Lines
The lines are made of Aramide and are known for its high grade of
resistance and low stretching overtime.
-1,1 mm Cousin - Surpassed its resistance exceeding 80 kgs (175 lbs).
These lines are located at the upper section of the gallery, and makes for
the majority of lines on the paraglider.
-1,5 mm Cousin - Surpassed its resistance exceeding 120 kgs (264 lbs).
These lines are located at the middle section of the gallery.
-2,1 mm Cousin - Surpassed its resistance exceeding 160 kgs (352 lbs).
These lines are located at the bottom section, and are connected to the
risers.

All components are of the highest grade and were selected with the
long-term durability of your equipment in mind.
Reinforcements
Mylar laminated reinforcement. Selected to improve long term durability.
Its function is to maintain the main shape and attitude of attack, without
sacrificing your paraglider's characteristics during takeoff and flight.

The
lines consist of a beige Technora Core of high resistance to
tension and has low distortion rate, covered by a layer of colored polyester.
The set is made of individual lines, with sewn ties on both extremities.

SUSPENSION SYSTEM
The main bottom lines and the braking master lines are 1,5 mm and 2,1 mm
in diameter respectively. The upper lines are 1,1 mm and 1,5 mm in diameter.
The upper lines distinguish themselves (next to the inside layer) and the
main lines, which are connected to the Quick Links. These, in turn connect
to the main lines on the risers. The stabilizers' lines are connected to the
same Quick Links.
The brake lines come out of the trailing edge, through the master line and
are linked to the toggles, passing through a pulley attached to the 'D' riser.
Lines 'A' and the brake lines are of different color in order to facilitate
takeoff preparation. The Quick Links are triangular shaped and are made
of inox resin.
On the brakes' master lines, there is a mark at the ideal setting point, at
which height the toggles are affixed. This setting should not be altered as
it ensures adequate and sufficient path and room for the toggles in case of
emergency situations during flight and landing. Further more, in this
position the paraglider is not constantly on a stall.
Warning:
In the event of one or more brake lines get stuck during flight, or if a
toggle is lost due to a line brake, the canopy can still be flown by
applying gentle pulling of the D risers, therefore controlling directional
changes.
SPEED SYSTEM
The Speed System works on the risers 'A', 'A1', 'B' e 'C'. When set at the
normal position, all risers have the same length: 52,5cm.
The
allows for a Foot Speed System installation. It has 5
risers on each side, with the 'A' lines attached to the 'A' riser. The riser 'A1'
is turned to the tabs. The 'B' lines and the stabilizer are attached to the 'B'
riser. Lines 'C' are attached to riser 'C' and lines 'D' are attached to riser 'D',

additionally to the brake pulley support.
When the Speed System is activated, it shortens the risers 'A' and 'A1' by
15cm, riser 'B' by 12cm and riser 'C' by 6cm. The riser 'D' remains in its
original position.
