TECHNOLOGIEN
3DL
3D Leading Edge
3DL technology is an adjustment of the fabric at the leading edge of the wing to control the ballooning and the creases that are generated by the curvature in this area. The leading edge is then divided into sub-panels which are sewn into each of the cells at the front of the wing. As a result, the leading edge of the wing is more evenly tensioned, which benefits the wing in performance and durability.
3DP
3D Pattern Cut Optimization
This technology seeks to implement the best orientation of the cloth on each panel according to its location on the leading edge. If the cloth pattern is correctly aligned with the load axes, the cloth suffers less deformation flight after flight, so the leading edge keeps its shape better and maintains its durability over time.
DRS
Drag Reduction Structure
With the application of the DRS, the airflow at the trailing edge is directed more progressively along the adverse pressure gradient with the aim of reducing the aerodynamic drag produced in this area. This increases performance without compromising safety or control of the wing.
ELS
Ear Lock System
On a solo glider when the pilot has pulled big ears, they can only fly using weight-shift. On a tandem paraglider, although with the help of the passenger it is possible to achieve some control, in most cases this is insufficient when it is really needed. This is why Niviuk developed the ELS.
RAM
RAM Air Intake
The Ram Air Intake system is characterised by the arrangement of the air inlets, to ensure optimal maintenance of internal pressure across the the whole range of angles of attack.
SLE
Structured Leading Edge
The SLE is a rigid structure located at the leading edge of the wing that eliminates the need for old-fashioned mylar reinforcements in this area, thus reducing the weight and increasing the durability of the wing. The leading edge will also have better turbulence absorbing qualities.
TNT
Titanium Technology
Nitinol is a combination of 50% nickel and 50% titanium. This technology provides three outstanding benefits that increase the performance of the wing, compared to plastic rods.

PILOTEN
“It always conveys the feeling of safety, allowing you to play and do any acrobatic manouvre.”
Jérémy Péclard
“El Niviuk Takoo 4 planea mejor, es más rápido y tiene más estabilidad que su versión anterior. Lleva el concepto de performance a lo más alto del mercado y, sobre todo, presenta un impresionante compromiso entre rendimiento y comodidad.”
Philippe Lami
“Después de volar horas con el Takoo 4, pese a que el Takoo 3 me parecía excelente, la mejora es clara: más eficiente, menos frenado y, por lo tanto, menos esfuerzo y planeo exquisito.”
Free Aero Magazine
“Easy to inflate, it always feels stable and the acceleration and take-off are without equal!”
Jean Gabriel Thillard
“Nitinol provides a big advantage when packing and increases the longevity of the wing.”
Nico Treins
“You have an immediate sense of manoeuvrability and performance in one versatile and impressive wing.”
Steph Chetoux
“The leading edge performs incredibly well in the thermals, providing a very pleasant feel.”
