3. Before you fly

The Gingo II must be assembled by a suitably qualified paragliding professional, for example

your instructor. In particular great care and attention must be paid to the fitting of the rescue

parachute in the harness. The pilot should then adjust the harness for comfort.

Assembly

Gin Gliders recommend that assembly be carried out in the order below. If there is any doubt

whatsoever about this procedure, please seek professional advice from your instructor, GIN

dealer or importer.

Back and Lateral Protection

When you receive the GINSOFT III it may be folded in two. Please let it lay open for several

hours before you install it in the harness. To install it, open the zipper on the opposite side to

the rescue bridle cover and slide the GINSOFT III back protection inside. It needs to slide into

the space underneath the seat plate and behind the back support. Do not put it underneath the

cross straps in the back of the harness. Attach the Velcro tapes to each other, which are on back

of the GINSOFT III and on the inside of the Gingo II. The protection should be not compressed in
normal use and should not hamper the space of the rescue or move into an incorrect position.

You can add lateral protection to the Gingo II by fitting a pair of GIN side impact plates into the

side pockets on the harness, either side of the back protection.
