Pre-flight check

Having chosen a place to launch accordingly to the terrain as well

as wind speed and direction clear it of any obstacles that could
damage your canopy or tangle in the lines.

After laying out your paraglider in a horseshoe directed against the

wind following checks must be made:

<

canopy, lines and risers condition. Do not launch if the
slightest damage is noticed,

<

the paraglider should be arranged so that the centre section
A-lines will strain earlier that the outer ones. This ensures
easy and symmetrical launch,

<

the leading edge should stay taut and even,

<

all lines and risers should be separated. Make sure they are
not tangled, and checked against catching anything. It is
equally important to check the brake lines. They must be
firmly attached to the brake handles and run freely through
the pulleys to the trailing edge,

<

make sure the risers are not twisted,

<

it is very important to check that no lines are looped around
the canopy. The so-called ”line-over” may have disastrous

consequences during take off.

<

always put on and fasten your helmet before clipping in to
the harness,

<

make sure that all quick links (maillons) of the risers are tight,

<

Check main carabiners. They must be properly mounted,
closed and locked.
