Flight phases

Take-off

Check that you are securely fastened inside your harness with its speed-bar properly connected, so not to impede your running 
phase.
 

Do not release your hands from the toggles when close to the ridge.

In flight

Please set the distance between the two carabiners according to aerology conditions and to the wing manufacturer's recommenda-
tions.

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 dangerous in turbulent aerology (increased risk of falling towards the col-
lapsed side of your glider).

Flight behavior : The 

ACRO3 is a harness specially made for paragliding acrobatics. It is a precis, stiff and reactive, giving you maxi-

mum control during acrobatic figures.
Keep in mind that we want to see you practice this specialty with peace of mind and for as long as possible. The best gear will not 
protect you against over confidence or a cascade of mishaps.

Speed-bar use

We recommend a careful use of the speed-bar due to the increased risk a possible frontal collapse. Please carefully read your glid-
er'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.
