Gin Falcon 2: Performance and Efficiency Without Compromise
The Gin Falcon 2 is a state-of-the-art reflex paramotor wing built for intermediate and advanced pilots who are ready to explore the full potential of powered flight. Whether you are aiming for fuel-efficient cross-country cruising, technical bivouac trips, or your first entry into competitions, the Falcon 2 provides a stable and agile platform. It transitions effortlessly from efficient thermal turns to high-speed, relaxed cruising with industry-leading stability.
Advanced Reflex Profile & Fuel Efficiency
Engineered with a sophisticated reflex airfoil, the Falcon 2 achieves exceptional aerodynamic efficiency. This allows the wing to maintain a stable, collapse-resistant profile even at high speeds and low engine RPMs, significantly reducing fuel consumption on long-distance flights. The wing remains rock-solid in turbulent air, providing the "on rails" feeling that is essential for high-speed navigation.
Refined 2D Steering System
Precision handling is at the heart of the Falcon 2. It features an upgraded 2D steering system, allowing pilots to vary their turn radius by coordinating inputs between the center of the wing and the wingtips. This level of control is a game-changer for technical maneuvers and provides a more connected, tactile feel during dynamic low-level flying or tight thermal work.
Innovative Riser & Trim Design
The Falcon 2 risers are designed for ergonomic efficiency. The system includes magnetic trim handles that can be stowed securely both above and below the buckle for a clutter-free cockpit. The trimmers are clearly marked in 25% increments for precise, symmetric adjustment, while high-quality Harken pulleys ensure smooth, friction-free operation of the speed system.
Effortless Launching & 56-Cell Precision
With a 56-cell architecture and a 5.5 aspect ratio, the Falcon 2 offers a clean, rigid surface that minimizes drag. Despite its performance pedigree, the wing is remarkably easy to launch. It inflates quickly and rises as a cohesive block without a tendency to "shoot" in strong winds or hang back in nil-wind conditions, getting you airborne with a shorter, more efficient take-off run.
Premium Construction Materials
Constructed with durability in mind, the Falcon 2 utilizes high-quality Myungjin MJ40 and MJ32 fabrics. These materials provide excellent UV resistance and water repellency, ensuring the wing stays "crisp" over many seasons of use. The line set is composed of Edelrid 8001 Series Aramid, chosen for its superior dimensional stability and low-drag profile.
