EXAMPLES:
> In strong winds or below a thundercloud it is possible that neither B- line stall or spiral
dive will help. Big ears are the easy way out.
> If the pilot is stuck in strong lift and needs to look for sink it is advisable to exit the
lift band with the use of big ears.
CAUTION:
ALL DESCENT TECHNIQUES SHOULD BE TRAINED IN CALM AIR CONDITIONS
AND WITH SUFFICIENT ALTITUDE BEFORE USING THEM IN EMERGENCY SITUA-
TIONS AND IN TURBULENT AIR CONDITIONS.
CAREFULLY PACKING YOUR PARAGLIDER WILL INCREASE ITS LONGEVITY.
> Packing your glider precisely guarantees a constant and high level of quality.
> Shake the canopy out gently to remove leaves, grass, sand,etc
> Sort the lines evenly and arrange them on the canopy.
> Make sure that your glider is in dry condition before packing.
> Lay the glider cell upon cell – from the middle of the glider outwards - from the sec-
ond cell, so that the plastic reinforcements of the leading edge lay neatly on top of
one another.
> This gathering method naturally goes faster with two people, one at the leading edge
and one at the end of the glider, but with some practice you will be able to perform-
this task easily.
> Fold over the gathered cloth from the bottom up, pressing the air out as you go fold
the complete cell over once towards the middle
> Repeat the same packing method on the other glider half.
> Now lay both sides on top of one another and make sure that the leading edge rein-
forcements lay neatly on top of one another.
> Fold the cells from the bottom in the direction of the leading edge, the first fold
should have approximately the length from hand to elbow.
> The leading edge can be folded inward once from the upper end, but this is not total-
ly necessary. However, any air remaining inside the glider should be pressed out
> through the leading edge, and not through the material.
