Congratulations on buying your 

NIKITA 5 

and welcome to the family of ICARO - pilots! 

 

Before you get to know your glider please read the 

manual, there are any important items. 

  Your 

NIKITA 5

  is not pattern tested valid using any harness which has been 

categorized by “GH” and may be only used for those purposes described in this 
manual. 

 

The NIKITA 5 cap was only undergoing a load test.

  

 

It is strictly prohibited to use the  NIKITA 5  

 

under the influence of drugs or alcohol, 

 

in insufficient experience or training of pilots,  

 

without guilty license, 

 

beyond the minimum and maximum recommended Take Off- Weight,  

 

with damaged glider, lines, risers or harness and 

 

in the rain, in snow, in the clouds and fog and in turbulent weather 
conditions. 

  Our products are made with great care and state of the art.  

  Each glider before it is delivered to the dealer or flight school is checked by 

ICARO paragliders (incoming test). Test flights are made only on a random 
basis. 

  On that score an approved ICARO dealer or teacher of the flight school must 

inflate a new ICARO paraglider in the wind or should carry out the first flight 
before the wing is handed over to you.  

  The use of this paraglider is entirely at your own risk. Every pilot bears the 

responsibility of his/her own safety.  

  In order to get to know your glider, we recommend that you practice with your 

glider on the ground. Pulling up in flat gradients is great practice for fine tuning 
your launch techniques. Here you can get to learn the reactions of your glider 
without any stress and hectic. Ground practice pays off in the air. 

  All technical data and instructions were drawn up with great care.  

ICARO paragliders cannot be made responsible for any possible errors in this 
manual.  

  Important information in this manual is written in 

fat cursive writing

  Any important changes to this manual will be published in our homepage 

(

www.icaro-paragliders.de

). 

  Should you decide to sell this glider at a later date, please pass on this manual 

to the new owner.
