PYRO is VAYU's answer to the Parawing: ultralight, sleek, and built to be packed up and deployed time and time again.
Short lines, high-quality construction, and our new Bridge Bar combine to create a parawing that feels instantly familiar if you’re coming from wingfoiling with a VAYU: direct, smooth, and predictable. With the PYRO, you can confidently ride upwind, stow it away in seconds, and surf downwind without holding anything in your hands.
Developed and tested in the Columbia River Gorge, Fuerteventura, and Hawaii.
The PYRO is designed for riders who want less gear getting in the way and a deeper connection to the ocean.

Bridles & Reins
The PYRO's bridle system is designed with one goal in mind: maximum control with minimal clutter.
Short center lines (approx. 1.3–1.5 m)
Tuned for each size to ensure quick "killing," clean recovery, and less tangling. Shorter system = easier to stow & easier to relaunch.
Clean A/B/C/D layout with Brake (Br) risers
Five rib attachment points distribute the load evenly across the canopy without overcomplicating the line layout.
Separate Center-A and Outer-A
Center-A risers are grouped together for efficient “killing” and pull-in, while the Outer-A risers are positioned separately so that the tip segments can flag and relieve tension—making it easier to pull the wing in under tension.
Smooth, color-coded ropes
DSL70 and PPSLS lines with clear color coding make sorting and identification intuitive when unpacking or stowing.
Straight, knot-free runs
From Center-A to the tip, the lines are kept as straight and taut as possible to reduce friction points when you move your hand toward the Wing push up.
The result: a bridle that feels simple but is tuned for real-world use—less thinking, less tangling, more riding.
Bridge Bar & Control System
The PYRO Bridge Bar is your connection to the cap—direct, clean, stash-friendly, and super easy to maintain.
Bridge Line Architecture
Each group of ribs has its own leader on the “bridge”; the lines tighten smoothly and sequentially as you sheet in. No pulleys, sliders, or uneven loads.
Full usable handle length
With the center hardware in the hand area, you can move your hands anywhere along the bar without hitting a stopper.
Curved, shaped bar ends
They reduce line tangling and give your fingers a comfortable, secure grip—especially when riding or flagging with one hand.
Short, custom-length bars
The bar length is tailored to the cap size and kept compact for easy storage and packing on the Foil to make it easier, even for larger sizes.
Bar lengths: 2.5 = 275 mm, 3.2 = 315 mm, 4.0 = 350 mm, 5.0 = 390 mm
Smooth Angle-of-Attack Range
The bridge configuration gives you a long, usable sheeting range: you can add or reduce power without the canopy stalling immediately.
Easy maintenance
Easy maintenance thanks to a fully modular, easily replaceable bar and bridle system.
