Dudek’s Orca 2 is an EN B tandem paraglider for free flight, paramotoring and lightweight trikes.
Dudek say it launches easily, handles perfectly and has great passive safety, yet the performance of a solo wing.
Dudek are very well-known for their paramotor wings, and they have used their power expertise in the Orca 2, which they say has “some reflex traits” to keep it stable in bumpy conditions.
It uses mini ribs on the trailing edge to reduce trailing edge ballooning, and has 15% less line than the original Orca.
The Orca 2 is already certified EN B in the larger 42m2 size, which takes takeoff weights of 130-230kg; a smaller 38m2 version is in progress.
Dudek say the Orca 2 is the first wing to sport their new ‘post-cubist’ graphics, designed by artist and Dudek collaborator Włodzimierz Bykowski. It is available in blue, orange or maroon.
Dudek are very proud that their wings are all made in their Polish factory, where they say the designer himself keeps a close eye on proceedings.
