bignos Posted October 28, 2008 Share Posted October 28, 2008 Hi, Im new to winter flying and was wondering how to deal with getting a damp or wet canopy. it seems to me that when i land the wing will always be lying on the frosty or damp grass, so when i pack it it will go mouldy What do i do??

Guest Posted October 28, 2008 Share Posted October 28, 2008 If you are storing it for 2 days or more you MUST dry it. The best way to dry them is to leave a rosed up wing in your living room over night. SW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bignos Posted October 29, 2008 Author Share Posted October 29, 2008 bump so i dont actually have to spread it out? What is the best gear to buy for winter flying?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 Colin and I have just had this exact conversation. I have just ordered myself some Gin Winter Alpine Gloves (here tomorrow) They are £40 in the shop reduced from £50.... Marketed as the warmest paramotor gloves on the market! Which is why I picked them.. That and a mate up north has a pair and says they are amazing.... I also use the Gin Winter flying suit (all year round). Gloves is the main one! get the warmest ones you can The best flying weather is to be had in the winter!!! Just get good kit and keep warm.
