Pull sidewards / upwards on the handle to release the deployment bag from the harness

container

Look for a clear area, and in a continuous motion, throw (and RELEASE!) the rescue away

from yourself and the glider, preferably into the air stream and against the direction

of spin

After deployment, avoid entanglement and pendulum motions by pulling in the glider as

symmetrically as possible with the B, C, D or brake lines

On landing take an upright body position and be sure to do a PLF (Parachute Landing Fall)

to minimize the risk of injury

Storage/Pockets

The Gingo II contains a large back pocket and smaller side pockets. They are positioned to

prevent contents from falling out during flight if the pocket is opened. There is also a radio

compartment inside the back pocket and a hole to pass the cable through for a handheld

speaker-microphone or a Camel Bak.

Landing with the Gingo II

Before landing, slide your legs forward in the harness so that you adopt the standing position.

NEVER land in the seated position; it is very dangerous for your back even if you have back

protection. Standing up before landing is an active safety system, and is much more effective
than the passive system of back protection.
