lead to an irreversible stretching of the lines.
Avoid over bending of the lines at the same point, that may lead to damage.
Every form of visual damage to the lines, even when the damage is only to the outer
sheaf, requires a line replacement.
Replacing a line requires that you contact a skywalk authorized service center to make
sure that the line is replaced correctly.
Your school, or dealer can help you with this task. Before you change a line, be sure
to check it to make sure that you have the correct length, by comparing it to the same
line on the other wing half.
You should also test fly the wing on the ground first, after any line replacement, to
insure its proper function.
general Tips:
When laying out your wing inspect your wing cloth material and lines to make sure >
they are not dirty. Dirt, sand, etc. can collect in the fibers of the material, damaging
them and causing shrinkage.
If your lines are entangled with debris, rocks, roots, etc. and are not free when laun-
ching, this may cause overstretching or tearing of the lines.
Don’t step on your lines.
>
Pay attention when starting to make sure your wing cap does not have any snow, >
sand, pebbles or rocks in the chambers, as this material can all end up at the back
edge of your wing and slow it to the point of stall.
Sharp edges, stones etc. can injure your cap material.
>
When launching your wing in strong winds, note that the inflated wing can crash back >
onto the ground. This can lead to damage of the wing profile, or generally damage
the cloth and stitching.
When landing don’t allow your wing to crash forward onto the ground over you, as
>
this can lead to damage of the material in the wing nose area.
After every tree landing, or landing in water, check the lines and material for
>
damage.
After contact with any type of salt water, you must immediately rinse the complete
>
wing and riser with fresh water.
A complete current list or diagram of your lines should be included with the delivery
>
of your wing and Handbook, or can be requested from your dealer, flight school, or
skywalk directly.
