WELCOME

We wish to welcome you to our team and thank you for the confi dence, which 
you have placed in a NIVIUK Glider.
The PEAK is a completely innovative glider, carefully designed by the NIVIUK 
team to achieve new standards in the Serial Class.
The very latest technological innovations which have been used in the design 
of the NIVIUK competition wing, the ICEPEAK XP have been also been used 
in design of the PEAK. Add to this the passion of our design team and we can 
now offer you the ultimate serial glider. 
Our aims were to create a serial glider with features as close as possible to 
its bigger brother and this has been achieved beyond our wildest dreams. In 
the development of the PEAK the NIVIUK team, directed by Olivier Nef, have 
achieved performance and stability not yet seen in this category. With an 
aspect ratio of 6.6 we feel that the overall qualities of our competition glider 
have successfully been transferred to the Serial class.
We are sure that you will enjoy fl ying this wing and that you will soon fi nd out 
the meaning of our slogan:

“Give importance to the small details to make big thing happen”

This is the user manual, which we recommend you take time to read
in detail.

The NIVIUK Gliders Team.

USER’S MANUAL

NIVIUK Gliders PEAK

This manual offers all the necessary information that will familiarize you with 
the main characteristics of your new paraglider. Although this manual informs 
you about your glider, it does not offer the instruction requirements necessary 
for you to be able to pilot this type of wing. Flying instruction can only be 
taught at a paragliding school recognised by the Flying Federation of your 
country.

Nevertheless we remind you that it is important that you carefully read all the 
contents of the manual for your new PEAK glider.
Severe injuries to the pilot can be the consequence of the misuse of
this equipment.
