Description
A zero-pressure airbag and a sleek aerodynamic design: these are the most striking differences between the CONNECT REVERSE 2 and its predecessor models. The airbag takes shape by way of a steel spring, completely independent of airflow, guaranteeing maximum damping right from launch and ensuring the greatest possible dimensional stability even after years of use.
A specially shaped seat board, combined with optimised leg strap geometry, makes it easier for the pilot to get into the harness and, along with many other clever details, perfects the tried and tested system of Swing convertible harnesses. The Alpine Back carrying system from backpack specialist Deuter® is used in the CONNECT REVERSE 2 as well, which sets it apart from every other convertible harness on the market. In backpack mode, the crossed aluminium strips effectively transfer weight to the hip-belt wings, so the perceived weight is noticeably reduced and you’ll really enjoy the hike up to launch.
Once airborne, the CONNECT REVERSE 2 will wow you with its perfect balance between comfort and agility. The harness system with partly non-adjustable geometry ensures that the key settings don’t alter further during flight. Carefully selected, robust and high-quality materials complete the CONNECT REVERSE 2 and make it the number one choice for anyone looking for a durable and comfortable harness for extended hike & fly tours, travelling or simply for flying.
