The Gin Bandit 2 is an ultralight EN-B intermediate that redefines what’s possible in a lightweight wing. It “sniffs out” thermals with an intuitive climbing ability that belies its featherweight construction, making it the ideal partner for hike-and-fly adventures where every gram counts.
Gin’s expertise in lightweight design shines through in the Bandit 2. At just 2.84–3.64 kg, it packs down small enough to fit in a speed-riding rucksack, yet delivers the performance and handling you’d expect from a full-weight intermediate. The take-off behaviour is remarkably easy — the light cloth rises smoothly and predictably, even in nil-wind conditions.
In the air, the Bandit 2 is a genuine XC tool. The glide is impressive for its weight class, the handling is precise and engaging, and the overall feel is one of confidence and connection. It’s not just a wing for the walk up — it’s a wing that makes the flight down worth every step.
