Your new paraglider is an advanced, stable glider that promises many hours of safe and enjoyable flying, provided
you treat it with care and always respect the potential dangers of aviation.
Please always remember that flying can be dangerous and your safety depends on you. With careful treatment your
wing should last for many years. It has been tested under current international airworthiness standards, and these
represent the current knowledge concerning the safety of a glider. However, since there are still many unknown
issues, for example the effective lifespan of the current generation of gliders and how strong the material aging can
be accepted without affecting the airworthiness. There are natural forces that can threaten your safety, regardless of
the quality of construction or the condition of your glider. Your security is ultimately your responsibility. We strongly
recommend that you fly carefully, adapt to the weather conditions and keep your safety in mind. Flying in a club or
a school with experienced pilots is highly recommended. We recommend that you fly with a standard harness with
back protection and a reserve parachute. Always use good equipment and an approved helmet.
See you in the sky!
