D. Flying techniques
The METIS 2 is flown conventionally however there are several points listed below which
should allow you to familiarise yourself with your new paraglider more quickly.
1. Checking the paraglider before take off
• Check the wing: Check it is not torn and that the internal structure (ribbing) is not damaged.
• Check the lines: Check they are not damaged or tangled.
• Check the quick links: Check that the quick links which link the lines to the risers,
are correctly tightened and undamaged.
Check the risers:
• Check they are not damaged or twisted.
• Check the speed system works freely and that the lines are long enough to ensure
that the accelerator system is not permanently on.
• Lastly, check that the brake handles are correctly attached and that each brake line runs
freely in its pulley.
