BGD Magic 2 paraglider overview

The BGD Magic 2 paraglider is an EN/LTF-A wing designed to keep new pilots smiling while they progress. Instead of feeling dull or over-damped, it stays safe and predictable while still giving enjoyable, clean handling. As a result, you can focus on learning and building confidence rather than constantly “managing” the wing.

Certification: EN/LTF-A
Category: EN-A progression / first-wing paraglider
Weight: size M is 4.8kg
Designed for: first soaring, learning to thermal, early XC

BGD Magic 2 EN/LTF-A safety and handling

Because it’s EN-A certified, the Magic 2 is built to be forgiving. However, “forgiving” shouldn’t mean boring. Therefore, the wing is tuned for smooth, refined turns with the right amount of feedback, so you stay informed without feeling overwhelmed.

Excellent passive safety to reduce surprises while you learn
Smooth, refined handling with useful, calm feedback
Forgiving behaviour when technique is still developing

Who the BGD Magic 2 paraglider is for

The BGD Magic 2 paraglider suits pilots choosing a first wing and wanting something they won’t outgrow immediately. In other words, it sits above a pure school wing (like the Adam 2) and then carries you forward into “real” flying goals. Consequently, it’s a strong option if you want EN-A safety with performance you can actually use.

New pilots who want a first paraglider with EN-A safety
Pilots moving from training to soaring and thermalling
Pilots aiming for early XC on an EN-A wing

BGD Magic 2 launch behaviour

Launching is where confidence starts. For that reason, the Magic 2 is designed to inflate cleanly and rise smoothly. It doesn’t tend to lag in the rise phase, and it remains forgiving if you pull the A-risers too eagerly while you’re still refining your launch timing.

BGD Magic 2 thermalling and XC potential

Once you’re airborne, the Magic 2 feels smooth and intuitive. Moreover, it turns neatly and climbs efficiently in lift, which helps you learn thermalling technique sooner. As your skills grow, you can then start linking thermals, extending flights, and exploring early XC while staying in the EN-A category.

BGD Magic 2 design features (CCB, progressive stability)

Modern design features help the wing stay stable and efficient. For example, BGD use structural choices that support a clean profile and consistent brake feel. In addition, in-house simulation tools allow the team to test large numbers of virtual prototypes and refine the structure before physical prototypes are built.

Chord Cut Billow (CCB) for cleaner leading-edge shaping and a stable profile
Progressive Stability for a calm core feel with helpful feedback as conditions build
High taper planform to balance handling and performance
Internal seams to help keep the surface clean and durable

BGD Magic 2 specs and certified weight range

Size choice should be based on your all-up flying weight (pilot + clothing + harness + reserve + kit). If you sit between sizes, your goals matter too. For example, lighter loading can feel calmer, while higher loading can feel more dynamic. Either way, ask us if you want a quick recommendation.
