3-Liner | Cells: 35 | Aspect Ratio: 4.90 | Weight: from 2.41 kg | EN A DOUBLESKIN 2 – Ultra-light utility The DOUBLESKIN 2 (EN/LTF A) can be many things – depending on its size, it can be a dynamic miniwing, a relaxed hike & fly wing, it can always be with you when travelling, and a reliable thermal buddy. One thing is always true: it is ultra-light and super safe. More sizes to suit every taste. With four sizes, the DOUBLESKIN 2 covers a total weight range of 55 to 120 kg and is EN A certified. The glider has a compact pack size and the smallest size (16) weighs just 2.41 kg. There is a suitable size for every requirement you have from your mountain paraglider. Another advantage of the DOUBLESKIN 2 is, with appropriate wing loading, it is ideal for training. This means you can enjoy the benefits of a safe, light wing from the very first flight. The different applications are shown in the diagram below. Tip: if you are looking for a smaller, livelier mountain wing one or two sizes smaller, then take a look at the BANTAM 2 (EN D) in sizes 14 and 12. Reliable companion. Thanks to a new airfoil and a A-lines that has been set further back, the DOUBLESKIN 2 is extremely collapse resistant. Glide performance and stability have been increased with an aspect ratio of 4.9 and it features a more complex structure: in comparison to its predecessor, diagonal ribs and more vector tapes are used. The compact wing remains stable even in accelerated flight and glides efficiently through unstable air. The direct handling enables effortless turning in tight thermals. In turbulent conditions, the high damping keeps everything smooth and prevents unwanted roll movements. Flexible and relaxed at take-off. The clear and twist-resistant 7 mm wide Kevlar risers of the DOUBLESKIN 2 make launch preparation easier – from the very first flights to launches in challenging alpine terrain. The lines are short and their sheaths are colour-coded, which simplifies line sorting and increases durability. The launch behaviour of the DOUBLESKIN 2 is straightforward in a wide range of conditions and with different techniques. The pilot does not have to adapt to the wing, the wing adapts to the pilot. Take off weight RELAXED: stress-free first flights (suitable for training THERMALS: efficient turning, even in weak thermals DYNAMIC: increased speed and agility Ultra-lightweight The ultimate in lightness. Designed for hike and fly, climb and fly, and vol biv, ultra-lightweight products are built to be as light and compact as possible. To achieve this, we use the lightest materials and technologies available—but never at the expense of safety! For the longest possible enjoyment of the product, we recommend particularly careful handling of the equipment. Several aspects of the DOUBLESKIN 2 have been optimised in this respect, for example, more cells and a more complex internal structure ensure better performance, stability and more precise handling. The DOUBLESKIN 2 uses maillons (instead of soft links) for the riser. This makes handling easier when changing lines and trimming. Compared to its predecessor, the DOUBLESKIN 2 weighs around 250 g more due to these optimisations. Target Group The DOUBLESKIN 2 (EN/LTF A) is aimed at pilots who appreciate a safe and uncomplicated lightweight glider with smooth handling and a small pack size. Thanks to its suitability for training, the DOUBLESKIN 2 offers a great deal of confidence and flying fun from the very first flight. The classic application is hike & fly in all its facets. Depending on the wing loading and choice of size, the DOUBLESKIN 2 can also be used for relaxed thermalling. In size 16, with a high wing loading, the DOUBLESKIN 2 can even be flown as an agile ultra-light miniwing – it is certified as EN B in the extended weight range of 80 to 95 kg.

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. NOVA Registration & Query Register your wing under the MyNOVA tab on the NOVA website to activate extended warranties and guarantees. You can book the service here. The lead time for the service is 3 months. Turnaround for the service work is 1-2 weeks. https://forms.gle/EskshqFdwcvPDB7q8 More details on the manufacturer's website under the Service tab: NOVA You have to have the training and a licence to fly a paraglider. Check with your instructor if you are buying your first paraglider.
