The Emergency Parachute: An Essential Element
For many pilots, the emergency parachute is an essential and mandatory part of their flight equipment. Choosing one is not trivial.
Thanks to our collaboration with Vital Parachutes - a leading brand in the design and manufacture of parachutes - the Octagon 2 is one of the most advanced and safest parachutes on the market due to its innovative and distinctive octagonal design. The latest innovations to keep the best chances of saving the pilot...
Total Safety
The Octagon 2 offers maximum safety and reliability in an emergency situation, thanks to the innovative octagonal design that elevates its performance to the highest level. With the Octagon 2, innovation and technology enhance your safety.
The Guarantee of Flying with the Best Equipment
The second version of the Niviuk emergency parachute offers excellent pendular stability and a very low descent speed, ensuring the return to the ground is as gentle as possible.
All the Advantages of the Niviuk Octagon 2:
Available in six sizes: 80 (S), 100 (M), 120 (L), 140 (XL), 170 (XXL), and 215 (tandem).
An Unmatched Innovative Design
The revolutionary octagonal design offers the best emergency solution for the pilot: a smooth and controlled descent with great stability. Its unique shape ensures rapid deployment and minimizes the risk of pilot injury. Moreover, the Octagon 2 is very lightweight, easy to integrate into a container, and compact.
Direct Descent Without Oscillation
The octagonal design implements an ingenious stabilization system, resulting in an oscillation rate between 0 and 5º - well below the current average rate of 10 to 15º. With such minimal oscillation, the pilot avoids the pendular effect during descent, reducing the risk of accelerating the fall. The Octagon 2 is undoubtedly one of the most stable parachutes in the world.
A Gentler Return to the Ground
The return to the ground is the most critical moment. The octagonal design of the Octagon 2, its carefully crafted aerodynamic surface, the reduction of the pendular effect, the minimization of the mirror effect when the paraglider is still open, and an effective braking system give the Octagon 2 an excellent descent rate of only 4.8 m/s, significantly limiting the impact upon landing.
Easy Packing with Packing Loops
Packing is easy and quick. The Octagon 2 features a packing process based on the integration and use of packing loops, a system that ensures good ergonomics and real efficiency when packing the parachute after use or regularly for ventilation and elimination of static electricity.
