Rucksack
A choice of optional rucksacks are available for your wing. We have a large range suited for many
applications - from large competition bags to accommodate modern competition harnesses to small
lightweight compact designs suited for lightweight harnesses and hike and fly. You can choose from any
of them at the time of order or choose to not take one and re-use your old bag.
Brake Lines
The brake line lengths have been set carefully during testing. We feel it is better to have slightly long brake
lines and to fly with a wrap (one turn of the handle around the hand). However, if you do choose to adjust
their length please keep in mind the following:
• Ensure both main brake lines are of equal length.
• If a brake handle has been removed, check that its line is routed through the pulley when it is replaced.
• When the brakes are fully released in flight, the brake lines should be slack. There must be a substantial
bow in them to guarantee no deformation of the trailing edge when accelerated.
• There must be a minimum of 5-10cm of free play before the brakes begin to deform the trailing edge.
This prevents the trailing edge from being deformed when using the speed system.
Risers
The Swift 6 has been designed with 3 risers per side. The A risers are covered with coloured webbing for
easy identification - the smaller riser, holding only the outermost A line, is for an easier application of big
ears.
The risers feature attachments for a foot operated accelerator system, they do not feature trimmers or any
other adjustable devices.
The Swift 6 features new Active Control Risers (ACR) for full control whilst accelerated. Acting on both
the B and C risers, this new innovative system offers direct, efficient angle of attack control - without
deforming the profile. The intuitive feel and feedback from the risers allows the pilot to increase the solidity
of the wing whilst accelerated in turbulent air.
IMPORTANT
In the unlikely
event of a brake line
snapping in flight, or
a handle becoming
detached, the glider
can be flown by
gently pulling the rear
risers (C-risers) for
directional control.
