Bolero 7 user manual
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
We recommend initially adjusting the distance of the chest strap according to the table. Then if
necessary, make slight adjustments. In general, the carabiner distance should not be set too narrow!
For
fl
ight comfort and safety it is very important that you
fl
y with a suitable, properly adjusted
harness. In practice, it turns out that few pilots have a harness that suits their
fl
ying style and
paraglider. If you have any questions or doubts regarding the use of your harness with the Bolero 7,
please contact a GIN dealer or Gin Gliders directly.
It is a mandatory requirement to carry an approved reserve for use in emergency situations where the
paraglider fails and recovery is not possible, for example after colliding with another aerial sports craft.
In choosing a reserve, you should be careful that you remain within the speci
fi
ed take-off weight. The
reserve is
fi
tted according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
Be sure to
fl
y your glider within the certi
fi
ed weight range given in the Technical Speci
fi
cation section.
The weight refers to take-off weight: pilot, incl. clothing, glider, harness and equipment.
The reactions are quite different at the upper- or lower weight range. If you
fl
y at a high wing-
loading, the glider shows dynamic
fl
ight behaviour with fast reactions. This may be an advantage in
strong wind conditions, but considerable pilot skill is required.
The dynamics are reduced somewhat in the middle and lower part of the weight range.
Your instructor, dealer or a specialist must test-
fl
y and inspect the paraglider before your
fi
rst
fl
ight.
The test-
fl
ight must be recorded on the paraglider information label. Any changes or improper repairs
to this paraglider shall render invalid the certi
fi
cation and warranty.
Carry out your
fi
rst
fl
ights only during stable weather, and in a familiar area or on a training slope.
You should steer gently and carefully to begin with so that you can become accustomed to the
reactions of the glider without stress.
