In the world of paragliding, the choice of equipment is crucial to an unforgettable flying experience. At Air et Aventure, we understand the importance of this decision, which is why we offer a selection of string harnesses designed to maximize your comfort and safety in the air. These harnesses are specially designed to meet the needs of demanding pilots, whether beginners or experienced flyers.
A string harness is a type of harness used in paragliding, offering a sitting position in the same way as a traditional harness, but with a different type of support. This is because the seat is flexible, and there is no seatboard. The place where the thighs come from is generally called the patelettes. Their movements are dissociated because everything is supple, unlike a planchette harness where the seat movement is a single block. This type of harness is distinguished by its ability to envelop the pilot from the thighs to the back, providing good support and balanced weight distribution. However, it should be noted that these harnesses are generally less comfortable over the long term than conventional harnesses, as they are less rigid and padded.
String harnesses are popular with hike and fly pilots, or those looking to optimize weight and volume. As they are made entirely of soft materials, these harnesses are lighter than their planchette counterparts, and can be folded and compressed more tightly than conventional harnesses. So they take up less space in the bag.
String harnesses offer a number of advantages, including:
As previously mentioned, the design of these harnesses optimizes both weight and volume. They are therefore easier to transport.
Depending on the model, they can be fitted with advanced safety systems such as airbags and reserve parachute pockets, just like conventional harnesses.
Even if the level of comfort on a long flight is not the same as with board harnesses, thigh harnesses can offer a number of adjustments for inclination, depth and chest width. This greatly enhances flying comfort!
The choice of a sit-harness depends on a number of factors, including the pilot's level of experience, the type of flying involved (site flying, walking and flying, etc.), and personal preferences in terms of comfort and safety. At Air et Aventure, we offer a wide range of harnesses, so that every pilot can find the equipment that's just right for him or her. Our experts are here to guide you in your choice, taking into account your specific needs.
