Doppelter Spaß
Der neue K2³ ist etwas leichter als sein Vorgänger, ohne dabei Kompromisse in der Langlebigkeit des Materials einzugehen. Das war uns sehr wichtig, war der K2² doch gerade auch für seine Haltbarkeit im kommerziellen Dauergebrauch bekannt. Die Trimmer wurden ein bisschen verstärkt und afgepeppt. Sie sind jetzt ersetzbar. Höchste Qualitätsmerkmale in Material und Verabeitung zeichnen den K2³ aus. Von Piloten wird er darüber hinaus für sein einfaches und angenehmes Handling gelobt. Sowohl für den kommerziellen als auch für den privaten Gebrauch ist der K2³ ein erstklassiger Tandemschirm.
- positive und negative Trimmer
- Nylon-Stäbchen in der Eintrittskante (FSS)
- leichter und gleichzeitig hohe Langlebigkeit
- 2 Größen
- neue schmutzresistente Standardfarben
- zurückgeschwungene Flügelenden
- hervorragende Starteigenschaften
- sportliches Aussehen
- SM Größe ist für Solo- und Tandemflug zugelassen
Although it has almost turned into a PG business tandem marketing platitude, this tandem really does handle like solo wing - and that from the moment you touch the risers to launch it and until you and your happy passenger are back on the ground; if it wasn´t for the clicking noise from the camera you could be excused for forgetting that the passenger is even there! Just make sure you don´t go off on long XC´s when there are paying passengers waiting...
Available in two sizes, the K2-3 can be flown at its sweet spot by almost everyone...
The 2D diagram clearly shows the all new canopy − the elliptical predecessor was replaced by a wing design with a large sweepback angle, which makes the K2-3 a pleasure to launch. The swept back wingtips, first introduced in our competition wings, not only reduce drag but add to the arrow−like visual effect of this glider. Nylon battens instead of mylar in the leading edge reduce the packing volume and add to the easy launching characteristics.
Safety and maintenance:
Make sure to check your K2-3´s risers, trimmers, lines, fabric and buckles for abrasion and damage before each flight. To protect the kamet buckle and to reduce abrasion on the trimmer strap, we recommend to regularly apply a drop of oil on each side of the axis that holds the spring, as shown in the picture below. This ensures that the teeth of the Kamet buckle lock firmly into the trimmer strap. Do not let any oil get onto the trimmer strap.
