Features in detail

Ready for take off.

It is important to close the ARTUS correctly so that you can get into the air quickly and safely. The diagram on the leg loops shows you how to correctly connect the coloured straps with the corresponding metal rods and rings. The colour coding for each side corresponds to the familiar scheme found on most NOVA paragliders, which prevents the possibility of incorrect attachment: red for left and green for right. The EASE Aerotec carabiners from Edelrid, specially developed for paragliding, guarantee minimum weight with maximum strength.

For step-by-step instructions, please refer to the manual or take a look at our tutorial.

Aerodynamic and individual. 

The seat position is adjusted using the back and shoulder straps for the best possible flying comfort. The length of the pod can be adjusted using three straps on each side. Markings facilitate symmetrical adjustment. The three-step speed-bar runs through low-friction rings and can be operated with little effort. The plastic footplate is very hard-wearing and protects the calves during launch.

Tip: to get the most out of the ARTUS, we recommend a more reclined flying position. The the bottom of the pod should be horizontal.

Space for gear. 

The ARTUS offers plenty of storage space thanks to its various pockets and compartments. The back compartment offers the most space. There is a zip pocket on the left and right side of the pod and there is also space under the seat. The detachable kangaroo pocket at chest height can be used to store small items such as a power bank or muesli bar. There are Velcro straps on the cockpit and shoulder straps to secure instruments. There are also channels for the drinking tube from the back compartment and for the pee tube on the outer shell.

Manual

Nova Artus Handbuch

We have enclosed a very detailed manual which contains everything you need to know about your flying equipment. Please study it before flying your gear for the first time.

ALUMINA+ Protector

ALUMINA+ Protector

The two-part ALUMINA+ hybrid back protector system extends along the thighs and back right up to the thoracic spine and provides extensive protection. It consists of PE foam and a very light tubular structure made of aluminium, which is also used in aviation. This combination of materials ensures very low weight and a small pack size. Not available anymore.

Technology


The ultimate in lightness.

Designed for hike & fly, climb & fly and vol biv, ultra-lightweight products are built to be as light and compact as possible. To achieve this, we use the lightest materials and technologies available - but never at the expense of safety! For the longest possible enjoyment of the product, we recommend particularly careful handling of the equipment.

Compact innovation. 

The protector ALUMINA+ consists of PE foam and a very light tubular structure made of aluminium, which is also used in aviation. This combination of materials ensures very low weight and a small pack size.

Always in sight.

Always within sight of both eyes and easy to deploy: front containers provide a high degree of safety – if only due to their visibility. The V-bridle built into the ARTUS runs along the side to the rear and allows the parachute to be suspended from the shoulders.

More comfort.

Harnesses with split leg loops use individual leg loops instead of a seat plate. The result is good manoeuvrability combined with pleasant damping and impressive smoothness during glides. Performance limiting roll is minimised.
