Congratulations on your purchase of the BGD BLIZZARD
The BLIZZARD is a progression wing for paramotoring. It is ideal for pilots who have completed their in-school ight
training, and who are ready to take their ying to the next level. It is easy to launch and y and has excellent stability,
and its performance and speed will be appreciated by pilots who are ready for longer, further cross-country ights.
The Blizzard ies equally well with a trike or with foot launch. In fact all the DGAC ight tests for the size 29 were
done at the maximum weight, with a trike.
Your wing has been designed to a high standard of safety and stability, but it will only retain these characteristics if
it is properly looked after. This manual has been prepared to give you information and advice about your paraglider.
Please read it carefully to ensure you get the best out of your new wing.
If you need replacement parts or further information, please contact your nearest BGD dealer.
