He lists it as a ppc here http://theflyingchallenge.com/feather-powered-parachute/ The main differences are if the sail is inflated by ram air (ppc) or not (ppg) PPC are much slower than ppg You can also see the cells on the video I posted earlier.- I am really likeing these new battons. Wing is flying easier now. Shims having tighter sail at each wing tip also making better.

The first streak I saw fly was a rainbow pattern sail.it was beuitiful and ridgesoared very nicely. I knew I wanted one but never got the chance.I think they had pretty good handling unlike the duck or the comet that you had to lug into a turn.- I second what White Eagle mentioned about parts and service being closer to home. My Countour SL is a good wing, but I wish I could get the sail replaced when the time comes instead of buying a new wing.
