36 Riser | Flare System
3 RISER / FLARE SYSTEM
The “FLARE System” is a matrix of pulleys around the B and C lines and com-
bines the control handles with the accelerator in the brake handles. This al-
lows controlling the FLARE MUSTACHE with just your hands.
The C-level moves with a ratio of 1/3 of the brake travel.
The B-level moves with a ratio of 1/6 of the brake travel.
That means you can fully adjust your glide ratio by completely changing the
angle of attack of your wing. This combination was the key to success.
Your brake handle is connected with an elastic ‘Free Brake Line,’ enabling you
to grab it quickly when standing on the ground.
DON’T release the brake handle while flying and always
stay in the loops.
DON’T adjust the setting on your brake main line (this is
a tool to trim your FLARE MOUSTACHE after many fly-
ing hours, and we recommend that it is only adjusted by
FLARE itself or one of our Pro-Partners).
NEVER steer the FLARE MUSTACHE
by ONLY pulling the main brake line.
Always steer in combination with the
c-pulley line and the main brake line.
