Whats'up with the new Nikita?

I have been flying the old Nikita 21 for two years now and have a splitt oppinion about that wing. I'm looking for a new now and have concidered the new morpheus 19, but someone told me that the new Nikita looked quite fresh and a lot better that the old one.? Anyone have an oppinion about this glider? Maybe in comparission with morpheus?

Show me your break line setup for ACRO.

Hey everyone,
I watch a lot of acro videos and see that a number of guys have like a T bar on there break line doing acro. So do you have that setup and whats the advantage? I am thinking of doing that my self and want to know what people have made them out of?

Any photos would be a great help!

Light weight harness for acro.

Hello,

I am trying to shave some weight from my paragliding gear, so I can hike more and practice more acro.
My Gin Genie 3 harness is heavy, I would like to switch it to SupAir Hybrid harness which is few kilos lighter.
However the SupAir harness uses lighter material and takes 30mm carabiners and overall is not as robust as my Gin harness, which concerns me that something like buckles or strap might break.
Do you guys think SupAir harness is suitable for light acro?

I was surprisied to notice the good thermalling capability of the glider
Already did Wing-overz, then Full-Stalls, dinamic FS, SAT, dinamic SAT, helico attempts :)), no coconut yet, but managed to learn Looping. It's so easy with this glider :P.
I have a couple of questions:

Still need packing instructions for Rogallo reserve

Last Thursday I throw my reserve and lost the container. I have a new container but I'm not sure about how to pack the Rogallo (Vonblon) reserve. I would fly this week again, but without a reserve is not so good.. As far as I remember Skok is having packing instruction for Rogallo reserve. Does anybody else have instrutions? Iwould really need it!
Thanks in advance folks
