Optimised cell widths
SmartCells counteract the variable force distribution within the
wing that is caused by the line attachments. In NOVA paragliders
constructed using SmartCells, the cell widths have been adapted
to the load – basically, intelligent cells. Wings with SmartCells fly
more calmly, are more compact and glide better.
Under pressure
NOVA Air Scoop is an optimised air intake, which increases the
internal wing pressure. NOVA's Air Scoop principle is similar to
the ram-air inlet duct on a sports car: increased airflow produces
higher pressure. Higher internal pressure in a paraglider means
improved performance through increased structural stability and
collapse resistance.
Shaped in top form
In 3D-shaping, a seam on the upper surface extends over the entire
span and reduces the amount of folds caused by the curvature
over two axes. Two axes, because the sail cloth has to align to the
profile form and the ballooning also determines a radius which the
cloth also has to follow.
The AONIC only has two line galleries: main lines and
gallery lines, but there is no middle gallery.
This means only very few line elements and as a result,
All NOVA paragliders are made to be easy to use. For packing you
can use a concertina bag, but it is not essential. Our extensive
experience with rods has taught us that the packing method has
little influence on the durability of the wing. Bent rods quickly
spring back into their original shape.
Paragliders in the weight-optimised category are lighter than
conventional paragliders but offer the same mechanical stability
and durability. These wings are lighter to carry, easier to launch and
are therefore suitable for hike & fly. Weight-optimised is
aimed at pilots who appreciate light weight without
