Skyline Harnesses
Nanga Parbat
The new harness for mountaineers.
It has not to be the Nanga Parbat…Also while ascending the home spot
every kilo less gear means more fun. To have also more fun while flying,
comfort was our second goal...
This harness was developed to take the charge off
flying mountaineers but also to give a lot of comfort. This harness is
also with free sliding shoulder straps, so that it is very easy to stay
upright at the start and to handle the glider with shifting the weight.
There is no seatboard, but there is a contact surface from the hollow of
the knee up to the shoulders. So it is possible to fly for longer times
very comfortable. The rescue chute should be hang into the snap hooks.
There are preference to put an airbag on. Accelerator rolls are optional.

Skyline Phase
The new high-end harness .
Comfortable flying in all phases! Start-Flight-Accelerated Flight-XC-Acro….The
Phase fulfils all high demands!
The new harness Phase is build of the approved
PROJECT and has a extra seatboardextension. The harness was developed for
advanced pilots, who wants to combine maximum comfort with athleticism.
Because of the free-sliding shoulder straps it is much easier and more
elegant to fly with shifting the weight. Standing upright at the starting
place and a very dynamic start are excellent possible. While the flight
every position could be changed very easy without adjusting – upright in
the thermal – lying while accelerating – no problem! A highlight: The
seatboardextension goes over a roll and does go out of the way while
starting and landing. Once adjusted, there is no adjusting of the
seatboardextension after the start.

Project BI

special formed seat board. So it is very easy to put the legs in a V-form.

position to the passenger. The harness has also all preparations to fly
solo with it (accelerator rolls, shoulder strap fixing for rescue chute)

move in a comfortable upright position and different seat positions in
flight without tiresome adjusting
