A completely new 2-line architecture built for distance hunters who want to carry less. The Hero 2 benefits from all of AirDesign's experience accumulated in recent years to deliver a durable, high-performance EN-D companion for vol-bivouac and adventure flying. Full-chord Nitinol rods save weight and allow compact packing without compromising structural integrity. Built from double-coated Dominico DOKDO-10DSF with nose-guard patches for durability on long expeditions. 57 cells, flat aspect ratio 6.95. Six sizes, XXS to L, all certified EN-D. M size weighs 3.8 kg with aramid risers — or 3.69 kg with ultra-light Dyneema risers.
