Dudziński was the Polish National Paragliding Champion in 1993 and 1998 and a member of the Polish National Team.[2]

The company has produced an ever-evolving line of paragliders, including the intermediate Ajos, the recreational Pasat and the cross-country Chinooka. The Buran was designed specifically for powered paragliding.[1] [3]

The company's gliders were noted by reviewer Noel Bertrand in 2003 as being inexpensively priced, compared to other paragliders on the market at that time.[1]
