SOL - Torck 2
Price: $4100.00
Product Code: 400
Product Status: available
We know that 50% of our time in flight is spent climbing in thermals, and for this reason we sought a design that offers a clear advantage in this regard, compared to other projects of the same class available on the market.
The Torck 2 offers excellent performance in thermals and in transitions, ensuring good flights for its pilots.
SOL Paragliders are known for their durability and performance. Our tests and research conducted mainly on aerobatic and competition wings give us the knowledge to choose the right materials. In the Torck 2 we have a substantial reduction of weight and drag due to the use of WTX-40 Gr/m2 cloth in the entire wing, while ensuring that it retains its performance over time. So we feel confident in saying that we have the best weight / performance / durability ratio on the market.
Certified EN D for pilots seeking a paraglider that achieves great performance without sacrificing the security level of the category.

THE PILOT, AND THE WING’S BEHAVIOR DURING FLIGHT
The Torck 2 was developed for pilots with a few years of experience, who are familiar with performance gliders, and are flying great distances, and in competitions; and also for pilots flying intermediate wings who have accumulated the experience to move up to a first performance glider.
The Torck 2 has an immediate response to brake input, as well as high stability, leaving the pilot free to make the most of flight conditions.
Gains in performance, handling and thermal climbing have allowed a reduction in sail area, increasing glider strength and stability in flight.
DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION
The wing’s layout is advanced and modern, featuring more detailed construction, with 71 cells, and a higher aspect ratio than its predecessor, allowing complete utilization of the performance profile, without sacrificing the safety and handling desired for this project.
More efficient and accurate calculations were used, resulting in a smoother and cleaner sail. Diagonal tabs in all cells reduce the amount of lines and help in the precision of the whole set.
In the construction of the TORCK 2, SOL uses materials that allow us to guarantee the original characteristics of the equipment for 300 hours and/or 3 years.
SOL CONSTRUCTION CHARACTERISTICS
• 71 cells, and 10 of them are closed;
• Diagonals bands (A, B and C) in all cells;
