PEAK 6 : RAISE THE BAR

Target

Cross-country

Exceed your limits whilst always enjoying your flights. Fly long distances whilst experiencing maximum comfort and quality of flight

Competition

Bring out your best. The Peak 6 is a two-liner designed to offer high performance, to satisfy the most experienced pilots and get great results in competitions.

Features

Accessible and fun flying

Based on the previous model, the Peak 6 offers surprising ease of handling in a wing of its classification. The incidence of the B risers has been optimised, making control inputs more precise and responsive, which improves glide, increases efficiency and comfort in flight.

Confidence at any speed

This is a very safe wing, given its classification. The high stability of the Peak 6 ensures safety and allows the experienced pilot to concentrate on the flight and to use the full speed range.

Top performance

Better performance and efficiency. The profile uses the movements of the air as a source of energy, attacks and scales the different air masses and takes advantage of inertia to improve glide and increase performance. Go faster - the Peak 6 reaches higher top speeds.

Efficiency and control

Improved efficiency when entering thermals and the wing climbs extremely well. Absolute pitch and roll stability (including at top speed). During glides you can perceive the movements of the air more easily and the glider’s feedback permits any lift to be used more efficiently.

Flybubble review

"The launch experience, especially considering its high D classification, was surprisingly smooth and well-behaved. Often, high D gliders can be a bit finicky during launch, but the Peak 6 defied this stereotype, making it remarkably easy and enjoyable for pilots in this category. Notably, not all high D gliders share this user-friendly quality, making the Peak 6 a standout choice for those seeking a top-performing wing that's also a joy to launch, even in less-than-ideal conditions.

Once in the air, the Peak 6 continues to impress with its exquisite handling, delivering sublime turns that are exceptionally well-executed. While I can't claim to have flown every high D glider in the class, the Peak 6's turning ability leaves a lasting impression. It's a surprise, given that many high D gliders, while powerful, can be challenging to handle, demanding constant attention and active piloting. The Peak 6 stands out by offering not only stellar performance but also an unexpectedly pleasant and comfortable flying experience.

Flying high D gliders typically puts pilots on edge, especially in choppy conditions. However, what truly surprised me about the Peak 6 was the level of comfort and confidence it instilled. Make no mistake, it is undeniably a high D glider with elevated demands on the pilot, especially in terms of speed. The glider is impressively solid, super fast, and establishes a realizable feeling that creates a strong connection between the pilot and the wing.

Handling pressure is another commendable feature of the Peak 6. The brakes, while relatively light, offer precise and direct feedback, contributing to the overall positive flying experience. Negotiating tricky thermals proved to be no challenge for this glider, as it allowed me to navigate the broken up thermals effectively, extracting the best lift and maximizing the conditions. In essence, the Peak 6 felt like a partner in optimizing the flying experience, earning it a resounding thumbs up.

For pilots in search of a high D-wing that not only delivers exceptional performance but also boasts a delightful launch and a comfortable flying experience, the Niviuk Peak 6 unquestionably stands at the forefront."

"Immediately after taking off, I could feel the high comfort under the Peak 6! This glider has perhaps the double comfort found on the Peak 5!  And more comfortable to fly than the Zeno1-2, Magus XC, Peak 3, Peak5, and Icepeak 6. I think the Peak 6 has the DNA of the Peak 4 and matches its comfort with an even more solid, homogenous structure. When flying it in strong air I felt that this whole structure didn’t lose its homogeneity and was kept as a block above my head. Even if the Artik-R stretches a bit and wobbles in heavy air, the Peak 6 felt more coherent! Of course, the pilot level is another step from the Artik-R but just to precise that solid feel. The glide at trim and accelerated is excellent, for the category, with a very taught leading edge even at full bar.  I could get 18-19 km/h over trim.  The B controls are quite a big step in usability over the Peak 5! I could control the glider with a moderate pull, while on bar. The pressure on the B steering is moderate and very usable. Forget about the Peak 5 controls and feel…The Peak 6 is a completely changed glider. 

After test flying the Peak 6, I think NIVIUK wanted to revive the Peak 4 success by creating a comfortable, easy, confidence-inspiring, EN-D 2 liner. I think pilots upgrading from the Artik 6 with 2 full seasons in strong air, could be a logical move toward an easy, but much more performant EN-D glider. "

Niviuk Technologies 

Improved lineset

The lines are made of a new material with a water-repellent coating (Magix Pro Dry), which makes it easier to untangle knots and simplifies line sorting before flying. 

Optimised internal structure

A complete redesign of the internal structure in order to achieve a more solid and compact glider. These improvements are based on the development and design of their Icepeak X-One racing wing.

Aerodynamic profile

New aerofoil allows for more efficiency and speed, while improving flight performance.

Enhanced load distribution

The internal distribution of the slots in the ribs has been redesigned to better distribute the loads and reduce the overall weight of the wing. In addition, the total number of cells has been changed to 80 (-4) to redistribute the attachment points to their most optimal position.

Nitinol rods in the profile

Based on Niviuk TNT technology, the profile features Nitinol rods to maintain the shape of the wing under all circumstances, even after very compact folding and packing. 

The perfect finish

The design, the application of Niviuk technologies and the quality of the assembly during manufacture make the wing much cleaner, without creases or vibrations and with perfect tensioning of the materials. As a result, the Peak 6 has a taut surface with drag reduced to a minimum.

New optimised arc

The glider has been redesigned to stabilise roll and make handling safer.

Ergo handles

The Peak 6 comes with Ergo handles that permit more efficient and comfortable piloting, and which allow efficient B-riser steering.
