Description
LINE² – Next Generation Speedflying Parakite
Maximum precision. Full control. Pure speed. For those who push speed with purpose, here it is: the FLARE LINE²
The evolution of our dedicated speedflying parakite. Faster, sharper, and more versatile than ever before. It combines direct handling, outstanding stability, and confidence-inspiring control. From joyful mountain rides to full-speed runs – the LINE² is built to do it all.
The LINE² is designed for commitment. Every detail is engineered to transform input into instant response, giving experienced pilots the freedom to fly close, move fast, and stay in control. Powered by our signature FLARE System, you command every moment: tune lift, pitch, and acceleration instantly – directly from your hands.
Developed for pilots who refuse compromise, the LINE² blends speedflying precision with speedriding versatility. Sharp, responsive, and confidence-inspiring, it delivers a direct connection between pilot and wing across a wide range of mountain conditions. It’s faster. Sharper. More responsive. Welcome to a new definition of speed and control.

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
Skill Level & Wing Loading
Wing loading directly influences speed, handling and overall flight behaviour. Choose your size according to your experience and technical ability. Additionally please make sure to watch the "Sizes" video in our Academy section, which is dedicated to support your decision on what size to choose. Our "Recommended Take-Off Weight Chart" shows you how dynamically the wing reacts and which skill level it requires based on your take-off weight (at 0 wind speed).
SKILL LEVEL
WINGLOAD 4 - 5
Experience with miniwings is strongly recommended.
WINGLOAD 5 - 7
Solid speedflying experience is required.
WINGLOAD 7 - 8
Extensive high-performance speedflying experience is required, including confident handling of wings around 9 m².
WINGLOAD > 8
Professional-level experience in extreme speedflying is required, including safe operation of wings around 7 m².
We do not recommend, to footlaunch the LINE² with a wingload of 10 or higher.
How to calculate the wingloading yourself: Divide your take-off weight by the designed area of your parakite. Calculate the wingloading of your current parakite to compare to the skill chart. Choose the LINE² size that best suits your skills. The LINE² has a large speed range. Our parakites can be compared to paragliders/wings that are two square meters smaller. For example, a 13m² LINE² has a top speed similar to a 9m² speedflyer.
Know before you go
The LINE² is fast, precise, and highly responsive. It rewards active flying and a connected piloting style. Watch the FLARE Nation Academy series before you fly. It is important to choose a wing that matches your skill level in order to enjoy the sport to its fullest. The LINE² is designed for pilots with solid speedflying or speedriding experience who are looking for a direct and confidence-inspiring wing. Using equipment suited to your abilities not only increases safety, but also ensures that you get the most fun out of every session. From relaxed mountain cruising to full-speed runs, the LINE² is built to adapt to your style while keeping you in control.
What makes LINE² special?
FLARE System – Directly control angle of attack via brake handles.
Shark Nose – Keeps internal pressure rock solid, even when the air gets wild.
Mini Ribs – For an even faster glide – less drag, more flow.
Nitinol Rigid Foil – For a solid wing and long lasting performance.
Easy to launch – Forward or reverse, always easy to launch.
Wide speed range – From smooth playful runs to full-speed runs.
Light and strong – Premium Dominico for durability with minimal weight.
Ultra-responsive handling – Fly closer, carve harder, and flare sharper.
Adaptive winglets – Zippable winglets on sizes 15 and 17 allow you to increase or reduce roll response.
FLARE stall point – Very clear defined stall point.
Technical Data
In Flight
FLARE System
The FLARE System integrates dynamic angle-of-attack control directly into your brake input.
Through a defined pulley setup, brake travel progressively mixes in rear riser control:
• C level moves at a 1:3 ratio to brake travel
• B level moves at a 1:6 ratio
This controlled mixing changes the angle of attack in a defined way and allows you to adjust glide performance and energy through brake input.
Combined with the reflex profile and its positive pitching stability, the parakite maintains line tension and structural integrity even at higher speeds. The canopy naturally moves forward and stays pressurised.
The brake handles are connected via an elastic Free Brake Line for easier launch preparation. In flight, always keep the brake handles secured in the loops and never release them.
Features
Shark Nose
The Shark Nose is a leading-edge design that improves the performance and stability of the LINE². It helps maintain the internal pressure more effectively across different angles of attack, leading to a wider speed range, better handling and stall resistance in varying wind conditions.
Reflex Profile
The Reflex Profile keeps the wing stable at a low angle of attack and at full acceleration. The counter-arching pushes the trailing edge down and prevents a front stall. It is essential for controlling and depowering your parakite.
Mini Ribs
Mini Ribs are small internal ribs near the LINE² trailing edge that refine its shape. They improve airflow, reduce drag, and give the parakite a cleaner, more efficient trailing edge – enhance control and glide performance.
Adaptive Winglets
Zippable winglets on sizes 15 and 17 allow you to increase or reduce roll response. Allowing you reaching the next level.
Nitinol Rigid Foil
Engineered for uncompromising stability and efficiency. The LINE² Rigid Foil maintains its perfect shape in every condition while delivering maximum glide, precision, and control across the entire speed range.
Automatic Drainage System
The Automatic Drainage System hides in the internal construction of our parakite. Dirt and small objects that got inside the wing slide automatically from the middle section to the wingtips. They exit the wing through two big holes at the trailing edge of the wingtips.
Best Trim Labels
The FLARE LINE² has its best glide ratio when you pull your brake handles (not the brake handle loop) right until the colored marking on the riser. This is your best glide position.
