Here is something that I could never figure out. Many times you see somebody underneath the glider ,at the start of the tow, pushing on the downtube . To me ,this seems like a potential to create a hazard more than help things. Like grazing their head on the back of the sail and popping a batten bungee off.( saw it happen with somebody with their ballcap on backwards ) or tripping and snagging a back wire. Is there really a function for this person to be there ? Just curious. P.S. love this slide in on the skids.
I'm not sure that I understand when You say pushing g on the downtube? Maybe You mean pushing on the basetube?. Email me at caskydog@gmail.com Bob 🦋🦋🦋🌠
