Description
If mountains move you, you'll LOVE the KISS 2. Light, Original, Versatile, and Easy—it is an accessible mountain wing equipped with BGD's innovative Parakite (PK) mode option. Whether you are taking on high-alpine hike-and-fly adventures, soaring, thermalling, or launching in strong winds with skis or crampons, the KISS 2 adapts seamlessly to your flying style.
Key Features
- Dual PG & PK Modes: Easily switch between standard Paraglider (PG) mode and Parakite (PK) mode to expand your flyable wind window.
- Ultra-Light & Ultra-Packable: Weighing as little as 1.8 kg, it rolls into a compact package that fits into hand luggage or a small alpine rucksack.
- High Passive Safety: Excellent slow-speed behavior and forgiving flare characteristics make landings gentle, even in tight or technical terrain.
- Chord Cut Billow (CCB): 3D panel shaping eliminates 3D leading-edge wrinkles for enhanced stability and profile efficiency.
