Skywalk Mescal 4, Instruction Manual, Page: 55 / 68

tHe ParacHutal Stall:
The paraglider has no forward speed and a greatly increased descent rate. The Para-
chutal Stall may follow a too passively released B-line Stall. Porous canopy fabric (ex-
cessive UV-degradation) or frequent, strong towing (stretched A-lines) results in an in-
creased risk of a Parachutal Stall. The pilot can recover from the Parachutal Stall by
slightly pushing the A-risers forward at the mallions or by using the accelerator. The
skywalk MESCAL4 usually exits the Parachutal Stall automatically.
