Harness

All certified harness systems with mounting at about breast height are compatible with the U-
Turn BLACKLIGHT 2. The lower the mounting point of the harness, the better you can steer the 
U-Turn BLACKLIGHT 2 by shifting your body weight. 
Please keep in mind, that also your harness is exposed to extreme loads. U-Turn recommends 
the use of the very safe and comfortable U-Turn harness rx4 or the practical comfort reversible 
harness InSIde, which match the U-Turn BLACKLIGHT 2 perfectly. The height of the mounting 
also changes the relative brake distance. If you have any questions about the usage of your har-
ness with the BLACKLIGHT 2, ask your U-Turn dealer or directly contact U-Turn. We are happy 
to help!

                                                                

Suitable Rescue Systems

It is required by law and absolutely necessary for safe operation of your paraglider that you always 
carry a rescue system. When choosing your rescue system, watch out that it is approved and
suitable for the intended takeoff weight. 
With the innovative rescue systems of the BACKUP-series by U-Turn we offer light-weight, con-
venient and safe reserves with short opening times and minimum sink-rates.
