Titanium Technology (TNT) - a revolutionary technique using titanium. For the construction process of the KOYOT 4 we use the same criteria, Using Nitinol in the internal construction provides a more uniform profile quality controls and manufacturing processes as in the rest of our range.
Identify, and if necessary untangle, the A, B, C and D-lines, the brake lines and corresponding risers. Make The KOYOT 4 is delivered with a series of accessories that will greatly sure that there are no knots.
Using full speed-bar, the wing will fly at maximum speed, but the glide will be adversely affected. The KOYOT 4 can be flown with all current harness types. We recommend setting the chest strap to the distance specified in the certification report - •Released speed-bar: the A, B, C and -risers are aligned.

If the wind permits, we recommend a reverse launch, as this allows a better visual inspection of the wing during inflation. In “strong” winds, the At Niviuk we have designed the NKare Bag, a bag designed to assist you KOYOT 4 is especially easy to control using this launch technique. Winds with rapid packing which helps maintain the integrity of the leading edge of 25 to 30 km/h are considered strong for paragliding.
In spite of the KOYOT 4’s profile stability, strong turbulent air may cause the wing to collapse asymmetrically, especially if you do not fly actively The KOYOT 4 has an excellent profile to deal with incidents; it is very and prevent the collapse. In this case the glider conveys a loss of stable in all conditions and has a high degree of passive safety, even in pressure through the brake lines and the harness.

It could only happen if you are flying at a very low air speed, whilst over- steering or performing dangerous manoeuvres in turbulent air.
