Is it the speed you need? Performance? Do you search for the minimum sink? Is the peace of mind important for your long flights? So, here we are! We designed APOLLO 2 to be fast, safe, reliable and great fun to fly during your XC adventurous.

  • Product description

    We believe that safety is essential for all airborne activities. But being safe should not limit your performance, your competitive spirit and your determination to fly XC flights. APOLLO 2 is not created as a compromise between safety and performance but rather as the synergy between sporty spirit and comfortable, safe flying.

    Why do pilots like APOLLO 2?

    • EN/LTF B certified glider with a lot of passive safety;
    • Very easy take-off and that helps to discover the places off the principal and populated meadows;
    • A higher performance which pilots will appreciate in long-distance flights over the valleys where the speed and headwind penetration is needed;
    • Highly efficient thermalling which is a real piece of cake as it is not tiring and APOLLO 2 cores the thermals very naturally;
    • The wing is very compact and even we the performance is there, it is still very comfortable glider;
    • Very light wing (4.25 kg in M size) produced in 5 sizes to fit best your take-off weight.

    The main distinctive features are:

    • Three line plan minimises the drag and helps the pilots sorting out the lines and the pre-flight check a piece of cake.
    • LEO (Leading Edge Optimization) design ensures that the composite nose is highly structured and formed yet remains light and allows pilots very easy take offs even under challenging conditions.
    • The unique blend of Hypalon, nylon rods and mylar support the nose with perfect tension and minimises the tendencies to collapses.
    • The Triple 3D cut; two upper surface cuts and one lower, ensure the cleanest of curves to the foil. The end result is a highly efficient profile with excellent internal pressure values throughout the speed range that remains simple to launch, highly durable and yet simple to pack.
    • Proven three and a half rows and three-risers line concept with split A-risers for more comfortable ears.

  • R&D comments

    We listened carefully to pilots and their needs when they fly EN B glider. We also noted what people liked about APOLLO; they all agreed this is very comfortable wing to fly, they loved the spirit, they enjoy thermal flights and coring the rough thermals. They all asked even for higher performance and more stability.

    And we did it. APOLLO 2 is more stable, it uses different production technologies to improve performance and deliver sporty feeling and a little bit more performance. Just contact the designing team to learn more. The glider was designed by Alexandre Paux, and plenty of improvements during the demanding testing was made by a Turkish national aerobatics champion Artoosh Ghofoorian.

  • Scope of delivery

    Each glider is delivered with:

    • EYRIE 2 L backpack.  Well-cushioned back, shoulder and waist parts for more comfort. Conveniently placed pockets. Internal retaining strap.

    • T-shirt SKY TEAM. In Sky, a T-shirt gets as much attention as a paraglider. T-shirts are designed, cut, sewn and printed by us, in our manufacturing facility in the Czech Republic. They are made of cotton and bamboo fibres for comfort and durability.
    • SKY SLIM BAG SL. We realise that easy packing at the end of a good flight is essential to finish off the day in good spirits. Sky Slim makes it as easy and as simple as possible and the bag offers the ability to pack compact if desired.
