CONTOUR
CONTOUR
The CONTOUR is a simple loop strap harness that meets the high demands of parakiting in the fields of Soaring, Snowkiting, Speedflying and -riding. It is light, comfortable, solid and also equipped with an LTF 91/09 certified PERMAIR protector.
The seat shell perfectly encloses the body and ensures a high comfort with low weight. When designing the geometry and flight dynamics, care was taken to ensure that the harness is intuitive, easy and safe to handle while coastal-soaring as well as in alpine conditions.
Since THE FLARE harness for their parakites do not require accelerators and disturbing pulleys the CONTOUR could be reduced in weight even further. The minimalistic designed back pocket with 15-liter capacity offers space for your packbag, the mouthpiece for filling the PERMAIR protector and small items for everyday use.
The PERMAIR protector combines the advantages of foam and ram air protectors. PERMAIR offers maximum damping with minimal weight and space requirement in the bag pack.
The modular design of the CONTOUR allows to separate the protector from the seat shell with just a few simple steps.
Features
The CONTOUR harness will be delivered as a complete set of the PERMAIR Protector and the CONTOUR Seat. It is strongly recommend flying the harness with a protector.
Easy Handling
The CONTOUR eliminates bulky buckles and adjustment straps. The elastic shoulder straps adapt to your size, ensure an optimal fit during the launch phase and rest comfortably on your shoulders in the air. Red and blue marked seams in the loops improve the overview while small Salewa sling protectors prevent the carabiners from twisting in the straps. In flight, insulation foam in the complete seat and elastic curved and comfortable tubes left and right aside your legs ensure an extremely comfortable fit and counteract the cold.
PERMAIR Protector
At the very top of Flare’s to-do-list for the CONTOUR-development was the integration of the Skywalk PERMAIR-Technology, in order to offer one of the most lightweight LTF 91/09 certified harnesses. The CONTOURs weight and packing size are thus specifically optimized for FLARE pilots.
