3. CERTIFICATION 

Go is EN-A and LTF-A certified in all sizes. 

The EN/LTF certificate for each Go is located on a rib in the middle of canopy. Certification is valid for 
the use with all ABS harnesses. This type of harness allows a certain degree of adjustment to be made 
to the length of the waist strap. Between 40cm (TOW < 80kg), 44cm (80kg < TOW < 100kg) and 48cm 
(TOW > 100kg) - with regard to size of the glider - is the recommended distance between the carabiners. 

In common with all other paragliders, when looser cross-bracing is used while flying the Go, the pilot’s 
weight-shift control is greater. The glider is also more sensitive to the movement in the surrounding 
air. When cross-bracing is tighter, the pilot feels subjectively more stable, however turning by weight-
shift is less effective. 

WARNING: The Go paraglider is only built for hill or tow launching. It is not built to withstand jumping 
from a plane, balloon, building or for any jumps where there is a belated opening of the canopy. Use of 
subsidiary motor (eg paramotoring) has not been tested by the manufacturer or by any other testing 
body.
