Skyline’s new ZD (Zero Drag) Speed hang glider harness is used by the likes of Antoine Boisselier (FR) – pictured above – and has been very well received.
The harness is tailor-made to each pilot’s size, and has been made more comfortable, say the company, particularly in the torso area.
The ZD Speed has two integrated rescue containers (on the left and right) that do not disturb the aerodynamic lines of the harness, with are double connector points on each reserve. Very strong webbing has been used throughout to withstand the forces encountered in high-speed freefall.
The ZD Speed has plenty of storage space with easy-access left and right zipper bags (the company suggest these could be used to house a tow-release duing flight).
Neoprene arm covers – ‘Batwings’ – come with the harness.
