Woody Valley Race with Inflatable Protection. The RACE is a super light harness born from the evolution of the RACE PRO, which is the most "extreme" version used by Woody Valley athletes in the main hike & fly competitions. Woody Valley managed to come up with this product also thanks to the help of Aaron Durogati and several other pilots who have been flying this harness intensively and provided us with precious feedback and suggestions. The RACE is suitable for hike & fly, bivouac and XC pilots.

Flybubble Note: Ultra-light gear must be handled with care to extend its lifespan. Mechanical stresses and improper handling can cause faster wear and tear compared to standard-weight gear. Designed for hike and fly activities, ultra-light gear prioritizes weight savings over durability and other factors. To avoid damage, refrain from extreme activities or excessive ground handling. Gentle treatment is crucial for longevity and safe operation.

Woody Valley Race with Inflatable protection: Ultra light and performing.

New stabilization system

New stabilization system of just 89 grams allows you to change the harness geometry without taking your hands off the brakes.

If you are not interested in using the stabilization system, their advice is not to remove it but to simply hide the lines into the strategic pocket.

New protection concept

When developing the Race Pro (the extreme version) Woody Valley needed to create a high-performance, super light protection that would be as compact and streamlined as possible..

Given the numerous inflatable protection fans, they decided to keep it (like for the GTO Light 2) but in its new versione (IPE) made with lighter materials.

Inflatable protection (IPE)

70% less bulky when deflated

Rescue parachute

Rescue parachute compartment max volume: 5.6 litres (just like their QUADRO 140)

Magnet on the rescue handle to keep it secured to the harness.
