PROGRESSIONCROSS COUNTRYPARAMOTORPROGRESSIONThe Qubik 2 is an intermediate paramotor wing designed for everyday recreational use and for pilots who are starting to want to fly longer distances more efficiently. This improved model offers a more direct and comfortable handling, making take offs easier thanks to its lightened and simplified internal structure and its lineset. The new Qubik 2 features three, rather than four line areas. You will be able to make longer and faster flights without compromising the safety and stability you need.
Cross-country
A stable and safe progression wing for those distance flights you’ve always wanted to do. The Qubik 2 is ideal to take you out of your comfort zone and encourage you to progress with longer flights and extra speed.
Recreational flying
You can use it for any of your recreational and daily flights. The Qubik 2 has been designed to enjoy everyday and distance flying with more direct and efficient handling. Explore new routes with confidence.
The Qubik 2 inflates progressively, facilitating a controlled launch with minimal pilot effort and no pitching movements.
During landing, it allows precise speed control, ensuring smooth and safe manoeuvres and turns at all times.

3DL technology is an adjustment of the fabric at the leading edge of the wing to control the ballooning and the creases that are generated by the curvature in this area. The leading edge is then divided into sub-panels which are sewn into each of the cells at the front of the paraglider. As a result, the leading edge of the wing is perfectly tensioned, which benefits the wing in performance and durability.
A good comparison is a rugby ball. In order to produce its characteristic oval shape without creases, its cover is made of several panels – not of just one piece.
The application of this innovation, in conjunction with the 3DP, is key to converting the perfect shape from 2D to 3D.
The RAM Air Intake system is based on the inward orientation of the air inlets in the profile so that they allow an optimum internal pressure at all angles of attack.
The result? Having greater internal pressure means better buffering of turbulence, greater consistency of the profile shape across the speed range. Excellent handling at low speed is achieved by allowing the pilot to extend the braking limit, so there is a lower risk of collapse and consequently, greater control and stability.
This technology seeks to implement the best orientation of the cloth on each panel according to its location on the leading edge. If the cloth pattern is correctly aligned with the load axes, the cloth suffers less deformation flight after flight, so the leading edge maintains its shape better and remains stronger over time.
The design of our paraglider and paramotor wings has evolved a lot over the years, with a positive and specific focus on the leading edge.
Thanks to this technology and 3DL, a perfect modelling of the panels and an exact representation from 2D to 3D is achieved.
Nitinol is a combination of 50% nickel and 50% titanium. The incorporation of Nitinol rods in the profile increases the performance of the wing, especially in three areas:
- Compared to nylon rods, the weight of the wing is reduced by 13%.
- Nitinol has two essential characteristics: shape memory and enormous elasticity. As a result, the rods retain their optimum shape even after an ultra-compact or incorrect folding, so that the wing is not deformed. This will always be the case unless the radius at the point of curvature is less than 1 cm.
- The leading edge shape is much more rigid and uniform which results in a much more consistent and progressive inflation and therefore an easier take off. The profile is taut at all times, without creases, and fully optimised for all flight phases.
In addition, the rods have a plastic protector at their ends to prevent any damage to the fabric of the wing.
Nitinol is now featured in all our wings.
Mini-ribs have been incorporated into the trailing edge for a cleaner profile, eliminating external seams and protecting them from wear when in contact with the ground. DRS technology allows for reduced drag and improved brake pressure, making it smoother and reducing the pressure needed to manoeuvre.
The reflex of the profile curvature and arc have been optimised to improve pitch stability. The flight angles have been widened, increasing the speed range and adapting the wing to the demands of this category.
The lineset has been simplified from four to three lines, compared to the previous model. This update not only lightens the glider, but also simplifies pre-flight preparation and significantly reduces drag, thus maximising performance and efficiency.
The Qubik 2 features tip steering, an additional brake designed for high speed flight. This system improves manoeuvrability, offering more direct and precise control, ideal for a more dynamic experience in the air. It can be used in conjunction with the main brake, or independently.
The internal structure of the Qubik 2 has been redesigned, optimising ribs, diagonals and attachment points. In addition, air inlets with RAM technology ensure uniform and constant internal pressure, improving the stability and uniformity of the glider. This increases performance and optimises fuel consumption.
The Qubik 2 is very durable thanks to the integrated Nitinol rods in the leading edge, which retain the optimal shape of the wing even after compact packing.
The leading edge of the Qubik 2 incorporates an additional longitudinal seam and uses 3DP technology to ensure uniform, crease-free tension, resulting in a perfectly smooth and aerodynamic profile.
