d) Then starting from the harness at the trailing edge, roll up the canopy squeezing out all
the air at the same time.
e) The rolled canopy will now fit neatly into its bag.
Storage & Care
a) If you ahve to pack away your canopy wet, do not leave it for more than a few hours in
that condition. As soon as possible dry out the canopy. Do not use direct heat sources to dry
canopy as it is inflammable.
b) Always store the canopy in a dry warm place. Ideally this should be in the temperature
range of 5 to 3 degrees centigrade.
c) Never let your canopy freeze, particularly if is damp.
d) The Sport is made from high quality nylon which is treated against weakening from Ultra
Violet radiation. However it is always wise to minimise the exposure to U.V. radiation as this
weakens the fabric of the canopy, and long exposure to harsh sunlight can severely
compromise the safety of your canopy. Therefore once you have finished flying put away
your canopy. Do not leave it laying in strong sunshine unnecessarily.
If you are concerned about any aspect of the integrity of your paraglider please contact your
nearest Airwave dealer or talk to Airwave direct.
e) Do not treat your canopy with chemical cleaners or solvents. If you must wash your chute
use warm water and a little soap. If your canopy gets wet in sea water, wash it with warm
water and carefully dry it.
f) Small tears in the top or bottom surface (not normally the ribs) of a canopy can be
repaired with a patch of selfadhesive spinnaker nylon.
Tears no longer than 100 mm can be repaired in this way providing they are not in a high
stress area. If you ahve any doubt about the airworthiness of your canopy please contact
your dealer or Airwave directly.
Servicing
It is important to have your glider regularly serviced.
Your Sport should have a thorough check every year or every 200 flights, which ever is the
earliest. Airwave offers an inspection service every winter. This is a comprehensive service
which checks line lenghts and strenght, fabric porosity and tear strenght and a variety o f
other tests and we strongly advise all pilots to take advantage of this.
Please ensure you return this manual with your glider with the number of flights and hours
flown written in the Certificate of Service.
NB. The manufacturer will only accept responsibility for paraglider lines and repairs where the
manufacturer has produced and fitted such lines or carried out repairs.
See you in the sky!
