Innovations
For the leading edge of the latest JOKER Edition, acro designer legend Ernst Strobl relies on the modernized high-tech design typical of U-Turn with pressure-optimized opening sizes and the reinforced Precision Profile Nose (PPN) with Nitinol alloys to optimize the airflow in the nose area. The PPN+ also keeps the individual cells in shape and ensures air intake by means of wafer-thin Nitinol wires incorporated centrally over the openings. – In combination with the valves in the bottom sail, this is a pure dynamic weapon. The additional ventilation provided by the Pressure Balance Valves (PBV) in the lower sail is an innovative invention from U-Turn. The PBV provides the wing with the necessary dynamic pressure even at unfavorable angles of attack and thus offers a higher tolerance range at extreme angles of attack in aerobatics. The High Pressure Crossport Design (HPCD) with internal valves optimizes the cross ventilation for a constant internal pressure of the wing. All attachment points are reinforced several times. As with all U-Turn acro wings, the Joker is also equipped with the Stabilo Security Function (SSF) to quickly release any hang-ups.
High Pressure Crossport Design
Sorgt fĂ¼r eine optimierte QuerbelĂ¼ftung der Crossports, dies hilft Druckunterschiede im FlĂ¼gelinneren effizient auszugleichen und einen ausgewogenen Innendruck im gesamten FlĂ¼gels zu gewährleisten.
Line Loop protection
Ein in die Verbindungslasche eingespleister Kevlarkern schĂ¼tzt den Loop und reduziert den Oberflächendruck bei den Leinenverbindungen.
Pressure Balance Valves
Die bewährten Ventile im Untersegel sorgen fĂ¼r zusätzliche BelĂ¼ftung in extremen Anstellwinkeln.
Precision Profile Nose
Das Precision Profile Nose-System sorgt mit Kunststoff-Verstärkungen in den Vernähungen fĂ¼r die Stabilität der Profilnase und optimiert damit die Strömung entlang der gesamten Eintrittsöffnung.
Material
The Joker has a very high-quality finish and is designed for durability under extreme loads. The numerous innovations and reinforcements require a very complex production process. U-Turn also uses the latest generation of the Thriller PX40 fabric, which has been further developed over the years, for the Joker. Only materials that have withstood the toughest long-term tests and can boast the best values are used. But everything is also done to ensure longevity and shape retention, including multiple reinforced seams and reinforcements on all line suspensions and V-tapes. The line connections are equipped with Line Loop Protection (LLP). A Kevlar core is inserted into the connection flap, which also prevents the line forks from snagging.
