2.1.4- Chest strap adjustment
The chest strap adjusts the distance between the two karabiners, and it can be set between 37 and 48 centimetres. When the chest strap is tighter, stability is
greater. We recommend a length of about 40-42 cm. A wider distance does not improve glider performance, and a smaller distance can accentuate the effects of a
“twist” following an asymmetric collapse.
There is also a small elastic clip at the extremity of the padded shoulder-straps. This prevents the shoulders from slipping out of the straps during the launch run.
The plastic clip also includes a useful whistle that can be used in emergency situations.
2.1.5- Leg strap adjustment
The fact that the leg straps are attached to the harness relatively high up ensures great freedom of movement for the passenger’s legs. PASSENGER is fitted with
an adjustment buckle that is easy to adjust in accordance with the passenger’s body shape.
IMPORTANT
All adjustments have to be performed symmetrically on both sides.
