Detailed description
"Rid'Air Team's Opinion: For us, the Hook 6 P is the benchmark for 'lightweight' progression wings. It achieves the feat of being even lighter and easier to inflate than the standard version, while offering surprising glide for its category. It's the ideal wing for pilots who want to progress in cross-country flying while having a light pack for their hike-and-fly adventures."
Niviuk Hook 6 P: Ultra-Light Progression
The Niviuk Hook 6 P (Lightweight) is the light version of the sixth generation of the renowned Hook. This EN-A+ / EN-B wing is designed to support pilots in their progression, from school graduation to their first major cross-country flights, with a major advantage: a weight reduction of up to 25% compared to the classic version.
Its take-off behavior is one of its strong points. Thanks to its lightweight structure and the use of Nitinol rods, the wing rises with perfect regularity, effortlessly and without overshooting, even in no wind. In flight, it offers great stability and exemplary pitch damping, allowing the pilot to remain calm and focus on analyzing the air mass.
Despite its lightness, the Hook 6 P makes no compromises on performance. Its optimized profile offers excellent glide and intuitive turning, allowing for precise thermal centering. It is equipped with unsheathed lines facilitating untangling and high-quality fabrics (Porcher Skytex) for maximum longevity despite its lightweight construction.
The Hook 6 P is an EN-B "Low" certified wing. It is very accessible, but its lightweight (Plume) construction requires particular care during folding and ground handling, especially on abrasive terrain, to preserve the fabric's lifespan.
