lee_d Posted May 22, 2011 Share Posted May 22, 2011 hi all if you had a wing that has an all up weight of 15kg plus more then your body weight to allow for paramotor would it be posable to use this wing without the weight of the paramotor for ground handling regards lee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aquatix Posted May 22, 2011 Share Posted May 22, 2011 Absolutely. Just be cautious of practicing in strong or gusty conditions until you have a good technique in lighter winds, as a big wing can drag you more easily. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
enzo200500 Posted May 22, 2011 Share Posted May 22, 2011 Hi Lee, I've been using my Synth 34 and Phil has been using a Synth 31(?) recently. They can be ground handled quite well, BUT, if locking into a harness always wear a helmet and watch out for the odd gusts!! Be careful and keep hold of the brakes or 'D's at all times.

norbertflyer Posted May 22, 2011 Share Posted May 22, 2011 Learn to control the wing with A's & C's. This is the best method in higher winds. Details from your instructor/friend/dvd/youtube. Richard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
