Glider user's manual | LEAF2
The following techniques should only be used in emergencies and require prior training to be safely conducted. Appropriate analysis and anticipation
of the conditions will often prevent the need to use fast descent techniques. We will advise you to practice in still air and preferably above water.
Big Ears
Pulling "ears" increases the glider sink rate. We do not recommend the use of big ears close to the ground
In order to pull "ears", grab the specific riser (outer "A" riser) while keeping the toggles in hands and lowering them until the win tips collapse. It is
preferable to collapse one side after the other and not simultaneously in order to prevent an eventual frontal collapse.
Once the "Ears" are folded and stabilized, we will recommend using the accelerator/speedbar to regain your initial horizontal air speed.
To reopen the "Ears", bring the accelerator/speedbar back to its neutral default setting, then let go the risers symmetrically. You can
pump the brake/toggles on either side of the wing to facilitate its reopening sequence.
