Is the deployment handle correctly inserted or attached?

Are all buckles, belts, zips securely fastened? Buckles should click into place as you close

them, and a gentle pull on the fastened buckle veriﬁes this. Secure any zips after fastening the

buckles. Take extra care in snowy or sandy environments.

Is the paraglider connected correctly to the harness with both carabiners secured by

their locking mechanisms?

Is the speed bar is attached correctly to the glider?

Are all pockets closed properly and any loose items tied down safely?

Is the air chamber intake open and clear?

Have you closed your leg and chest straps? Double check before you take off!

Rescue Deployment

In the event of an emergency, you must quickly evaluate your height and the seriousness of the

incident. A second’s hesitation in deploying the reserve could prove fatal if there is insufﬁcient

height. On the other hand, deploying the rescue when the glider is recoverable may result in

needless injury.

If you decide to deploy the rescue:

Look for the rescue handle and grasp it ﬁrmly with one hand

Pull sideward and upwards on the handle to release the deployment bag from the harness

container

Look for a clear area, and in a continuous motion, throw (and RELEASE!) the rescue away

from yourself and the glider, preferably into the air stream or against the direction of spin. After

IMPORTANT: In normal ﬂight, periodically

feel the position of the rescue handle

so that the action of reaching for

the rescue handle is instinctive in an

emergency.

WARNING: During any incident in ﬂight,

always monitor your altitude. If you

have any doubt that you have sufﬁcient

height for recovery, deploy your

reserve without hesitation. “If low, then

throw”.
