Magnum Harness

 
 

Warranted comfort even after hours of flight. The harness is sensitive to weight-shift thanks to the lower position of the main karabiners. Excellent feed-back from the glider to the harness. The use of abrasion resistant CORDURA reduces the overall weight of the harness. The side covering of the risers and the various harness adjustments with elastic NEOPRENE decreases drag and guarantees a smooth surface.

  • The Magnum features an ergonomically formed seat, the facility to adjust its angle according to the pilot's preference and the standard foot stirrup or optional wooden foot-plate guarantee maximum comfort during take off and in flight. The pilot's body is perfectly supported in the back and shoulder area. The smooth lining to the shoulder straps and leg strap system ensures easy movement during take off. The weight of the harness is 7.5 kg including the foam protector and stainless steel karabiners. For enthusiasts of the lightest equipment we offer a carbon seat plate with a reduction in weight of 400g and carbon foot-plate with a reduction in weight of 200g. Overall weight can be further reduced by the use of aluminium karabiners. The seat is supported by adjustable straps in front and back to adjust the exact angle of the plate. The seat, seat sides and back are made from a breathing mesh material to reduce sweating.
     

  • Adjustable pulleys enable error-free routing of the speed-system without either foot banking up. This allows adjustment of the pulleys so, that the pilot's position in the harness remains identical during activation of the speed system, with no resulting increase in aerodynamic drag. The harness is equipped as standard with a 15 cm. foam protector.

    The protector can be easily removed through the back pocket. The shoulder straps don't slip down thanks to an auxiliary strap with plastic clip.

    The rescue canopy is placed under the pilot's legs towards the front of the seat. A sufficiently large deployment system guarantees easy removal of the rescue canopy from the outer container. The reserve handle is highly visible and easy to reach. The optional leg cover is attached with Velcro and karabiners and is easily removable for summer flying.

     

  • As standard the detachable leg cover is produced from the similar fabric as the harness. Optionally a Neoprene leg cover is available. Please specify this when ordering if required.

    A well-designed back pocket system enables easy assembly of the harness and packing in a rucksack. The rescue canopy is placed under the pilot's legs towards the front of the seat. A sufficiently large deployment system guarantees easy removal of the rescue canopy from the outer container. The reserve handle is highly visible and easy to reach. Neoprene pockets on the sides offer storage for gloves or other small essentials.
