Very helpful people.

The previous covers from jaxida did not last as long as our current
ones. The DG500M is the whole season on the airfield.

Its all about Vertigo covers for me.

The UV protection is alleged to be better than all their rivals and they
won't turn into a brown crisp after 1 year!

You get for what you pay!

My covers are 6 years old and still look as good as new - used regularly
throughout the season.

I would highly recommend.

Paul, what is the warranty on Jaxida covers. I had a set many moons ago
and
they did not last well, and they were only used a three or four weeks per

year. I too am looking for good covers that will be used maybe three
weeks

every year, one week at a time.

We have a set of these covers for our Arcus M; spent the whole of last
season in the open - April thru' November, Swiss weather - and still look
good.

Each wing cover is in 4 panels.

Big selling point is the thick honeycomb layer in the top surface to
protect against hail.

Downside is that their English language skills are pretty poor, so write,
don't call...

I would also recommend Vertigo Covers.

Their product seems to be the ONLY one that is breathable. Having
breathable covers is important to prevent the ingress of condensation.
Other covers trap it in with coated fabrics and try to add ventilation with
netting on the bottom. Where as the Vertigo ones have a breathable outer
fabric which works with the inner liner to wick dry the wings.

Its the only product I would buy and my full set of Vertigo Covers on my
Std Cirrus are fantastic.

I think they do the hail protection as well if you wanted it.

The Vertigo optional hail protection layer feels very shock absorbing
but makes the covers very heavy and bulky. I think it is worth it for a
glider parked outdoors in South Africa or somewhere else prone to
large hailstones but if not and if I ever need another set of covers it
would be Vertigos without the hail protection layer - unless they
come up with a lighter weight version'

I could not recommend Jaxida. Mine lasted around 2 and a half years (rigged

outside approx 6 months per year) before they literally disintegrated. This
in
Scotland, hardly renowned for suffering from UV! Jaxida shrugged off my
complaint.

I bought Vertigo. Less expensive and seemingly bulletproof over 6 years
later. (Well, not literally ;o)
