Verify that all buckles and straps
are safely secured. The best way

Connect the parachute’s right
bridle into the right karabiner
•
Connect the left bridle to the left
karabiner.
•
Attach the parachute container to
the chest strap using the
Velcro/plastic click buckle

Always adhere to the harness and
glider manufacturer instructions.
Ensure that the distance between the
karabiners is not reduced due to the
use of the UP Profile Light – reduced
karabiner distance increases the risk

If you are using
the UP Profile Light with
the original chest-
mounted outer container
you must always verify that
the tow-line release
mechanism does not impede proper
deployment of the parachute at all
times. We recommend using a Y-
shaped strap tow release.
