Hook

A recreational, sporty and fun-to-fly wing.

In the creation of the HOOK, Raul Rodriguez, (the best acro pilot for over 10 years) has cascaded his experience and knowledge to Olivier Nef (world class designer). Together with the world beating Niviuk design team they gave birth to a paraglider, which until now we did not dare to imagine, this unique wing is the HOOK. The HOOK has scored and continues to score top mark in every review throughout the world and it has even been described as the Spitfire of the DHV 1-2 (EN B) class.

The HOOK is a wing, which offers perfectly balanced feedback, immediate reaction to the pilots inputs, the highest levels of safety and one of the highest performance and agility levels in its class. The HOOK allows the pilot to fly with comfort and confidence and expand the limits of their own ability to new and higher levels. With a performance and handling unmatched by many DHV 2 (EN C) paragliders and a level of safety unmatched by many DHV 1-2 (EN B) paragliders, the HOOK offers a unique and very different flying experience. 

 The HOOK offers
- Easy inflation and launch
–Total control during ground handling

- The highest performance in all aspects of flight
