Skywalk ARAK AIR2: Maximum Versatility, Minimum Weight
The Skywalk ARAK AIR2 is the lightweight evolution of one of the most popular intermediate wings. By merging the performance of the ARAK with the ultralight materials used in the X-ALPS series, Skywalk has created a wing that is as at home on a remote mountain peak as it is in the local thermal. Starting at just 2.9 kg, it offers a compact packing volume without compromising on the flight comfort and performance required for long cross-country flights.
Ultralight Performance with SPEED CONTROL
Equipped with the advanced SPEED CONTROL system, the ARAK AIR2 allows pilots to steer via the rear risers while on speed bar. This allows you to compensate for turbulence and control your pitch efficiently, increasing your average speed during transitions. The wing’s internal construction has been optimized for weight and stability, using a mix of Nitinol and Nylon wires to maintain a perfect profile while keeping the canopy as light as possible.
Intuitive Handling & High Passive Safety
Designed to be easy and forgiving, the ARAK AIR2 features JET FLAPS technology, which extends the safety margin near the stall point and improves climbing performance. The direct and linear brake pressure gives you precise control over your bank angle, making dynamic maneuvers like wingovers a joy. Whether you are a progressing pilot or a seasoned adventurer, the ARAK AIR2 provides a balanced and safe flying experience that inspires confidence in all conditions.
