CARE AND MAINTENANCE

Packing
To prolong the life of your wing and to keep the plastic reinforcements in the best possible condition it is very
important to pack the wing carefully. We recommend to use the concertina packing method exactly as shown so that
all of the cells rest alongside each other and the plastic reinforcements are not unnecessarily bent. It is also good
practice to use the supplied inflatable folding pillow to reduce the angle of the leading edge fold, this will help to
preserve the plastic reinforcements. The folding pillow can be deflated and carried in your harness. Using the Ozone
Concerto pack will help preserve the life of the wing and aid with the speed and ease of packing.
Step 1. Lay the mushroomed wing on the ground or on the
Concerto pack if you are using one. It is best to start from the
mushroomed position as this reduces the dragging of the leading
edge across the ground.
Step 2. Group leading edge (LE) plastic reinforcements with the A tabs roughly
aligned. Make sure the plastic reinforcements lay side by side. Note the glider is
NOT folded in half; it is folded as a complete concertina from wing tip to wing tip.
