The skywalk CAYENNE2 licensed for all certified harnesses of the GH type
(harnesses without solid cross-bracing).
Be aware that the level of suspension changes the relative braking distance.
We recommend the skywalk harness CULT. It supports the direct handling of CAYENNE2
and increases joy in flying.
CAUTION:
FULLY CROSS-BRACED HARNESSES EFFECT THE HANDLING
DRASTICALLY AND DO NOT LEAD TO HIGHER SAFETY!
The skywalk CAYENNE2 can be equipped with a foot operated Acceleration System.
CAUTION:
THE DHV RATING OF SOME GLIDER SIZES CAN CHANGE DURING THE USE
OF THE ACCELERATION SYSTEM IN FLIGHT. TO DETERMINE WHICH SIZES
ARE AFFECTED PLEASE CHECK THE TYPE SHEET.
The speed system uses the A-, B- and C-risers. In the initial position all risers are equally
long: 50.5 cm over all without carabiners.
When fully applying the speed system, the A-riser is shortened by 19.6 cm, the B-riser
17 cm, the C-riser 8.8 cm. The D-riser retains its original length. In this way the optimal
canopy shape is maintained during accelerated flight.
For linelength of sizes XS and S please see page 35.
Installing the accelerator equipment:
Most commonly used harnesses have pulleys for the acceleration-system already
attached.The acceleration line runs from the front through the pulleys at the harness
to the top. They are tied to the ”Brummel-hooks” at the right length.
With the right adjustment of the acceleration lines, the foot-bar can be reached easily
with angled during flight. By straightening the legs, the whole acceleration range can
be used.
Prior to flying, the connection hooks of the foot-operated accelerator and
the acceleration system have to be connected to each other (Brummel-hooks).
Check that the acceleration line runs freely.
Function:
By using the foot-operated accelerator
the pilot reduces the force via a pulley-
system by half and shortens the A-, B-
and C-risers.
