Strong-wind landings require a different technique. If you use the brakes to are in a strong wind the wing tends to
convert this energy to height, which can be a problem. The best method is to take hold of the rear-risers at the maillons
just before landing, and collapse the canopy using these when you have landed. The glider will collapse very quickly
using this method.
After landing, the B-risers can also be used to collapse the canopy, although it is more difcult to control the
collapsed canopy on the ground with the B-risers.
