Страница: 19 / 48

Classic (forward) launch
Should be used with little or no wind.
Facing the wind place the risers over your
shoulders (A riser must lay on top).
Clip it into carabiners and lock them. Grip
the brake handles. Due to its outstanding
design, the Run&Fly 2 rises so fast and
easy that pulling the A risers is not
suggested. It can easily lead to a frontal
collapse! The best way is to spread your
hands a bit down and back, with slightly
bent elbows. All risers are to be placed
near the elbows.
With a soft pull check whether the A risers
are the topmost and all the lines are
cleared. For easier orientation the A risers
have a red cover.
Then in fluid movement lean forward and
run, until the canopy rises. Look up and try
to keep it directly over your head. Side drift
is corrected best by moving yourself always
under center of the canopy. In order to
keep wing in the air the suspension lines
must stay taut all the time, so in light winds
you will have to run forward. With stronger
winds you can control the wing while
standing still.
When leaving the ground apply some
brakes, then release it after gaining some
distance from the ground. Keep your hands
relaxed.
Reverse launch
May be used once the pilot feels confident
enough, after groundhandling the canopy
for a couple of hours.
After clipping the risers into carabiners as
for the forward launch, turn back to face
the wing, moving one riser group over your
head. As a consequence, you will have the
risers crossed.
Unclip the brake handles from rear risers
and grip it outside of the risers without
crossing neither arms nor lines. In this way
you steer the left side with you left hand
and vice versa. Make sure that the wing
inflates symmetrically and the lines are not
tangled.
By taking a few steps back you will strain
the risers and consequently get the canopy
up. Dedicated pulling the A risers is not
necessary. When rising, the canopy should
stop over your head on itself without your
intervention. To make sure you have full
control, you can keep the brakes slightly
strained.
When turning into wind, remember to turn
the right way (hint: always do it the same
direction) and to keep the lines strained at
