Connecting paraglider and harness
Without twisting the risers connect them with the carabiners of the harness. Check if
they are connected and positioned in the right way without any twist. The A riser must
be in front in flight direction.
Check if the carabiners are really looked and closed!
Accelerator
The Runner XC risers are equiped with trimmer, flaps and speed system. It can be used
in different configurations. It’s very important pay attention for the best performance
and safety that you wish.
Most of modern harness have pulleys for assembling the Foot Speed System. The
line must be firmly attached to the stirrup. The other end of the line is fed through
the harness’ pulleys and comes out vertically, and must be firmly attached to the clip
of the quick look.
In order to adjust the Speed System, we suggest that you connect the harness and
the risers, suspended from the ground. Ask a friend to pull the risers (A) upwards. At
this time, adjust the length right to the bar in such way to be easily reachable with
your feet in flight and by stretching the legs, make sure to allow for a clear path to
maximize the accelerator usage.
