Line Over
Emergency flying
If the tip of the wing is trapped in lines it could cause a positive spiral, which is difficult
to control. To get out of this situation, first stabilize your wing and get him into normal
flight. In other words control direction. Than pump on the side of the Line Over. During
this procedure lean on the opposite side, otherwise there is a risk to turn or increase the
spiral.
You also may try to pull the stabilo lines (SR), the outer lines on the blue riser (B), to
free the canopy. Watch out for the brake to avoid a stall on the clean side.
If the Line Over is big and all the counter action does not help and the paramotor
wing is not to manage, release the reserve, whilst you are having height enough.
In case of a brake line crack or the brake line is trapped or anything else happened
and doesn’t allow to use the brakes, use the (D) risers and weight shifting to steer
the glider. Land on the nearest possible side. This situation could happen in case of
poor maintenance of the equipment or an extreme flight situation.
- Attention: the steering commands on C risers are much shorter than on
the brake lines.
- In all extreme collapses remember: switch off the engine or with motor
idling and don´t apply power.

Origami - Method
There are different ways who can help to extend the life of your paramotor wing.
One way is to fold the paramotor wing right. It’s most important to watch out for
the reinforcements to maintain the take off characteristics and the performance.
We are recommending the (Origami Method) and the use of a folding cover (see
below). Together with your paramotor wing you get a traditional pack sack who also
protects your paramotor wing. How to use it we describe after the (Origami Method).
Step 1: Open the folding cover and pull
the partially in. The outside will look like
a cabbage. This way you’re avoiding
that the glider drags over the ground
during folding.
Step 2: Begin with the center of the
trailing edge. Put one profile over the
other. Each side separate.
