Aerodynamics, glide performance and precision for maximum performance.

The Rocket R is built on a next-generation structure directly derived from the Drifter 2, focused on high-speed stability. Its control geometry is designed to provide precise feedback while limiting unwanted roll movements during transitions. This stability allows the pilot to maintain a clean, efficient trajectory and fully exploit the glide performance of the wing, even in the active air masses encountered in competition.

The Rocket R cocoon features an advanced design with an automatic adjustment system using Nitinol, ensuring constant tension and a perfectly smooth profile. The "slim fit" seat provides full ergonomic support for the back and legs, reducing muscle fatigue during long-duration flights. This ergonomics is specifically tailored for high-level pilots flying CCC or EN-D wings, where drag reduction is critical.

In terms of equipment, the Rocket R integrates high-end technical solutions such as a dual rescue compartment and a 7-liter cockpit perfectly integrated into the airflow. The inflatable rear fairing and removable outer shell highlight a performance-oriented finish, allowing worn parts to be easily replaced. Every component is positioned to optimize in-flight ergonomics without altering the aerodynamic structure of the harness.

The Rocket R makes no compromises: it is designed for pilots seeking maximum glide performance and tactical efficiency. It is a technical harness built to optimize every kilometer and turn the wing’s potential into pure performance on the competition circuit.

Advanced engineering and premium finishes

The Rocket R takes a major step forward in aerodynamic optimization thanks to a structure entirely stabilized with Nitinol, ensuring a perfectly tensioned profile in all phases of flight. Its "slim fit" design, directly derived from Niviuk’s competition experience, provides precise body support and a direct connection with the wing — key elements for optimizing control and reducing fatigue during the longest distance flights.

This performance-driven approach is combined with a high-level technical integration. The harness features innovative solutions such as a perfectly streamlined 7-liter cockpit, a magnetic closure system for optimal sealing, and a dual rescue compartment. Every detail, from the removable outer shell to the optimized arm passages, reflects a premium finish designed to turn the Rocket R into a true extension of the pilot, combining technical efficiency and smooth usability.
