3. Before you fly

Pre-delivery Inspection

The FLUID is delivered with rucksack/harness, inner bag, compression strap, repair tape and this

manual. Your instructor or dealer should have made a test inflation followed by a test flight

before delivery.

Risers and trims

The front risers of the FLUID are fitted with trimmers that enable the pilot to adapt the glider’s

behaviour according to his level and the chosen slope. Trimming the front risers enables expert

pilots to enjoy a more reactive glider, with greater speed and lower flight angle, to follow the

steepest slopes. Ask for the advice of an instructor specialised in Speedriding in order to better

understand and exploit the trimming system.

Caution : The big trim range on front risers modifies strongly the behaviour of the glider.

Instruction and training, as intense practicing are the keys of mastering the glider in these

extrem configurations.
