Additionally
TWICE TE
size S is homologated for single flying.
Canopy
The canopy of the
TWICE TE
is made of synthetic fabric with different strengths
where a reinforced thread-net is woven in, which stops the fabric from further
tearing and is increasing the firmness at the seams and has sticks made of
NITINOL for an optimized geometry of the canopy.
The coating makes the fabric water-repellent, UV-stabile and air-impermeable.
Between the single groups of main lines are taut ribbons sewn in, which are
regulating the tension of the sail.
On the entry- and trailing-edge of the canopy a special ribbon with low elongation
is sewn in, which offers cunning, by our design-software calculated tension-
distribution along the canopy.
Lines
The end control of all line lengths is documented for all paragliders produced by
ICARO paragliders. The complete geometry of the lines and the lengths is shown
on the single line plan, which you find in the annex of the manual.
