Sand or other Debris

It is especially critical to keep your Reflex glider free from any sand or debris 
that could influence the Reflex profile.  

Transport

This glider is best transported in its own rug sack or stuff sack as sunlight and 
too much heat can affect the equipment adversely.   When not in use, please 
pack your glider and put it in a cool, dark area.  

Storage

All of the equipment should be stored away from light and in a dry, well 
ventilated room and protected from temperature fluctuations.  Rooms or 
garages, where Petrol, solvents, or other chemically aggressive substances are 
stored is unsuitable.  If you will not be flying your Velocity  paraglider for a 
few weeks, we recommend you open the stuff sack and slightly unroll the 
glider to release the tension.  This will circulate air around the glider and 
allow it to breathe.  Should the canopy become wet, spread it out so the air 
can dry all areas.  This is best achieved by laying out the entire canopy.  Even 
if the fabric feels dry, it may NOT be.  The cloth fiber can retain moisture and 
the water takes longer to diffuse out the cloth than it does to evaporate on 
the surface.  Thus, your canopy may feel dry in the evening but may be wet 
again the following morning.  It can take several days for the canopy to dry 
out completely.  This is an essential process and if it is ignored, the material 
will become porous, thereby impeding the efficiency of your glider.

If you should have any questions or concerns about your Velocity Recon 
Gliders, please contant us and we will be happy to assist your.

Enjoy your new glider,
The Team BlackHawk Crew
