Adjustments
Adjust your harness to suit your physique and flying style. It is important to adjust it correctly
to ensure you can easily slide into the sitting position after take off. A poorly adjusted harness can
adversely affect the flying characteristics of your paraglider.
Perform adjustments before your first flight by hanging in a simulator and fine-tune the settings if
necessary during your first few flights.
Shoulder straps (1)
The optimum setting for the shoulder straps depends on the height of the pilot. Step into the harness
and stand upright with the breast strap closed, symmetrically adjust the shoulder straps until they are a
snug fit, but not tight.
To tighten: pull up on the RED loop
To loosen: pull down on the BLACK loop
Lateral Straps (2)
The lateral straps adjust the angle between the thighs and the back. Lengthening the straps increases
the angle and vice-versa. The easiest way to adjust them correctly is during a flight in calm air. Remember
that flying in the supine position (i.e. leaning back), reduces the stability of the harness and increases the
risk of riser twists after a deflation.
To tighten, pull forward on BLACK and GREEN loop. To loosen, pull back on the BLACK loop.
Breast strap
After adjusting the shoulder straps, place the breast strap in a comfortable position and tighten so there
is slight pressure on the shoulder straps.
