Landing
Before the landing the pilot should stand up in the harness and take a ready position. This is
easier when the harness has a shoulder suspension. Shortly before landing the knees should
be bent lightly and the legs should be about the width of the hip apart. After making ground
contact the pilot should roll himself to soften the landing. It is to be minded that the paraglider
stays deformed until the landing so you won’t get pulled into one direction during the landing.
After the landing
After the landing you should deform the rescue parachute in a controlled fashion, by pulling the
middle of the canopy inside at the middle line. Strong wind can otherwise blow up the rescue
parachute after the landing and pull you into one direction. Don’t forget to look for your con-
tainer after the landing. After every landing check-over and re-packing are mandatory! In case
a possible damage to the rescue system cannot be excluded - a complete check-over is neces-
sary before re-packing.
