Check-List - Pre-Flight-Check - Airdesign eazy superlight Betriebshandbuch

The lines and risers should be sorted carefully. Check that the risers are not twisted and that
the brake lines are running free. All lines must run from riser to canopy free from tangles or
knots – during flight it is often not possible to release knots in lines.
Lines lay directly in contact with the ground. Therefore, take care that they don't get caught or
snagged during take-off.
No lines should be underneath the canopy, line-overs can cause accidents.
The canopy should be laid out in a circular shape facing the wind so that all lines become
tensioned evenly when inflating.
ATTENTION: NEVER TAKE OFF (START) WITH OPEN KARABINAS!
