- The ultimate mountain machine (EN/LTF-C, EN-CCC)
The champion of the flyweights
Maximum performance with minimal weight – at just 3.4kg (XS) the TRITON 2 light is the ultimate flying machine for our X-Alps athletes. The wing is uncompromisingly light and distinguishes itself with its performance and an instinctive feeling for thermals.
The customised racing machine. The TRITON 2 light is an optimised performance wing developed by X-Alps athletes for X-Alps athletes. At 3.4 kilograms (XS) it is ultralight but also very tough: the lower sail and large parts of the upper sail are made from 27g cloth, the more vulnerable profile nose is made from durable 32g cloth.
Innovative and progressive. The TRITON 2 light is based on the TRITON 2, our serial performance wing. Its Needle-Eye Ribs permit a combination of little weight with a high degree of structural stability. Our Air Scoop means the wing is highly pressurised when accelerated. The accelerator travel has been extended on size XS wings (EN-CCC certification).
Dependable and powerful. Rough, alpine terrain is incompatible with complicated design concepts. In accordance with our philosophy of simplicity, only the profile nose is fitted with rods. The TRITON 2 light can be packed depending on personal preference – a concertina bag is not necessary. With a moderate aspect ratio of 6.4 the wing is predictable in flight.
Basic facts
The TRITON 2 LIGHT combines exceptional lightness with uncompromising performance.
- Size XS has been optimised for high speed performance (plus >20km/h)
- The TRITON 2 LIGHT is based on the TRITON 2, but many details have been markedly improved.
- Thinner lines made from Liros PPSL 191 and an optimised finish have resulted in a tangible performance increase in comparison with the TRITON 2.
- The risers are made from 12mm wide Aramid: it is simpler to handle and does not twist – making the wing safer overall.
The TRITON 2 light experience
Impressions
“The optimal package of performance, weight and handling is important to me as a Red Bull X-Alps athlete. The TRITON 2 light has it all. Its performance is breathtaking; at 3.5kg it is a flyweight and both in the air and on the ground it is easy to handle.”

When you buy the wing you get more than just the product.
Optimise your wing.
During the initial flights the lines are subjected to real loads for the first time. This leads to stretching and shrinking – regardless of which line material is used. During NOVA Trim Tuning2 our software analyses how out of trim the glider has become and then calculates the required correction values. Trim Tuning aids safety and increases your flying fun.
Fully comprehensive insurance.
After purchasing the wing and successfully registering it at myNOVA, you are provided with one year fully comprehensive insurance (60 euro excess3). You do the damage, we carry the cost. NOVA Protect means that you can concentrate on the important thing: the flying! If you break it, we fix it!
More than a check.
The NOVA Full Service is more than just a check. Just like the Trim Tuning, we analyse the line lengths and ensure that the wing is restored to the optimal profile alignment across the whole of the span. Additionally we give the wing a full health check. Our NOVA Full Service gives you confidence in your wing.
Three years without worry.
If your wing has undergone NOVA Trim Tuning, the date to the next check is extended from two years to three years. The two-year check becomes a three-year check. This allows you to have an extra year of carefree flying. Please note the maximum permitted flying hours in the manual.
Full four year warranty.
As standard, NOVA provides a three year, rather than a two year, guarantee on its paragliders. If your wing has undergone NOVA Trim Tuning and a NOVA Full Service, then we will extend the guarantee for a further year to four years. You get a good feeling flying a NOVA wing.
Everything available, anytime.
If you register your wing at myNOVA, it is added to our Quality Assurance Database. In the database – accessed through myNOVA – you can download all the key data about your wing. The database will also assist the person servicing your glider by getting information about your glider at the click of a button. Your glider will be more comprehensively checked.
1 The guarantee and service provision is limited, subject to conditions and not offered to the same extent in all countries. Detailed information is available in our guarantee conditions.
2 This service is included in the purchase price in selected countries. Please contact your dealer for more information.
3 This service covers damage incurred because of an accident while flying. Damage in other circumstances, personal injury, theft or other loss are excluded from this policy.
Speedbrake Riser
The NOVA Speedbrake Riser is the first three-liner riser which permits the glider to be accelerated as well as decelerated. It brings an end to pulling the C-lines, which killed performance.
We recommend the Speedbrake Riser for cross-country pilots. If you prefer relaxed recreational flying, hill soaring or frequent groundhandling we recommend the standard riser without the Speedbrake strap.
For an additional 60 euro (plus local rate VAT), we can offer the triton light 2 fitted with the Speedbrake Riser. This offer is only valid for new wing purchases which are not yet delivered to the customer.
The Speedbrake Riser comes ceramic rings instead of pulleys.
The NOVA Speedbrake Riser is the first 3-line riser ever made, that can decelerate without killing performance.
.
Please note: all Speedbrake Risers are made of 12 mm kevlar webbing. There’s no special light weight riser like it is used on the MENTOR 4 light or TRITON 2 light.
Delivery time: 2 – 4 weeks
