IMPORTANT
In the unlikely
event of a brake line
snapping in ight, or
a handle becoming
detached, the glider
can be own by
gently pulling the rear
risers (C-risers) for
directional control.

IMPORTANT
Using the accelerator
decreases the angle
of attack and makes
the wing more prone
to collapse, therefore
using the accelerator
near the ground or in
turbulent conditions
should be avoided.
NOTE
It is recommended
to pilot the wing with
the rear risers during
accelerated ight.
Accelerator System
Tosetuptheacceleratorsystem,rstroutethelinessuppliedwiththespeedsystemthroughtheharness.
Makesurethisisdonecorrectlyand that the lines pass through allofthepulleys(checkyourharness
manualforinstructions).Attachthespeedsystemlinesto theacceleratorsystem ontheriserswiththe
Brummelhooks.

IMPORTANT
Never take off with
a glider that is not

are not in control of
the pitch/roll of your
wing.

IMPORTANT
Induce Big ears one

I
MPORTANT
The pitching movement
on exiting the B stall is
small but necessary.
We recommend you do
not brake the glider
until you are sure that
the glider is ying
properly
again.
IMPORTANT
Always be prepared
to pilot the wing out
of a spiral dive. Use
opposite weight shift
and apply enough
outside brake to
stop the wing from
spiralling.

IMPORTANT
Only a few cms of
input from your
brakes can maintain
your wing in the stall.
Always release your
wraps if you have
taken them!
IMPORTANT
A bad preparation
on launch, aerobatic
ying, ying a wing of
too high a level or in
conditions too strong
for your ability, are
the main causes of
cravats.
IMPORTANT
Never y in the rain or

IMPORTANT: Do NOT lay the wing
at on the ground before packing the
glider, this will cause abrasion damage
to the top surface as you pull the glider
towards the middle. ALWAYS pack from
a mushroom or lift the wing off the
ground when gathering the wing and
grouping the leading edge.
IMPORTANT: Do not fold the glider in the centre, you
will bend the plastics, instead pack the wing with a full
concertina method from tip to tip before packing into the
stuff sac.
