Concept
The CONNECT REVERSE 3 is one of the latest
generation of paraglider harnesses. It is
designed as a convertible harness/backpack
and combines the usual high comfort level of
SWING’s Connect range of harnesses with
outstanding carrying features as a backpack.
In
designing
the
backpack,
particular
importance was placed on a high level of
carrying comfort, optimal weight distribution
and a high level of functionality. Various
accessories allow the backpack to be
customised according to the pilot’s individual
needs.
It sets standards through its use of a carrying
system which has proved its reliability in alpine
sports.
The harness design focused on ease of use, a
high level of comfort and pilot safety.
The choice of materials reflects the overall
concept of a top quality product with a high level
of functionality, but which is lightweight. The
harness uses mainly light yet robust ripstop
fabrics.
The harness was designed for paraglider pilots
who are keen on hiking, who go for long flights
from remote areas and who are wanting
increased comfort from the optimised carrying
system. It is extremely comfortable which
means it is also suitable for anyone looking for a
top quality harness with practical features and
compact dimensions.
