Pilot target group

The RIDE is a tandem paraglider. You must be in possession of the appropriate licence and
insurances to fly with passengers.
LTF and EN category
The AirDesign RIDE has been classified as EN-B and LTF-B.
The glider has been type-tested for "two-seated" use.
Suitability for training
The AIRDESIGN RIDE is NOT suitable for training or use in the school environment.
Recommended weight range
The RIDE must only be flown within the certified weight range as stated in the technical data
under section 3. The take-off weight includes pilot plus passenger, clothing, glider, harness,
equipment etc.
The RIDE reacts to a variation in loading with a reduction or increase of trim-speed. The
performance remains more or less the same.
When flying at the lower weight range we recommend opening the trimmers a little. When
flying at the maximum load the trimmers can be closed negative to adjust speed and brake
pressure.
