Adjusting the harness

Video Tutorial

Basic settings

Adjusting the shoulder straps

Loosen the lark's head on the white loop (A) and knot the red line at the desired position. Finally, retighten the lark's head and ensure the setting is symmetrical.

Choose your leg position

You can choose between two positions: (B)

  • Adjuster closed (basic setting): for a dampened, smoother flight feel and maximum comfort.
  • Adjuster open: for more agility and freedom of movement.


HintADVANCE recommend that you thoroughly familiarise yourself with these adjustments before your first flight in the harness. As well as that you should always make your first test flight with new equipment in quiet weather conditions.

Preparing the accelerator

        General info

        The speed system is already fitted and only needs to be adjusted for length.

        • Make sure that the speed lines run freely through all their low-friction-rings on the harness.
        • Connect the speed lines to the risers by Brummel hooks or anchor hitches.
        • Make sure that your final setting allows the full travel of the speed system to be used.

        Position the accelerator

        You can prepare the accelerator in two ways before take-off:

        • With Step-In-Aid: Connect the speed bar to one of your shoes for easy access in flight. (1)
        • Holder: Attach it to the harness so that it does not interfere with your take-off. (2)

        The speed lines can be fixed with the stoppers so that they do not interfere with yourtake-off. (3)

        WarningMake sure that the speed lines are not so short that the wing would be permanently accelerated in flight.
