BGD Adam 2: Safety, Simplicity, and the Joy of Flight
The BGD Adam 2 is more than just a beginner wing; it is a dedicated school and accuracy glider designed to make the learning process stress-free and enjoyable. With a philosophy of “safe enough for your own child to learn on,” Bruce Goldsmith Design has refined this EN-A classic to offer even more comfort and security. From your first ground-handling sessions to your first cross-country hops, the Adam 2 provides the progressive stability and forgiving handling required to build confidence in the air.
Why Choose the Adam 2?
- Impeccable Spiral Stability: Unlike many low-aspect beginner wings, the Adam 2 has been extensively tested to ensure it never locks into a spiral, providing an essential safety margin for new pilots.
- Progressive Stability: Designed with a solid center and progressively softer tips, the wing “talks” to the pilot, teaching you to predict and avoid deflations in turbulent air.
- Student-Friendly Risers: The 20mm risers are color-coded and clearly labeled (Red for A, Green for B), making them easy to manage during pre-flight checks and big-ear maneuvers.
- Chord Cut Billow (CCB): BGD’s signature technology reduces panel ballooning and eliminates wrinkles, improving the rib profile shape and overall wing stability.
- School-Grade Durability: Built with high-quality Dominico 30D fabric, the Adam 2 is designed to withstand the rigors of heavy school use and extensive ground-handling practice.
- Effortless Launching: The elliptical cell openings and refined internal tensioning ensure the wing rises smoothly and stays overhead with minimal effort.
