speed at your fingertips!"

With that in mind, Little Cloud has made a kite riser specific wing, La Mouette (The Seagull)!  We will have demos in 14, 19, and 22 in California mid June.  

Let us know if you have any questions, we'll be happy to answer them and want to help you find the right wing and harness!

Thanks, and Happy Flying!
