When flying downwind (wind from behind) the best glide is obtained between 0% brake and 10% of brake. is not advisable & it should be released as soon as turbulent air is encountered. The TECNO is a DHV accelerated but using the accelerator system close to the ground Note that the glide angle is not affected by the wing loading, but that the security is.
-- launch Choose an open space free of any obstacles, especially trees and power lines. Open your glider in a slight horseshoe arc (semi-circle) & thoroughly check that you have no knots or line twists. Make sure your helmet is securely fastened & clip into your har- ness making sure all straps are securely fastened.
stronger and sometimes unpredictable and more difficult to handle which can lead to unstable situations such as collapses. There will always be some level of turbulence asso- ciated with thermals. If you progress at a nice steady rate, and keep safe, you will find thermal flying will become a pleasure.
When flying, a front tuck may occur while leaving a strong thermal, or more often while er paraglider & being 'waked' by the wing tip vortices of the glider and turbulence wake using the speed system in turbulent air, or sometimes whilst flying down-wind of anoth- turbulence of the pilot.

enter a spin in this way. Ease off on the inside brake, and weight-shift less hard, to regain level flight. Like this, the pilot can control the bank angle and the sink rate of the glider in the Spiral dive. Always remember that whilst in the Spiral dive you are drifting with the wind, and it is very easy to become disorientated.
We strongly recommend you to have a full inspection of the paraglider by Windtech the distributor at least once a year. Besides this you should check periodically the lines, cloth and stitching.
