Imagine if you did a massive maneuver, or you released asymmetrically from a stall and you got a twist. It can happen, so its good to know how to recover from twists.
If you get a twist, you instantly block it. Hold at the top of the risers to stop it from twisting anymore. Your arms can extend upwards to become the risers, so you don't twist anymore. If you let go of that, there's only one point of axis, so it will keep rotating and get worse and worse. So if ever you see a twist, block it straight away !
If you need to steer, you can use the back risers or the brakes, above the twists. Don't panic !
To get it out, look at the way the twist is going and then do big scissor-kicks with your legs to help it get out.
With any paraglider, if you've been turned less than a 180 degrees, the separating forces will always return you back to balanced flight.
