Instead of, \"Spaghetti-straps\" Nova use new aerodynamically slim risers, whose design was based on the Speedbrake Riser. These ensure optimal C-steering and even at the launch lie comfortably in the hand. This means the MENTOR 6 Light is easy to inflate and the weight-optimised canopy climbs even more easily than the normal version.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eInner Values\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat makes the MENTOR 6 Light so special is the increased accelerated glide, smooth trailing edge, new risers, durable but lightweight cloth, aerodynamically optimised 3D-shaped seams and intuitive handling with less brake pressure. Nova decided not to place any limitations on Nova ambition and have added many detailed solutions which are completely new to the EN B class. A sport intermediate for cross-country and fun flying, the MENTOR 6 Light will help you to reach your goals faster – especially when accelerated.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSmart details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOften it is the small changes which have a big impact on the satisfaction as Nova have with a paraglider. On the MENTOR 6 Light Nova used internal mini-rib seams and improved cloth to ensure the wing is more resilient and durable when it is in contact with the ground.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAnother added bonus is the Ronstan ball bearing pulleys on the speed-system, which reduce the effort when accelerating. Additionally, the differentiated A3 riser transmission ensures an optimised wing twist in accelerated flight which makes the wing more stable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eA typical Mentor\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhich means that you can expect exactly what the name MENTOR traditionally promises from Nova's new glider: best performance in the EN B class. An experienced pilot will soon realise that the MENTOR 6 Light gives useful feedback about what is happening with the wing in flight and at the same time leaves enough room for manoeuvre to actively fly the glider‘s great potential. Nova's new ergonomic brake handles make this even more comfortable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat is new:\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eZig-Zag 3D-Shaping\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMini-Rib Vector Tape\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDouble-B splits\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInternal mini-rib seams\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNew risers new brake handles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eZig-Zag 3D-Shaping\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs well as the double 3D-shaped seams, there is an additional diagonal 3D-shaped seam on every cell. This forms a striking zig-zag pattern. This seam doesn’t run in the direction of the spanwise force.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis means the seam runs more cleanly and is more aerodynamically advantageous. This feature reduces creases on the leading edge.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMini-Rib Vector Tape\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMini-ribs increase the number of cells in the rear wing area and thus provide an aerodynamically more favourable trailing edge. In the MENTOR 6, there is an additional vector tape traversing through a hole in each mini-rib. This tape reduces the crease that is created when braking. In this way, both the climb rate and handling are improved. Additionally, there is a brake gathering system on the trailing edge. This means that the MENTOR 6 has a clean, smooth trailing edge even when the brake is applied.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDouble-B splits\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSimilar to the double-A splits in two-liners, the double-B splits allow for better load distribution in the chord direction. This means more stability and fewer creases between the individual line areas.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eLittle weight \u0026amp; packing volume\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe MENTOR 6 Light mainly differentiates itself from the MENTOR 6 in terms of weight. Nova chose weight-optimised Skytex 27 cloth on the upper and lower surface. Nice to know: Nova offers the same guarantee for this cloth as Nova does for their regular sail cloths. Why? It is very important to us that you can enjoy your NOVA wing for a long time. Despite its lightweight design, Nova uses the most durable materials possible and on the wing nose, Nova has additionally used robust 30D cloth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eNew Risers\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe MENTOR 6 Light risers are a redesign of the Speedbrake Riser. They ensure that the B-line area is also shortened when the C-line area is pulled during accelerated flight. The advantage is that when using C-steering, there is no performance-limiting crease between the B-line and C-line areas, which is otherwise typical in three-liners. The MENTOR 6 Light is delivered with these new risers, so there is no need to additionally install the Speedbrake Risers. The new riser is practical and fits comfortably in your hand, whether you are ground handling or preparing to launch.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eErgonomic brake handles\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNova has designed new brake handles, which feature on the MENTOR 6 Light. They have an ergonomic shape and are comfortable to use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSimply honest\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe MENTOR 6 Light’s performance is easily accessible and is therefore suitable for local soaring as well as being perfect for ambitious FAI triangles, hike \u0026amp; fly and vol biv. In strong thermals, it convinces with its relaxed and comfortable flying characteristics and, for its class, a very high level of passive safety (flat aspect ratio: 5.43). Especially for pilots who like to climb mountains on foot, the combined low weight and small packing size makes the MENTOR 6 Light an all-rounder: light on the back and as enthusiastic about going XC as you are.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eMaterials\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLeading edge: Dominico 30D, 41 g\/m2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTop surface: Skytex 27 C2, 29 g\/m2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLower surface: Skytex 27 C1, 27 g\/m2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProfile ribs: Porcher Skytex 32 Hard, 32 g\/m2 (suspended)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProfile ribs: Porcher Skytex 27 Hard, 27 g\/m2 (unsuspended)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMain lines: Liros PPSL 191 \/ U-8000 120\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGallery lines: Edelrid U-8000 \/ PPSLS 65\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrake lines:7850-240 \/ U-8000\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRisers: Kevlar 12mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eNova service info \u0026amp; FAQ\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRead \u003ca href=\"http:\/\/flybubble.com\/blog\/nova-service-info-faqs\/\" title=\"Nova service info \u0026amp; FAQ\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eNova service info and answers to FAQ\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eDownloads\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0914\/2973\/2734\/files\/ProduktpresentationMENTOR6LightEN_Final.pdf\" title=\"Presentation\" target=\"_blank\"\u003ePresentation\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0914\/2973\/2734\/files\/NovaMentor6LightLineplan.pdf\" title=\"Line Plan\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eLine Plan\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0914\/2973\/2734\/files\/NovaMentor6LightManual.pdf\" title=\"Manual\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eManual\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Nova","offers":[{"title":"XXS \/ Custom Colour","offer_id":56665260261758,"sku":"NOVA-MENTOR6LIGHT-XXS-CC","price":3494.17,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"XXS \/ Red","offer_id":56665260294526,"sku":"NOVA-MENTOR6LIGHT-XXS-RED","price":3257.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"XXS \/ Lime","offer_id":56665260327294,"sku":"NOVA-MENTOR6LIGHT-XXS-LIME","price":3257.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"XXS \/ Blue","offer_id":56665260360062,"sku":"NOVA-MENTOR6LIGHT-XXS-BLUE","price":3257.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"XS \/ Lime","offer_id":56665260392830,"sku":"NOVA-MENTOR6LIGHT-XS-LIME","price":3257.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"XS \/ Blue","offer_id":56665260425598,"sku":"NOVA-MENTOR6LIGHT-XS-BLUE","price":3257.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"XS \/ Custom Colour","offer_id":56665260458366,"sku":"NOVA-MENTOR6LIGHT-XS-CC","price":3494.17,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"XS \/ Red","offer_id":56665260491134,"sku":"NOVA-MENTOR6LIGHT-XS-RED","price":3257.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"S \/ Red","offer_id":56665260523902,"sku":"NOVA-MENTOR6LIGHT-S-RED","price":3257.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"S \/ Lime","offer_id":56665260556670,"sku":"NOVA-MENTOR6LIGHT-S-LIME","price":3257.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"S \/ Blue","offer_id":56665260589438,"sku":"NOVA-MENTOR6LIGHT-S-BLUE","price":3257.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"S \/ Custom Colour","offer_id":56665260622206,"sku":"NOVA-MENTOR6LIGHT-S-CC","price":3494.17,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"M \/ Custom Colour","offer_id":56665260654974,"sku":"NOVA-MENTOR6LIGHT-M-CC","price":3494.17,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"M \/ Red","offer_id":56665260687742,"sku":"NOVA-MENTOR6LIGHT-M-RED","price":3257.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"M \/ Lime","offer_id":56665260720510,"sku":"NOVA-MENTOR6LIGHT-M-LIME","price":3257.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"M \/ Blue","offer_id":56665260753278,"sku":"NOVA-MENTOR6LIGHT-M-BLUE","price":3257.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0914\/2973\/2734\/files\/nova-mentor6light-01.jpg?v=1764779519","url":"https:\/\/flybubble.com\/products\/nova-mentor-6-light","provider":"Flybubble","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
