11. ENJOY YOUR FLYING 

Even though Go has outstanding performance and stability, it must be understood that even the safest 
paraglider is an aircraft and that all air sports can be relatively dangerous.  

Remember that your safety lies in your own hands and that it is always your responsibility to be well 
prepared. 

Never underestimate weather conditions. And never forget that you are flying for pleasure and not to 
become a ‘fallen hero’. Remember this and the fun that only free-flying can bring will be yours. 

We believe that your sensible attitude and the flight characteristics of your Go will combine to ensure 
you have many hours of fantastic flying. 

For all our gliders we use Porcher materials which are made under environmental laws of the EU and 
all the coating is environmentally friendly.  

When your glider gets to the end of its life we recommend to use Porcher recycling Program to dispose 
it.  

GRADIENT wishes you many fabulous flights and happy landings.
