tips and tricks for cloth Handling:
in order to care for and ensure the continued performance of your glider and this spe-
cial high performance cloth, it is imperative that you adhere to the following guidelines
1. Avoid any unnecessary exposure to sun or weathering. During launch, do not lay the
glider on the ground for long periods of time, and always pack it up right afterlanding.
2. Any rubbing or abrasion will lead to cloth damage, so be sure not to drag the cloth
on the ground.
3. Lay the glider cell upon cell, but please avoid tightly squeezing or tightly folding the
glider together.
4. Always store the risers in the protective casing provided for this use.
5. Never bring the cloth into contact with saltwater, the metallic content may react-
with the saltwater and lead to corrosion. if the glider does happen to come into
contact with saltwater, please rinse it with ample amounts of fresh water and then
carefully and thoroughly dry it.

General infOrMatiOn:

When unfolding the paraglider insure that neither the canopy nor the lines become too
dirty as dirt particles in the fibres can damage the material and lines. if the lines get
tangled on the ground they may be over-stretched or break during take-off.
> Do not step on the lines and/or canopy.
> Make sure that no sand, stones or snow get inside the canopy as the extra weight
collected in the trailing edge may slow down or even stall the glider.
> Sharp edges damage the canopy.
> uncontrolled inflation attempts in strong winds may result in the glider impacting into
the ground at high speed. This can cause rips, damage on lines and/or fabric.
> Make sure not to land your canopy leading edge first as this may cause permanent-
Damage to this area of your paraglider.
> After landings in trees or on water you should check the length of the lines.
> After contact with salt water thoroughly rinse the equipment with fresh water!
