Before landing slide out of the harness and assume proper position.
Landing when sitting is unacceptable and highly dangerous. Risk of
damage to your spine is very high. Land always on your feet, with a
few steps when necessary
Waterlanding
Waterlanding can be dangerous due to risk of drowning. If landing in
water is inevitable, unlock leg and chest straps a couple of meters
above water. Slide out of the harness shortly before entering water to
avoid tangling in lines or other parts of the paraglider.
Note:
Waterlanding is extremely dangerous when still in harness. If
you fly over the water frequently, get self-inflating rescue equipment.
The paramotor engine is heavy and will sink quickly. If you do not
unbuckle yourself before coming into contact with water, you will
need to do so while submerged - and this, needless to say, can be
hard. The risk of becoming entangled in lines and drowning is serious
and very high.
