IMPORTANTUsing the accelerator decreases the angle of attack and makes the wing more prone to collapse, therefore using the accelerator near the ground or in turbulent conditions should be avoided.
NOTEIt is recommended to pilot the wing with the rear risers during accelerated flight.

IMPORTANTOnly a few cms of input from your brakes can maintain your wing in the stall. Always release your wraps if you have taken them!
IMPORTANTA bad preparation on launch, aerobatic flying, flying a wing of too high a level or in conditions too strong for your ability, are the main causes of cravats.
IMPORTANTNever fly in the rain or with a wet glider

IMPORTANT: Do NOT lay the wing flat on the ground before packing the glider, this will cause abrasion damage to the top surface as you pull the glider towards the middle. ALWAYS pack from a mushroom or lift the wing off the ground when gathering the wing and grouping the leading edge.
IMPORTANT: Do not fold the glider in the centre, you will bend the plastics, instead pack the wing with a full concertina method from tip to tip before packing into the stuff sac.
