What did I learn flying the @go.flare.global Line 2 in Lauterbrunnen, Switzerland back in July 🇨🇭?!?

- much better launch
- lighter 
- shorter lines
- much more playful, easier to roll
- shorter, intuitive brake travel
- insane speed & dive
- flares for daaaaaayssss

What is different from LINE to LINE² ?

× Much shorter brake travel for a more agile and precise feel
× More responsive to weight shift and brake toggle inputs
× Higher brake position for best glide, making launches even easier
× Predictable, clear stall point and confidence inspiring like all FLARE Parakites
× Similar glide performance with a more dynamic character
× More dive and energy in turns
× More pop, speed and feedback through maneuvers
× Barrel rolls feel more intuitive, predictable, precise and snappier
× Shorter lines create a more compact and connected feeling
× Honest communication with clear feedback from the wing
× Adaptive winglets on sizes 15 and 17 for improved roll stability
× Powerful flare with a very defined stall point
× Mini Ribs help the wing stay in ground effect longer during swoops
× More intuitive and easier for speed riding
× Overall, a more direct, playful and refined evolution of the LINE design
× Sheathed Dyneema lines for fewer tangles

Anyone else fly it yet? What was your experience? Whose considering adding it to the quiver?

Ask me anything! I'm not an expert but I will answer what I can.

Enjoy! Thanks Beni @speedflyingschool it was rad to rip!

For people who are concerned - this was back in July before the rule change about where you can swoop here changed. Thanks Lars!
