NEO is the 2024 laureate of the ARTINOV prize, the innovation competition organized by the Haute-Savoie Chamber of Trades and Crafts.
Developed in collaboration with AustriAlpin, the NEO AUSTRIALPIN ROCKET automatic aluminum carabiner has been designed to meet the specific safety requirements of paragliding.
Mountaineer and paraglider pilot Jean Yves Fredriksen has achieved the unthinkable! On July 29, 2024, he climbed to the summit of K2 (the second highest and most feared peak in the world) without oxygen via a completely new route: the Kukuczka route and the Cesen spur. He flew down it with a paraglider, something no one had ever managed before. An absolute altitude record without oxygen and without any other support.
Simon Winkler, commercial pilot, flight instructor and head of DHV training board and test pilot, tested the NEO STAND-UP Rescue System in real-life conditions during a flight over Lake Annecy. Read his feedback and impressions of this innovation, which greatly improves pilot safety when using the reserve parachute.
NEO Pro Model NEO is working on a harness performance project since a year, designed and developed with our ambassadors Maxime Pinot and Tim Alongi.
Our NEO ambassador, Jean-Yves Fredriksen, aka “Blutch”, is off on a new adventure in Pakistan. With the aim of realizing one of his dreams: to climb K2 and take off from the summit – a first! All in “alpine” style, i.e. without oxygen, sherpas or intermediate camps.
