3. HANDLE WITH CARE

The OMEGA ULS is an ultralight paraglider. The life of this product is highly dependent on your care. Mechanical
stresses such as deep spirals, acro manoeuvers, dragging on the ground etc. accelerate the ageing process and
should be avoided. A lightweight product is much more sensitive to stress of all kinds.
SIV Overloads
We do not recommend using this lightweight product for SIV training. Excessive loading can cause non-safety-
related damage to the product, which is not covered by the ADVANCE guarantee.
