Too tight cross bracing increases the probability of a spin with most paragliders!
NEVER DO AN INTENTIONAL SPIN OVER LAND OR IF YOU DON’T HAVE
SUFFICIENT EXPERIENCE!
Wingover:
To induce a wingover the pilot flies consecutive alternating turns to gradually
steepen the angle of bank.
During wingovers with high bank angle, the outside wing begins to unload. Further
increase of the angle of bank must be avoided, for a possible resulting collapse
may be quite dynamic!
WARNING: A TURN WITH MORE THAN A 90 DEGREE ANGLE OF BANK IS
ILLEGAL AEROBATICS!
FULLSTALL, SPIN AND WINGOVER (OVER 908) ARE ILLEGAL. AEROBATIC
MANOEUVRES AND MAY NOT BE PERFORMED DURING NORMAL FLYING.
INCORRECT RECOVERY PROCEDURES OR OVERREACTING OF THE PI-
LOT MAY HAVE DANGEROUS CONSEQUENCES WITH ANY TYPE OF
PARAGLIDER!
Rapid Descents:
Spiral dive:
The spiral dive is the fastest way to lose altitude. As explained previously (see un-
der main section ”Flight” ) they have a rapid descent rate, however, the very high
G-forces make it difficult to sustain a spiral dive for long and it can place high loads
on the pilot and glider. As soon as any, even slight, light headedness or impaired
vision is noticed the spiral should be exited immediately.
If done in strong winds the pilot may drift off course.
NEVER DO BIG EARS IN A SPIRAL!
Big ears:
When doing big ears, the horizontal speed is higher than the sink rate, unlike a
spiral dive or a B- line stall. This rapid descent technique is used to quickly and
horizontally exit a dangerous area into desired direction.
In order to collapse the outside wing, use the „big ears system“.
