ACCESS 3: GET OFF TO THE BEST POSSIBLE START
The ACCESS 3 harness is the perfect school and progression glider for paragliding pilot beginner as well as for instructors who want to equip their students with a safe,simple and comfortable harness.
Its use is designed to be intuitive, so that pilots quickly feel at ease when handling their equipment, and to make instructors' work as easy as possible, allowing everyone to concentrate on what's truly important: flying. Whether on a training slope, during inflation or on your first big flights, all the ACCESS 3's features have been designed to ensure that new pilots and their instructors can fly with complete peace of mind.
Safety is at the heart of the ACCESS 3's development. The harness is secured by two automatic buckles: as soon as one of the buckles is fastened, the pilot is safe. The legstrap straps are prominently marked in bright red, ensuring that the pilot immediately notices if they are not properly secured. Similarly, the instructor can quickly and easily verify that their pupil is securely fastened in the harness, even from a distance. Moreover, the new geometry with a 2-point attachment ensures ideal stability, allowing for the discovery of the activity with complete confidence.
To facilitate the use of the harness in school, the size is clearly indicated on the shoulder of the harness, allowing the instructor to quickly find the size needed for their pupil. Additionally, a plastic pocket on the back of the right shoulder makes it easy to identify the equipment.
All these elements have been designed to provide the ideal learning tool. ACCESS 3 saves time managing equipment and the school fleet, while allowing instructors to devote themselves fully to their core business: teaching.
Detailed technical description
At paraglider, there are two essential concepts that are the basis of our flying: pleasure and safety. If transmitting the pleasure of being in the air is the instructors' mission, ours is to make you fly safely.
The design ACCESS 3 is deliberately kept as simple as possible, so as not to overload the beginner pilot with too much information. Students quickly become familiar with the equipment, and can concentrate on the more technical aspects of glider management and piloting.
Take off in firsts class
Comfort is a key factor in the rider's enjoyment of flight.
The ACCESS 3 is equipped with a rigid foam back for increased comfort and a more uniform seat .
The harness has been designed around a chassis specially developed for frequent and easy sitting/standing. In fact, a more rigid backrest homogenizes the chassis, facilitating articulation between the backrest and the Seat of the harness. This movement is fluid and intuitive for the rider.
The ACCESS 3 offers three settings to adapt the harness to the rider's morphology.
- The backrest can be tilted to a more or less inclined position to suit the rider's preference.
- The adjustment shoulder strap for precise adaptation of the harness to the rider's size.
- The lumbar adjustment to adjust the seat depth and lumbar support to the rider's morphology.
Settings are essential for comfort at flight, especially for long flights. These features enable the ACCESS 3 to take pilots a long way before they feel the need to change equipment.
For optimum comfort during intensive use in a school setting or regular use as an autonomous pilot, the ACCESS 3 combines lightness and solidity through the use of high-quality materials. Its design ensures uncompromising durability while providing a pleasantly lightweight feel for training and inflation sessions.
Cordura fabric is one of the toughest and most resistant fabrics available for design from harness. As a result, you can perform floor exercises for hours on end without premature aging of the product.
With this choice of durable materials, the harness is nonetheless lightweight for its class, weighing in at under 3.9 kg, whatever the size or protection installed.
An ideal tool for schools
The ACCESS 3 has been designed not only for student comfort but also for the convenience of paraglider instructors. Numerous details make the harness efficient to use while ensuring its durability, even under intensive school use.
The materials used in this design have been selected for their robustness. School slopes and repeated inflation are no problem for the ACCESS 3, which will easily withstand the various stages of learning paragliding pilot beginner.
Interchangeable AIRBAG or BUMPAIR modules mean instructors don't have to replace the entire harness when the protection needs changing. Thanks to its durable structure, the ACCESS 3 can be used for a long time in the school park.
Following the training course, the autonomous pilot will be able to buy his harness school with new PPE, thus avoiding the need for the vendor to provide the PPE maintenance booklet. Once autonomous, pilots will continue to enjoy their harness for many hours at flight , thanks to extendedlife span .
The ACCESS 3's features have also been designed to make everyday life easier for both male and female instructors, with a clear indication of the cutting edge of the harness on the shoulder and the safety features indicated in red for quick and precise checking.
Simple, quick-relase fastening system
The ACCESS 3's locking system is limited to two automatic buckles to lock the legstraps to limit the number of pre-flight steps: as soon as only one of the two buckles is locked, the pilot is safe.
These straps are marked in bright red to make it easier for the pilot and instructor to control the attachment, even from a distance.
This two-point attachment system offers ideal stability for learning, as it dampens the movements of the glider to filter the information transmitted to the beginner pilot. The ACCESS 3 is a reassuring choice of equipment for gentle learning and gradual confidence-building.
To ensure pilot safety, the legstraps straps are marked with a bright red color to naturally attract the eye and be easy to control, whether for the person in the harness or the instructor supervising them.
Modular protection: your customised harness
Protection is one of the great new features of the ACCESS 3. You have the choice of equipping your harness with a foam bag or anairbag, depending on your personal preferences, while retaining the option of changing the protection whenever necessary.
If your terrain is abrasive and dusty, opt for robust, durable protection with the BUMPAIR module. If you're looking for lightness and compactness, choose the AIRBAG module!
In the event of significant impact to the protection, only the AIRBAG module or the BUMPAIR protective foam need be disposed of. Simply fit your harness with new protection and continue using harness.
This feature allows you to increase thel ife span of your equipment, as you don't have to replace the harness in its entirety when the effectiveness of the protection is no longer guaranteed due to impact, tearing, etc.
