Storage/Pockets
The X-Dreamer contains a large dorsal storage pocket with additional inside pocket for
drink system. Inside mesh pocket on right side is open and is featured with an inside
loop for camera. The left side pocket is accessible from the outside and is equipped with
a zipper. There is also an inside loop for the camera.
Landing with X-Dreamer
Before landing the pilot pushes the hips and legs forward. He will slip forward on the
seat and can take an upright standing position for a proper landing. NEVER land in a
sitting position!
It is very dangerous for your back even if you have back protection. Standing up before
landing is an active safety system and is much more effective than the passive system
of back protection.
Miscellaneous
Towing
The X-Dreamer is suitable for towing. The tow release system may only be connected to
the main carabiners. Read the instructions in the user manual for your tow release and
the tow adapter. If you are in any doubt you should always consult the winch driver or
someone authorised by the manufacturer.
Tandem flying
Because of its size the X-Dreamer is not suitable for tandem flying - either for pilot or
passenger.
Flying over water
In general, a high caution is advised when flying over water. By an unintentional water
landing without a life jacket, the harness buckles must be unfastened immediately and
the harness taken off. Otherwise the risk of drowning is very high.
During SIV safety training the foam back protector should be removed from the harness
otherwise it would float and turn the pilot face down under water. Wearing a lifejacket is
essential during SIV training.
Behaviour in the nature and preservation of flying site
Please observe the local rules at the respective flying site which you use. This is
important not to endanger the preservation of flying sites which are necessary to
maintain the possibility to execute our beautiful sport.
