deflation.
When you meet this situation you should fully raise up
the both brakes and push the A-risers forwards or use
the speed bar symmetrically to regain normal flight.
12.5 Asymmetrical stall
It can take place when you pull one of the brakes too
hard, or while spiraling at a small speed in turbulence
you increase the angle of attack. Rotation in the
asymmetrical stall is called negative spiral. This is one
of the most dangerous flying situations. In order to get
out of asymmetrical stall, just release the brakes.
There may follow side thrust forward with a following
wing collapse.
12.6 B stall
The Point has a very clean stable B stall. To enter the
B stall, the pilot has to pull the first 20cm slowly until
the r glider loses forward speed and starts to descend
at around 6 m/s vertically. Do not release the brake
handles during B stall. If you pull too much B-line the
glider may horseshoe and move around a lot. If this
happens, release the B risers.
To exit the B-stall the B-risers should be released
symmetrically and in one smooth, progressive motion.
The glider will resume normal forward flight without
