Why You Should Choose Rook 4

16. September, 2025

When Triple Seven released the Rook 4, it was clear they were aiming to set a new benchmark in the high-B class. Reviews from around the world confirm it: the Rook 4 combines accessibility, performance, and refined handling in a way that makes it stand out. Here’s why pilots everywhere are calling it one of the best wings in its category.

Effortless Launches

Reviewers consistently highlight how easy the Rook 4 is to bring overhead. Dust of the Universe noted:

“The Rook 4 launches quickly and evenly, without hard points. Even in light winds it comes up smoothly.”

This confidence at takeoff means less stress on tricky launches and more focus on flying.

Handling That Inspires

Paragliding is about feel—and the Rook 4 nails it. Flybubble wrote:

“The Rook 4 feels more cohesive and balanced in turns. The brakes are precise, progressive, and reassuring.”

Meanwhile, Dust of the Universe pointed out that the glider manages the sweet spot between agility and stability:

“It’s slightly more alive in roll than the Rook 3, but still comfortable and never nervous.”

This balance makes it engaging for experienced pilots, yet not overwhelming for those stepping up.

Performance You Can Trust

When it comes to glide and climb, the Rook 4 punches above its weight. Lu-Glidz summarized it as:

“In terms of performance, the Rook 4 plays right at the top of the B class.”

Parapente Mag went further, praising its ability in thermals:

“The Rook 4 is very effective in weak lifts, and in stronger cores it bites in and climbs like a higher-category wing.”

Cross-country pilots will especially appreciate the wing’s efficient glide at trim and on bar, keeping them higher and pushing further on long transitions.

Speed & Control on Bar

Flying accelerated is where many wings reveal their weaknesses. The Rook 4, however, shines. Dust of the Universe observed:

“On full bar, the Rook 4 is remarkably solid with a clear margin, and the C steering—though firm—is precise enough to keep the wing on track.”

This makes it a trustworthy companion when covering ground quickly.

A True “High-B” Experience

The Rook line has always defined the essence of a high-B wing: accessible, yet offering a taste of higher-class performance. The Rook 4 is no exception. Flybubble summed it up perfectly:

“It’s a wing that feels safe and reassuring, yet offers the kind of performance that will keep ambitious pilots smiling for a long time.”

Conclusion

The Rook 4 is not just an update—it’s a significant leap forward. With effortless launches, precise and fun handling, excellent glide and climb, and a dependable feel on bar, it’s clear why reviewers are united in their praise.

If you’re looking for a high-B paraglider that gives you confidence, fun, and cross-country efficiency, the Rook 4 is simply one of the best choices you can make today.
