Designers’ thoughts
Our design goal with the D-light was to make the world of lightweight
hike&y paragliding available to everyone, right from the rst little
hops on the training hill. It is both a good, balanced school glider
with easy takeoff, ying and landing characteristics, and a perfect
companion for all sorts of Hike&Fly adventures. During the design
and development process we took the new glider on many of our own
little para-alpinism outings, and rened it until it t our expectations
perfectly. The D-light has a nice clean canopy shape, featuring
diagonal ribs for line reduction and mini-ribs for clean trailing edge
shape. The entire design is optimised for minimal weight in a very
user-friendly package.
Aljaž and Urban Valič
The D-light is EN-A, LTF-A class glider designed for weight-
conscious beginners and intermediate pilots. This glider is
developed for lightness combined with maximum safety. Our
focus with this glider was on lightweight XC abilities, and we
believe that pilots will have great fun during their rst steps
in paragliding and progression toward becoming the new
Hike&Fly and XC masters.

16 17
risk of a collapse is higher in accelerated ight. Additionally, the
reaction of the glider to a collapse in accelerated ight is more
dynamic compared to one which occurs at trim speed.
We recommend avoiding accelerated ight near the ground and to
be very alert when using the accelerator in turbulent conditions.
Use a soft speed bar, which enables you to accelerate the glider
by using only one leg., and use weight shift to control the direction.
To control the pitch, change the amount of speed bar. Do not use
or pull the brakes while using the speed bar. Use the speed bar
progressively when accelerating, and instantly release when you
feel a slight loss of tension, pressure or even a collapse. If you
encounter a collapse while using the accelerator, release the speed
bar immediately before taking any other corrective action. Always
keep more distance from the ground when using the speed bar.
Active ying
This is a basic ying technique for any pilot. It implies permanent
control and the correction of pitch and roll movements together
with the prevention of any deations or collapses. In a nutshell
this means ying straight through active or turbulent air, so that
the pilot keeps the glider vertically above their head at all times,
compensating and correcting any unwanted movements of the
wing.
Few examples:
• While entering a strong thermal, the wing will stay a little bit
behind relative to the pilot. The pilot should ease the brakes
up, allowing the wing to y faster and to catch up.
•
If the wing surges in front of the pilot, the pilot should counter
brake until the surge is controlled and then release the brakes
to let the glider y normally.
•
If the pilot feels a loss of tension on the wing or a loss of
pressure on the brakes on one side of the wing, he should
smoothly apply the brake on the side with loss of pressure and/
or weight shift to the opposite side until the pressure returns.
After that, again release the brake and/or weight shift to the
neutral position and let the glider y normally.
The key in all cases is to avoid an over-correction and not to
maintain any correction longer than necessary. After each action
let the glider y normally again, to re-establish its required ying
speed. You can train or get a feeling for most of these movements
safely on the ground while ground handling your glider. Good
coordination of your movements and coordination with the wing
on the ground will enable you a quick progression when actively
ying in the air. The next step is to attend SIV clinics, where you
should also get a better understanding of the full brake range and
the glider’s speeds.
Flying in turbulence
Wing deations (collapses) can occur in strong turbulence. The
D-light is designed and tested to recover without pilot input in
almost all situations, by simply releasing the brakes and letting the
glider y. To train and understand all the manoeuvres described,
attend SIV clinics.
Cascade of events
Many reserve deployments are the result of a cascade of
over-corrections by the pilot. Over-corrections are usually not
problematic because of the input itself or its intensity; but more
due to the timing of the pilot input. After every input you have to
allow the wing to re-establish its normal ying speed. Note that
over-corrections are often worse than no input at all, particularly
on EN A wings like the D-light.
Asymmetric deflations
Strong turbulence may cause the wing to collapse asymmetrically.
Before this occurs the brake lines and the feeling of the harness
will transmit a loss of pressure to the pilot. This feedback is used
in active piloting to prevent a collapse. If the collapse does occur,
the D-light will easily re-inate without pilot reaction, but the
wing will turn towards the collapsed side. To prevent this from
happening, turn and actively recover the asymmetric collapse by
weight shifting and applying appropriate brake input on the side
that is still ying. Be careful not to over-brake your wing’s ying
side. This is enough to maintain your course and give the glider
enough time to recover the collapsed side by itself. To actively
reopen the collapsed side after course stabilization, pull the brake
line on the collapsed side rmly and release it. You can do this
several times with a smooth pumping motion. After the recovery,
release the brake lines for your glider to regain its trim speed. Note
that asymmetric collapses are much more dynamic when ying
accelerated. This is due to the difference in weight and resulting
inertia of the (light) canopy and the (heavy) pilot hanging below.
Symmetric deflations
Symmetric or frontal deations normally reopen immediately
by themselves without pilot input. The glider will then regain its
airspeed accompanied by a small surge forwards. To actively
control this event, apply both brakes slightly when the collapse
occurs and then instantly release the brakes to let the glider y.
Be prepared to compensate for a slight surge forward while the
glider regains normal ying speed.
Wing tangle, cravat
The D-light is very unlikely to cravat, but it may occur after a
severe deation or in a cascading situation, when the wing tip gets
caught in the lines. Pilots should be familiar with the procedure for
handling this situation with any glider. Familiarize yourself with the
stabilizer main line (“stabilo” line, orange colour) while unpacking
and preparing the wing. If a cravat occurs, the rst thing to do is
to try to keep the glider ying in a straight line. Do this by weight
shifting and counter braking the untangled side. After that, grab
the stabilizer main line on the tangled side, pull it down until it
becomes tight again. At this point the cravat normally releases
itself.
Possible solutions of the cravat situations (consult your SIV
instructor):
• Pulling the wing tip “stabilo” line
• Using a full stall, but it is essential to be very familiar with this
manoeuvre. You also want to have a lot of altitude.
• If you are in a situation where you have a cravat and you are low
in rotation or even with twisted risers, then the only solution is to
deploy the reserve parachute.
Negative spin
In normal ight you are far from negative spin. But, certain
circumstances may lead to it. Should this occur, just release the
overbraked line progressively and let the wing regain ying speed.
Be prepared for a canopy surge forward, and compensate the
surge with brake input if necessary.

18 19
Full stall
A full stall does not occur unintentionally on its own – it happens
if you pull both brakes all the way below the seat and hold them
there. The wing then performs a so called full stall. Releasing the
brakes improperly
may in rare cases lead to a massive surge of the glider, with danger
of falling into the canopy. The full stall is a complex manoeuvre
and as such outside the scope of this manual. You should practice
and learn this
manoeuvre only during SIV clinics, under professional tuition.
Deep stall
Generally when in deep stall, the wing has no forward motion and
at the same time high sink speed. When in deep stall the wing
is almost fully inated, but looks “limp” and creased from below.
The D-light is very unlikely to get into a deep stall unintentionally,
but under rare circumstances it could possibly happen if you are
ying at a very low speed in turbulent conditions. Also the porosity
of the material and line stretch on a very old glider can increase
the risk of deep stall. If you have already trained this manoeuvre
during an SIV clinic you probably know that it is very hard to keep
the D-light in deep stall, because as soon as you apply a little bit
more brake you immediately enter a full stall phase, and if you
release the brakes just a little bit too much the wing returns to
normal ight. If you want to practice the deep stall on SIV courses,
you need to master the full stall rst.
Fast descent techniques
Fast descent techniques should be familiar to any pilot, as
they are important tools to be used in certain situations. These
manoeuvres should be trained as a part of the normal paragliding
pilot training at your ying school. We also recommend practicing
these manoeuvres during SIV clinics, under professional tuition.
Big ears
This is a safe method to moderately loose altitude while still
maintaining forward speed. To do big ears, release any brake line
loops around your wrist, set your leg on the speed bar, but do not
push it. Now pull the outer A lines (the A2 risers in the drawing)
on both sides. As long as you keep the A2 risers pulled, the wing
tips stay folded and the sink rate increases. To return to normal
ight, release the A2 risers, and if necessary apply the brakes with
short pumping movements. Release big ears at least 100 meters
above the ground. While using big ears, the wing speed decreases,
which is why we also recommend using the accelerator half way
in combination with big ears to maintain enough horizontal speed
and to also additionally increase vertical speed. Be careful not to
pull the brakes while making the ears! Steering is done by weight
shift only. Always do the big ears rst and then accelerate; not the
other way around as you risk getting a frontal collapse.
B line stall
While in the B-stall the glider has no horizontal speed and the
sink rate increases to about -8m/s. To enter the B-stall reach
for the B risers just below the maillons and pull both B line
risers symmetrically for about 20 cm. To exit the manoeuvre,
simultaneously release both risers quickly. On exit the D-light
gently surges forward, without deep stall tendencies.
Spiral dive
The spiral dive is the most demanding of all three manoeuvres
(Big ears, B-stall, Spiral) and should only be trained gradually and
always high above the ground. The spiral dive should be practiced
and learned on a SIV course under professional tuition. To enter
the spiral, weight shift to the desired side and gradually apply the
brake on the same side. Then let the wing accelerate for two turns
and you will enter the spiral dive.
While in the spiral, control your descent rate and bank angle by
applying more or less inside brake. Depending on how steep the
spiral is you may need to apply outer brake. To exit the spiral dive
we recommend returning to a neutral weight shift position. If you
release the inner brake, the wing exits the spiral dive by itself.
The D-light has no tendency to remain stable in a spiral, but you
should always be aware of the correct procedure for exiting a
stable spiral.
To exit a stable spiral dive, weight shift to the opposite side of
the turn and apply the outer brake until feeling the deceleration of
the wing rotation. Then release the outer brake and let the glider
decelerate for the next couple of turns. To avoid a big pendulum
movement after exiting the spiral, apply a short brake input on
the inner side before the glider exits the spiral.
Warnings (Spiral dive):
•
There is a possibility of losing consciousness while in a spiral
dive. Never make a spiral with more than -16 to -18m/s vertical
speed.
•
In fast spirals it may be necessary to apply the outer brake to
begin exiting the spiral dive.
• If practicing the spiral dive low, a pilot may not have enough
altitude or time to safely exit this manoeuvre.
Winch launch
The D-light is easy to launch using a winch and has no special
characteristics considering this kind of launching. To practice this
launching technique, special training is needed and you need to
be aware of the procedures and dangers specic for winching.
We do not recommend using any special towing device which
accelerates the glider during the winch launch.
Aerobatics
The D-light was not designed for aerobatics, therefore, these
should not be performed on this glider. In addition to this, any
extreme manoeuvres place unnecessary stress on the glider and
shorten its lifespan.
Primary controls failure
If for any reason you cannot use the brake lines, you have to pilot
the wing to the landing place by using weight shift. Weight shift
should be enough to safely land the glider. You can also use the C
risers to control and steer the wing. Be careful not to over-handle
the glider by using the C riser technique when steering. By pulling
the C risers too far you may cause a stall or a negative spin.
Land your glider at trim speed without using the C risers, to avoid

20 21
over-handling the glider low above ground. We recommend using
only weight shift.
Landing
Similarly to the take-off, the D-light’s landing characteristics are
easy. In turbulent conditions it is advisable to apply about 15% of
brake, to increase stability and the feeling of the glider.
Before landing, adopt the standing position as this is the most
effective and the safest way to compensate the touch down with
your legs. Again we recommend training the landing manoeuvre,
as it might be useful to be able to land in small places, especially
in an unknown cross country terrain. Learn to evaluate the wind
direction by observing the signs on the ground and your drift
while making turns. This is useful for cross country, when landing
away from your usual landing eld. Another advice we suggest
taking into account in stronger winds is to head for the landing
eld earlier, thus making sure you reach them. Likewise, always
look for possible alternatives downwind.
Maintenance
General advice
Careful maintenance of your glider and the following simple
guidelines will ensure a much longer airworthiness and performance
of your wing:
•
Pack your glider after you land and do not expose it to
unnecessary UV radiation, by leaving it unpacked in the landing.
The sun UV radiation degrades the cloth and line material.
•
Fold your glider as recommended under “Packing instructions”
below.
• If the glider is damp or wet when you pack it, partially unfold
it at home to allow it to dry. Do not dry it in direct sunlight.
•
Avoid exposing the glider to violent shocks, such as the leading
edge hitting the ground.
•
Avoid dragging the glider on the ground or through rocky
terrain as you might damage the lines or canopy.
• Avoid stepping on the lines or canopy, especially when they
are lying on a hard surface.
•
Avoid exposing the glider to salt water, as it damages the lines
and the canopy material (wash with fresh water).
• Avoid bending your lines, especially in a small radius.
•
Avoid opening your glider in strong winds without rst
untangling the lines.
•
In general, avoid exposing your glider to very hot or humid
environments, UV radiation or chemicals.
Packing instructions
It is important to pack your glider correctly, as this prolongs its
lifespan. We recommend that you fold the glider like an accordion,
neatly aligning the cell walls with the leading edge reinforcements,
side by side. The wing should then be folded in three parts or two
folds. The wing should be packed as loosely as possible. While
packing be careful not to trap any grasshoppers inside your canopy
as they will chew through the canopy cloth. By adhering to these
few simple guidelines you ensure that your glider last longer and
preserves its best performance. for longer.
Storage
Correctly packed, store your glider in a dry place at room
temperature. The glider should not be stored damp, wet, sandy,
salty or with objects inside the cells of the glider. Keep your
equipment away from any chemicals.
Cleaning
If necessary always clean your glider with fresh water and a cloth
only, without using any cleaning chemicals. This includes both
lines and canopy. More importantly, always remove stones or
sand from the canopy as they will gradually damage the material
and reduce the glider’s lifespan.
Repair
To repair small damages (less than 5cm) to the canopy, you may
use rip stop repair patches. Greater damages, including damage
to stitches and lines, should be repaired by a specialized repair
shop. Damaged lines should be replaced by a Triple Seven dealer.
When replacing a line it should always be compared with the
counterpart for adjusting the appropriate length. After the line was
repaired, the wing should be inated before ying, to ensure that
everything was done correctly. Major repairs, such as replacing
panels, should only be carried out by a Triple Seven distributor or
Triple Seven. If you are unsure about the damage or in any doubt
please contact Triple Seven.

Top 5 tips
1. Master your takeoff and ground handling techniques. This is great way to get a feeling for the glider
and basic active piloting skills while still safely on the ground.
2. Fly together with friends and have fun! Share exciting stories and ask questions to more
experienced pilots.
3. Safety rst, remember that its better to stay on the ground wishing to be in the air then to be in the
air wishing to be on the ground. The mountain will still be there tomorrow.
4. Step by step, practice your equipment and techniques. Climbing is the most important! Practice it,
especially in weak conditions, and don’t be afraid to bomb out.
5. Attend safety and XC courses and learn to y your glider safely.
