TECHNOLOGIEN
3DL
3D Leading Edge
3DL technology is an adjustment of the fabric at the leading edge of the wing to control the ballooning and the creases that are generated by the curvature in this area. The leading edge is then divided into sub-panels which are sewn into each of the cells at the front of the wing. As a result, the leading edge of the wing is more evenly tensioned, which benefits the wing in performance and durability.
3DP
3D Pattern Cut Optimization
This technology seeks to implement the best orientation of the cloth on each panel according to its location on the leading edge. If the cloth pattern is correctly aligned with the load axes, the cloth suffers less deformation flight after flight, so the leading edge keeps its shape better and maintains its durability over time.
DRS
Drag Reduction Structure
With the application of the DRS, the airflow at the trailing edge is directed more progressively along the adverse pressure gradient with the aim of reducing the aerodynamic drag produced in this area. This increases performance without compromising safety or control of the wing.
RAM
RAM Air Intake
The Ram Air Intake system is characterised by the arrangement of the air inlets, to ensure optimal maintenance of internal pressure across the the whole range of angles of attack.
RSP
Reflex System Profile
The RSP is a profile designed to fit the technical characteristics of paramotor wings. It is a profile with self-stabilizing characteristics that gives greater pitch stability and provides more safety for the pilot when the angle of attack is lower (accelerated flight).
SLE
Structured Leading Edge
The SLE is a rigid structure located at the leading edge of the wing that eliminates the need for old-fashioned mylar reinforcements in this area, thus reducing the weight and increasing the durability of the wing. The leading edge will also have better turbulence absorbing qualities.
TNT
Titanium Technology
Nitinol is a combination of 50% nickel and 50% titanium. This technology provides three outstanding benefits that increase the performance of the wing, compared to plastic rods.

“It is not a paraglider, it is a rocket! Never before had I flown with a glider as fast as the Kougar 3. It is possible to exceed 80 km/h without the need to use a miniwing. To that we add a great precision in the handling and an incredible glide. All this with some of the simplest risers that exist. This glider will become my competition partner, but I intend to fly with it every day because it is so much fun!”
Julien Meyer
“I was a little uncertain as to how you could better the Kougar 2, as its been a glider that I have enjoyed immensely and it really has been my best flying buddy. The Kougar 3 pleasantly surprised me, I was pleased with the easy inflation with zero wind, the short distance that I had to run even considering that I was flying the 18m wing. The climb seems smooth & fast without any exaggerated force on the engine, a nice easy turn, with the option of speed when you need it. I look forward to flying the Kougar 3 a lot more, and it looks like Ive found my new flying buddy. Thanks Niviuk.”
Start your engine and discover a new way to fly! The Niviuk Link 2 was conceived as the ideal wing to enter the world of paramotoring. All aspects have been improved and it features more direct and intuitive control and excellent stability that will allow you to enjoy every moment in the air. The perfect link between your passion and pleasure.

“A-ma-zing. I do not have words to describe this new rocket! Thank you to the designers Nef Olivier, Tim Rochas and all those who contributed to the creation of such a machine! The Icepeak Evox is waiting for the sun to express its potential for miles! To be continued!”
Julien Irilli
“The feeling I get under the wing is more comfort, more security as well, and even when close to the relief, youre not afraid to accelerate. The wing gives you some room to focus on other things besides actual piloting, like observing how others are flying, take more time to check out the instruments and the conditions up in the air, so it makes a difference. “
Loïs Goutagny
“Me siento bien con esta vela, cómodo y seguro y en este tipo de deporte esto es importante. Me permitirá ir a explorar los Écrins, justo al lado de donde vuelo cerca de las grandes montañas. Si además te sientes bien, eso es mágico. “
Simon Pellissier
“At the piloting level, Icepeak Evox is quite present in the command. This presence / pressure gives a very good precision during turns and allows to get an interesting feedback. In thermal, the wing keeps a very good glide, it is easy to place it where you want, to refocus the ascendance and to tighten a thermal near the relief, especially in strong conditions.”
Der Niviuk Skin 3. Vergessen Sie alles, was Sie über Single-Surface-Segelflugzeuge gesehen und gehört haben. Der neue Niviuk Skin 3 vereint das Beste aus zwei Welten und zum ersten Mal bietet ein Single-Surface-Segelflugzeug die Eigenschaften und den Flugkomfort, die mit einem herkömmlichen Gleitschirm vergleichbar sind. Bequem, stabil, effizient und obwohl es nicht möglich erscheint, einseitig.
TECHNOLOGIEN
3DL
3D-Vorderkante
Die 3DL-Technologie ist eine Anpassung des Gewebes an der Vorderkante des Flügels, um die Ballonbildung und die Falten zu steuern, die durch die Krümmung in diesem Bereich erzeugt werden. Die Vorderkante wird dann in Unterplatten unterteilt, die in jede der Zellen an der Vorderseite des Flügels eingenäht sind. Infolgedessen wird die Vorderkante des Flügels gleichmäßiger gespannt, was dem Flügel in Bezug auf Leistung und Haltbarkeit zugute kommt.
3DP
3D-Schnittoptimierung
Diese Technologie versucht, die beste Ausrichtung des Stoffes auf jeder Platte entsprechend ihrer Position an der Vorderkante zu erzielen. Wenn das Stoffmuster korrekt mit den Lastachsen ausgerichtet ist, erleidet der Stoff Flug für Flug weniger Verformung, sodass die Vorderkante ihre Form besser behält und ihre Haltbarkeit über die Zeit beibehält.
RAM
RAM-Lufteinlass
Das Ram Air Intake-System zeichnet sich durch die Anordnung der Lufteinlässe aus, um eine optimale Aufrechterhaltung des Innendrucks über den gesamten Anstellwinkelbereich zu gewährleisten.
SLE
Strukturierte Vorderkante
Der SLE ist eine starre Struktur an der Vorderkante des Flügels, die in diesem Bereich keine altmodischen Mylar-Verstärkungen mehr benötigt, wodurch das Gewicht reduziert und die Haltbarkeit des Flügels erhöht wird. Die Vorderkante hat auch bessere turbulenzabsorbierende Eigenschaften.
TNT
Titan-Technologie
Nitinol ist eine Kombination aus 50% Nickel und 50% Titan. Diese Technologie bietet drei herausragende Vorteile, die die Leistung des Flügels im Vergleich zu Kunststoffstangen steigern.

PILOTEN
“I have been a Skin fan since its inception. I appreciate this type of glider for Hike and Fly in high mountains. It allows committed take-offs that could not be done with another wing. I was lucky to try the latest Skin model in Greenland. I especially appreciate the evolution of this version regarding take-off quality, flight feel, simplicity and efficiency of the trim system, as well as landing. The glider rises more quietly over the head and allows easier control. In flight, the spinning sensation is very similar to that of a standard paraglider and the trim system offers real acceleration. In the wind, it keeps moving forward. Upon landing, I was even surprised by a real retention. The Skin is a true adventure companion to always have in the bag. “
Luc Hentsch
FAQs
What kind of flights are possible with the Skin 3/3P?
The next generation of the Skin will broaden your horizons. With its great performance and excellent maneuverability you can travel for miles and complete vol biv adventures. The fact that it is a single-surface wing does not influence its flight behavior and it flies like a standard wing. In addition, it is a very suitable wing for pilots who are in their progression and learning phase as it transmits a lot of confidence and offers great accessibility
Can I turn in thermals?
Without a doubt! Both models are designed for the pilot to enjoy more than top-to-bottom flights or sled rides. Precise control and its small turning radius allow not only thermalling, but also precise centering in the cores. In both Skin 3 and Skin 3P the feedback about the air mass is direct, as it is in conventional wings.
What are the main new features?
The main new feature is its flying characteristics. The Niviuk Skin 3 is a glider that is easy to use, solid and really fun to fly. This translates into comfort during flight and is complemented by high passive safety so that the pilot can totally enjoy the experience.
