Description
FLY LIKE NEVER BEFORE, PLAY LIKE ALWAYS
The Jester is Niviuks first parakite. Designed utilising on our experience with paragliders and developing kite wings for third parties, it offers a radically fun flying experience. It combines speed, agility and control for dynamic descents and proximity flying.
Fast, precise and playful. Piloting through the risers allows you to automatically adjust the wing's angle of attack, keeping it stable even at top speed. The Jester invites you to discover a new way to play with the wind.
Parakite
The Jester breaks all the old rules: it is a parakite designed to experience playful flying, but requiring an active piloting attitude. An immersive, technical and incredibly fun experience. Fly close to the ground, adjusting your altitude precisely, but always in full control.
