Care should be taken when modifying the brake line length: in the
factory, the brake line is set so there is 10 to 15 centimetres free play.
This is essential for two reasons:
• If the speed system is engaged, the brake line travel is reduced. A brake
line modified to achieve shorter travel would mean that the wing would
be automatically braked when accelerated. Firstly, this would reduce
the effectiveness of the speed system and secondly this could
induce a stall.
• The free play of the brake has an effect on extreme flight incidents.
If the brake line length is modified, this can influence the reaction of
the glider.
Suitable harnesses
Your paraglider is certified for use with a harness classified as
GH (without cross-bracing). This group contains nearly all current-
ly available harnesses. The certification sticker on your harness
provides information on its classification.
Some harnesses allow particularly effective weight-shift, but at the
same time turbulence is directly fed back to the pilot. Other harnesses
are more damped and therefore more comfortable – but the disadvan-
tage is that they are less agile. Every pilot must decide for themselves
which set-up is suitable for him/herself.
For hike & fly, we recommend flying the DOUBLESKIN in combination
with the NOVA MONTIS harness. On the one hand the two products
are perfectly matched; on the other, combining the MONTIS with the
INVERTO gives you an innovative airbag reversible harness with a high
degree of passive safety at only 1.3 kg total weight.
The choice of
harness has a
major influence
on the flying
characteristics of
your paraglider.
On receiving your paraglider
Initial flight
Before sale, every NOVA wing is checked and flown by a NOVA dealer.
The name of the pilot and date of this first flight must written on the
paraglider’s information label. Generally this will be situated in the
centre cell (at the profile rib).
Registration
In order to take advantage of the full guarantee and services, for
example
NOVA Protect,
you must register the paraglider at our web
site: my.nova.eu ↗
Accessories included
Your DOUBLESKIN is delivered with an Ultralight Compression Bag 22L,
riser bag, holding pins, a »Simpleflag« windsock, manual, self-adhesive
repair tape and stickers.
Glider modification
At delivery, the specifications of a new paraglider conform to those
used during the certification process. Any user modification (for
example, change of the line length, modification of the riser) means the
glider no longer conforms to its certification. We recommend consulting
NOVA before any modification.
This registration
must be completed
within 14 days of
purchase (invoice
date).
The MONTIS is a
mountaineering har-
ness which weighs
approximately 300
grams. Combined
with the INVERTO it
offers a high degree
of passive safety.
