The APCO NRG Pro II is the ultimate answer to the fast growing, challenging segment of purpose built wings designed for professional slalom racing.

NRG Pro II is a complete redesign of the previous NRG - and is now a faster, more aggressive wing with pylon racing performance and spirit!

The pylon racing turning sequence of:
» :: FULL SPEED BAR TO THE PYLON » RELEASE SPEED BAR » TIGHT TURN » FULL SPEED BAR TO NEXT PYLON :: »
has been perfected to a point where it is only the pilot who can limit the wing and never the opposite!

HIT VALVES® - A highly stable, full reflex profile with our HIT valves incorporated, allows pushing this wing beyond any familiar boundaries.

OAA® system - incorporated into NRG Pro II risers allows for use of full speed range using the speed bar only. 
The change from trim speed to fully accelerated is faster than ever before with the OAA system.
For normal flight OAA can be easily disengaged, allowing for operation of trimmers separate from speed bar.

2D Steering - allows for one hand use of both tip steering and main brakes.

The NRG PRO is the favorite wing for most professional pilots, but now it's time to take it up to the next level. NRG Pro II is an adrenaline junkies dream and still rock solid safe!

NRG Pro II takes-off and lands at slower speed than you would expect, making flying easy. All thanks to new highly efficient reflex profile. 

NRG Pro II will excite every experienced pilot - you will be infected by the racing virus instantly. The adrenaline rush will go through the roof and your heart rate will match the speed of the wing.

NRG Pro II purpose built for speed and agility to win the race, or just for low level ground skimming and fun.

WARNING:    DO NOT! test fly this wing, unless you are ready to buy it!
This wing is highly addictive!

CONSTRUCTION AND MATERIALS


Materials
The wing uses the same long lasting cloth and fully sheathed durable lines as on previous APCO wings. This is to guarantee its integrity for entire expanded lifespan of the wing. Nevertheless we made maximum effort to reduce the weight of the wing thanks to advanced solutions applied.

APCO is traditionally known for using materials and building techniques which offer double and triple lifespan over the expected. The glider is made from tear resistant Ripstop Nylon cloth, which is P.U. coated to zero porosity and then siliconized to give the fabric high resistance to the elements. Different cloth is used for the top, bottom and ribs due to their different functions.

The lines are made of superaramid covered with a polyester sheath for protection against UV, wear and abrasion.
The bottom section of the brake lines is made of Polyester because of its better mechanical properties. The Carabiners that attach the lines to the risers are made of stainless steel.
