CAUTION: Be sure your passenger is fully
briefed about any manouvres you intend
to perform.
WARNING: uncoordinated wingovers can
result in large asymmetric collapses or
cravattes. Always make sure you have
sufficient ground clearance and the
necessary skill and experience before
attempting such manoeuvres.
TIP: Make sure your wing is overhead
at the start of your tow. Be careful not
to over-control the wing as it reacts
differently to control inputs when on
tow.
Other modes of flight
SIV / Safety training
During a safety training course, avoid subjecting the materials of your paraglider to excessive
stress. Uncontrolled flight positions may occur which are outside the manufacturer limits of the
paraglider. This may cause a general deterioration in flight characteristics, premature ageing, or
even structural failure.
Aerobatics
Your Fuse is not intended to be used for aerobatics (acro). By engaging in such an activity, you
voluntarily assume an increased risk of injury or death. Aerobatics may also cause premature
ageing of the materials and in the worst case, structural failure.
Wingovers (steeply backed alternating turns)
Wingovers up to 90 degrees angle of bank may be performed by pilots with the appropriate
training.
Towing
The Fuse is suitable for towing using standard towing procedures. Open the trimmers for
towing—this ensures that the glider stays in a more vertical position above the pilot rather than
hanging back.
Tow-release adapters for solo towing are not recommended for tandem towing. Hooking into
the passenger harness main carabiners will result in a more optimal load distribution of the pilot/
passenger weight.
