TOWING

Towing Course

The tow endorsement clinic is held at Breezer,NSW.The purpose of the tow clinic is to enable pilots to qualify for the HGFA tow endorsement.This involves a minimum of ten tows per pilot, including at least two simulated weak link breaks.
There is also an element of theory.The clinic provides a hydraulic pay out winch, driver, tow releases and radios.The pilot is expected to bring his own paraglider and harness.Each pilot should have safety glasses, which must be worn at all times during a tow.
