Share the Sky with Confidence: The BGD TANDEM Glider

Flying is incredible, but sharing that experience makes it unforgettable. The BGD TANDEM Glider is built specifically for pilots who want to take others along for the ride—safely, comfortably, and with absolute control. Whether you’re a tandem professional, a flight school instructor, or simply enjoy flying with friends, this glider offers the perfect mix of performance and reliability.

Designed for Performance and Stability

The BGD TANDEM Glider stands out with its balanced handling and responsive control, even under the added weight of a second passenger. Because of its refined profile and smooth inflation characteristics, takeoffs become easier—even in variable wind conditions. Furthermore, its stable nature makes for a calm, enjoyable flight for both pilot and passenger.

Built Tough for Daily Use

Tandem flights naturally come with more wear and tear, so durability is essential. Fortunately, the BGD TANDEM Glider is constructed from high-quality materials, reinforced in all the right places. As a result, it handles repeated takeoffs, rougher landings, and frequent folding without compromising its structure. Moreover, it remains lightweight enough for easy transport and setup.

Efficient, Comfortable, and Safe

Comfort matters—especially for the passenger. That’s why the BGD TANDEM Glider features an optimized line layout and excellent pitch control, ensuring a smooth, confidence-inspiring ride. Additionally, the large surface area enhances lift, enabling longer flights and easier thermalling. Instructors and pros will also appreciate its intuitive brake pressure, which allows for precise maneuvering.

Versatile for Schools, Professionals, and Recreational Pilots

Whether you’re teaching beginners or flying with friends on scenic adventures, the BGD TANDEM Glider adapts to your needs. It performs well across a wide range of weight loads, and thanks to its forgiving behavior, it’s especially suited for less-experienced passengers. Also, its visually striking design adds a touch of flair to every launch.https://paraglidingexplorer.com/product/gin-fuse-pilot/

TARGET

Remember that feeling, the first time your feet leave the ground and you are soaring, feet in the clouds, viewing the world from a different perspective? If you could bottle that feeling and share it around … that’s what the DUAL 2 is for – sharing the joy of flight!

A clean take-off is absolutely critical to a safe and successful tandem flight. The DUAL 2 takes the load quickly and the short run required is a huge step forward for passenger safety. We’ve made the Dual 2 in three sizes: the 42m², 40m² and the 38m² covering all-up weights 100-220kg.

DESIGNER’S NOTES BGD TANDEM Glider

With this project I wanted to make a tandem that is ridiculously easy to launch as not all passengers are willing runners, but I didn’t want to sacrifice that light and sensitive handling that was so highly praised in the original DUAL. To achieve this we designed a whole new single plastic shark nose just for this wing. In the air the handling is a delight and thermalling is outstanding. The whole team are very happy with the outcome. It’s a pleasure to fly, and a dream to launch: two steps and away!
