Spins occur when one side of the canopy stalls. The stalled part of the canopy
continues to fly forward while the other side turns in the opposite direction.
The NAJA showed no tendency to spin, meaning that an unintentional stall is largely
unlikely. During our tests, abruptly pulling a brake down fully from level flight did not
cause a stall either.
If the NAJA should nevertheless start to spin, quickly release the brakes.
Tip
If the spin does not stop:
•
Check whether you have released the brakes fully.
•
If this does not work, use your reserve.
Caution – accident risk.
•
As with all manoeuvres where the canopy is not flying smoothly, under no
circumstances should you accelerate. This could cause the lines to twist.
•
Do not hold onto the brakes.
7. LOOKING AFTER YOUR PARAGLIDER
7.1 Transporting and storing the paraglider
Always transport your paragliding equipment in the special backpack and/or in the inner
bag.
Store all of your paragliding equipment away from UV light in a dry room which is well-
aired and has a constant temperature. Open the backpack and/or inner bag and the belt
a little so that air can get in.
Tip
Ø
Sunlight, warmth and humidity can damage your equipment.
Ø
Temperatures lower than -10°C and higher than 50°C can make the wing unfit
to fly. The manufacturer's warranty will not apply if the paraglider is not stored at
the correct temperature.
Ø
Never store a paraglider which was packed up while still wet.
If the paraglider gets wet, spread it out immediately so that air reaches all parts of it.
Since the fibres absorb water, it can take several days until it is completely dry. If a
paraglider is stored wet, it can become unsuitable for flying after a short time.
