Something to remember if you are foolish enough to get sucked into a CB and
lose your pretty white wings as a result. If you bail out successfully, it
might be a good idea to wait a while before pulling the rip cord lest you
continue to go up.


Do paragliders (is that what you call the participants?) typically have
an emergency chute?
