I have owned both AS and SH. Both manufacturers have been producing commercially viable gliders since the dawn of commercial glider design and serial manufacturing. The companies have different design approaches. I respectfully submit that "two guys that bought Ventii" is not a statistically valid sample for much but further inquiry. Your statement conveyed no information other than research might not be your strong suit.

Having owned and flown both Ventus 2C and ASG-29 both are well worth considering.

Best regards,

Ventus - plural: Venti (and not Ventii):
