The POISON 2 currently represents the absolute pinnacle of skywalk Paraglider

development. The specications for the successor to the well-established and

successful POISON 1 were manifold but clearly dened by our Test and Competition

Pilots and through ongoing customer feedback.

The top requirement was to achieve maximal performance in Gütesiegel-certication.

For experienced Pilots the rst priority remains yable performance, speed- above all,

but without losing the solid climbing characteristics of the POISON 1. Naturally, a

glider of this class retains the established JET FLAPS as part of the package.

The POISON 2 speaks to the experienced cross-country and competition Pilot. With our

constantly developing software, we’ve made large gains with the canopy quality, direct-

ly beneting the glide performance.

Through a novel process called 3-D Ballooning, it is now possible for us to go into even

more detail in the design of the canopy. The result- the canopy now exhibits extraordi-

nary performance during high-speed ight as well as an above average stability.

The POISON 2 sets a benchmark among lightweight Gliders, made possible by the

worldwide debut of the novel cloth, Aerofabrix AL29, as well as with skytex27,

manufactured by Porcher Marine.

A sensationally low weight of approx. 5 kg is responsible for the amazingly manageable

extreme ight characteristics, for a high performance glider with almost 70 cells.

Further details of the construction and the measurements are described in the DHV-

type sheet, which is part of this manual. The measurements of the line elements are

listed in the type sheet or in the lineplans. They are measured with 5 kg weight.

The DHV measures from the line carabiner to the bottom sail.

The POISON2 is equipped with a line system offering the ideal compromise between

durability and low wind resistance. The material mix of sheathed Dyneema and

unsheathed Tecnora lines guarantees the highest possible strength with minimal wind

resistance. The unsheathed Technora top lines as well as the main lines have low wind

resistance and high strength. They are partially double-spliced and additionally sewn.

The double-splicing serves to optimally transfer power to the middle and top lines.

To sum it up, this combination of materials offers both strength and performance.

Every pilot is responsible for their own safety and will have to ensure that their aircraft

(paraglider) has been checked and serviced for its airworthiness before ying.

You can only y your skywalk POISON 2 with a valid ying license and in accordance

with local rules and regulations.

During its production your skywalk POISON 2 has passed thorough quality control-

checks. More spot checks were performed before its despatch.

The skywalk POISON 2 can be equipped with an enclosed foot operated

Acceleration-System.

The Speed System acts on the A-, B- and C-Risers. In the Start position all Risers are

the same length: 50 cm without shackles. The P2 has a short and extremely effective

speed path.

By activation of the Speed System, the A-1 Riser will be shortened by 14 cm, the A2-

Riser 10,3 cm, the B-Riser 9 cm, and the C1-Riser 5 cm. The C2-Riser retains its orig-

inal length. The brake-pulley moves upward during accelerated ight- this guarantees

that the performance of the braking equipment under tension is not compromised. Op-

timal canopy form is sustained during accelerated ight conditions as well. The Speed

System is designed for highest speed and best possible performance.

Most commonly used harnesses have pulleys for the acceleration-system already

attached. The acceleration line runs from the front through the pulleys at the harness

to the top. They are tied to the ”Brummel-hooks” at the right length.

With the right adjustment of the acceleration lines, the foot-bar can be reached easily

with angled legs during ight. By straightening the legs, the whole acceleration range

can be used.

Prior to ying, the connection hooks of the foot-operated accelerator and the

acceleration-system have to be connected to each other (Brummel-hooks). Check that

the acceleration line runs freely.

By using the foot-operated accelerator the pilot reduces the force via a pulleysystem by

half and shortens the A-, B- and C- risers.

The skywalk POISON 2 is licensed for all certied harnesses of the GH type

(harnesses without solid cross-bracing).

If you nd any damage or excessive wear and tear please get in touch with your ying school.

The POISON is equipped with the trend-setting Jet-Flap system, just like the MESCAL

and TEQUILA. Air is conducted from the bottom sail (pressure area) to the top sail (low-

pressure area) and is blown out there with higher speed. The connection is established

through jet shaped channels, which are located in the rear section of the wing.

When increasing the angle of attack the danger of airow interruption and subsequent

stalling is minimized.

Results: the constant airow delays the stall even at great angles-of-attack, the yable

minimum speed is lowered and the pilot has a higher incidence range. This is of great

importance, especially during starting and landing.

The Jet-aps help for an extraordinary climbing performance. You don‘t need any

special knowledge to have control of the ap system, the use of a Jet-Flap paraglider is

the same as a conventional glider.

The skywalk POISON is very manoeuvrable and reacts to steering inputs directly and

without delays. Simple weight shift enables you to y very wide turns with minimal alti-

tude loss. Combined steering technique: Weight shifting and pulling of the inside brake

line allow extra tight turns.

During turning you can control the speed, the curve radius and banking by additional

use of the outer brake. Counter braking or releasing the brake lines can change these

parameters most effectively.

In order to achieve the best possible climbing performance, avoid sharp or abrupt bra-

king, rather, allow the brake to pay out. This way the glider can nd the optimal center

of the thermals and will continue to gain in altitude. In narrower thermals, you can circle

the glider more narrowly- when banking the glider will continue to stably gain altitude.

Active ying means ying in harmony with your paraglider.

Anticipate the behaviour of your skywalk POISON in ight, especially in turbulent and

thermal conditions and react accordingly. In calm air necessary corrections will be min-

imal, but turbulence demands permanent attention and the use of brakes and weight

shifting with the harness.

Good pilots have instinctive reactions. So possibly collapses can be feeled early and

prevented.
