9.Flying with the Maki

It is essential that you thoroughly check all equipment before launch.

Pre-flight checks:

Always check the following as part of the pre-flight check:

 Are the harness and the speed system correctly adjusted?

 Are all pockets closed?

 Are the reserve deployment handle and pins in the correct position?

 Are both carabiners properly closed ?

 Are all buckles, belts, zips securely fastened?

 Have you closed your leg and chest straps?

In the event of an emergency, you must quickly evaluate your height and the

seriousness of the incident. A seconds hesitation in deploying the reserve could

prove fatal if there is insufficient height.

If you decide to deploy the rescue:

1- Look for the rescue handle and grasp it firmly with one hand.

2- Pull forwards and upwards on the handle to release the deployment bag from the

rescue container.

3- Look for a clear area, and in a continuous motion, throw the reserve parachute

away from yourself and the glider, preferably into the air stream or against the

direction of spin. After deployment, avoid entanglement and pendulum motions by

promptly pulling in the glider as symmetrically as possible with the B, C, D or brake

lines.

4- On landing take an upright body position and be prepared to do a PLF (Parachute

Landing Fall) to minimize the risk of injury.

The Maki has a spacious back pocket and two little side pockets. The back pocket

can easily hold the paraglider's backpack and much more. There are openings in

upper part of the pocket to lead the drink pipe.
