2.3.3- Chest strap adjustment
The chest strap which controls the distance between the two karabiners can be adjusted from 40 to 51 cm. For the first flight with X-Rated 7, we suggest
setting the chest strap to the minimum length, then locating the preferred length in flight by means of gradual adjustment. When the chest strap is shorter
and tighter, stability is greater. An excessive distance between karabiners does not improve glider performance, and tightening the chest strap excessively
may exacerbate the “twist” effect that may follow an asymmetric collapse of the sail.
2.3.4- Leg strap adjustment
The roots of the leg straps are positioned high, a characteristic of the Get-Up system, and this ensures great freedom of movement for the legs. Generally,
the factory setting are correct. If it is difficult to enter the harness after launch, we suggest tightening the leg strap adjustment under the seat. This makes
it easier for the pilot to enter the harness after launch without having to let go of the paraglider’s control handles.
