HIGH FUN, LOW STRESS
The Atlas 2 is an easy intermediate wing for beginning and leisure pilots who want a confidence-inspiring wing that still offers great XC possibilities.
The Atlas 2 aims to offer comfort in a wide range of conditions but with enough performance in climb and glide to keep a smile on your face.
- easy inflation and smooth take-off
- well-damped pitch control in strong conditions
- comfortable and reassuring handling with a well co-ordinated turn
- long and progressive brake travel for a wide safety margin
- useful ”thermal sniffing” ability
- improved real world performance in weak and strong conditions
- extended weight range (S and M sizes) for flying at higher wing loadings

DETAILS
- Optimized airfoil with 2nd generation Equalized Pressure Technology (EPT) for stability and performance
- Low line consumption: 3 risers / 2 main lines spanwise
- Internal construction with well chosen crossports maintains even sail tension
- Nylon rods in top sail trailing edge help maintain the shape of the profile in turbulence, which means better performance
- Low friction rings on the brake lines provide smooth operation and prevent twisting and are easily replaceable
- Split ‘A’ risers for easy big ears
- Mini-ribs on the trailing edge improve handling and performance
- Efficient speed system with Ronstan pulleys
- Gathering (reefing) system on the trailing edge for smooth and well-defined handling
- Nylon rods are soft, shape-retaining and durable, but can be easily replaced if necessary
