Choosing the right Dudek glider...
Expert guidance to help you fly with confidence and safety.
From first flights to world champions, Dudek offers the broadest range of gliders in the sport. This guide provides a brief overview to help you understand the differences between categories and match a glider to your flying goals. For detailed technical specifications, visit each glider’s individual page.,
Your first. Your finest.
☑️ Nemo 5
Confidence from day one.
☑️ Solo
Simple, stable, school-friendly.
☑️ Universal 1.1
One wing, endless possibilities.
The entry level category includes three versatile options.
The Nemo 5 is the classic choice, built with uncompromising stability and safety, making it the ultimate gateway glider.
The Solo introduces a permanent semi-reflex profile, offering a balance of performance and simplicity; it remains beginner-friendly with an easy-to-use riser system, making it especially well-suited for new pilots and schools.
The Universal is the most adaptable of the group, with risers that allow pilots to fully customize their flying experience — from a non-reflex trim setting for training and relaxed flights, to semi-reflex for everyday versatility, all the way to a full reflex for confident cross-country performance.
Together, these gliders give pilots a safe and progressive pathway to build skills and unlock more performance at their own pace.
Beginner to adventurist.
☑️ Universal 1.1
The wing that grows with you.
☑️ Nucleon 4
Speed, stability, and purpose.
These gliders are the sweet spot for many pilots — the moment when you step up from training gear into a wing that opens the door to real cross-country flying but without the pressure of a full high-performance design.
You’ve mastered the basics, and now the sky is yours to explore. Dudek’s intermediate wings are the natural next step for pilots serious about progression. They deliver the performance you crave for long-distance adventure, while preserving the passive safety and comfort that let you fly with confidence. They achieve the perfect balance of efficiency, control, and security — the ideal companion as you transition from student to skilled cross-country pilot.
The Universal 1.1 is exceptionally versatile: trimmed in, it offers beginner-friendly stability and freeflying capability; trimmed out it transforms into a full reflex-wing that devours distance.
The Nucleon 4, by contrast, is a dedicated upper-intermediate wing built for pilots who measure their flights in miles, not minutes.
Command the sky.
☑️ Hadron 3
Distance. Speed. Mastery.
☑️ DriftAir
Agility Unleashed.
You’ve logged 150+ hours, mastered intermediate wings, and understand stepping into an advanced glider is a significant milestone. You’re confident, comfortable in the air, and ready for next-level performance. That’s why Dudek — backed by over three decades of meticulous R&D — has created two advanced gliders with expansive performance envelopes, all without compromising the comfort and safety you’ve come to rely on. Each is designed to transform your hard-earned expertise into pure performance, unlocking the sky in ways you never imagined possible.
At this performance level, Dudek gliders branch into two distinct paths. One designed for cross-country performance — built for efficiency, stability, speed, and long-distance mastery. The other focused on maneuverability and handling — offering precision, responsiveness, and dynamic control for pilots eager to push their limits in active air. Choosing between them comes down to your flying goals:
-
XC Performance: for pilots chasing distance, efficiency, and smooth glides over long hours — Hadron 3
-
Agility & Handling: for pilots who prioritize tight turns, crisp reactions, and playful flight dynamics — DriftAir
Both wings showcase Dudek’s top-tier safety, technology, and performance. The only question is: which kind of adventure will you choose?
Weapons of world champions.
☑️ Warp 3
Classic Competition World Champion.
☑️ Snake 4
Slalom precision, podium proven.
This is where Dudek’s heritage and uncompromising approach to technology are at a pinnacle. Here expert pilots aren’t just buying a glider — they’re investing in a finely tuned instrument. They demand performance, precision, and the confidence to push boundaries. Dudek delivers with two distinct competition wings for seasoned pilots.
The newly released Warp 3, fresh off its victory at the 12th FAI World Paramotor Championship, is built for classic competition and cross-country mastery — blending speed, stability, and efficiency for long-distance performance.
Meanwhile, the Snake 4 has established itself as the ultimate slalom weapon, winning both the PF1 and PL1 categories at the 2024 FAI World Paramotor League Cup and securing the title at the 2025 Polish Open.
Together, these wings represent the apex of Dudek’s performance engineering, each highly specialized for its style of competitive flying.
Choice of trike pilots.
☑️ Cabrio
Stability Made Rugged.
☑️ Boson
Performance and Handling, Reinforced.
A paraglider wing designed for a trike is a different beast altogether. It’s about blending rugged durability with precise control to meet the unique demands of high-hang-point powered flight. Dudek’s trike-exclusive wings are engineered from the ground up with the added strength, weight capacity, and shorter risers required for trikes — creating a seamless connection between pilot and glider. The result is effortless launches, powerful climbs, and stable, responsive handling that inspires total confidence in any condition.
Cabrio:
Based on the proven Solo, the Cabrio is a rugged trike wing built for stability, simplicity, and ease of use. With its forgiving, beginner-friendly handling in a durable package, it’s ideal for pilots and schools making the transition into trike flying.
Boson:
Holding the FAI world records for both straight-line distance and closed-circuit distance without landing, the Boson stands as a benchmark in trike performance. Derived from the Hadron, it brings advanced cross-country capability into a reinforced trike-ready form. With its blend of efficiency, speed, and stability, the Boson is built for experienced trike pilots who demand serious distance and handling without compromise.
