If
we follow good practice, every approach should end
where the
landing
at 100 feet of
altitude, up with the landing target flying into the
wind, flying at half-brakes.
Flying at half-brakes will
allow us to make corrections to increase decrease
glide. DO NOT allow yourself to get into DEEP brakes
w hile
trying to arrest glide.

If an approach is properly planned, it will allow the
to to glide at no than 30-40 feet and
a graceful flare, forward and sink
rate simultaneously, arriving at touchdown with (ideally) no
and no sink rate.

The landing of a ram-air canopy is no different from any
landing in a it consists of arriving
at the landing site with a good glide and carefully
coordinating an increase in angle of (called in this
instance the FLARE) to arrest sink rate.
