GLOVES

Hi guys.
As a South African, Im finding flying in winter and especially in Spring super nasty for the finger tips. I know many European pilots only start flying in Spring and leave winter out, but what does everyone do with their hands when they are at 3000m in April?? its freakn cold!
Can anyone tell me about the super Deluxe heated gloves? Or any other brands that are ok and not too big in order to have some sensitivity with the brakes. I have used hand warmer sachets before, but they are not really cost effective...

Acro Harness with airbag

Hi guys, does anyone know of an acro harness which has an airbag too? I can't seem to find one :( Preferably lightweight as well but I'd guess a light harness for acro isn't the best of ideas?

I'm only just starting to get into acro having just got myself an Octane FLX and figure I probably need a new harness to go with it so any help/advice would be much appreciated.

Cheers
Steve

2nd rescue in Supair Acro 3

Hi,
this might be a dumb question, but I was wondering how you connect the second reserve to the Acro 3. If I want to put a Rogallo in the bottom container, is it correct that I attach it to carabiners on the shoulder straps? If then I want to put a round one in the back container, where do I attach that one to?
Maybe someone can explain it to me and might even have a manual for it or knows where I can find pictures of it. Thanks in advance and safe flights over the winter!
