The paraglider harness is a crucial part of the pilot's equipment, playing a role in comfort, safety, and flight performance. Here are the key aspects to consider regarding paraglider harnesses:

Harness Geometry

The harness is the direct link between the pilot and the wing, and its geometry influences:

  • The pilot's position during flight
  • The handling and behavior of the wing
  • Comfort during long flight sessions
  • The safety of the pilot

Types of Harnesses

There are different types of harnesses suited to various practices:

  • Standard Harnesses: For recreational flying and progression
  • Competition Harnesses: Optimized for performance
  • Hiking Harnesses: Lightweight and compact for hike-and-fly or flights from small elevations
  • Acrobatic Harnesses: Designed for acrobatic maneuvers with the option to carry two reserve parachutes

Criteria for Choosing

When choosing a harness, the following factors must be considered:

  1. Intended use: Type of practice (recreational, competition, hiking, etc.)
  2. Level of safety: Presence of protections (foam, airbag)
  3. Comfort: Seat width, available adjustments
  4. Weight: Important for certain practices like hike-and-fly
  5. Compatibility: With your flying style, wing, and body type

Durability

Unlike wings, harnesses have a longer lifespan. Choosing the right harness can therefore be a long-term investment for the pilot.

Adjustments

The harness requires precise adjustments to optimize comfort and performance. These adjustments directly influence the pilot's position and, therefore, the behavior of the wing in flight.

Conclusion

Choosing a paraglider harness is an important decision that requires careful consideration. It is recommended to seek advice from professionals or experienced pilots to make the best choice according to your specific needs.

  • Harness Airbag

    The airbag harnesses are, according to the manufacturers, those which provide the most security while remaining light. They are often reversible, which saves the weight of the carrying bag.

  • Harness Mousse Bag

    The foam absorption systems are a bit heavier than the airbag system but can be more aerodynamic.

  • Harness Reversible

    The reversible harnesses are, in general, lighter than the others because they do not oblige the carriage of a transport bag. They are mainly associated with an airbag shock absorption system.

    These are mainly thigh-high harnesses to gain maximum weight
