Summary
Safety is paramount in our sport. To be safe, we must be trained, practised and alert to the
dangers around us. To achieve this we must fly as regularly as we can, ground handle as much
as possible and take a continuous interest in the weather. If you are lacking in any of these
areas you will be exposing yourself to more danger than is necessary.
Respect the environment and look after your flying sites.
If you need to dispose the wing, do so in an environmentally responsible manner. Do not
dispose of it with the normal household waste.
Finally, RESPECT the weather, it has more power than you can ever imagine. Understand what
conditions are right for your level of flying and stay within that window.
Happy flying & enjoy your Speedster 2.

Flying in the Rain
Modern wings are susceptible to rain and moisture, flying with a wet wing can result in the
loss of normal flight.
Due to the efficient, wrinkle-free design of the sail, water tends to bead on the leading
edge causing flow separation. Flow separation will make the wing more prone to entering
inadvertent parachutal stalls, so flying in the rain, or with a wet wing (e.g early morning dew)
should be avoided at all costs.
If you are accidently caught-out in a rain shower, it is best to land immediately. If your wing
becomes wet in the air it is advised to maintain accelerated flight using the speed bar and/
or releasing the trimmers, even during the final approach. DO NOT use big ears as a descent
technique, big ears increases drag, and with a wet wing this will further increase the chances
of a parachutal stall occurring. Instead, lose height with gentle 360’s and maintain your air
speed at all times. If your wing enters parachutal stall when wet, immediately release the
trimmers and accelerate the wing to regain airspeed.
IMPORTANT
Do not fly your wing
when it is wet.
