NOVA - DOUBLESKIN 2

New

The DOUBLESKIN 2 (EN/LTF A) can be many things – depending on its size, it can be a dynamic miniwing, a relaxed hike & fly wing, it can always be with you when travelling, and also a reliable thermal buddy. One thing is always true: it is ultra-light and super safe.

INFORMATION FROM MANUFACTURER WEBSITE

More sizes to suit every taste

With four sizes, the DOUBLESKIN 2 covers a total weight range of 55 to 120 kg and is EN A certified. The glider has a compact pack size and the smallest size (16) weighs just 2.41 kg. There is a suitable size for every requirement you have from your mountain paraglider. Another advantage of the DOUBLESKIN 2 is, with appropriate wing loading, it is suitable for training. This means you can enjoy the benefits of a safe, light wing from the very first flight. The different applications are shown in the diagram below.

Reliable companion

Thanks to a new airfoil and a A-lines that has been set further back, the DOUBLESKIN 2 is extremely collapse resistant. Glide performance and stability have been increased with an aspect ratio of 4.9 and it features a more complex structure: in comparison to its predecessor, diagonal ribs and more vector tapes are used. The compact wing remains stable even in accelerated flight and glides efficiently through unstable air. The direct handling enables effortless turning in tight thermals. In turbulent conditions, the high damping keeps everything smooth and prevents unwanted roll movements.

Flexible and relaxed at take-off

The clear and twist-resistant 7 mm wide Kevlar risers of the DOUBLESKIN 2 make launch preparation easier – from the very first flights to launches in challenging alpine terrain. The lines are short and their sheaths are colour-coded, which simplifies line sorting and increases durability. The launch behaviour of the DOUBLESKIN 2 is particularly easy in a wide range of conditions and with different techniques. The pilot does not have to adapt to the wing, the wing adapts to the pilot.

The ultimate in lightness

Designed for hike & fly, climb & fly and vol biv, ultra-lightweight products are built to be as light and compact as possible. To achieve this, we use the lightest materials and technologies available - but never at the expense of safety! For the longest possible enjoyment of the product, we recommend particularly careful handling of the equipment.

Several aspects of the DOUBLESKIN 2 have been optimised in this respect, for example, more cells and a more complex internal structure ensure better performance, stability and more precise handling. The DOUBLESKIN 2 uses maillons (instead of soft links) for the riser. This makes handling easier when changing lines and trimming. Compared to its predecessor, the DOUBLESKIN 2 weighs around 250 g more due to these optimisations.

The DOUBLESKIN 2 (EN/LTF A)

is aimed at pilots who appreciate a very safe and uncomplicated lightweight glider with smooth handling and a small pack size. Thanks to its suitability for training, the DOUBLESKIN 2 offers a great deal of confidence and flying fun from the very first flight. The classic application is hike & fly in all its facets. Depending on the wing loading and choice of size, the DOUBLESKIN 2 can also be used for relaxed thermalling. In size 16, with a high wing loading, the DOUBLESKIN 2 can even be flown as an agile ultra-light miniwing – it is certified as EN B in the extended weight range of 80 to 95 kg.
