Brake line adjustment
The main brake line lengths of the Nano 2010 are the same as on the sample that has been used
by the GIN R&D team. These line lengths have been fine tuned by GIN test pilots, and it should
not be necessary to adjust them.
If you do need to make adjustments to suit your harness, body and flying style, we strongly
recommend that you test fly the glider with every 2cm of adjustment. There should be a
minimum of 10cm of free brake travel when the glider is flown hands-off. We recommend a
double sheepshank or a bowline knot for the brake handle attachment as shown in the diagram.
Rucksack
The NANO 2010 is delivered with the rucksack/harness SPEEDRIDER, especially designed for
ergonomic carrying comfort and ease of use.
Your Harness
The NANO 2010 was developed with the SPEEDRIDER harness specific to Speedriding. Before
using your glider with any other type of harness, please contact the harnesses’ manufacturer or
dealer should you have any question regarding its use.
Adjusting the chest belt controls the distance between the carabiners of the two risers, which
also has an influence on the glider’s behaviour.
There is no need to use the NANO 2010 with a tight chest belt adjustment, as there is no
tendency to feel unstable.
