The paraglider has no forward momentum combined with a high descent rate.
A parachutal stall is caused, among other reasons, by a too slowly exited B-
stall or severe turbulence.
Porous canopies or canopies out of trim (stretched or shrunken lines) are
much more susceptible to a parachutal stall and therefore should not be flown.
These are some of the reasons regular checks should be carried out on your
glider.
The NOVA IBEX generally is self recovering from parachutal stall. If the canopy
remains in a parachutal stall, it is sufficient to gently push both A risers forward
or to push the accelerator.
WARNING: IF BRAKES ARE APPLIED WHILE IN A PARACHUTAL STALL,
THE GLIDER MAY SUDDENLY ENTER A FULL STALL.
In close proximity to the ground, due to the forward surging pendulum effect, a
recovery may be more dangerous than a hard landing in parachutal. If landing
in a parachutal stall, the pilot should prepare for a hard landing and make a
parachute roll landing.
Full stall:
To induce a full stall, apply full brake on both sides.
The glider slows down steadily until it stalls completely. The canopy suddenly
surges backwards a long way. In spite of this uncomfortable reaction of the
canopy, both brake lines must be consequently held down with all your
strength until the canopy is stabilized (directly overhead).
The NOVA IBEX generally flies backwards during a full stall but doesn’t always
form a front rosette.
A frontal rosette can be formed by entering the full stall slowly. When entering
(braking) fast, the canopy will not always form the desired front rosette.
ALWAYS APPLY BOTH BRAKES EVENLY!
To recover from a full stall, both brakes must be let up symmetrically at a fast
to moderate speed (within 1 second).
The NOVA IBEX surges forward a moderate amount after recovering from a full
stall, whereby a resulting front collapse is possible. Gentle symmetrical brak-
ing as soon as the wing begins to move forward is recommended. If the pilot
does not brake the canopy, the NOVA IBEX surges forward to 90° angel. In the
worst case a big collapse will follow.
An ”asymmetric” recovery (one control released faster than the other) from a
full stall can cause a big dynamic collapse.
