Niviuk Arrow 2 paragliding harness

A cocoon harness designed for cross-country pilots

The Arrow 2 has been developed for pilots who want to make the most of cross-country flying and cover long distances in comfort and with confidence. Its optimised aerodynamic fairing, stability and ergonomics help maintain a comfortable position for several hours in the air while supporting performance during transitions.

It is also aimed at pilots looking to take their first steps into competition or participate in intermediate-level events. Versatile, stable and precise, the Arrow 2 is designed to handle long flying days as well as first competition tasks with equipment created to combine performance, comfort and safety.

Wraparound comfort for long hours in the air

The Arrow 2 chassis has been completely redesigned to better adapt to the pilot’s body shape. Its structure wraps around and supports the body while retaining greater flexibility in the areas that need to move with the pilot.

An integrated foam layer above the seat provides softer and more even contact while improving support for the legs, hips and back. In the upper part of the backrest, a padded element provides additional support for the upper back. The overall design promotes a more natural and comfortable position, which is especially valuable during long-duration flights.

Greater stability and precise handling

The new geometry and triangulation of the Arrow 2 provide greater stability. They absorb more unwanted movement and help maintain balanced behaviour both in glide and in turbulent conditions.

The fairing has also been reworked. Longer and higher, its aerodynamic profile integrates the pilot’s head more effectively into the overall shape of the harness in order to reduce drag and improve stability around the yaw axis.

Despite this increased stability, the Arrow 2 retains precise and intuitive weight-shift handling. Information from the air mass is transmitted in a subtle and progressive way, allowing the pilot to better interpret the wing’s movements and adapt their handling efficiently.

One or two reserve parachutes depending on your configuration

The Arrow 2 features two integrated reserve parachute compartments, positioned on either side of the harness. The pilot can therefore choose to fly with two reserves or install only one, on either the right or left side depending on preference.

Both compartments are designed to allow simple and direct deployment. An internal compression system adjusts their volume to the size of the reserve parachute in order to keep it securely in place. The harness is also supplied with the specific deployment containers required for installation.

A lightweight and compact inflatable protector

The Arrow 2 comes as standard with a new generation inflatable protector. Weighing only 185 g and taking up very little space when deflated, it offers substantial impact absorption capacity, with a stated maximum value of 32.5 G.

It is inflated using a small 55 g portable electric pump, supplied with the harness. After use, the pump has its own dedicated compartment in the rear pocket for easy storage.

For pilots who prefer a more traditional solution, an optional foam protector is also available. In addition, an 8 cm thick foam back protector covers the back area to provide an extra layer of cushioning and enhance the feeling of protection.
