The 2024 FLY II is an evolutionary leap compared to the previous model: new materials, even more advanced 3D shapes and a variety of innovations significantly improve the performance and driving experience.
Retaining the unique concept of high lift coefficient, the FLY II features higher rigidity combined with balanced twist behavior, which significantly improves handling and control in strong winds. The tension distribution, derived from windsurfing sail design, has been fine-tuned to improve upwind speed and handling during maneuvers. The front profile has been redesigned to increase control with the wing close - a big advantage even when riding trapeze. Additional Leading Edge (LE) segments on the wing tips reduce air resistance, provide increased stiffness and enable a more upright wing position. The front tube has been equipped with an additional stiffener in the middle on the leading edge, which increases stability in the area in front of the fill panel and makes the wing significantly more forgiving when turning.
The FLY II is now made entirely of Teijin LE Dacron, which significantly improves profile stability. The Trailing Edge Panels are made from Challenge Code 95 and enable exceptional rigidity and long-lasting dimensional stability. All windows now feature Dyneema X-Ply for an optimal balance of visibility, light weight and durability. The newly designed and positioned windows offer significantly improved visibility.
