About gliders, harnesses, reserves and all the rest...
How to choose harness for paragliding? Can we use harness used in normal paragliding (not sure to call it freestyle!!) for ACRO or XC?
Basically, I want to know if with my current harness(Gradient Compact Paragliding Harness) can I do ACROs, or are there special harnesses for doing ACRO?
Hi,
Can someone advise on a certified Supair RR BASE harness inspector/re-packer in the UK please??
Thanks

Hi everyone,
I'm looking for a freestyle wing to learn acro. (Already practiced Helicos on my old B-Wing, but for more dynamic things it's too slow).
Someone recommended the Gradient Freestyle 3 (20qm) to me, but others told me it's too dynamic to start with, so I also tested the Icaro Aquila (18qm), but found the lines rather short and I'm not sure how that works with the maneuvers...
Do you have recommendations?
I weigh 60kg and find it rather hard to find a suitible wing for a light weight pilot...
Thanks in advance!

I have a new ava sport acro base harness and I love it. I have done several intentional cut aways to get use to the system.
Being also a skydiver and base jumper I loved the feeling and did a couple cut aways just for fun too.
I have done about 12 so far.
Question: is there a limit on how many cut aways a harness is certified for? Or is is limitless like base and skydive harnesses permitted you have it regularly inspected.
Would appreciate some insight especially from the manufacturers.
Hi guys
I have about 200hrs of flying on my Gin Atlas size M wing.
I am interested in doing some acro stuff. I recently done my SIV course where I learned SAT and practised to nail my wingovers. So as you can see I am a beginner in acro.
I really enjoy and therefore would like to buy a more designated wing for acro manouveres. I've heard that it is better to go first for a freestyle wing then later for acro wing. So my choice is a freestyle wing Ozone Octane 2.
