The wing will slowly start to lose speed until the wing completely collapses.
The wing will shoot back suddenly. In spite of this unpleasant sensation, both brake
lines should be continued to be held down, until the wing has a chance to stabilize
itself above you.
The skywalk SCOTCH.HY will fly backwards and most often form a Rosette (backwards
U Form) bending towards the front.
In order to reopen your wing after the full stall, you should release the brake lines
symettrically upwards, (time interval of more than or equal to 1 second). The wing will
begin to open, occilating forwards some before it recovers into full flight.
Through a symettric holding of the brakes, you will hinder or minimalize the tendency
of the wing to shoot forward.
In the event that the Pilot does not apply the brakes, the skywalk SCOTCH.HY will shoot
forward marginally, where a possible front stall collapse of the wing could happen.

Spin
A wing can turn negatively into a spin, when the airflow is lost over one side of
the wing surface.
In this event the wing cap turns on the horizontal axis inside the wingspan. The inside
wingspan then flies backwards.
There are 2 possible Causes for a Spin.
The brake lines are pulled down to quickly and to hard, (as in entering a
steep spiral manuever).
In very slow flight when the brakes are applied to strongly on one side, for example
when entering into a thermal or when a pilot applies the brakes to hard when flying with
a motor or (while trying to compensate for torque).
In the event of an unwanted negative curve the pilot should release his brakes so that
the skywalk SCOTCH.HY can recover into normal flight without much loss of altitude.
The brake lines are released to the point that the air flow starts to recover over the
