YOUR ZENO 2
03
The Zeno 2 builds on the success of the original, retaining the same cell count and aspect ratio to maintain
the balance of comfort/performance/ease of use, whilst squeezing more performance, speed, and precision
out of the concept.
Developed alongside the Enzo competition wing project, the Zeno 2 features a completely new prole with
an increased cm+ and more rearward opening positions. This creates an ecient, pitch stable prole that
delivers a higher top speed and better glide performance throughout the speed range.
Performance wise we have seen some impressive gains: with a slightly faster trim speed and signicantly
faster top speed compared to the Zeno, it now matches the Enzo 3 in top speed and glide. Throughout
the normal XC speed range the wing remains comfortable like the Zeno, only becoming slightly more
demanding at the very top speed - but this speed is fast, signicantly faster than the Zeno and only
necessary for competitive nal glides.
Overall, the Zeno 2 oers a little more feedback compared to the Zeno, but always in an intelligible way,
remaining comfortable and condence inspiring for the target group. The heightened sensation makes it
easier to sni out the cores, follow the good energy lines and feel the air intuitively. The optimised internal
structure gives a solid planform with which to climb, in thermic turbulence the wing remains cohesive along
the span and the chord allowing the handling to be exploited whenever necessary. The turn response is
precise and dynamic - rm and precise in the rst part of the range whilst elastic and responsive in the
second.
Passive safety has been improved with less aggressive EN side collapse behaviour and better response
to frontals, the improved behaviour and increased cohesion of the sail is noticeable on the ground, with
impeccable launching characteristics.
Designed and developed for serious, experienced XC pilots who y at least 100hrs a year and have a
good understanding of SIV. The performance makes it perfect for both XC record hunting and top level
competitions.
