Congratulations!
Thank you for choosing the RHYTHM2.

The RHYTHM2 has been designed for newcomers for the
paraglider.

This manual will help you to get all information about your glider.
We strongly recommend that you read this manual carefully in or-
der to be aware of any general limitations, performance character-
istics, take- off and flight characteristics, landing procedures, deal-
ing with emergency situations, and general maintenance.

This is information about the design of the RHYTHM2, advice on
how to use it best and how to care for it to ensure it has a long life,
We hope that the RHYTHM2 will give you a lot of satisfactory flying
times.

WARNING!

THIS IS NOT A TRAINING MANUAL. ATTEMPTING TO FLY THIS OR
ANY OTHER PARAGLIDER WITHOUT PROPER INSTRUCTION FROM
A CERTIFIED PROFESSIONAL INSTRUCTOR IS EXTREMELY DANGER-
OUS TO YOURSELF AND BYSTANDERS.

DAVINCI GLIDERS are carefully manufactured and inspect-
ed at the factory. Please use the glider only as described in
this manual.

Do not make any modifications to the glider.
As with any sport – without taking the necessary safety pre-
cautions, paragliding can be dangerous.

Congratulations!

-DAVINCI GLIDERS TEAM-
