DAVINCI GLIDERS / RHYTHM

14. Packing your RHYTHM
15. Maintenance and cleaning
Spread the RHYTHM completely out on the ground. Separate the lines to the each side. The
RHYTHM must be folded cell to cell to keep the plastic reinforcement at the leading edge lie flat
on each other and don’t get bent. Try to pack your RHYTHM as loosely as the rucksack allows,
because every fold weakens the fabric.
Avoid packing the glider where it is wet or abrasive conditions(sand, asphalt pavement,
concrete)
Cleaning should be carried out with only pure water. If the glider comes in contact with salt
water, clean thoroughly with fresh water. Do not use solvents of any kind, as this may remove
the protective coatings and destroy the fabric.
13. Landing
We recommend to land with trimmers to the normal slow position. Don’t use the sharp turns
or radical maneuvers.
When you are 1-2m over the ground, you should face into wind and standing upright and ready
to run. Finally you may pull the brakes smoothly for minimize vertical speed.
Don’t hit the ground by your overtake the glider. If you in windy condition, as soon as you touch
the ground you have to turn around to face the glider and move towards it during full pulling
break symmetrically.
