General
The PROGRESS 3 should principally be flown sitting in a upright positi-
on. This gives the best view in the air.
The PROGRESS 3 has plenty of trump cards to play. Weight is distri-
buted evenly over the adaptable seat surface, from thighs to shoulder
blades. This does away with pressure points, circulation continues
unimpeded, and the mind remains alert during long flights.
Ground handling
Light weight and the ability to freely stand upright makes ground hand-
ling much less taxing with the PROGRESS 3.
The LegPads (leg straps) and reserve stowage in the protector allow
maximum freedom of movement, so that you can give full attention to
wing control.
Tip:
a wide LegPad distance increases freedom of movement on
the ground (see section “Setting the distance between the leg
straps”).
Clipping in with EASY CONNECT
The EASY CONNECT coloured markings on the carabiner support lo-
ops make it especially easy to clip in an ADVANCE paraglider to the
PROGRESS 3. The pilot only has to make sure that the red and blue
markings on the paraglider risers join the equivalent red and blue lines
on the PROGRESS 3 harness carabiner loops. The EASY CONNECT
SYSTEM contributes to greater safety before takeoff.
