Harness User’s manual Flight phases Speedbar use. We recommend using the speed-bar cautiously due to the increased risk of a partial or full frontal collapses. Use the speed-bar/accelerator ( transitions ) only when far away from the ridge and in calm weather conditions as the wing becomes more sensitive to turbulence when accelerated.
Harness User’s manual Care Harness cleaning and maintenance. It is a good idea to clean your harness from time to time. We recommend using a brush and soft solvents only ( soap or mild cleaning agents ). Rinse thoroughly. Never use aggressive chemicals such as strong solvents which could be harmful to the fabric, webbings, stitching and weaken the overall integrity of the harness. The zippers should be lubricated from time to time using a silicon spray.
