IMPORTANT: In normal flight, periodically feel
the position of the rescue handle so that the
action of reaching for the rescue handle is
instinctive in an emergency.
WARNING: During any incident in flight, always
monitor your altitude. If you have any doubt
that you have sufficient height for recovery,
deploy your reserve without hesitation. “If
low, then throw”.
NOTE: After any rescue deployment, it is
essential to have your harness thoroughly
inspected by a qualified professional to
be sure there is no damage to the rescue
connection points, rescue bridle or any other
parts.
 Are all pockets closed properly and any loose items tied down safely?
 Is the air chamber intake open and clear?
 Have you closed your leg and chest straps? Double check before you take off!
Rescue Deployment
In the event of an emergency, you must quickly evaluate your height and the seriousness of the incident.
A seconds hesitation in deploying the reserve could prove fatal if there is insufficient height. On the other
hand, deploying the rescue when the glider is recoverable may result in needless injury.
If you decide to deploy the rescue:
1) Look for the rescue handle and grasp it firmly with one hand
2) Pull forwards and upwards on the handle to release the deployment bag from the rescue container.
3) Look for a clear area, and in a continuous motion, throw (and RELEASE!) the rescue away from
yourself and the glider, preferably into the air stream or against the direction of spin. After deployment,
avoid entanglement and pendulum motions by promptly pulling in the glider as symmetrically as possible
with the B, C, D or brake lines.
4) On landing take an upright body position and be prepared to do a PLF (Parachute Landing Fall) to
minimize the risk of injury.
