The possibility of having to use our parachute is very remote, but we must be clear about
the protocol to follow in an emergency. It is even highly recommended to carry out prac-
tices in an approved school and always on the water, having all the security measures
(life jacket, radio and support boat, etc.).

of free fall, base jump or take off on the slope. THIS PARACHUTE IS NOT STEERABLE.
In case of use we must be clear how to do it. Once the parachute has been extracted
from its outer container or from its compartment in the harness (by acting with a stong
and firm pull on the handle) we will find the parachute hanging from our hand inside its
inner container - the next and essential step, to achieve a rapid opening, is to energeti-
cally launch the package in the opposite direction to our direction and always avoiding
throwing it against our paraglider. If we simply drop it, it will cause a more delayed open-
ing, which in case of being close to the ground can be vital.

paraglider "dead" and we can pick it up or release it later.
