Introduction - Skywalk Range Air Handbuch

INTRODUCTION

The RANGE AIR was conceptualized by the skywalk development team as a paraglider
harness for paragliding. Base-jumping, skydiving or the use of the RANGE-AIR as a climb-
ing harness with all of its variations is not appropriate for its intended use and is forbid-
den. The RANGE AIR harness is suitable for XC occasional pilots up to hike & fly compe-
tition pilots who want to optimize their equipment in terms of weight and aerodynamics.
The geometry and the 3D seat construction of this harness support the pilot during long
XC flights while constantly giving direct feedback to the wing. To ensure a long life, the
materials used require careful, professional treatment.
The leg and chest straps are equipped with the so-called "get-up" safety system that
prevents the pilot from falling out of the harness. Safety has been increased further
through the integrated ram-air protector, that protects the pilot's back in the case of a
hard impact. The RANGE AIR can be flown with all paragliders as long as the paraglider
manufacturer doesn't require a special harness. Please consult your paraglider manual to
see if this is the case.
