accelerated flying
You will notice the high performance of the CHILI 2 not only during trim flight, but also
in accelerated glide. When you activate the Speed System, avoid applying too
much pressure, the system operates very effectively and directly. To reach the maxi-
mum speed, push the speed system firmly until both pulleys on the A-risers
touch each other.
If you apply pressure too quickly, the CHILI 2 will dive down forward due to the extreme
change in position. Brake with feel and the glider will quickly accelerate and the
rate of sink from start to highest speed will remain very moderate.
We would like to stress that Pilots should fly only in wind conditions that they are ac-
customed to. Even though the CHILI 2 is extremely stable in accelerated flight, collapse
in turbulence is still possible. In general, the reactions are more impulsive and demand
quicker reaction time from the pilot.
Therefore always use the speed system system with adequate altitude from the
ground, obstacles and other aircraft.
We strongly advise against shortening the brake line length. The total length of
the brake line is necessary particularly in accelerated flight, so that the glider is
not braked, therefore losing massive glide performance.

In case the glider collapses you will have to release the speed system immediately,
in order to stabilise and reopen your paraglider.
landing
The skywalk CHILI 2 can be landed easily.
Make your final approach against the wind and let the glider slow down at its own
speed. Reduce the speed further by applying the brakes lightly and evenly.
At about 1m above the ground you increase the angle of attack by slowing down
more and eventually completely flare out the glider.
