Dangerous situations and extreme fl ying a
Dangerous situations a
Pilot error, extreme wind conditions or turbulence which goes unnoticed by the pilot for too long
may leave the wing in an unusual
fl ying position, requiring special reaction and skills on the part
of the pilot. The best way to learn how to react calmly and correctly in a serious situation is to
attend safety training, where you will learn how to manage extreme situations under the
guidance of a professional.
Ground-training is another safe and effective method of familiarising yourself with your glider’s
reactions. Launch can be practised, as can small
fl ying manoeuvres, such as stall, asymmetric
collapse, front stall etc.
Any pilot who
fl ies in turbulent conditions or who makes an error in handling the glider is at risk
of getting into an extreme situation. All of the extreme fl ight fi gures and fl ight attitudes described
here are dangerous if they are carried out with inadequate knowledge, without the right safety
altitude or without training.
Always keep within the recommended limits. Avoid aerobatics and extreme loading such as
spirals and big ears. This will prevent accidents and avoid overloading the glider.
In turbulent conditions, always keep enough distance from rock faces and other obstacles.
Time and su
ffi cient altitude are needed to recover from extreme situations.

SIV / Safety training a
Due to the advanced design features of the paraglider, collapses incorrectly induced by the pilot
may have more signi
fi cant consequences than collapses which may occur in the course of
normal fl ight (due to turbulence etc.).
Taking part in safety training is in principle advisable in order to familiarise yourself with your
glider and the correct reactions in extreme situations. However, safety training also subjects your
equipment to extreme loads.
! }
During a safety training course, avoid subjecting the materials of your paraglider to excessive
stress. Uncontrolled
fl ight positions may occur which are outside the manufacturer limits of the
paraglider. This may cause premature ageing, or even structural failure.
Stretching of the lines and/or canopy material after safety training can lead to a general
deterioration in
fl ight characteristics.
Damage as a result of safety training is not covered by the warranty.
