● avoid tight turns, especially in the final approach. If conditions allow, you should also
fly slightly accelerated in this phase
● avoid large angles of attack and the possible early stall near the ground (release the
speed bar only slowly
Advertising and adhesives
Always make sure before attaching advertising to the glider that the adhesive planned will not
alter the glider’s flight behaviour. If you are in doubt, we recommend that you do not attach
the adhesive. Attaching adhesives to the glider which are large, heavy, or made of unsuitable
material may result in revocation of the certification.
Overloading
The glider structure is put under high levels of strain in particular on extreme flight
manoeuvres, rapid descent methods (spiral dives) or prohibited aerobatic manoeuvres. They
considerably accelerate the aging process of the structure and should therefore be avoided.
The glider must be inspected earlier than is usually the case if it has been put under more
than the usual degree of strain.
Sand and salt air
In many cases, sand and salt air cause the lines and fabric to age much more rapidly. If you
often fly near the sea, the glider should be inspected more frequently than normally required.
Temperature range
Temperatures under -10 °C and over +50°C can make the paraglider unfit to fly. The
manufacturer’s warranty will lapse if the glider is used outside of this temperature range.
