Nervures (translated as Ribs in English) is a French company located in Soulom that specializes in the development and manufacture of paragliders and paramotor wings, offering these as fully assembled, ready-to-fly aircraft alongside various paragliding equipment.
The chief designer at Nervures, Xavier Demoury, has also played a role in creating glider designs for other notable manufacturers such as ITV Parapentes and Aerodyne Technologies.
Nervures is well-known for its broad selection of gliders, with particular emphasis on tandem models. For instance, during 2003-04, their catalog included tandem gliders like the Nervures Stromboli and Nervures Alpamayo.
In the mid-2000s, their intermediate category featured models including the Nervures Altea, Nervures Estive, Nervures Valluna, and the mountain descent-specific Nervures Kenya.
