FreeX X-one Mode D'emploi page 88

The X-ONE is - just as any other paraglider - neither suited for
aerobatics nor licensed for it. All manoeuvres surpassing a
horizontal incline of 60° and a longitudinal incline of 30° as well as
flight manoeuvres in which an airstream hits the canopy from
behind are considered aerobatics.
The paraglider is a flexible aircraft without a supporting primary
structure. Therefore, it may happen that a portion of the canopy
suddenly collapses in turbulence. Thus, canopy collapses are a
facet of paragliding and are, in case you should encounter one,
not difficult to handle with the X-ONE.
The X-ONE leaves the pilot plenty of time to intervene. The
pilot's first reaction must always be counterbalance to prevent the
canopy from turning away or to pull it out. Without counter
steering, the X-ONE usually stops the rotation on its own.
Normally, the collapsed areas of the wing will then reinflate
without pilot intervention. In case the collapsed side does not
reinflate on its own, pull down the steering line on the side of the
collapse all the way. In extreme cases this process must be
repeated several times.
Make sure you stabilize flight direction by counterbalancing.
"Pumping" the brake in panic is not an effective technique.
Remember to continuously check your distance from the ground!
Asymmetric collapses as well as front collapses can be avoided
to a large extent by "active" flying.
