🔹 Key Brake Tips:

Feel for tension, not resistance
Use symmetrical inputs for stalls, but adjust asymmetrically for SAT entries
Brake travel is longer—use the full range intentionally
Never grab too deep too quickly—understand feedback first

3. Stalls, Spins & Surge Control

Where Control Meets Chaos

Understanding stall mechanics is essential. The Moustache responds clearly in deep brake zones, offering reliable stall entries and clean re-inflation.flae

✈️ Drills for Control:

Full Stall – Pull evenly, hold 3–5 sec, release smoothly
Dynamic Stall – Enter fast, release gradually to feel surge energy
Spin Entry – Pull deep inside brake while weight shifting in
Spin Recovery – Release inner brake, shift weight out, re-center
Surge Harnessing – Fly the surge, don’t fight it. Let the wing pitch forward with control

⚠️ Train these drills over water with an SIV instructor or experienced coach present.

4. Helicopters & Rhythmic SATs

The Soul of Acro Flying

Helicos demand balance—between brake input, weight shift, and timing. The Moustache excels here, offering symmetrical stalls and smooth transitions.

🔸 Helico Progression:

Asymmetric SAT – Entry with inside brake and aggressive weight
Spin Entry into Helico – Controlled deep stall followed by tight rotation
Establish Rhythmic Motion – Let the wing sink evenly with spiraling motion
Exit – Slowly release brake, shift weight outward, neutralize

🔹 Rhythmic SAT Tips:

Use consistent tempo and timing
Lead with your body—not your hands
Visualize pendulum movement between each pitch
Listen to the wing: sound and vibration offer real-time feedback

5. Combo Linking: Flow Like a Pro

Acro paragliding offers unmatched freedom, adrenaline, and creativity. However, pushing the limits of performance must always be grounded in safety. Whether you’re practicing stalls or linking helicos into rhythmic combos, the Flare Moustache gives you the tools to fly confidently—but only if you follow best practices.

This Safety Guide is your go-to companion for understanding the risks, respecting the equipment, and maximizing your progression without compromising your well-being.

1. Pilot Skill Requirements

Not a Beginner Wing

The Flare Moustache is designed for experienced acro pilots. It is not suitable for beginners or pilots new to dynamic maneuvers. Before flying this wing, you should already be proficient in:

Controlled wingovers
Deep stalls
SATs and asymmetric maneuvers
Spins and early-stage helicopters
Advanced recovery techniques

⚠️ Always progress step-by-step. Never attempt advanced maneuvers without proper instruction and safety backup.

2. Pre-Flight Inspection Checklist

Know Before You Go

Every acro flight starts on the ground. A thorough pre-flight inspection ensures your glider is ready to handle the demands you place on it.

✅ Inspection Points:

Lines – Check for knots, frays, or line shrinkage
Risers – Confirm brake lengths, riser symmetry, and connector integrity
Canopy Fabric – Look for tears, holes, or signs of wear on the top and bottom surfaces
Internal Ribs and Reinforcements – Visually inspect for deformations or stress points through the cells
Stitching and Seams – Scan trailing edges, stabilos, and risers for broken threads
Brake System – Test free movement and proper tension without slack

✳️ Use UV-protected covers and dry storage to preserve your gear between flights.

3. Launch & Landing Safety

Controlled Starts—Predictable Finishes

Even the most skilled pilot can make avoidable mistakes during launch or landing. Acro gear behaves differently than cross-country gliders.

🔹 Takeoff Tips:

Use clean airflow without rotor or turbulence
Avoid reverse launches in strong wind—keep the glider overhead with brake control
Watch for asymmetric inflation on steeper takeoff slopes
Double-check riser connection and brake configuration

🔹 Landing Tips:

Reserve energy for a clean flare at the right moment
Don’t over-brake during approach—manage descent rate actively
Avoid landing in restricted or uneven terrain
Always allow margin for error when exiting combos before descent

4. In-Flight Safety Protocols

Maneuver with Mindfulness

Executing acro maneuvers at altitude requires more than just physical skill—it demands mental clarity, situational awareness, and risk management.

🔸 pilot mustache General Flight Rules:

Never fly below reserve deployment height while performing maneuvers
Know your altitude at all times—especially when practicing stalls or spins
Avoid high G-forces for extended periods to reduce risk of blackout
Plan your exit paths before initiating a maneuver
Stay within glider load limits for weight and wind conditions

🔸 pilot mustache Emergency Recovery Best Practices:

Cascading Stall – Apply full brakes to re-stall, then release symmetrically
Cravat – Use opposite brake and riser input; avoid panic spirals
Spin – Release inside brake, weight shift out, and let the glider regain pressure
Line Twists – Kick and twist while maintaining glider pressure; deploy reserve if unresolved

5. pilot mustache Reserve Parachute Usage

Your Lifeline—Keep It Ready

In acro flying, a properly maintained and easily accessible reserve parachute can be the difference between a scare and a tragedy.

✅ Reserve Deployment Tips:

Mount on your chest or side—never below your seat
Ensure you can reach and pull cleanly with either hand
Practice mock deployments on the ground regularly
Keep repacks on a 6-month cycle, or sooner in humid environments
Replace bridles and handles after heavy use or any deployment

🪂 If in doubt—throw it out. You can always pack a reserve again. You can’t rewind time.

6. Altitude Management

Airspace = Safety Space

Altitude gives you options. It’s your biggest safety buffer during acro training. Avoid flying too low, too close to terrain, or in unfamiliar airspace.

🏔️ Maintain Safety Margins:

Minimum height for helicos: 400 meters AGL
Minimum height for stalls/spins: 600 meters AGL
Minimum deployment height for reserve: 250 meters AGL
Avoid clouds, thermals, and wind shear when practicing maneuvers
Know local airspace restrictions and no-fly zones

7. Weather Awareness

Choose Your Skies Wisely

Even advanced gliders like the Flare Moustache can’t compensate for bad weather decisions. Acro gliders respond very differently under gusty or thermic conditions.

☀️ Ideal Conditions:

Wind speeds between 5–15 km/h
Laminar flow with minimal turbulence
No strong thermals or gust fronts
Clear visibility and low humidity

⚠️ Never train acro in strong thermals, near storm fronts, or without knowing the forecast.

8. Water and Obstacle Avoidance

Gliders Aren’t Boats—Stay Dry, Stay Safe

Water landings are among the most dangerous in paragliding, especially during acro. Lines can entangle limbs, and fabric can drag you under. Always fly far from bodies of water unless equipped with flotation and safety backup.

🌊 Avoiding Obstacles:

Maintain wide lateral clearance from trees, cliffs, towers, and other pilots
Do not fly above tight canyons or ridge lines with limited landing options
Fly acro over water only with a safety boat, flotation vest, and team communication in place

9. flare line Maintenance and Gear Lifespan

Care = Confidence

Even the most robust acro wing needs upkeep. The Moustache is engineered for longevity, but intense maneuvering accelerates wear. Respect your gear, and it will return the favor.flare line

🧰 Maintenance Tips:

Inspect stitching and lines after every 10 flights
Retire wing after approx. 300–500 hours of intense use
Avoid UV exposure between flights—use covers or shade
Log your flights and incidents to track wear trends
Replace lines symmetrically if tension inconsistencies arise

10. Training Environment

Start with Structure—Then Expand Your Skills

You’re never too experienced for coaching. Structured progression, video feedback, and SIV (Simulation d’Incident en Vol) training are invaluable to mastering complex maneuvers.flare line

🎓 Training Guidelines:

Start new tricks at an SIV site with water and rescue team
Use radios with your coach during maneuvers
Join online or in-person Flare Pilot Communities for tips
