Nova Vortex polovan

An EN-C two-liner built for hike-and-fly XC, 3.1 kg in XXXS (55-75 kg), aimed at high-B pilots stepping up from something like the MENTOR 7. The B-control is direct: a few millimeters of input gives real directional change, and the rear risers hold enough pitch authority that you can rest your arms on long glides without braking the wing. Low aspect ratio keeps it forgiving, and it behaves like a 3-liner in stalls. Nitinol rods in the leading edge resist bending and pack down small, and it ships with the Concertina Bag Light. Risers are 7 mm Kevlar-reinforced webbing with carbon HAB-Handles that height-adjust to five levels, so you can match the position to your size and harness. B3 stall works as a descent technique, and normal big ears work too.
