PILOT PROTECTION
Foam Protector and Lexan Sheet
The EDGE has a pilot protection system, combining the usual airfoam type protector with a
lexan sheet (47143) which aids in spreading the load over the absorbing area of the
airfoam and a Polystyrene side impact protector which offers the maximum
protection available to a paraglider pilot today.
Test results conducted by DHV confirm that our standard 15cm Airfoam protector is fully in
line with DHV requirements when used in combination with Edge type harness.
Side Protectors
It is fitted by opening the zip running along the bottom of the harness,
below the seat board, and connecting it to two rubber bands through
the slits made in the side protector (make sure to put the rubber band
through the slit from the flat side of the side protector to the round side of it).
Slide the side protector to its place and close the zip running along the bottom of the harness.
The EDGE has an integrated emergency parachute compartment, designed to the standard specifications.
It is ideally suited to take the range of APCO Mayday parachutes which have proven themselves
time and time again, saving hundreds of pilots over the years
Attaches your harness to the risers of your glider.
