Typhoon… the name is its mission, highest dynamic, speed and an absolutely pure flight pleasure.
Its extraordinary data (sink rate <1m/s, glide ratio >9, speed range 26-62km/h, etc.), its high dynamics, paired with a clear and direct handling, let you fly in a new dimension.
The perfect designed and modern wing belongs into experienced hands. We developed this storm for advanced, XC and competition pilots
Canopy
The French company “Porcher Marine”, which is part of the NCV GROUP, supplies the glider fabric. In the last two years Porcher Marine have been heavily involved in fabric development; creating new and more durable coatings which has led to a new generation of materials that came to be known as New Skytex.
The new coating is much more resistant to abrasion, humidity and is UV resistance.
We use Skytex 9017 and coating E77A (bilateral water base coating that impregnates the fibres, rather than just the surface) for the top surface. The under surface of the wing is made from the same fabric with an E38A coating. The internal ribs are made from Skytex 9017 and the E29A coating.
The fabric is manufactured using the “Rip Stop” weave structure, out of superpolyamid (PA 6.6) by the American firm DU PONT.
Lines
The lines on the Typhoon are of the highest quality and are supplied by the German firm EDELRID. These lines create high resistance from mechanical abrasion as well as a high degree of length stability.
Edelrid 8000 uncovered series of kevlar lines is used for Typhoon. Of course all the lines are spliced to avoid any aerodynamical drag.
Risers
The risers are made from 20 mm wide webbing, it is manufactured by our supplier MOUKA TIŠNOV. The suspension lines are connected to the risers by means of quick links (mailons); which come from the French supplier Mailon Rapide.
