Skate - Speed Riding glider from Niviuk

 
Easy to handle in all situations, highly resistant to roll, a wide speed range and a unique profile provides the ability to glide parallel with the ground in all relief. With three risers and a trim system which allows easy and effective adjustments to the angle of attack the SKATE can be securely set to follow the inclination of the slope, so preventing any unwanted take off. The result of all these improvements will make the SKATE a new reference in the discipline of speed riding.

A new convertible harness/rucksack is also proposed with the SKATE. A new look with
more volume than our current speed riding harness, fixings for skis and pockets for
the quick folding bag (supplied) under the seat (for right or left handed pilots).

 
The Skate is available in 4 sizes:  8, 10, 12 and 14 m2. 
 
Available colours: One colour per size and only standard colours.
The special colour option is not available at this time.
