0Killing The Wing in Strong Winds
1. C/D Riser Collapse
Note the strong pull-down, up briefly with turn, then down again.
Minimal test
10 clean
On a 2-liner wing, the rear (B) risers are the closest. On my Niviuk Peak 3, the pressure is very high.
2. A-Riser – Opposite Brake Asymmetric Collapse
First pulling one A riser and then the brake on the other side about half a second later (stalling the wing). This could be good when flying backwards on landing. This may also work with A and opposite rear riser.
