3.2- Pockets
In flight configuration, TRANSALP 2 has a rear pocket in which clothing, a
rucksack and trekking poles can be stowed.
As a matter of comfort, please avoid overfilling the pocket and stow the
trekking poles in their specific vertical compartment. Put any bulky or par
-
ticularly heavy equipment into the rucksack and wear it over the harness.
3.3 - Tandem flying
TRANSALP 2 can be used for tandem passengers.
3.4- Flying over water
TRANSALP 2 poses no particular problems when flying over water, but
remember that landing in water is still dangerous. Woody Valley recom-
mends using a suitable life jacket when flying above water.
3.5- Winch launch tow bridle
TRANSALP 2 can be used for towed launches. The towing bridle should
be inserted directly into the main snap-hooks, taking care to position the
snap-hooks with the opening mechanism at the rear. For further details,
see your towing bridle instructions or ask a qualified towing instructor at
your airfield.
3.6 - Landing with TRANSALP 2
Before landing, slide forwards in the harness so that you assume a stand-
ing position. Never land in a sitting position as it is very dangerous for your
back.
3.7 - Disposing of the harness
The materials used in a paragliding harness must be disposed of correctly.
Please give your harness back to us instead of throwing it away. We will
take care of disposing of it correctly.
