UP Backpack
The UP Makalu Light is delivered with a
special paraglider backpack, which fulfils
the demands of very high luggage volume
and ergonomically optimised comfort.
We have built in an anatomical carrying
system that allows an optimised load
distribution for maximum comfort. The S-
shaped
shoulder straps allow full
adjustment and the detachable chest strap
prevents the shoulder straps from slipping
off the shoulders.
The load control straps attached to the
shoulder straps can be set either loose, to
aid ventilation, or tight, for extra stability.
They should rise from your collarbone at
about a 45° angle.
A hip belt is also incorporated to assist
overall comfort. If the hip belt is tightened
then the shoulder straps can be
released slightly to transfer the load
away from the shoulders. The hip belt
is fitted with stabilisation straps, which
can be tightened to help stability, or
loosened
for extra freedom of
movement. The hip belt is removable
for when packing size is critical, or the
pack is being transported by air.
It is important, especially when there is
a long trek involved, that the backpack
is adjusted for maximum comfort. The
following advice should be considered
when packing.
