Information about the various materials used to manufacture the wing
can be viewed in the final pages of this manual.
1.5 ELEMENTS, COMPONENTS
The ROLLER is delivered with a series of accessories that, although
not fundamental, are important in the use, transport and storage of the
paraglider.
- A bag large enough to hold all equipment comfortably and with plenty
of extra space.
- An inner bag to protect the wing from any possible damage during
storage.
- An adjustable folding strap to make the wing as compact as possible.
- A small fabric repair kit with self-adhesive Ripstop nylon.
2. UNPACKING AND ASSEMBLY
2.1 CHOOSING THE RIGHT LOCATION
We recommend unpacking and assembling the wing on a training hill or
a flat clear area without too much wind and free of obstacles. It will help
you to carry out all the recommended steps required to check and inflate
the ROLLER.
We recommend that a qualified instructor is present to supervise the
entire procedure, as only they can address any doubts in a safe and
professional way.
2.2 PROCEDURE
Take the paraglider out of the rucksack, open and unfold it on the ground
with the lines positioned on the undersurface, oriented in the direction of
inflation. Check the condition of the fabric and the lines for defects. Pay
attention to the maillons connecting the lines to the risers to make sure
they are fully closed and tightened. Identify, and if necessary untangle,
the A, B and C-lines, the brake lines and corresponding risers. Make sure
that there are no knots.
2.3 HARNESS ASSEMBLY
The ROLLER risers come with different colours:
- Right side in green
- Left side in red
This feature helps the pilot to better identify each side during the pre-
flight phase and in flight.
Correctly connect the risers to the harness carabiners. The risers and
lines cannot have any twists and must be in the right order. Check that
the harness buckles are properly fastened and securely locked.
2.4 HARNESS TYPE
To have perfect control over the ROLLER, the correct harness choice is
essential.
In addition to the control and comfort during the flight, the choice of a good
ergonomic harness is essential to ensuring both the takeoff and landing are
clean and precise.
The ROLLER can be flown with most types of harness, however, we
recommend a lightweight harness with split leg loops.
At Niviuk we have designed a harness which is perfect for this purpose.
The ROAMER is a reversible harness with ample capacity; it is easy to
carry, with split leg loops, excellent balance and it is responsive to both
