16 and 18, the certification changes as follows: 1.1 WHO IS IT DESIGNED FOR? EN C The Kode P is an accessible and light mountain wing to accompany you LTF C on your hike & fly adventures. We recommend that only pilots who are familiar with gliders of this Enjoy pleasant and more progressive handling in the classic sizes (20, 22, certification or above fly this paraglider.
Paragliders with moderate passive safety, potentially dynamic reactions The KODE P flies efficiently. It enters thermals with sufficient speed to to turbulence and pilot errors. The recovery to normal flight may require centre in the lift and climb progressively.

1.5 ELEMENTS/COMPONENTS For the construction process of the KODE P we use the same criteria, The KODE P is delivered with a series of accessories that will greatly quality controls and manufacturing processes as in the rest of our range.

2.4 HARNESS TYPE 2. UNPACKING AND ASSEMBLY The KODE P can be flown with all current harness types. If the chosen harness has an adjustable chest strap, we recommend setting this to the 2.1 CHOOSING THE RIGHT LOCATION distance recommended during certification, which will vary depending on the size of the harness.

The P models were designed with the idea of saving weight across the The use of the speed system results in changes to the speed but also the entire equipment. To achieve this, Niviuk decided to deliver the wings reactions of the wing. For more information, please see the certification without the classic Brummel hooks and opting for a kite-style knotting report.
The system or procedure for connecting the kite knot is exactly the same behaviour of the KODE P. In case it is necessary to modify the brake as the Brummel hooks and can be used in other systems or connection length, loosen the knot, slide the line through the brake handle to the elements.
3.6 LANDING vary. The KODE P lands excellently, it converts the wing speed into lift at your Having the knowledge that the testing house provides through the test demand, allowing an enormous margin of error. Wrapping the brake lines report is fundamental to learning how to deal with possible situations.
4.1 FLYING IN TURBULENCE Asymmetric collapse The KODE P has an excellent profile to buffer turbulence. It is very stable In spite of the KODE P’s profile stability, strong turbulent air may cause in all conditions and has excellent passive flight reactions, which makes it the wing to collapse asymmetrically, especially if the pilot is unable to fly very safe in turbulent conditions.

We recommend learning these maneuvers under the guidance of a If, for any reason at all, the KODE P’s brake lines become disabled in qualified instructor. flight, it will become necessary to pilot the wing with the C-risers and weight-shifting until landing.
To re-establish forward speed and the correct angle of attack, accelerate 5.3 SPIRAL DIVE once the ears are pulled. Keep the ears pulled in until you have lost the desired altitude. This is a more effective way to rapidly lose altitude. Beware that the wing Let go of the lines to re-inflate the tips automatically.
6.1 TOWING A pre-flight check is obligatory before each flight. The KODE P does not experience any problem whilst being towed. Only If you have any unforeseen incidents which may affect the areas where qualified winch personnel should handle the certified equipment to carry the equipment is most susceptible to damage, you should check and act out this operation.
If your wing is wet from contact with salt water, immerse it in fresh water Checking unsheathed lines and dry it away from direct sunlight. The KODE P is fitted with unsheathed lines whose durability is within the 7.2 STORAGE standards of unsheathed lines. Their strength is guaranteed and their resistance to UV is one of the highest in this type of lines.
