We have identified a potential issue that may affect some IKS 3000 units. As a precaution, all IKS 3000 units must be inspected before further use. In this video, we show you how to perform the safety check correctly. *SAFETY CHECK* ✔ Hold the inward-running side of the grey cord loop in one hand and the end of the black-covered section in the other. ✔ Pull the two sections in opposite directions, as indicated by the arrows in the image, applying a force of approximately 12 kg (120 N). ✔ Check whether the inward-running side of the grey cord loop moves in relation to the outer black-covered section. *Important* Make sure you pull directly on the inward-running side of the grey cord loop indicated in the video, not on the outer cord layer. Otherwise, the result of the safety check will not be valid. *RESULTS* If the inward-running side of the grey cord loop remains fixed and there is no movement: the IKS 3000 is functioning correctly, and no further action is required. If the inward-running side of the grey cord loop moves or slips: stop using the IKS 3000 and replace it immediately. In affected units, this movement occurs easily when the specified force is applied. Please send a photograph of the affected unit, together with your contact details, to orders@niviuk.com. Our team will assess the case and arrange a replacement IKS 3000.

The CHILI6 isn’t a reinvention, it’s an evolution. Same DNA, a completely new way of building it. Which CHILI generation did you start on? #skywalkparagliders #CHILI6 #purepassionforflying

The CHILI6’s new profile increases the pitch moment coefficient, meaning if your angle of attack drops, the wing naturally wants to pitch up instead of collapsing. Tag a pilot who needs to see this 🪂

The CHILI6 features a dedicated riser system: a pulley connects the C- and B-level, and thanks to the 2.5-line concept and efficient profile design, it delivers particularly low operating forces. The result: relaxed, fatigue-free piloting during accelerated flight, with steering precision that feels almost like a 2-liner — without the added line drag. In addition, a second pulley system sits between the A- and B-level, designed specifically for the controlled simulation of collapses during SIV training. During normal flight, this system has no effect whatsoever. MEASURING LINE LENGTH To ensure accurate measurement results, this second system must be blocked before measuring your lines: fully tension the A-level, then insert a pin through the Low Friction Ring to lock the pulley system in place. Once secured, line measurements can be carried out as usual. #skywalkparagliders #CHILI6 #purepassionforflying
The TAU is an ADVANCE first C class 2-liner for 2026. In this video, I am describing the characteristics of the TAU while flying it. You can also see the performance comparison with another C-class model.
Familiar DNA. New Technology. Meet Tom from the skywalk design team as he takes you deep inside the development of the CHILI6. The wing that keeps everything you loved about the CHILI5, and adds the margin you need to fly relaxed in today's more demanding, ever-changing conditions. The goal was never to build a faster CHILI5. It was to build a wing that helps you make better decisions, fly more relaxed, and use 100% of its potential – for real, in real conditions. In this Tech Talk, Tom breaks down what changed under the hood: a new R&D team, extensive numerical simulation, and dozens of virtual prototypes behind every physical one. Same proven concepts, but a completely reworked profile built around increased pitch stability, giving you those crucial extra seconds to react before a collapse ever happens. You'll also get the full picture on the CHILI6's 2.5-liner construction and SPEED CONTROL system for 2-liner-like glide and steering, the new Winglets for safer spiral behavior and better roll stability, and the material choices behind a wing that's about 5% faster across all speeds while staying more accessible. Plus: takeoff technique, SIV behavior, and the right way to handle collapses, big ears, and spirals on the CHILI6. Accessible performance – so you can get more from every flight.

In this episode British hang gliding pilot Jeremy Soper shares his journey from overcoming a fear of heights to becoming a record-breaking pilot and innovative robotics entrepreneur. We explore the future of AI in physical labor, using robots to weed instead of using pesticides, the thrill of extreme flying and chasing distance around the world, including a midnight flight where the date changed, a personal call-out to other hang gliding pilots who are losing the records race to paragliders, and an optimistic view of the future of AI.
2026 PWC Gemona, Italy - Task 7 The final task of the Paragliding World Cup in Gemona, Italy, delivered a spectacular finish to an exciting week of racing. With thunderstorms forecast later in the day and uncertainty in the morning conditions, the organisation moved quickly, sending pilots to launch around 11:00 a.m. as the sky began to clear. A 70 km task was set, beginning with a challenging leg into the wind before leading pilots through a series of zigzagging turnpoints back across the mountains. Once conditions switched on, the race developed into one of the fastest of the competition. Strong climbs and efficient ridge lines allowed the lead gaggle to maintain an impressive pace throughout the course. Task winner Ferdinand Vogel described the conditions as exceptional, with thermals reaching up to 6 m/s on the return to the ridge. Combined with efficient transitions, the powerful lift enabled the leaders to complete the entire 70 km course in just 1 hour and 30 minutes, averaging nearly 47 km/h over the optimized task. Ferdinand Vogel secured the final task victory with an outstanding performance, while Daphnée Ieropoli once again claimed the women's win. With seven tasks completed, the Paragliding World Cup in Gemona came to a close with the following overall standings: Overall Individual 🥇 Baptiste Lambert 🥈 Martin Jovanovski 🥉 Roger Aeschbacher Overall Women 🥇 Alexia Fischer 🥈 Elisa Deutschmann 🥉 Violeta Jiménez After a week that delivered everything from rain-shortened races to lightning-fast ridge runs, Gemona once again proved why it is one of the most exciting venues on the World Cup calendar, rewarding pilots who combined speed, patience and tactical decision-making throughout the competition. 00:00:00 Waiting for the start at cloudbase 00:07:39 Start of speed section 00:14:47 Nice thermal on the way to TP1 00:18:01 Full speed time 00:20:10 Weak thermal 00:23:42 TP1 00:26:20 TP2 00:27:41 Lifty lines towards the flats 00:29:21 Hesitation 00:32:41 Taking our time in average thermals 00:33:43 Pilots pushed low in front and found a strong core 00:35:08 Nice thermal over the flats 00:42:41 Going for the next turnpoint after gaining 1000m+ 00:43:26 TP3 00:46:23 Small relay before going back to the hills 00:49:16 TP4 00:51:17 Last thermal before going to the factory 00:53:07 Going to the factory 01:00:39 Not as much margin as expected 01:03:17 Pushing low over the factory 01:05:44 TP5 01:08:37 Going for final glide 01:13:11 End of speed section 01:13:43 Goal 01:14:32 Landing In memory of Rémi Bourdelle.
he world of flying has changed. Has your wing kept up? This is the story behind the CHILI6 Watch the full journey - link in bio 🎥 @arkadiusz_kusalewicz #skywalkparagliders #CHILI6 #purepassionforflying
The world of flying has changed. Weather windows are shorter, the air is more dynamic, and XC pilots ask more of their gear than ever before. The high-B class can't just chase bigger numbers anymore, it has to deliver real performance without adding to the pilot's workload. That's the reality the CHILI6 was built to answer. Familiar CHILI DNA met a completely new way of building. Ideas became simulations, prototypes, flight tests. Progress came through iteration, not certainty, including the moments that sent the team back to the drawing board. What stayed constant wasn't a performance target, it was responsibility: understanding what pilots actually need before chasing numbers. The CHILI6 isn't the end of that process. It's proof that the process itself is the product. This isn't the finish line. The journey continues.
