To initiate the B-stall place your fingers between the lines above the maillons on the B risers.
Do not release the brake handles. As you pull the B-lines down the airflow over the wing
is broken and the glider loses its forward speed but remains open and you will descend at
around 6 m/s. If you pull too much B-line the glider may horseshoe and move around a lot.
To exit the B-stall the B-risers should be released symmetrically and in one smooth, fast
progressive motion. The glider will resume normal forward flight without further input. Check
you have forward flight again before using the brakes. Do not release the B lines slowly, this
may lead to a parachutal stall.
Spiral Dives
If you turn your MagMax 2 in a series of tightening 360’s it will enter a spiral dive. This will
result in rapid height loss. To initiate a spiral dive, look to the direction you want to turn
and then smoothly apply the inside brake. The MagMax 2 will first turn almost 360 degrees
before it drops into the spiral (depending on the input). Once in the spiral you should apply
a little outside brake to keep the outer wing tip pressured and inflated. Safe descent rates
are possible but high speeds and high G-forces can build quickly leading to disorientation.
Excessive G forces can lead to loss of consciousness. High descent rates, especially when
combined with high hangpoint power units or trikes, increases the likelihood of the wing
remaining neutral or possibly unstable in spiral. Always be prepared to pilot the wing out of
the spiral using counter brake.
To exit the spiral dive, weight shift away from the direction of rotation and smoothly release
the inside brake. As the MagMax 2 decelerates allow it to continue to turn until enough energy
is lost for it to return to level flight without an excessive climb and surge. Always be prepared
to pilot the wing out of a spiral dive. In case of neutrality/instability use opposite weight shift
and smoothly apply enough outside brake to provoke the glider to exit the spiral.
IMPORTANT
Always be prepared
to pilot the wing out
of a spiral dive. Use
opposite weight shift
and apply enough
outside brake to
stop the wing from
spiralling.
