Just looking at purchasing a 15 and noticed on youtube there is a video of one with winglets landing.
Anyone know where these can be purchased and how much it improves the glider?

Hi Mike,

First of all welcome at the ASW15 portal!

For what I have heard; those winglets have a minimal increase of performance. At the most some more stability while thermalling. Also the workshop who used to make them stopped production.
