NOVA Mentor paraglider NEW!
Mentor :: DHV 1-2

The MENTOR doesn’t only offer superior performance. With its easy handling and flight behavior, the wing offers this performance to a large group of pilots. In combination with the easy handling, the MENTOR offers relaxed flying fun for regularly flying pilots at a very high performance level.

Even in strong thermals, the MENTOR has enough handling reserves for tight turns whenever you need them. A little more brake and some weight shift is enough for the MENTOR to react with very little delay and you find yourself in an immediate high-banked turn. NOVA was able to reduce the effect of being pushed out of strong thermals, compared to the MAMBOO. Overall, the test team had lots of fun with this wing, and we are quite sure you will have fun too! $4100

NOVA International's Ibex Mountain Paraglider Ibex Mountain Paraglider

IBEX – the Latin root of the Capricorn (wild mountain goat) – is the new wing for alpinists and paragliding globetrotters. The design is based on the ROOKIE, which has gained an excellent reputation as a low-level DHV class 1–2 wing. The IBEX sports a 15 m2 surface and an impressively low weight of 2988 grams. But best of all, this featherweight wing packs extremely small, is safe to fly and allows launching at a wide range of wind conditions. Rather than typical lightweight mountaineering wings, NOVA dares to give full warranty! Available in three sizes. $3700

Note: NOVA is planning to DHV certify all three sizes of the IBEX. Definite information will be availble after the DHV test flights.

NOVA Shockwave Paraglider Shockwave

The Nova SHOCKWAVE has a special airfoil, that is why it is such a stabile cannopy which is very resistant to collapsing. A very high wing load is required for such a concept to work, which in turn produces the static stiffness of the profile. 

With only two mainlines per side and three line - levels (a,b,c) the shockwave has an extremly reduced line concept that specially benefits the performance at high speed.

The chosen line geometry is a guaranty for an equal load distribution on the whole wingspan.

The construction allows a very low minimum speed, which makes the take off and landing a lot easier. Also is the lower flyable minimum speed an easement in thermal flights. One size for 50-120k. $3700

NOVA Rookie paraglider Rookie :: DHV 1-2

The objectives for the development of the ROOKIE, as a successor to the popular SYNTAX, were relatively clear: Of course, to maintain the extremely security reserves of the SYNTAX. Another concern was a more precise handling characteristic which should not be reached at the expenses of a more nervous flight behaviour - we think that excellent damping characteristics are essential for a glider, that we recommend for beginners. $3900

NOVA RA paraglider RA :: DHV 2

The NOVA RA is a High performance wing in the DHV 2 class. It offers outstanding gliding and climb performance. Combined with its dynamic and sensitive handling, the RA opens up new possibilities in its class.

The NOVA RA impressively demonstrates the possible achievements in paraglider design, if modern aids like computer simulation, are used with the necessary amount of know-how and experience.

The RA was flown by our test pilots in many different conditions, and has impressed them most with its precise handling and the big safety margins. $4300
