Design and purpose
Synthesis2 is a full-reflex canopy for beginner and fun pilots. Due to its stability can be used for basic PPG training. For those, who most of all need a safe paraglider. For those, who appreciate easy launch and steering. Speed enthusiasts will be happy too – Synthesis2 keeps the pace with sport wings.
If you are looking for a paraglider that is safe, universal, fast and user friendly – look no more. This is a synthesis of all these traits.
We’ve been working on the second version of Synthesis for a very long time. We’ve considered several ideas of this wing evolution. There were prototypes with better lift, better agility and many other assets, at times modifying the character of the wing so much that it was not a Synthesis any more…. Finally we’ve decided to implement in Synthesis2 very similar solutions that changed the Nucleon into Nucleon WRC (FET technology, riser improvements, modern ballooning etc.). Nevertheless we’ve kept the uncompromising, legendary stability of the Synthesis on the same, highest possible level, adding easier launch and better performance, resulting from introducing leading edge stiffeners as well as a lot of lesser yet important details.
Synthesis2 has fully reflex profile in all configurations of trimmers and speed system. We put special care to shaping cells in accelerated mode, being forced to use completely new design philosophy in that matter.
Right connections between mylar reinforcements and synthetic rods makes the inflation easier and the leading edge stiffer.
Another novelty is modified ALC+ system (new version of the ALC steering, with a handle and balls) – it is more efficient and operates proportionally, leaving impression of smoother handling.
Target group: From beginners to advanced fun flyers. Canopy is suited for basic training too. It will be a perfect match for a trike.
