Apus RS Hike
SWING APUS RS HIKE, NYOS RS The APUS RS is an all terrain mini wing, designed to be a ‘universal tool’. On the ‘Hike’ version, there is Porcher Skytex 27 g/m² everywhere instead of the combination of 41 g and 34 g on the standard version. In size 16, for an all up weight of 55-100 kg, it is certified EN C. All the versions and sizes benefit from the RAST system. It’s the same with the new high-end EN B Nyos RS. Sizes L and XL of Nyos RS have been certified right now.
