Description
G-force brake reduces the impact of G-forces on the body of up to 40%. The brake parachute reduces the amount of turns at constant sink rate. Due to its additional drag the pilot is pulled a bit behind compared to spiralling without brake parachute. Thus the glider canopy has a steeper angle towards ground and reduce altitude more efficiently.
G-force brake is particularly suited for high performance gliders with efficient aerodynamic characteristics and as well for tandem purposes.
In order to avoid accidental deployment it is advisable to always attach the G-force brake opposite to the rescue system handle. Using it for tandem paragliding it can be attached to the T-bar instead of attaching it to the harness.
Attention: take care that G-force brake does not stick to trees or anything else during landing.
Attention: G-force brake was not construed fur such purposed and may not be diverted from its intended use.
Using the brake parachute can, dependant on trim speed, turn the harness asymmetrically out of its position.
