The Base 2 Lite has the same performance, fun factor and handling as its sibling but it is up to 22% lighter. It’s high on performance, easy and intuitive to fly and perfect for XC, vol-bivouac or soaring, with the safety of EN-B certification.

BGD Base 2 Light INFO

“Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery, none but ourselves can free our minds!” Bob Marley

Feeling tethered to the nine-to-five or crushed by the daily grind? You need some lightness to free your mind. Grab your Base 2 Lite, hike up to a launchable place and take to the open skies.

The Base 2 Lite is a high-performance sports class paraglider that is easy to handle and a joy to fly. It has the same great handling and feels like the standard Base 2, and pilots say they feel at home on it straight away. It speaks your language with clear, understandable feedback and ‘feely’ wingtips that tell you about the air. It’s relaxing to fly, leaving plenty of mental bandwidth for you to be working out where the next thermal will be, or whether that grassy ridge would make a good camping spot.

Its light sail makes for an even easier launch than the standard Base 2, and the brake pressure is slightly lighter. The base is in the name and the nature of this wing. It thermals beautifully, is smooth and relaxed in the turn and will get you up to the wispies in no time. For gliding on the bar, the C-steering handles are light to operate for effective steering.

BGD Base 2 Light FEEDBACK

Hey Martin! I’ve finally had a chance to get a few good flights in on on the BGD Base 2 lite I got off of you! Only soaring flights so far, but awesome nonetheless. I’m absolutely loving this wing - the feel and performance of it are just incredible and really confidence-inspiring. Thanks, man! Riley Freebody

The Base 2 Light S is a pleasure to fly with its very nice handling and authority on the brakes for a high B. The overall performance in climb and glide are among the good ones in that category. I think if you privilege fun, ease of use, with also plenty of cool performance, and especially a relatively comfortable glider to fly for the high B category, then the answer is simply the Base 2 Light.

You have to have the training and a licence to fly a paraglider. Check with your instructor if you are buying your first glider.
