About BIRDY2

More powerful than the first-generation BIRDY and the EONA4, the BIRDY2 offers greater passive safety than the LEAF3 (EN-B). It is the glider of choice for all pilots wishing to progress in the best possible conditions. With its intuitive, well-balanced handling, it gives you everything you need to perfect your steering.

Thanks to an optimized structure and greater aspect ratio, the BIRDY2 offers even greater performance than the first generation. At the same time, its EN-A certification guarantees the High level of passive safety. The partially unsheathed Line set not only helps to reduce drag, but also makes the glider lighter. Thanks to its versatiledesign , the BIRDY2 will accompany pilots over the long term, offering plenty of room for improvement before they feel the need to upgrade to an EN-B.

Safe behavior

Thanks to its high performance for the EN-A category and its maximum level of passive safety, the BIRDY2 combines the best of both worlds. Fun and responsive on inflation, theglider lets you quickly adopt the right steering gestures and reflexes throughout your progression.

Once in flight, the BIRDY2 is intuitive and reassuring. Its turns are precise and balanced, while its behavior remains tolerant of minor steering errors. The BIRDY2 is cut out to accompany you without difficulty on your first cross-country flights.

design semi-weighted

The BIRDY2 combines durability and lightness, using a blend of lightweight and robust materials. More powerful than the EONA4 and the first-generation BIRDY, the BIRDY2 is nonetheless a glider aimed at new pilots. It is therefore designed to withstand the many hours of inflation and ground exercises essential to your progress.

Developed in parallel with the WILD2, a high-performance glider designed for challenges such as the X-Alps, the BIRDY2 benefits from the latest R&D innovations, thanks in particular to work on the internal cut-outs and an optimized Line set , resulting in significant weight savings.

Although lightweight, the BIRDY2 doesn't compromise on comfort and ease ofUse. Its ergonomic risers make it easy to read during pre-flight checks. The connection between the risers and the lines is madeglider links, facilitating handling if necessary.

A tailor-made flight experience

To get the most out of your glider from paraglider, it's important to be correctly positioned within the Flying weight range range fromglider. This is why the BIRDY2 is available in 6 sizes instead of the usual 5, allowing you to optimize your positioning within the Flying weight range range. To get the most out of your BIRDY2, we recommend that you choose a Flying weight range where you are in the upper half of the range. Don't hesitate to contact your instructor for personalized advice on your choice of paraglider.

The BIRDY2 has passed double load testing, which means that the smaller sizes have been tested separately from the larger ones, to best adapt to the specifics of each. This makes it possible to use materials and lines adjusted to each size: thinner lines on the smaller gliders s help reduce drag, and therefore maximize performance.

The BIRDY2 has also been developed in size XXS to meet the needs of smaller riders who often have difficulty finding a glider to suit their weight. The 50-65 kg range makes it easier for featherweights to fit into the upper half of the Flying weight range range, and therefore to enjoy an optimal experience under their glider.

In short, the BIRDY2 is the idealglider to accompany pilots from the very beginning of their progression as independent pilots, while offering lasting flight pleasure. With its balance of safety, performance and versatility, it follows you well beyond your training, right up to your first cross-country flights. Its optimized design and high-performance innovations guarantee a tailor-made experience for every pilot and every size. With the BIRDY2, discover a new dimension of flight, with complete confidence.

New sizes for a tailor-made experience

With the BIRDY2, we introduce an XXS size, offering a Flying weight range from 50 to 65 kg. This new model allows pilots all sizes, including the lightest, to find a glider that suits them perfectly.

Why is this so important?

Positioning in the Flying weight range range directly influences the behavior of your glider. Here's what that means:

glider lightly loaded: generally slower at flight, this can make it easier to exploit thermals. On the other hand, theglider is more sensitive to turbulence, with more frequent "flashing" movements (although generally without consequence).
glider highly loaded: flight fast and more resistant to turbulence. Closures are less frequent but can be more dynamic. Since the speed is higher, the use of thermals is a little more technical, requiring a shorter reaction time from the pilot.

Our recommendation:

For optimum steering performance, we recommend aiming for the upper third of the Flying weight range range. This guarantees :

Good speed for your transitions.
Increased Stability in turbulence.
Better contact withglider for precise, comfortable steering .

That's why the BIRDY2 has been developed in 6 different sizes, covering the Flying weight range from 50 to 130 kg. As a result, theglider adapts perfectly to your morphology, offering you a precise, tailor-made flight experience, whatever your ambitions.

A design optimized for lightness and performance

The BIRDY2 is much more than a simple progression glider : it incorporates advanced design choices directly inspired by the techniques used on High gliders .

A redesigned vault

The arch of the BIRDY2 has been improved to offer a smoother, less flattened line. Result:

Easy inflation:glider rises smoothly and without jerking.
A playful attitude: ideal for developing your enjoyment of steering and making good progress.
Even stress distribution: Airfoil is less susceptible to deformation over time, for greater durability.

Thanks to this optimized design , the BIRDY2 combines lightness, durability and performance to accompany you in all your future flying experiences.

design for versatility

The BIRDY2 is a versatile glider that can, among other things, accompany you in your discovery of Hike-and-Fly thanks to its light weight. To achieve this balance between reduced weight and durability, the BIRDY2 incorporates :

Carefully selected materials combine strength and lightness.
An optimized internal structure with specific cut-outs that lighten Ribs / roads all over glider.
Reworked diagonals to reduce weight while maintaining a solid structure.
An innovative support band that improves top surface support for better performance and durability.

Lightweight yet tough, the BIRDY2 is ready to take on any challenge, from ground inflation to high-altitude adventures.

Doubly certified, doubly optimized

The BIRDY2 stands out for its double load-test certification, which guarantees optimized behavior and performance, from 50 to 130 kg Flying weight range.

In fact, the smaller sizes have been load-tested independently of the larger ones, allowing their specific features to be taken into account. This approach enables precise adjustment of the materials. For example, the smaller sizes benefit from lines finer, significantly reducing drag. As a result, performance is maximized, both in terms of handling and speed, for a refined and perfectly balanced flight experience whatever the size chosen.
