How to Replace a Paraglider Line

As part of a normal pre-flight inspection, this should ALWAYS include examining all glider lines. If you find a line has been frayed, the outer sheath is damaged, or the line is broken, this video will provide a visual aid in replacing the line. If you have any questions about this process, make sure to talk to a Certified Flight Instructor or glider repair expert. Replacing a line must be done correctly and match the original standards set by the glider manufacturer. Repairing or replacing a line improperly can cause the glider to not perform as intended, or can cause serious injury and even death.

The truth is – modern gliders do not like to be jammed in a bag in a careless way. If you’re flying anything that uses a rigid structure to assist in holding the leading edge open – this Motor Minute is for you! Team Fly Halo tests and flies all of the top gear, and this is the way we’ve found to best store our favorite gliders for loose transport.

Shane shows us how to quickly prepare a modern glider for “stuffing” into a stuff sack, by indexing each cell and protecting them in the center of the bag. This can ensure that you’re not inadvertently deforming your high-performance glider’s all-too-important profile, thus preserving it’s efficiency and performance. http://flyhalo.com
