Setup for 3rd rescue

I have an Ava 2015 acro base and have been thinking about ways to fly with a 3rd rescue for training tricks with a high risk of falling into the wing/lines where I may not be able to use my base. Unfortunately this harness has no spot for a 3rd rescue (I'm aware that the newest version of the harness does have this). Using a front-mount is no good because clipping into the carabiners would add a major risk for using the base, and there are no attachment points at the shoulder to add in risers.

Hello everyone,

I've read quite a lot on this forum on freestyle vs acro wings for beginners. However, not so much on wannabe acro harnesses!

Waterproof gadget functions for acro?

Hello Friends!
My name is Nicolay, I am a paraglider pilot and an R&D engineer in the Ungravity project: www.ungravity.store

Our product is the first waterproof gadget for free flying. And we would be proud to build some useful functions for acro pilots, who often trains over the water. I do know at least two features, which are essential for you: G-meter and a low altitude alarm. Both are easy to implement in our product.
