Manufacturing
All Performance Designs wings are produced in the company’s own facilities, applying the highest quality standards. Each
step of the manufacturing process is handled with extreme care. A stringent quality control is made at each step. For
example, we inspect 100% of all fabric used to build our wings.
4. Before you fly
Pre-delivery Inspection
Your instructor or dealer should have performed a test inflation followed by a test flight before delivery. Please confirm this
has been done before flying the wing.
Risers and trims
We built the Spire to be flown like a high performance parachute, where pulling directly on the rear risers reduces the
airspeed and flattens the glide path. In contrast to other wings on the market, the Spire’s fixed trim is very responsive and
has a high descent rate. Seek the advice of your speedflying instructor to better understand the technique of flying with
the rear risers.
Brake line adjustment and your harness
The main brake line lengths of the Spire have been fine tuned by Performance Designs test pilots, and it should not be
necessary to adjust them.
If you do need to make adjustments to suit your harness, body, and flying style, we strongly recommend that you test fly
the wing with minute
adjustments at a time.
The Spire can be flown with a variety of harnesses. Please consult your dealer or instructor to determine which one is
right for you. Keep in mind that different harnesses have varying riser attachment positions. Any change in the position of
the riser attachments may have a direct effect on brake line length, which could impair you from properly maneuvering the
Spire.
