Congratulations on your purchase of the BGD DUAL 2
The DUAL 2 is suitable for both commercial and recreational tandem flying. Exceptional handling combined with good
speed and performance make this a wing a real pleasure to fly. It is very easy to launch, requiring only a very short take-
off run, helping you get airborne safely with first-time passengers who are not used to running. Handling is light, direct
and intuitive, and the DUAL 2 has an excellent climb rate and an outstanding sink rate.
Your new paraglider has been designed to a high standard of safety and stability, but it will only retain these
characteristics if it is properly looked after. This manual has been prepared to give you information and advice about
your paraglider. If you ever need any replacement parts or further information, please do not hesitate to contact your
nearest BGD dealer or contact BGD directly.
Please read this manual carefully from the first to the last chapter to ensure you get the best out of your new wing.
