The ATTAK consists of 26 cells and has internal crossed diagonals applied at the proles
to distribute the weight uniformly. This maintains the canopy very shapely and cleans
and reduces the induced drag.
The ATTAK was designed at the new software. Its enhanced design and prole are the
result of our continuous development and renement process in terms of performance
paired with stability. The improved features of this project permit a large speed range
and excellent stability.

THE MINI WING - INFORMATION
Take off weight
Tow release take off
Flight with engine
Tandem ight
If your take off weight is between two weight ranges we suggest the following procedure:
- For a more accurate and dynamic handling or if you usually y in the mountains and/or
turbulent conditions, you should choose to y in the upper weight range.
- For a better sink rate and if you usually y above at land and in light weather conditions,
you should choose to y in the lower weight range.
The Attak was not designed and is not certied for towing ight. SOL Paragliders doesn’t
recommend this type of ight.
The Attak was not designed and is not certied for engine ight. SOL Paragliders doesn’t

The Attak was not designed and is not certied for tandem ight. SOL Paragliders
doesn’t recommend this type of ight.
It’s not recommended to y
outside the weight range.
Each mini wing seize is dedicated to a certain weight range, from a minimum take off
weight to a maximum. The take off weight is the sum of the weight of:
1. the pilot
2. the mini wing
3. the harness with reserve
4. all ight accessories
PREPARING FOR FLIGHT
Laying out the mini wing
Harness
- Choose an easy training elevation with less inclination for the rst ight, without
obstacles and a day with easy weather conditions.
- Open your canopy and lay him down in shape of a horseshoe.
- Check fabric and lines, if there is any damage or fatigue caused by wear.
- Check if all quick links are closed.
- Identify, separate and organize all risers A, B, C and the brake lines.
The Attak was tested within the standard of LTF with a harness of type GH. We can
recommend for the Attak all harness of type ABS, tested with a carabiner connection
height between 42 and 48 cm, measured form the seat and depending on the seize.
Attention: the suspension height will inuence the “normal” brake position. Always use
a harness with back protection.
The distance between the carabiners should be correct. Together with your glider comes
an “Easy Check” measure tape which might help you to check the distance exactly.
It is extremely important
that there are no
entanglements and/or
bunched lines present.
If the distance is not within the range, the glider could have extreme, dangerous
or abnormal reaction in ight.

16 17
Connecting mini wing and harness
Without twisting the risers connect them with the carabiners of the harness. Check if
they are connected and positioned in the right way without any twist. The (A) riser must
be in front in ight direction.
Check if the carabiners are really looked and closed!
Accelerator
Most of modern harness have pulleys for assembling the Foot Speed System. The line
must be rmly attached to the stirrup. The other end of the line is fed through the harness’
pulleys and comes out vertically, and must be rmly attached to the clip of the quick look.
In order to adjust the Speed System, we suggest that you connect the harness and the
risers, suspended from the ground. Ask a friend to pull the risers (A) upwards. At this
time, adjust the length right to the bar in such way to be easily reachable with your feet
in ight and by stretching the legs, make sure to allow for a clear path to maximize the
accelerator usage.

FLIGHT
Take Off Check List
Forward Take off
When ready to takeoff, the pilot must have risers A and the toggles in hand. The arms
must be extended to the side, as if they are extensions of risers A. A decisive run allows
a quick and stable ination. After the initial ination momentum, the pilot must keep
the tension forward on risers A, not pulling them downwards, until the canopy is above
his head. At this point, the brakes must be carefully activated and the pilot must be
prepared for possible directional changes. A move to underneath the center of the mini
wing is the best method for corrections, provided there is room for it. The pilot glances at
last upwards to ensure the canopy is properly located above, completely unobstructed
and inated. Only at this point, the pilot decides whether or not to takeoff.

22 23
Reverse Take off
Thermals and Soaring
The preparation is the same as to forward take off. But this time you have to turn towards
the canopy. During the turn lift the hand which is turning away from the mini wing with
the risers above your head. Now you can inate the mini wing with the red A risers. Push
the risers up and let them go when the canopy is over your head. If necessary use the
brakes gently. Turn out and begin the start run. Attention: check to turn out to the right
side. Example you turned with your left side to the mini wing you have to turn out with
your left side to the mini wing. Otherwise you will have made a 360 degree turn and all
your risers are twisted.
In case of strong wind it could be necessary to make some steps towards the canopy
during ination. This take off method can be used even with little wind.
In turbulent conditions, the mini wing must be own with the brakes softly applied,
resulting in greater canopy stability. The pendulum effect back and forth must be
avoided! The canopy must remain on top of the pilot. For this purpose, the speed must be
increased by releasing the brakes upon entering a thermal (depending on its intensity) or
braking on exit. This is part of the basic technique on “active ying”.
During soaring, a minimum height of 50m over ground is highly recommended, for safety
reasons. Knowing and respecting ight regulations is extremely important, especially
when airspace within close proximities of mountains is shared among several pilots,
where last minute anti-collision maneuvers are not executable.
Turns
Accelerated ight
The Attak is very sensitive, responding instantly to turn commands. Leveled turns
can be achieved with the shifting of weight on the risers with minimum altitude loss.
A combination of weight shifting and breaking technique is the most efcient way of
executing turns in any situation. The given brake utilized determines the radius of turns.
By activating the brakes on the outside edge of the turns, as well as applying maximum
weight shifting on the risers, the efciency and resistance to collapse in turbulences (at
the edge of thermals) is increased.
In case it becomes necessary to perform turns in a constrained space we recommend to
release the outside brake in the given turn and pull a little more the brake on the inside
of the turn.
The mini wing glides best when no brakes are applied.
It is recommended to use the accelerator when ying against the wind or in zones with
descending air. Due to a decreased angle of attack, the canopy may collapse easier than
when set at the normal position. The pilot must remember that the higher the speed, the
more dynamic the collapse response or symmetric closing will be.
- Exercise the use of the accelerator during calm conditions.
- Be cautious ying accelerated in difcult and turbulent conditions.
- Remember: The higher the speed the higher the descent rate.
- Check always on all accelerator parts for good function and signs of wear.
By pulling either brake too strongly or suddenly, there is a danger of creating a
negative spiral!
Active ying
For best performance during your ight, it is important to be always sensitive to what
your canopy is trying to communicate. The key elements of active ying are: controlling
the canopy advancement and the canopy pressure. If you apply gently the brakes (about
+- 15cm) you are getting a good feedback about the canopy pressure, which can alter
easily in turbulent air. You can feel it very well on the brakes. The general idea: keep the
pressure constant.
Avoid ying excessively with the brakes on, cause you might brake to the point of stopping
the canopy from ying. Always consider your aerodynamic speed. Your movements can
be symmetric or asymmetric and both or one brake can be applied. This corrections
control your ight and reduce the risk of collapses. We suggest that you practice on the
ground. Canopy advancement and pressure loss can be simulated well on the ground.

24 25
Landing
Always choose a secure and clean landing side with lots of space, great distance to
natural obstacles and is not under the inuence of turbulent air.
- The nal approach stage must be done in straight line upwind.
- With less than 30m above ground avoid steer turns, they may result in dangerous
pendulous movements and the pilot could crash to the ground with high velocity.
- Before landing get up in your harness with the weight against the chest strap, especially
in turbulent conditions.
- Fly with hands up, without brakes, until more or less 1m over ground. In turbulent
conditions y active until the end. Than apply slowly and progressively the brakes to
reduce velocity until you can almost without speed land on the ground.
- Always adapt your landing on space, circumstances and wind.
- If the wind is strong and you feel it might be possible been dragged or uplifted after
landing, pull symmetrically the B risers. This movement kills the mini wing fast and
controlled and avoids a re-ination or that the mini wing turns into a great sail. After
killing the glider pull him back to you using the B risers.
The following maneuvers should be used only in emergency situations and need a
special training fore safety use. If possible attend a workshop to learn and practice this
maneuvers.
This maneuvers are used by cloud entrance and in case of approaching thunderstorms.
Remember: a good weather analysis before ight helps to avoid this maneuvers
during ight.
FAST DESCENT MANEUVERS
Big ears
Positive spiral
The Attak was not designed and is not certied for big ears. SOL Paragliders doesn’t
recommend this type of ight.
A positive spiral has a high sink rate. But the high acceleration, G-Force, impedes to y this
maneuver for a long time. The G-Force may cause that the pilot looses his consciousness
and spirals until he crashes the ground. The same high energy is acting on the equipment
and will shorten his endurance.
A positive spiral never should be exercised in turbulent conditions or strong lateral wind.
Under strong wind conditions the pilot has to remember that the lateral drift could be
enormous.
When the pilot activates just one brake, slowly and progressively, the paraglider inclines
sideways in a sharp angle and enters in a steep and quick turn, which may become a
positive spiral. During a spiral the rotation radius can be controlled by the force applied
to the inside brake.
In order to come out of the spiral, the pilot must release the brake slowly and shift his
weight lightly to the outside of the turn. A sudden exit may result in an exaggerated
forward movement of the canopy, and cause a collapse. For this reason, on the last turn,
the inside brake of a given turn must be softly applied again.
In case the canopy collapses during this process, the spiral must be counter-acted, as
the active canopy area will be reduced.
- Never combine big ears with spirals. The canopy active area reduction p l u s
the ‘G’ force may result in line and/or canopy damage.
- Leaving a fast spiral must be executed slowly and progressively.
- The maneuver requires high altitudes (at least 600 meter over ground) and is
dangerous, due high descent ratio the pilot can lose the altitude reference.
The Attak was not designed and is not certied for B-Stall. SOL Paragliders doesn’t
recommend this type of ight.
B-Stall

EXTREME FLIGHT SITUATIONS
Front-stall
Normally the mini wing opens on his own after a front-stall. In turbulent conditions it
may happen that the canopy make a fast movement forward, in order to avoid another
front-stall it is necessary to apply the brakes precisely.
Caution: If the brake lines are applied too much the glider could get into a full-stall.
Active ying almost ever avoids lateral closing. If lateral closing happens, the canopy
folds predictable and progressively from the tip to the center. This corresponds a collapse
of 50% or more and results in a slight tendency for a turn. The mini wing can be held on
course using the brake on the open side.
Normally the mini wing opens on his own. If the collapse happens during accelerated
ight the canopy has a more dynamic reaction, but even than the turn can be controlled
without problems.
To facilitate the closed side to ll the pilot has to pull down slowly (ca. 2 seconds) the
brake on the closed side and let go again (pump). Shifting the weight to the open side
helps to re-inate the sail and increases security, cause the brake has to be used less
and this avoids a full-stall.
Without action, the mini wing will begin a positive spiral. The pilot must lightly apply the
brake on the external side to stop a spiral and at the same time shift his weight on the
same side until the canopy is stabilized. Exactly at this stage of pendulum effect under
the canopy, it is important that the pilot controls carefully the amount of force applied on
the brakes, and often it is needed to decrease the force. Once a straight ight is achieved,
the closed side can be re-inated by the pumping action.
Lateral closing

28 29
Parachutal
Full-stall
If the mini wing is wet or the regular inspections weren’t made, the risk of a
parachutal ight exists.
This mini wing does not have parachutal ight tendencies and recovers on its own from
an intentional parachutal ight induced by braking commands. In case of a parachutal
ight after an extreme situation loose the brakes and use the accelerator. Before using
the brakes again make sure that the mini wing ies normally.
The mini wing has a long way on the brakes before he enters a full-stall. A full-stall
happens if the brakes are pulled symmetrically and excessively downwards. Normally
the mini wing starts to y backwards and deforms to a horseshoe, the opening on the
front.
Before terminating the canopy must be stabilized. Afterwards both brake lines have to
be loosened symmetrically and slowly, to avoid that the canopy kicks forward.
Negative spiral
The mini wing has a long way on the brakes and difculties to enter in a negative spiral.
But if one of the brakes is extremely pulled downwards it can happen.
The side with the brake pulled down enters in a stall, while the other side maintains
open. In this case the brake must be loosened at once, before the mini wing turns 180º,
in order to get the mini wing back to normal ight. Depending on the situation in which
the brake is loosened, the canopy can react quite dynamic and kick forward provoking
a collapse.
Line Over
Emergency ying
If the tip of the wing is trapped in lines it could cause a positive spiral, which is difcult to
control. To get out of this situation, rst stabilize your mini wing and get him into normal
ight. In other words control direction. Than pump on the side of the Line Over. During
this procedure lean on the opposite side, otherwise there is a risk to turn or increase the
spiral.
You also may try to pull the stabilo lines SR, the outer lines on the blue riser B, to free the
canopy. Watch out for the brake to avoid a stall on the clean side.
If the Line Over is big and all the counter action does not help and the mini wing is not to
manage, release the reserve, whilst you are having height enough.
In case of a brake line crack or the brake line is trapped or anything else happened and
doesn’t allow to use the brakes, use the C risers and weight shifting to steer the mini
wing. Land on the nearest possible side. This situation could happen in case of poor
maintenance of the equipment or an extreme ight situation.
Attention: the steering commands on C risers are much shorter than on the
brake lines.

There are different ways who can help to extend the life of your mini wing. One way is
to fold the mini wing right. It’s most important to watch out for the reinforcements to
maintain the take off characteristics and the performance. We are recommending the
“Origami Method” and the use of a Origami-Pack Sack (see below). Together with your
mini wing you get a traditional pack sack who also protects your mini wing. How to use
it we describe after the “Origami Method”.
PACKING YOUR MINI WING
Traditional-Method
Step 1: Bundle up your mini wing in form
of a cabbage. This way you’re avoiding
that the mini wing drags over the ground
during folding.
Step 2: Begin with the center of the trailing
edge. Put one prole over the other. Each
side separate.
Step 3: Now do it in the same way
with the leading edge proles. Put the
reinforcements of top and bottom in the
right way, don’t close the cell openings
and push out the fabric.
Step 4: Fold the wing like an accordion from both sides and put one side over the other.
Now all reinforcements are laying side-wise one above the other.
Step 5: Fold the sack as shown in the
photo. This method is very gentle to the
more stiffer parts of the mini wing.
Step 6: At last put the mini wing into the protection bag.

Step 1: Open your back pack and put your
mini wing in.
Storing
Back Pack
Most part of the mini wing fabric is Nylon. As all other synthetic materials it suffers and
deteriorates under the inuence of ultraviolet radiation (UV). It looses his stiffness and
gets more porous. Whenever it is possible avoid to submit your glider to the sun light, it
has a high UV rate, especially in heights. It is recommended to store your mini wing very
well whilst it not in use. It should be stored dry in a dry place, protected from UV rays,
distant from chemical products. Avoid to store the glider in hot places like the trunk of a
car.
We recommend that you store your equipment in the back pack. That way it is easy to
transport and protect. Your back pack was designed to be useful and comfort. Do it this
way:
Step 2: Your harness put above the glider
and close the zipper.
Step 4: Close all parts and pockets of the
back pack.
Step 3: Store your helmet and accessories
between the glider and the harness or in
the upper part of the back pack.

INSPECTION
REPAIRS
Your mini wing has strictly to follow the required inspection intervals. The rst inspection
check is mandatory completing 24 months, 100 hours ights or 100 ights, whichever
comes rst.After the rst inspection any wing must be checked yearly or at each 12
months, 100 hours ights or 100 ights, whichever comes rst.
. In any of these inspections may occur that a shorter period for the next inspection will
be dened (f. ex. 6 months 50 hours ights or 50 ights).
Without performing the mandatory inspections, the mini wing loses its certication and
the warranty becomes null and void.
After any kind of accident or a long period without use: sent the mini wing for inspection
to an authorized dealer’s workshop or to the manufacturer. It’s for your own good.
Minor repairs (see below) you could do by yourself, but all other repairs must only be
made by an authorized dealer’s workshop or the manufacturer.
Repairs must only be made by an authorized dealer’s workshop or to the manufacturer.
In case of minor repairs you are receiving with your mini wing a basic repair kit. It contains
adhesive labels in case of minor tears and quick link sealing.
Small tears up to 10 cm away from the line suspension points may be xed by yourself.
Beyond that the maintenance must be made by an authorized dealer’s workshop or the
manufacturer.
• Clean the spot where the adhesive label will be applied with a humid cloth.
• The adhesive label has to be at least 2,5 cm larger than the tear.
• Round the edges, otherwise the adhesive label could loosen after the aplication.
• Apply on both sides of the tear.
In case of a line crack we recommend to contact your dealer, an authorized dealer’s
workshop or the manufacturer. After the repair test the glider on the ground and check
if everything is alright.
Along with your kit you’re get sealing for the quick links. Don’t leave your risers without
them, because they avoid the movement of the screw nut, making it impossible to open.

dealer or your ying-school, they should know how to handle it.
ENVIRONMENT AND RECYCLING
Safety is the major theme of our sport. In order to y safely, pilots must train, study,
practice and be alert to the dangers around us. In order to achieve excellent safety levels,
we must y regularly as much as possible, don’t go beyond our limitations and avoid
exposing ourselves to unnecessary dangers. Learning to y is a slow process and takes
years, so don’t pressure yourself. If conditions are not favorable, keep your equipment
stored away.
Don’t overestimate your skills and be honest with yourself. Every year we see many
accidents which in most cases could be prevented with a minor adjustment.
We are a part of the community in which we live: friends, family and even people we
don’t necessarily know worry about us. Our obligation towards this community is to
keep ourselves healthy and that at each landing we will be one landing happier than
before. We y so that we can feel more alive.
We wish you good and safe ights with your new mini wing.
