Page 13: End Of Flight
Towing The EONA 3 wing can be towed up. Fly only with certified gear operated by qualified personal and only after taking a towing clinic.

Page 14: Fast Descents
Glider user's manual | EONA 3 Fast Descents The following techniques should only be used in emergencies and require prior training. Appropriate analysis and anticipation of the conditions will often prevent the need to use fast descent techniques. We advise you to practice in still air and preferably above water. - Page 15 To prevent stressing we do not recommend combining spiral dives with "Ears". Conforming to the EN A, the EONA 3 glider does not show any tendency to stay in a locked spiral configuration and will return by itself to a normal flying angle in less than two full rotations when the toggles/brakes are brought back up.

Glider user's manual | EONA 3 Incidents de vol Stall This technique is not recommended as it requires intense physical impute. It is not a safe descent technique. Asymmetric collapses Any paraglider may occasionally collapse due to turbulence or a piloting error.
