Nemo XX is recommended as your first purchase after initial training, the more so if your school used it. There is still a lot of its capabilities you will be able to discover, while staying satisfied with its safety, performance and versatility in various forms of recreative flying. It will forgive you a lot of your mistakes and make you ready for further stages. It will let you spend many hours of stress-free winching , thermalling, cross-country and PPG flying.
Nemo XX is a certified fun paraglider of EN A class, with modern design, good performance and great safety. It is distinguished from earlier Nemo by better glide ratio, agility and even easier launch. It is dedicated for the beginners and recently trained pilots – it can be used for training, wincing and paramotoring.
The three row canopy with rigid rods (Dudek FlexiEdge technology) incorporates current experience won while designing and testing three- and two-row prototypes of high performance paragliders.
Inner reinforcements, structural rods and mini-ribs make sure that the aerofoil is precisely reproduced and stabilized in flight. Three-row rigging of reduced drag increases performance. Mini-ribs on the trailing edge make for slim canopy with minimal ballooning and improved airstream. All those solutions result in exceptional performance in its class, still fulfilling the harsh requirements of EN-A class safety (as so-called “upper A”).
When designing Nemo XX we put a lot of work into flight safety, effective steering, easy operation and attractive look of the paraglider. In a number of prototypes leading to final Nemo XX version we’ve tested several airfoil, shapes and curvatures of the canopy for their stability and resistance to turbulence in various flight configurations. Additionally, selected airfoil was examined and optimised with dedicated CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) software.
Advanced engineering merged with Piotr Dudek years of designer experience resulted in a paraglider of perfectly stabilized canopy, ideally suited to pilot’s expectations of this class.
