Niviuk unveils the Niviuk Rocket R<\/strong>, its new offering for the competition elite. After months of development, the manufacturer says the harness was designed using rigorous computational fluid dynamics (CFD) analysis to minimise parasitic drag. The aim is clear: to transfer the brand\u2019s competition experience into an aerodynamic profile of maximum efficiency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Niviuk Rocket R architecture focused on high performance<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

According to the manufacturer, the chassis of the Niviuk Rocket R<\/strong> is a direct evolution of the architecture used in the Drifter 2, redesigned to offer a more honest connection with the air mass. The designers say the new structural geometry ensures a progressive response, essential for maintaining control and stability on technical tasks where every second counts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Niviuk Rocket R specifications and materials<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The structure of the Niviuk Rocket R<\/strong> uses materials chosen to optimise weight without compromising the structural integrity needed for high-performance flying. The team highlights that the harness is available in three sizes (S, M, L), with a total weight \u2014 including protector and accessories \u2014 of around 7.5 kg in size M, a competitive figure for a harness in this segment.<\/p>\n\n\n
