ION 7 (Light) technologies
Think outside the box
Instead of dividing the in-built rods and fixing both curved pieces
with seams, the rods here simply form a loop. This saves on seams,
supports the Air Scoop principle and has no disadvantages in terms
of weight and packing volume.
Consistent at top speed
Using thin webbing at the leading edge, the upper and lower
surfaces are connected in the middle of each cell. This promotes
leading edge solidity in flight, which is particularly beneficial to
performance when flying at speed.
Flat profile nose
Anyone who tries to fold a piece of paper around a ball will notice
that there are always creases. The nose profile of a paraglider
is the same – the sail cloth has to adjust to both the profile and
ballooning effect (cells are round, not straight). Double 3D Shaping
uses additional seams to reduce creasing and therefore increases
the performance of the wing.
The ION 7 (Light) 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.
ION 7 Light | Light, durable and suitable for everyday use
Developed in line with the motto "as light as possible, and as
solid as necessary", we rely on a smart design and choice of
materials. Where possible, we use lightweight fabric, with sturdier
cloth in the areas of heavier wear. This way we can guarantee
long durability, high performance and easy handling with
little weight. The paragliders are light, fully usable for
everyday flying AND durable.
