Design and Features
The PASSENGER 2 is engineered for precise handling with low control pressure, allowing easy maneuverability and efficient thermal lift performance.

Innovations
Chief designer Ernst Strobl incorporated several innovations, including the PPN and sharknose for profile fidelity, High Pressure Crossport Design (HPCD) for balanced internal pressure, and Miniribs with a Break Gathering System (BGS) for efficient brake force transmission. The riser includes an innovative trimmer system that maintains profile form for better gliding.
Materials and Durability
The canopy is made from a mix of Dokdo 30 and Dokdo 20 materials for low weight and high abrasion resistance. The Pro version uses PX40 material for extreme durability, beneficial for professional tandem operations.
