Attention:
If you can’t use the brakes for steering the glider you can use the D-risers
instead. (This might be necessary for example, if the brake lines tangled up due
to a bad pre-launch check or less likely, if the main brake line tears).
The ROLLING can be turned quite well with the D-risers combined with
weight shifting. You can also land the glider nice and smooth just with the D-
risers. Don’t pull the D-risers too much, to avoid a deep stall!
Landing
Landing the ROLLING is very easy. In turbulent conditions we recommend
applying brakes (approximately 20% of the available brake travel) during the
whole approach. This will increase the stability of the glider and the feeling of
the wing.
Just before touch down you should apply more brake. Many times it makes
sense to induce a stall.
Attention:
A deep stall in just 2 meters height can cause a quite violent touch down. Make
sure to not fully apply the brakes until you are close enough to the ground.
Manoeuvres for fast decent
Big ears
For initiating Big ears, pull the outer A lower lines. Keep the brake handles
(without extra wraps) in your hands.
As long as you keep both outer A-lines pulled, the wingtips will be folded and
the sink speed will increase. We recommend to additionally push the speed bar
to increase the sink speed further and to also increase forward speed. The drag
of the folded wingtips increases the angle of attack. By pushing the speed bar,
this effect is compensated.
To end the manoeuvre, release the A-lines. If the wingtips don’t open
automatically, you can inflate them by applying the brakes with a short impulse
movement.
