15 cm. The wing will collapse across the entire span along its B-row, the
airflow over top surface will break and canopy surface will be decreased.
Forward movement will be almost completely stopped.
Further pulling B-risers is not advised, as it increases wing instability. If the
canopy forms a horseshoe with both wingtips in front of the pilot, gently apply
both brakes to recover.
To exit a B-stall, the risers should be released in a smooth and decisive
manner.
On quick and symmetrical releasing B-lines the airflow will reinstate and the
wing will surge forward, returning to normal flight. In contrast to classic
paragliders, in case of Nucleon
WRC
Cabrio there is no need to
counter this surge with brakes - yet another feature of the reflex profile!
CAUTION: see Parachutal Stall.
All rapid descent techniques should be practised in smooth air and only
with sufficient height! Due to wing size and significant take-off weight
many of the manoeuvres described above will be practically impossible.
BY FAR THE BEST TECHNIQUE IS SAFE AND CORRECT FLYING, SO
THAT YOU WILL NEVER NEED TO DESCEND RAPIDLY!
3.5 ACRO FLYING
Nucleon
WRC
Cabrio was not designed to do any aerobatics.
3.5.1 WING OVER
You make a wingover by performing a series of consecutive, alternating turns
with growing bank angle. Too much banking connected with some flaws in
co-ordination and execution can evoke pretty dynamic collapse.
CAUTION:Steep turn with bank angle over 60 degrees is a prohibited
aerobatic manoeuvre!
3.6 EXTREME FLYING MANOEUVRES
CAUTION: EXTREME FLYING MANOEUVRES SHOULD ONLY BE
CARRIED OUT DURING SAFETY TRAINING COURSE (INSTABILITY
TRAINING) UNDER PROPER GUIDANCE!
WHILE PROVOKING OR EXITING REAL SITUATIONS THERE IS A
DANGER THAT YOUR ACTIONS WILL PROVE TOO QUICK OR TOO
