Bandit² – Ultralight Paraglider EN B

🚀 Take off on an adventure

The Bandit² is designed for pilots seeking cross-country adventures, total freedom, and mountain-to-mountain exploration, with only their wing and bivouac gear as equipment. It combines an ultralight concept with the performance of a long-aspect-ratio wing, offering an ideal balance between versatility, safety, and thrills.

Details

🪂 A category all its own

The Bandit² occupies a unique place in the EN B category. It is sufficiently smooth and stable to inspire confidence in pilots venturing into thermals and cross-country flying, while retaining an instinctive feel and precise pitch dynamics that experienced pilots appreciate.

This balance between stabilityand thermal sensitivity and precision in the controls make the Bandit² a truly versatile wing, capable of adapting naturally to your progress, your flying style, and your ambitions.

🌄 Ready to take off, anywhere, anytime

Thanks to its lightweight construction and streamlined internal architecture, the Bandit² offers takeoff behavior worthy of a mountain wing. The wing inflates gently and gradually, even in no wind, with minimal effort and exceptional lift.

Stable in pitch and sensitive to the slightest thermal updrafts, it inflates quickly and compactly, ensuring reliable takeoff in all conditions : mountains, local sites, or cross-country takeoffs.

🎒 Lightweight and compact

Designed to be ultra-lightweight from the outset, every part—from the internal architecture to the geometry of the lines and cells—has been optimized to reduce weight without sacrificing performance, handling, or durability.

The Bandit² stands out thanks to:

• Remarkable finesse

• Smooth steering

• Perfect balance in flight

Its lightweight structure improves pitch and roll damping, providing intuitive and consistent feedbackunder all conditions.

Thanks to Nitinol Rigifoils located in the leading edge, the Bandit² folds in an ultra-compact and maintains a perfectly smooth upper surface. The ultimate advantage for all Hike&Fly and cross adventures where every gram counts.

Streamlined elevators

Designed for simplicity andefficiency, Bandit² lifts have been redesigned to be lighter, more intuitive, and easier to handle.

The result:

• A more direct steering

• A smoother flying experience

• A simplified handling on the ground, ideal for technical takeoffs and training on training slopes.
