Introduction

Welcome to the paragliding world according to SUPAIR; a world of shared passion.

The STRIKE harness is the best weapon for extreme adventure without compromise between security and lightness! Designed for X-Alps competitors the STRIKE harness is dedicated to “hike and fly” pilots who deserve the best. It is aimed at experienced pilots fully trained and paragliding.

The well though out design and choice of materials were guided by the same quality and longevity objectives.

The harness STRIKE harness was certified EN 1651 : 1999 and LTF 91/09.

Indicating that it meets European and German safety requirements.

After reading this manual we suggest you to check your harness during a hang-test to adjust it before your first flight.

Using the seat-plate. :

The STRIKE can be used with or without the carbon fiber seatplate.

Flying

with

the plate gives a tighter seating posture and transfers the wing’s imputs more precisely. The seatplate equally contributes to heightened overall comfort without lateral hip pressure.

Flying

without

the seatplate brings a more flexible seating area following the pilot’s body shape while slightly rising the carabiners attachment points. The harness is slightly more neutral and overall stable. Without the seatplate the harness feels tighter.

Note that in case of a situation beyond the wing’s safety limitations, toggle control must compensate for the lack of pressure and precision given by a seatplate.

Harness adjustments.

Adjusting the harness.

1.

Backrest tilt adjustment :

Without strap tension, first adjust the backrest incline at the desired angle.

>>Tightening will bring the backrest at a more vertical angle ( recommended posture for beginners ).

>> Loosening the backrest will tilt the back support rearward.

Speedbag length.

Your legs must be extended ; seat comfortably all the way back inside the harness.

3.

shoulder straps.

Adjust the shoulder straps length using the trimmers.

The pressure on the shoulder straps contributes to general comfort in flight. It must be precise: not too tight nor too loose. The upper area of the straps must offer enough support to maintain your torso in a comfortable position.

tighten

4.

Seat depth.

Adjust the seat depth by feel : alter the lower back support to a comfortable snug fit. The tighter the adjustment, the more reclined the flying position will become. Relaxing the tension adjustment will bring the sitting posture to a more vertical position.

5. Adjusting the chest strap.

The distance to consider corresponds to the length between the middle points at the bottom of each carabiner.

The ideal distance varies between paragliding wing models. Adjust your harness’s chest strap according to the wing manufacturer’s recommendations.

Tightening the chest-strap provides more stability but less piloting efficiency while increasing the risk of riser twisting.

On the contrary loosening the strap provides more efficiency but can be dangerous in turbulent aerology (increased risk of falling towards the collapsed side of your glider).



Connecting the wing to the harness.

Without twisting the risers, connect them to the harness attachment loops using the self-locking carabiners.

The connection wing/harness can be done using either standard self-locking carabiners or a set of

SUP’AIR «Connects» ( ultralight flexible Dyneema connectors ).

Check for the risers to be properly positioned and untwisted. The «A» risers must be located at the front and facing the flight direction (see diagram).

Lastly, check for the main self-locking carabiners to be fully closed and locked in place.

Flight direction.



Flight behavior.

During take-off, the STRIKE harness provides very good mobility due to its lightness and “hammock” structure

(without seat plate).

During flight, you will feel comfortable and forget the light structure.

The harness is quite stable and the piloting very efficient and intuitive.

Whichever wing your are flying, the STRIKE harness will always fulfill your expectations.

Lightness, comfort, ease of use and small packing volume make this harness a perfect tool for Cross country and “hike and fly”.

In turbulent air, the harness can be piloted sitting upright with the legs bent. It will remain fully operational, comfortable, and will let the pilot deal with potential flight incident.

To discover your new harness, we will recommend making your first flights on a school training hill in calm weather conditions with low wind speeds.



Flight phases.

Pre-Flight control.

• Inspect the harness and the carabiners for possible wear and tear.

• Be certain for the handle cables to be securely fastened in place inside their respective reserve parachute pocket housings.

• Check that your personal settings haven’t changed.

• Check that all zippers and buckles are closed.

• Check that the speedbar is correctly connected and adusted.

• Check that no rigging line or other object comes in contact and interfere with the rescue parachute handle.

• Make sure that the self-locking carabiners are locked and connected to the paraglider.

• Be certain for the accelerator/speed-bar line not to ride through the reserve parachute handle.

Takeoff

After a thorough weather conditions analysis was conducted and the decision to fly was made, put your harness on and follow the next steps :

• Start by putting on the right leg

• Fully close the leg strap and chest strap buckles..

• Close the Speed-bag, then the chest strap.

• Takeoff maintaining a vertical posture and push yourself inside the harness but only once away from the ridge.

Do not let go the brakes when close to terrain.



Flight phases.

In flight.

Once in flight, the STRIKE’s handling becomes instinctive and stable.

Set the distance between the two carabiners according to the aerology of the moment, and the wing manufacturer’s recommendations.

Speedbar use.

We recommend using the speed-bar cautiously due to the increased risk of a partial or full frontal collapses.

Use the speed-bar/accelerator ( transitions ) only when far away from the ridge and in calm weather conditions as the wing becomes more sensitive to turbulence when accelerated. If you feel a loss of tension in the speed-bar/accelerator, stop pushing it and apply a light brake pressure on the toggles to prevent the glider from experiencing a potential frontal collapse.

Beware not to push on the speed-bar/accelerator to enter the harness after takeoff ( it is not a foot-rest ) or there could be the risk of a frontal collapse taking place as a result.

To use the speed-bar/accelerator, backpedal and grab the bar with the back of your shoe, push and use the second foot to stabilize it or to grab the second bar.

Apply pressure symmetrically to the first stage ( first bar ), when reaching the maximum enabled distance then push on the second stage ( upper bar ). To decelerate, reverse the procedure.

Landing

Always be certain to have enough altitude to make a landing approach corresponding to the weather conditions of the moment and terrain. During the landing approach, never make hasty maneuvers.

In preparation for landing, get out of the Speed-bag early enough, and straighten your legs, ready to run. Always land into the wind.

Always land upwind in a standing posture and be ready to run upon touchdown if necessary.

During your final approach, use as much airspeed as possible based on the weather conditions of the moment, then gradually reduce the glider air speed by pushing the toggles all the way down until contact with the ground is made. Beware not to brake too soon and too rapidly and too deep which could lead to a stall and a dangerous landing.

During high wind speed landings, turnaround and face the wing as soon as ground contact is made and move toward the wing while braking symmetrically to deflate it.

Do not land in a seated position as it is dangerous.



Using the reserve parachute.

Throwing the reserve parachute.

It is strongly recommended to frequently check your reserve parachute handle location while in flight. This exercise should be executed instinctively and will increase your chances of a successful parachute extraction in case of an emergency.

Estimate your AGL ( Altitude Above Ground Level ) which if high enough may make it worth trying to bring your wing back to a normal flying configuration. If in doubt quickly deploy your emergency parachute.

Deploying a rescue parachute should only be done in an emergency.

With a strong lateral on the right side, pull the handle towards you and then throw the parachute away from you ( including the container and its handle ) toward a clear unobstructed area of the sky. As soon as the parachute deploys, bring as much of the glider as possible toward you by pulling symmetrically on the “C” or “D” risers or on the toggles/brakes.

Be prepared to land by adopting an upright position with knees together and legs slightly bent. Prepare to roll down, hands on your chest, ankles together with pivoting hips and shoulders in a Paragliding Landing Fall (PLF) configuration.

Towing

To takeoff under tow you must be equipped with a quick release specially designed for the task.

Connect the towing release system to the main carabiner attachment points in accordance to manufacturer recommendations.

Before towing you should consult with a competent towing outfit about safety recommendations.

Mandatory controls.

Mandatory biannual inspection.

- Ascertain parachute deployment functionality by pulling the handle to activate a clean POD extraction sequence.

- Inspect the harness for wear and tear.

Annual check

- An annual deployment and repacking of the reserve parachute must be conducted by competent and certified personnel.



Care

Harness cleaning and maintenance.

It is a good idea to clean your harness from time to time. We recommend using a brush and soft solvents only ( soap or mild cleaning agents ).

Rinse thoroughly. Never use aggressive chemicals such as strong solvents which could be harmful to the fabric, webbings, stitching and weaken the overall integrity of the harness.

The zippers should be lubricated from time to time using a silicon spray.

If you regularly use your harness in a dusty environment ( dirt sand etc... ) we advise you to regularly check and maintain your carabiners and buckles : clean them with a mild detergent then blow-dry them fully but DO NOT LUBRICATE !

Prior to using them conduct a thorough carabiners and buckles checkup to insure their full functionality.

If you use your harness in a marine/sandy/salty environment pay particular attention to your gear and follow a regular rigorous maintenance routine.

If your foam protector is over 5 years old or was subjected to more than 3 consequent impacts, replace it with a new and identical model.

Storage and transport.

When not in use your harness should be stored inside your paragliding backpack in a dry cool and clean place protected from UV exposure. If your harness is wet please dry it thoroughly before stowing it away.

During transport protect the harness against mechanical or UV deterioration (use a bag). Avoid long transports in wet conditions.

Life-span

Once every two (2) years a thorough harness inspection must be conducted :

• Webbing wear and tear (no excessive wear nor rip beginning or unwanted folds).

• Buckles and carabiners ( functionality wear and tear ).

• The BUMPAIR back protector’s efficiency ( after each substantial impact ). The BUMPAIR must be replaced by a new one after three

(3) substantial impacts or five (5) years of use or whichever comes first.

The threads and fabric used to manufacture the STRIKE were specifically selected for their quality and resilience capacities. However in particular instances such as long term UV exposure abrasion, contact with damaging chemicals, general wear and tear, the harness will need to be inspected at a professional certified repair facility. Safety comes first!

The connects are NEVER to be used for any activities other than paragliding.

Independently from the pre-flight procedure, deploy and vent your reserve parachute on the ground before repacking it. The procedure must be done at least once a year.



Care

Repairs

In spite of using the highest quality products used for manufacturing, it is possible for your harness to deteriorate through general use.

If showing any sign of wear and tear it should be sent for inspection and/or repairs at a professional certified facility.

SUP’AIR offers an extended warranty period reaching beyond the product standard protection plan against manufacturing defects.
