Description

We believe that the professionals and paragliding enthusiasts deserve only the best. So we created a tandem wing that is tough, super easy to handle and great value. We built it primarily for the demands of commercial tandem operations, who will enjoy all the qualities.

Bi 4 2 utilizes all our latest high tech design, production techniques and CNC machinery to bring you this superb economical solution to serve the demands of the smallest to the largest tandem business. Bi 4 2 is not short on design features and sophistication, yet, it has been optimized so that we can deliver a tandem wing at the best possible price for professionals.

Why will pilots like it?

  •  It is high on technology – low on cost. We think that the professionals need the support and the price is important. So, we created the best quality money buy in the tandem wings.
  •  We used our traditional 3D shaping, diagonal ribs and replaceable trim tab system because all the design features bring the pleasure to fly and make the life of a professional tandem pilot on a busy day easier.
  •  Bi 4 2 delivers durability. The take-offs might be rough and the glider is here to be used and serve the professionals and the duty requires to fly, not to waste the time by searching friendly take-offs.

R&D information

Designed and developed in the Swiss Alps by designer Alexandre Paux, the Bi 4 2 design brief was a tough one. To deliver the same high quality and great handling that our demanding professionals require, yet bring it onto the market at a competition busting price.
Alexandre explains how this was achieved.
“Tailoring a complex design to be economical to produce is just the sort of challenge I love. Making a clever and complex design, and then streamlining that design to meet the demands of the tandem professionals both with price and performance equals happy tandem op bosses and happy passengers.”
And we did it: Just give it a try yourself. Contact your dealer or fill in the table, we will link you with the right person to show you the glider.
