IMPORTANT: The speed bar lines must be of equal length,
make sure that they are not too short as this will inadver-
tently activate the speed system when under tension in
the air. Always double-check length and symmetry on the
ground before flying.
Once in the air, and when it is safe to do so, check that you can place
your foot on the bar easily and that the system operates smoothly all
the way to full speed.
Buckles
Attach the speed bar with a
Bowline knot.
The leg straps and chest strap
are connected using quick re-
lease buckles. When fastening
ensure that the male and fe-
male parts connect in a smooth
and positive way, an audible
click should be heard.
WARNING: Do not unfasten buckles in flight.
ADJUSTMENTS
All adjustments can be made in the air, but it is a good idea to sus-
pend the harness first to make the initial adjustments.
Leg straps
6
Make sure that no parts of
clothing or any other object is
caught between the male and
female parts of the buckle. Al-
ways double or even triple check
that the connections are secure
before flight.
Leg straps should be adjusted
whilst in a standing position so
that they are not too loose and
not too tight. If the leg straps are
too loose you will find it difficult
to rotate into the seated position
after take off. If they are too tight
you will find it difficult to run, they
may also cut off circulation to
your vitals!
