SUPAIR “RESET” PHOTO COMPETITION 📸✨

From July 16 to August 12, Supair is running a super simple photo contest open to all pilots. The idea: forget the vario for a moment and capture what makes flying magic — landscapes, emotions, shared moments.

💥 12 finalist photos will be printed in large format and displayed at the Supair booth during Coupe Icare.
🎉 Festival visitors will vote for their favorite, and you could win a Radical 4 harness, a Supair Pilot helmet, or a Trek 30L bag.

Just send us your best shots: views from the sky, life at takeoff, moments with friends… everything that shows why we fly.

And the best part? All photos will be shown — because every image deserves its moment.

At Coupe Icare, people will vote by dropping a ballot in the box at the booth. Simple, fun, and your photo might be the one everyone talks about.

Let’s RESET together — time to share what flying feels like. 🚀📷

RESET photo exhibition at the Coupe Icare on the Supair booth. Enter for a chance to win a Radical 4, a Helmet a bag.
