Skin 3
Much more efficient in turbulent conditions, headwind and for flying distance. Unlike other single-surface wings, its nature does not influence its flight behavior.
Durable lightness
The wing’s revolutionary new reinforced structure makes it possible to greatly reduce the number of lines and together with the use of semi-light materials makes it light and also durable.
Guaranteed accessibility
An EN B certified wing which is responsive, efficient and stable for greater flying comfort. More fun, more speed and a lot more accessible and simple to fly.
TARGET & ADVANTAGES
A pilot in the progression and learning phase will feel confident, thanks to the wing’s high stability and simple and intuitive handling. Safety and fun guaranteed.
Hike&Fly
The perfect adventure companion for mountaineers looking for new challenges. It takes off anywhere, with unprecedented accessibility and high passive safety
Vol-biv
Its improvement in glide, thermal performance and when facing adverse wind conditions permits safe distance flights like no other single-surface glider
- Using semi-light (Skin 3) and ultralight (Skin 3 P) materials ensures the wing is both light and compact.
- Nitinol (TNT) rods are used in the wing profile instead of conventional nylon rods.
- Better glide and improved behavior in headwind and turbulent air.
- Higher passive safety in the various phases of flight.
- Steady and fun flying.
- Easy to quickly recover in the case of any type of collapse.
- Increased brake travel for smoother and more precise landing.
Niviuk Technologies
Perfected leading edge
A self-inflating leading edge combined with a 3DL (3D Leading Edge) facilitates an easier and more straight-forward take off and a faster response and recovery in the case of a collapse. SLE technology gives stability to the entire wing profile and increases the ease of reaching higher speeds.
Evolution of the internal structure
A new distribution of ribs and diagonals optimises the distribution of the pilot's weight and the loads on the attachment points. The use of Nitinol (TNT) rods reinforces the structure by reducing the weight of the wing and provides the profile with shape memory.
Fewer lines for more performance
A better distribution of the loads allowed us to reduce the lineset by 44%. This contributes to lower overall weight, simplifies the pre-flight preparation and means less drag - for improved performance during all phases of flight.
