    1.4 ASSEMBLY, MATERIALS Any modification of the paraglider invalidates the certification. The DOBERMANN 2 has all the technological innovations used on other Note that each wing size can behave differently during the same Niviuk gliders which are designed to enhance the pilot’s comfort and to manoeuvre depending on its all-up weight.
  • Page 5 All Niviuk gliders go through an extremely thorough and detailed final autonomy and higher overall motor efficiency. The RSP profile improves inspection.

UNPACKING AND ASSEMBLY The DOBERMANN 2 can be flown with most harnesses on the market. 2.1 CHOOSING THE RIGHT LOCATION The distance/comfort bar will determine the distance between the carabiners. Incorrect chest strap adjustments can affect glider/harness We recommend unpacking and assembling the wing on a training hill or behaviour and thus glider handling.

    Pull on this line until it is taught, as it should help undo the cravat. If ineffective, fly down to the nearest possible landing spot, control the If, for any reason at all, the DOBERMANN 2’s brake lines become trajectory with both weight shift and the use of the brake opposite to the disabled in flight, piloting the wing with the D-risers and weight shifting tangled side.

    To start the manoeuvre, first weight shift and pull the brake handle located on the inner side of the turn. The intensity of the turn can be Although the DOBERMANN 2 was tested by expert acrobatic pilots in controlled by braking slightly using the outer brake handle.
