If this doesn't work, a full stall (symetrical or asymetrical) is the only
other option. This shouldn't be done unless you have been taught
how to do it and can only be done with a large amount of altitude.
Remember if the rotation is accelerating and you are unable to
control it, you should use your reserve whilst you still have enough
altitude.
IMPORTANT : A bad preparation on launch, aerobatic flying,
flying a wing of too high a level or in conditions too strong for
your ability, are the main causes of cravats.
Neutrality in Spiral Dives
We call a glider neutral in spiral dives when it stays in the spiral
despite the fact that you have put your hands up. To stop it the pilot
have to counter steer on the other side. A glider which is instable in
spiral dives will accelerate into the dive without input.
The MOJO which is certified DHV1 is neither neutral nor instable in
spiral dive. However some parameters could interfere with its
behaviour : wrong settings of the chest strap, total weight in flight
outside of the weight range, or being in a very deep spiral at a very
high sink rate, you should always be prepared to pilot the wing out
of a spiral dive.
:: ACROBATIC FLYING
A specific standard of certification for aerobatic flying has not been
set up yet. Ozone wings although designed to the highest
specifications are, therefore, not certified for this type of flying. As
Aerobatic manoeuvres are very difficult and incorrectly performed
manouvers can put abnormal stresses on the glider and lead to loss
of pilot control, Ozone strongly recommend you not undertake this
style of flying.
:: TOWING
The MOJO may be tow-launched. It is the pilot's responsibility to use
suitable harness attachments and release mechanisms and to ensure
that they are correctly trained on the equipment and system
employed. All tow pilots should be qualified to tow, use a qualified
tow operator with proper, certified equipment, and make sure all
towing regulations are observed.
When towing you must be certain that the paraglider is completely
over your head before you start. In each case the maximum tow
force needs to correspond to the body weight of the pilot.
:: PARAMOTRING
The MOJO M,L and XL have been certified for paramotoring. Its easy
launch characteristics and its high stability at speed make it a very
good wing for this activity. OZONE provides as optional risers
especially designed for paramotoring: they are shorter than normal
and are equipped with trimmers.
We recommend you undertake qualified training before flying your
wing with a paramotor.
:: MATERIALS
All OZONE gliders are made from the highest quality materials
available. Your Ozone MOJO is constructed from:
Upper-surface
Gelvenor
Double silicone-coated and polyurethane-coated Ripstop Nylon
Selected for its durability and resistance to both UV damage and
general wear and tear. In the air and on the ground the top surface
of your glider takes more abuse than any other part, hence we
choose Gelvenor for the top surface of all our wings.
Lower-surface
Porcher-Marine 37 g/m2 Polyurethane coated Ripstop Nylon
Probably the most commonly used fabric in paraglider construction.
Porcher Marine has been tried, tested and proven to be the most
effective all round fabric.
Internal Ribs
Porcher-Marine 45 g/m2 and 37 g/m2 High tenacity Skytex+ Ripstop
Nylon.
Selected for stability and resistance to stretch - vital if a glider is to
keep its safe-flying characteristics for a long time.
Leading-edge reinforcement
Double-laminated Mylar.
