FLARE Bandit 19 vs FLARE Moustache 18 | Wing Comparison
Same day. Same site. Same conditions. Two very different wings.
Here’s how the FLARE Bandit 19 and Moustache 18 compare when flown back to back.
I had a session last week flying both the Bandit 19 and the Moustache 18. I wanted to compare how they behave toward the upper end of their wind range. Flying them back-to-back on a small, flat site with plenty of features really highlighted their individual strengths.
I’m starting to get to know the Bandit and I’m really enjoying what it has to offer. That said, I still love flying the Moustache. I’m coming to realise that each wing has its own time and place, I don’t think one wing satisfies me in every situation. They all have their strengths and tend to shine under different conditions.
My aim with this video was to create a comparison with a bit of commentary from my side, but more importantly to tell a visual story of what each wing is doing, so you can make up your own mind. We’re all different, and we all enjoy different styles of flying.
I also have another comparison video coming up where I flew the Bandit 19 alongside the Moustache 18 and 22 on the dunes. That one’s on the way, but this session had better flying, so it jumped the queue.

I’ve been flying since 1998 and work as a flight instructor, and the Flare products have helped reconnect me with the passion for our beautiful sport.
As a performer, one often has to act — but with you, you can truly see and feel the genuine passion. That’s exactly what makes your videos so honest and authentic.
I really hope you continue creating many more clips like these.
Thank you very much for the inspiration. Cheers!
Such great info!
It's been quite some time since i learn to fly and started doing maneuvers, looking at your videos, i feel like noobie, lot to learn😅
Amazing control. 👏🏻
