Active flying

The ALPHA 6 has a very taut and stable

canopy. In normal flying conditions collaps-

es will be almost completely avoided if an

active flying style is employed. This means

always keeping the glider above the pilot -

in other words countering pitch and roll

disturbances.

If the angle of attack increases (e.g. wing

goes back when entering a thermal)

the brakes should be briefly released

completely, until the glider returns to and

remains overyou.

If the angle of attack reduces (e.g. wing

dives forward) the wing should be briefly

and strongly braked. Always make sure

that the airspeed does not fall below a

safe minimum, and avoid overreacting

with the brakes.

If the paraglider collapses on one side

it can be kept flying straight, without

problem, by light opposing brake.
