What’s new on the Mantis 2026 vs the Mantis 2025
- Upgraded Airframe inflation system for simpler, more consistent inflation/deflation workflow.
- Refined construction process aimed at improved consistency, durability, and “dependable feel” session to session.
- Handlebar boom is now standard on every Mantis (and the bag is designed so you don’t need to remove it to pack).
- The 2025 Mantis introduced the major redesign (draft-forward outline, refined twist, TE load distribution, carbon batten, Teijin D2 canopy). 2026 carries that platform forward and focuses on the “system + build” improvements above.
