Before ight
Elements, components
The Knight is delivered together with a rucksack, inner bag,
compression strap, Triple Seven T-shirt and USB key with this manual.
Assembly
Before you rush to the rst take-off we recommend you take your
time to unpack and test your equipment on a training slope. In
this way you will have time and will not be distracted or rushed
to prepare your equipment, andyou will be able to do your rst
pre-ight check properly.
The place should be at, free of obstacles, and with light wind.
This will enable you to nicely inate the wing and also familiarize
yourself with it while ground handling. Every glider has to be
checked by a Triple Seven dealer, however, as a pilot you want to
do a proper pre-ight check yourself.
Firstly, prepare and spread out the glider like you would normally
do. While you are spreading out and walking along the glider,
observe the fabric material for any abnormalities. When you are
done with the inspection of the canopy, grab the risers and spread
the lines, check if the risers and maillons (carabiners) are properly
closed. Identify and disentangle the A1, A2, B, C risers and the
lines including the brake lines. Connect the risers’ main attachment
points correctly to the harness, watch for any twists and make

11
sure that the main carabiners are properly closed.
Harness
The Knight has passed EN-B certication testing using a GH - ABS
type harness. This certication allows the Knight to be own with
most of the harnesses on the market, but keep in mind that the
change of a harness greatly inuences the feeling of the glider,
depending on the effectiveness of the harness weight shift. Check
with the harness manufacturer or with your instructor whether
your harness is of the proper type.
The length of the harness chest strap affects the distance between
the main carabiners and the wing’s handling as well as your stability
in the harness. Tightening the chest strap increases your stability,
but greatly increases the risk of twisting after a collapse. A tight
setting also increases the tendency to maintain a deep spiral. As a
rule of thumb, a more opened chest strap gives you more feedback
from the glider, which is good for your climbing efciency and
increases safety in a ying incident. But we strongly recommend
adjusting the length of the harness chest strap according to the
lengths used during certication. This setting varies according to
the harness size from 42cm to 50cm. Check the settings used
during testing under the certication specimen section.
We recommend that your rst ight with the Knight is not also with
a new harness. Another rule of thumb is if you want to experience
the feeling of new equipment, change only one part of equipment
at a time.
Accelerator settings
Before attaching the accelerator system to the Knight risers,
check that the speed system inside your harness is correctly
routed and that all pulleys are set correctly. Make sure there are
no knots or other obstacles that might make the accelerator get
stuck during usage.
The length of the speed bar lines should be adjusted on the ground
so that your legs are fully extended at the point of full accelerator
travel. While setting the speed line lengths make sure they are long
enough, so that the speed system does not accelerate the glider
by itself. If in doubt how to properly set the accelerator system,
please consult your instructor or Triple Seven dealer.
Brakes’ adjustments
The length of the brake lines has already been adjusted by the
manufacturer and is the same as used during the certication test
ights. The length is set and ne-tuned during the development of
the glider, therefore generally there should be no need to adjust
them. We recommend ying this setting for a while, and you can
still change it afterwards if you wish to do so. If you change the
length of the brakes, do it in a step by step process of 2 cm at a
time. Bear in mind that if you make the brake lines too short, they
might be applied unintentionally while the speed system is being
used. The brake travel is greater than, up to 80 kg - 55 cm, from
80 kg to 100kg - 60 cm and over 100 kg - 65 cm.

12
Weight range
Each size of the Knight is certied for its own weight range. The
above mentioned weight includes the weight of the pilot and
complete paragliding equipment, together with the glider, harness,
all accessories and optional ballast. Every glider changes its
characteristics by changing the take-off weight. We recommend
that you always y your glider in the specied weight range.
To measure your take-off weight, step on a scale with all your
equipment packed in the rucksack.
Lower half of the weight range
Flying the Knight, as any other glider, in the lower part of the weight
range, causes the agility of the glider to decrease, and when ying
through turbulence its tendency for collapses relatively increases
as compared to ying it in the upper wing loading range. However,
reactions after a collapse are less dynamic and sink rate improves.
Therefore, if you mainly y in weak conditions, you might prefer
this weight range.
Upper half of the weight range
Again, as with any other glider, ying the Knight in the upper part
of the weight range increases the stability and agility of the glider.
Consequently, there is a slight increase in the glider’s speed and
also gliding performance, especially when ying against the wind.
If you normally y in stronger conditions and you prefer relatively
more dynamic ying characteristics, you should set the take-off
weight in the higher weight range. Reactions after a collapse may
be more dynamic in the upper half of the weight range.
Wing ination
Still being on the training slope and having prepared and checked
everything, inate your wing and play with it to get a feel of your
new glider while ground handling. By doing this you are making a
nal check of the canopy and lines, and that everything is in order.
You will nd that the Knight inates very easily and smoothly
without excessive energy and with minimum pressure while moving
forwards. For ination and lifting the glider you may use only the
A1 risers. Do not pull on the risers just with your hands, instead
use your whole harness. Your hands should only accompany the
rising movement of the wing. When the wing is above you, apply
correct pressure on the brake lines and the glider will stay above
you.
Modications on the glider
Any modications of the lines or risers’ speed system cause the
loss of the certication, similarly to ying the wing outside the
weight range.
Preight safety
Before ying the Knight, you should obtain all practical and
theoretical training and the certication for ying this kind of
wing. Pilots should be physically and mentally t, using complete
paragliding equipment and ying only in conditions suitable for
their level of ying expertise.

13
Flying Knight
First Flight
Now that you have already familiarized yourself with your new glider
while ground handling on a training slope, you are ready for your
rst ight. For the rst ight it is recommend that you choose a
familiar ying area and to y your new glider in calm conditions.
Preight check equipment
Before every ight you need to do a pre-ight check and the
inspection of other equipment. Learn to do this, as it takes no
extra time. This procedure may vary, depending on the instructor,
pilot or equipment settings. Some pilots have their wing always
connected to the harness. However you should have a consistent
method of checking and preparing your equipment and doing the
nal pre-ight check.
1. After the arrival on take-off, assess the suitability of ying
conditions.
2. While walking around the canopy preparing and spreading
out the wing, you should at the same time inspect the canopy.
3. After you check the lines and connect the risers to the harness,
grab the lines and slide them through your ngers as you walk
towards the canopy. In this way you double check that the lines
are not tangled, stuck or damaged. If meanwhile the canopy
moves, walk around and correct it again.
4.
Inspect the harness, reserve, speed system and all connections.

14
Final preight check
1. Strap into the harness. The leg straps should be the rst to be
connected on the take-off and the last ones to be released
after the ight. Make sure you are strapped in correctly and
wearing a helmet.
2. Check the risers for a twist and that the carabiners are properly
closed. Check if the speed system is not affecting your risers
– accelerating unintentionally.
3. Check the lines. The A riser lines should be on top, and all
lines untangled. Check if none of the lines are lying over or
below the canopy.
4. Check the canopy. The glider should be spread out in the
shape of an arch and all cells open.
5. Check the wind, take-off and airspace. The wind should
be favourable for take-off and the pilot’s level of expertise.
Airspace should be cleared, together with the take-off area.
Ination, control, take-off
The Knight has easy take-off behaviour and does not require any
additional advice regarding the forward or reverse launch. Try to
divide and practice the take-off procedure in three steps.
1. Inating and raising the glider
2. Controlling the wing and wing check
3. Accelerating and take-off
It is always advisable to practice and improve proper launching
techniques as this reduces unnecessary additional stress before
the take-off.
Wind speeds up to 25 to 30km/h are considered strong and extra
care is required for the ight. If you are launching in strong winds
we recommend the reverse launch technique, with your brakes
in the right hands at all times. Launch the glider with a gentle pull
and then walk towards it if necessary to reduce the relative wind
force. When the glider is above you, gently control the wing and
take off.
Line knots or tangles
If you fail to observe a line knot or you nd yourself ying with a
knot before being able to prevent the unintentional, uncontrolled
take-off, try to stay away from the ground or other pilots by ying
away from the mountain, before taking any corrective action on
the wing. This means that you weight shift and/or counter brake
the opposite side of the wing and control the ying direction with
the least amount of force needed for the wing to y straight away
from the mountain.
Be careful not to apply too much brake or to y too slowly to
avoid a stall or spin. When you are at a safe distance away from
the mountain and you have gained relative height by ying away,
you may want to gently and briey pull the lines that are tangled
with the knot. If the knot is on the brake lines you might want to
gently and briey “pump” the appropriate brake line.
Please note that by pulling the lines, the knot may get stuck in
a worse position and the situation may escalate also to a stall
or spin. Therefore, if you estimate that you can control the wing
relatively safely and that the knot is not released by gently and

15
briey pulling the tangled lines, immediately y to the landing
zone and land safely.
Normal ight, best glide
Without any brakes applied and without using the accelerator,
the wing ies at the so called “trim speed“. In calm air this is
theoretically the best glide speed. The best speed glide depends
on the glider’s polar and air mass, vertical and horizontal speed.
We recommend reading more about the theory of the best glide
and McCready theory.
Minimum sink
If you apply brakes on both sides for about 15 to 20cm you will slow
the glider to the theoretical minimum sink speed. But we do not
recommend using this speed even for thermalling, as you achieve
much better climbing and control by letting the glider y with its
“trim speed” and natural energy. With a proper take-off weight
you will nd that the glider has great climb, reactions and agility.
Accelerated ight
After you get comfortable ying the Knight, you can start practicing
using the speed system, which will provide better performance
while gliding against the wind and through a sinking air mass. The
Knight was designed to be stable through its entire speed range,
but this requires the use of active ying techniques. Note that any
glider becomes less stable while ying accelerated and that the
risk of a collapse is higher in accelerated ight. Additionally, the
reaction of the glider to a collapse in accelerated ight is more
radical in comparison to the one which occurs at trim speed.
We recommend that you avoid accelerated ight near the ground
and to be very careful using the accelerator in turbulent conditions.
Use a soft speed bar, which enables you to accelerate the glider
by using only one leg. To control the direction use weight shift. To
control the pitch change the amount of the 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 intermediate and advanced
pilot. It implies permanent control and the correction of pitch and
roll movements together with the prevention of any deations or
collapses. In a nutshell this means ying straight through active
or turbulent air, so that the pilot keeps the glider above his or
her 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 let the brake 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 glider

16
to let it 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 courses where you
should also get a better understanding of the full brake range and
the glider’s speeds.
Flying in turbulence
Wing deations can occur in a strong turbulence. The Knight is
designed and tested to recover without pilot’s 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 courses.
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 due to
the length of time the pilot continues to over-handle. 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.
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 Knight will easily re-inate without the pilot’s 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. You must be aware of the fact that asymmetric
collapses are much more radical when ying accelerated. This is
due to the difference in weight and the inertia of the canopy and
the pilot hanging below.
Symmetric deflations
Symmetric or frontal deations normally reopen immediately by
themselves without pilot’s input. The glider will then regain its
airspeed accompanied by a small surge forwards. To actively

17
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 the glider’s slight surge forward
while returning to normal ying.
Wing tangle, cravat
A cravat is very unlikely to happen with the Knight, but it may
occur after a severe deation or in a cascading situation, when
the wing tip gets caught in the glider’s lines. A pilot should be
familiar with the procedure of handling this situation with any
glider. Familiarize yourself with the stabilizer’s main line (“stabilo”
line) already on the ground. If a cravat occurs, the rst thing to
do is to try to keep the glider ying on a straight course. Do this
by weight shifting and counter braking the untangled side. After
that, grab the stabilizer’s main line on the tangled side and 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 relative height.
• 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 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
brake lines progressively and let the wing regain its ying speed.
Be prepared for the glider to surge forward, compensating the
surge with brake input if necessary.
Full stall
A full stall does not occur unintentionally on its own – it happens
if you pull both brakes for 100% and hold them. The wing then
performs a so called full stall. Releasing the brakes improperly
may lead to massive surge of the glider with danger of falling into
the canopy.This is a complex manoeuvre and as such outside the
scope of this manual. You should practice and learn this manoeuvre
only on a SIV course under professional supervision.
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 inated. With the Knight it is very unlikely to get into
this situation unintentionally. This 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 possibility of the deep stall tendency. If you trained
this manoeuvre on a SIV course you would realize that it is very
hard to keep the Knight in deep stall. If you apply the brakes a
little bit too much you enter the full stall. 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.

18
Fast decent techniques
Fast descent techniques should be well familiar to any pilot as they
are important resources to be used in certain situations. These
manoeuvres should be learned at your ying school as a part of
paragliding pilot training. Nevertheless, we recommend practicing
these manoeuvres on SIV courses under professional supervision.
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 speed increases. To regain normal
ight, release the A2 risers, and if necessary apply the brakes with
short impulse 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 will 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 Knight
gently dives 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 at high altitude. The spiral dive should be practiced and
learned on a SIV course under professional supervision.
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,
you can control your descent rate and bank angle by applying
more or less inner brake. Depending on how steep the spiral is
you may need to use also outer brake.
To exit the spiral dive we recommend that the pilot is in the neutral
weight shift position. If you release the inner brake, the wing exits
the spiral dive by itself. The Knight has no tendency of a stable
spiral but you should be aware of the 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 the
spiral dive. Never make a spiral with more than 16-18m/s

19
sinking 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 Knight 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 have to
be aware of the procedures and dangers, which are specic for
winching. We do not recommend using any special towing device
which accelerates the glider during the winch launch.
Aerobatics
The Knight was not designed for aerobatics, therefore, these may
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 strong you can cause a stall or a negative spin.
Land your glider at trim speed without using the C risers, to avoid
over-handling the glider low above ground. We recommend using
weight shift.
Landing
Similarly to the take-off, the Knight’s landing characteristics are
easy. In turbulent conditions it is advisable to apply about 15%
of the brakes, 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 also your drift
while making turns. This proves to be useful for cross country,
when landing outside of your usual landing eld. Another advice
we suggest taking into account in stronger winds is to go higher
for the landing elds and thus assuring you reach them. Likewise,
always look for possible alternatives downwind.

20
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 unnecessarily
expose it to UV radiation by leaving it on the landing site
unpacked. The sun UV radiation degrades the cloth and lines
material.
• Fold your glider like recommended under the section of packing
instructions.
• 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 correctly pack your glider as this prolongs its
lifespan. We recommend that you fold the glider like a harmonica,
neatly aligning the proles 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 tear the canopy cloth. This technique will make your
glider last longer and ensure its best performance.
