The
BRONTES

about your wing, or require any additional information, contact your dealer or the

Sky Paragliders
is one of the oldest continually operating manufactures of paragliders
in the world. Our years of experience building a wide range of paragliders were
combined with careful design and testing to produce the
BRONTES.
It offers excellent
glide performance, agile handling, and good passive safety. The
BRONTES
recovers
predictably from collapses and gives the pilot the security and high performance to
enjoy free-flight with confidence and control.
The intent of this manual is to describe the technical specifications and flight
characteristics of the
BRONTES
. This manual is not a substitution for a good
paragliding manual and qualified instruction.
Paragliding is a dangerous sport. It is made safer by good training, pilot judgement
and high quality equipment.
Sky Paragliders
have provided you with the right
equipment. At the time of shipping from the factory your
Sky Paragliders
BRONTES
met the standards of the German Hang/Paragliding Association in category 2 (DHV 2).
All
Sky Paragliders
equipment is subjected to a number of inspections and safety
checks before leaving the factory.
The
BRONTES
is an intermediate paraglider. The
BRONTES
is intended for pilots
who have completed a basic course, and have gained flying experience is a variety of
locations and conditions. The German Hang-gliding Association (DHV) has certified
this glider as “DHV-2”. This means it is for intermediate level pilots. The description
of this class, from DHV is:
Paragliders with demanding flying characteristics and potentially dynamic
reactions to turbulence and pilot errors. Recommended for regularly
flying pilots
.
Your
BRONTES
was built with care using quality materials. It has been carefully
inspected. Unlike many of our competitors, we still flight-test all of our gliders. The
rest is up to you!
Paraglider pilots are responsible for their own safety. YOU assume the risks
associated with flying this paraglider -- not the dealer, importer or the manufacturer.
Alteration of your
BRONTES
paraglider invalidates the warranty and invalidates the
DHV safety certificate.
Fly safe.
