Always check when you are putting away the Swing Spitfire that you have put all of the lines and straps into
the speed bag and that nothing is hanging out which could get caught.
After you have finished speedriding for the day, you can also attach the risers to the strap on the speed bag,
by feeding the strap through the riser loops.

The 10 Safety Rules above should be second nature!
Conduct at skiing areas:
Here are a few important rules which must be followed at all times in skiing areas:
•
First clarify local conditions, e.g. with the lift operator.
•
In general, keep to the side of the slopes when speedriding.
•
If there are designated speedriding areas, then use those.
•
Pack away your Swing Spitfire into the speed bag before you go back to the ski slope.
•
Ensure that you do not get caught up anywhere with the Brave ll or speed bag, so that it does not
interfere with the lift operation. In developing the Brave II and the speed bag, we have taken care that no
unnecessary straps or loops could interfere with the lift or gondola.
•
Never put any third parties at risk, especially skiers.
Please observe these rules so that other speed rider pilots can continue to enjoy the areas too.
Launch preparations
•
Familiarise yourself with the Swing Spitfire before you launch for the first time by carrying out some
practice inflations and trying out some runs on a training slope.
•
Your first runs should take place in a straightforward area which is familiar to you
Launch
It is not necessary to hold the A-risers with the Swing Spitfire…
The first few times you
launch, make sure that both trimmers of the Swing Spitfire are
closed
Landing
After you have landed, simply remain attached, take the speed bag out of the side pocket and pack away the
gathered-up speed rider so that there are no lines hanging out.
Take the speed bag under your arm and make your way back to the lift.
We refer once again to the rules at the start of this section.
