Acrobatics - Advance acoustic IOTA 23 User Manual

Acrobatics

While developing the I OTA attention was concentrated on simplicity,
safety and user-friendliness – both in general use and flying behaviour .
Appropriate pilot skill and correct technique are essential in order to
successfully carry out the following manoeuvres - especially in the ex-
panded weight range: Wingovers, Helicopters, Tail Glide, Reversal, SAT
and Asymmetric Spiral . The wing was tested to the usual 8g load fac-
tor, but is not specially strengthened for acro .
Be aware that dynamic manoeuvres put greater loading on the struc-
ture and can shorten the glider's life . This means that a regular check
of the paraglider is essential for your safety . In addition there will be the
special requirements of your country to be observed .
