Abstract
A carrier system for carrying out interception maneuvers of a loadbearing paraglider which has a glider having a trailing edge for carrying out the maneuver with at least one interception line is fixed to said edge includes at least one carried load unit, which is connected to the carrier system via a first, short load carrier belt and a second, longer load carrier belt. A carried load connected to the carried load unit is carried by way of the first, short load carrier belt. The trailing edge is adjusted to carry out the maneuver by the gravitational force of the carried load, in that the first, short load carrier belt is separated and the carried load is carried by way of the longer, second load carrier belt.
