ACRO BASE SYSTEM
SUPAIR manufactures its products in Europe. The majority of the components used
come from Europe.
Take-off
Do not release your hands from the toggles when close to the ridge.
In flight
As soon as you are airborne, the behavior is very instinctive and precise.
Please set the distance between the two carabiners according to aerology conditions and to the
wing manufacturer’s recommendations.
Tightening provides more stability but less harness piloting efficiency. Beware of the increased risk
of riser twisting. On the contrary, loosening the strap provides more efficiency but can be danger-
ous in turbulent aerology (increased risk of falling towards the collapsed side of your glider).
Speed-bar use
We recommend a careful use of the speed-bar due to the increased risk a possible frontal col-
lapse. Please carefully read your glider’s operation manual.
To use the speed-bar, maintain one foot on the footrest then with the other, place your foot onto
the centering space and push the first bar.
landing
Straighten yourself in your harness and adopt a running posture to dissipate the horizontal
speed.
Do not land whilst in the seated position, this is dangerous.
Flight phases
Check that you are securely fastened inside your harness with its speed-bar properly connected,
so not to impede your running phase.
