CHECKS
Repairs are only permitted to be done by ICARO paragliders or by persons authorised to do so by ICARO paragliders. Otherwise you may lose your guarantee claim.
We recommend sending your paraglider back to ICARO paragliders to be checked every 24 months or after every 200 flight hours at the latest. A check after the first 12 months in the lifetime of the glider is not necessary.
