3-Liner | 49 Cells | Aspect Ratio: 5.17 | Weight: from 3.4 kg | EN A AONIC Light - "A" High-Light The AONIC Light is a genuine highlight for all aerial adventures. Whether ambitious beginner, hike & fly enthusiast or a relaxed cross-country pilot - the light version of the popular AONIC combines high performance and flying pleasure for all your flying needs. Toni Brügger proved the XC suitability of the AONIC with an FAI triangle of 247 km! Versatile companion. A manoeuvrable and safe recreational wing, the AONIC Light impresses with its wide variety of uses. The AONIC Light is the perfect introduction to paragliding for anyone who would like a little agility right from the start. Advanced pilots benefit from the performance potential of the high-end EN A glider, which can even keep up with higher-rated gliders in cross-country flying. Pilots who switch from a higher class to the AONIC Light will be pleasantly surprised by its performance and handling.EN A record. When they hear the words EN A, most pilots think of cumbersome training gliders with no cross-country potential. The AONIC Light is different - Swiss pilot Toni Brügger first flew an FAI triangle of 214 km in Ticino with the AONIC in March 2022 - a world record for EN A gliders! On the 10th of May 2022, he followed this up with 247.47 km from Riederalp and beat his record. Toni says: “The AONIC is nice when flying distance. It is very stable, with intuitive handling and it climbs well. Especially in strong and turbulent conditions, it is a safe and effective cross-country glider that even a more experienced pilot will enjoy.”Light in the air. The technically sophisticated all-rounder with 49 cells and an aspect ratio of 5.17 is wonderfully easy to fly and convincing with a smart lightweight design. Thanks to the high quality of the lightweight cloth, you don't have to worry about the durability of your wing. The weight of only 3.4 kg (size XXS) makes it easier to climb mountains and improves take-off and extreme flight behaviour. During inflation, the canopy rises reliably and the glider does not tend to overshoot. Due to its reduced mass, the wing does not tend to overshoot after a collapse. The high level of safety and the small pack size also make the AONIC Light the ideal companion when travelling.Uncomplicated flying fun. The minimalist lineset design not only reduces drag in flight but also makes it easier to sort the lines before launch. Relaxed pre-flight preparation is also made possible by the sheathed, colour-coded lines and the clear 12 mm wide Kevlar-reinforced risers. In the air, the AONIC Light lives up to its designation as a high-end EN A paraglider: agility, performance and high passive safety ensure a high fun factor. Ball-bearing speed-bar pulleys on the riser reduce the operating forces and underline the XC suitability of the AONIC Light.Maintain the overview. For maximum manageability, the risers have a series of markings: to avoid attaching the harness incorrectly, the left and right risers are colour-coded, which is continued on the carabiners and main attachment points of our harnesses. For ease during pre-flight preparations, we follow the PMA recommended the colour scheme for riser and line colours. To avoid confusion when initiating descent manoeuvres, the respective risers are labelled "Ears" and "B-Stall".A safe choice. Because you should take your AONIC Light on every adventure in a completely relaxed way, NOVA offers you a range of practical services, such as one-off protection against accidental damage thanks to NOVA Protect (valid in the first year after purchase and product registration) and a four-year warranty on the materials (after NOVA Trim Tuning and NOVA Full Service). Find out more about our comprehensive service package in the Service section and enjoy carefree flights.Pilot target groupThe AONIC Light (EN/LTF A) offers maximum speed, manoeuvrability and glide performance within the A class - without neglecting the high safety requirements of a paraglider suitable for instruction. In the context of instruction, the AONIC Light is suitable for student pilots with a good feel for the glider. For training, we recommend flying the AONIC Light in the middle of the weight range and experienced pilots can also take advantage of the upper part of the weight range.Technical DataMaterials Leading edge: Dominico 30D, 41 g/m² Top surface: Skytex 27 C2, 29 g/m² Lower surface: Skytex 27 C2, 29 g/m² Profile ribs (suspended): Porcher Skytex 32 Hard, 32 g/m² Profile ribs (unsuspended): Porcher Skytex 27 Hard, 27 g/m² Main lines: Liros PPSL 160 / TSL 140 Gallery lines: Edelrid U-8000 / DSL 70 Brake lines: DSL 70 Risers: Kevlar 12 mm Colours Scope of Delivery NOVA Stuff Sack NOVA Riser Bag NOVA Windsock Repair Kit User Manual NOVA 4 Years WARRANTY On Materials We guarantee your paraglider for an additional three years*, covering materials and workmanship. If your wing undergoes NOVA Trim Tuning and a NOVA Full Service by an authorised NOVA partner, the guarantee extends to four years*. If repair isn’t possible, we will deduct the current value when purchasing a new NOVA paraglider. NOVA 3 Years No Full Service Required If your wing receives NOVA Trim Tuning, the standard two-year service check extends to three years (from the date of purchase), as long as you stay within the flight hours specified in the manual. This lets you focus on what you love—flying! NOVA Trim Tuning Over time, glider lines stretch or shrink, affecting performance. Typically, A and B lines stretch while C lines shrink, making the wing slower and less agile. NOVA Trim Tuning (NTT), developed with instructor and mathematician Ralf Antz, restores optimal performance. After 15-20 flight hours, send your wing to us or an authorised partner for measurement and trimming. Wings with NTT qualify for the 3-Year No Check Required guarantee. NOVA Full Service Our NOVA Full Service is more than a routine check—it ensures your glider is in top condition. We assess porosity, line lengths, and trim using our advanced Quality Assurance Database (QAD). All measurements are recorded, allowing technicians to make precise adjustments. This system helps us refine our designs for better safety and performance. NOVA Quality Assurance Database Your glider’s history is digitally stored in our QAD. Registering at MyNOVA grants access to all service records, including Full Service logs and Trim Tuning data. This system also helps us monitor material durability and improve future designs. NOVA service centres use QAD to assess your wing before servicing, enhancing knowledge transfer for better safety.
