ACRO 4: THE ULTIMATE ACRO HARNESS!

• Double reserve parachute pocket
• Highly precise steering
• Great passive safety (Bumpair 17)
• Sizes : S / M / L
• Weight : 5900 g (Medium Size)

The geometry of the harness derives from the ACRO3, the reference in the ACRO world. Highly precise steering, mono block comfort to be as one with the wing in all maneuvers. The straps are now securely fastened to the chest strap for easier play on the ground.

Hours on end flying and running with the ACRO 3 let Théo, Tim, Raul and the SUPAIR designers overhaul the entire structure of the harness for a heightened end product.

All the riser sleeves are bigger, some are made of extensible material to easily accommodate any type of emergency parachute bridles (notably Rogallo type).

The parachute pockets have overlapping flaps offering an excellent container closing. Both parachute handles fit into the harness, are easy to grab, and highly visible without impeding manipulation.

The ACRO 4 is more equipped than the ACRO 3 and is delivered with multiple accessories.

“The ACRO 4 was a project close to my heart as a professional acro pilot because it is one of my main tools for day-to-day work. After years using the ACRO 3, I found it relatively easy to discover common grounds between the two models and a leading thread to follow for its replacement. It was a long-term project involving gradual upgrades to every important aspect of the product. We spent our season testing the ACRO 4 on the ground in real conditions to be certain to best match pilots expectations regardless of their technical level. Today I can say that we are proud of the end result made possible by SUPAIR and all the improvements made to the product along the way. I believe that the ACRO 4 is the perfect compromise harness for recreational and professional freestyle pilots alike, and will delight the ACRO 3 users because of all its assets derived out of our know-how and experience in this project”

TOP ACRO PILOT FEEDBACK

"We were looking forward to this harness , the challenge of outperforming the Acro3 was great but they did it! I am very happy to fly the Acro4 today. Very comfortable in flight, it offers a very good transmission which makes it possible to be ultra precise in piloting. I like the large rear pocket which allows me to store everything I need for the big Acro sessions. The parachute containers are compact and a remarkable effort has been made in the finishing touches. The era of the Acro4 has finally begun!" - Horacio Llorens - Professional pilot

"I love flying the Acro4 because it has a better back support than the Acro3 and it gives me more precision and freedom in the most committed figures. The changes made to the Acro4 make it more comfortable in all phases of the carry, take off and flight. In addition, it retains all the features that I liked in the Acro3." - Théo De Blic - Professional pilot

"I feel good in the Acro4, we kept the chassis of the Acro3 which was already very comfortable. Very precise and playful on flight, it is also pleasant to handle on the ground, the defects of the Acro3 have been erased, we have reached perfection! In addition, the Acro4 offers a great depth of seat which allows you to lower your centre of gravity, it's ideal to adjust your positioning and go even further in the control of manoeuvres." - Tim Alongi - Professional pilot

"The Acro 4 is a project that has been close to my heart as a professional acro pilot as it is one of my main working tools on a daily basis. After years of use of the Acro 3, it was quite easy to find ways to improve it and to find a line driver for its replacement. It was a long term project where we improved little by little everything that we thought was important. We spent our season testing the Acro 4 in the field in real conditions to make sure that it would meet the expectations of pilots at all levels. Today I can say that we are proud of the result Supair has achieved and the changes it has made. I think that the Acro 4 is the perfect compromise for all freestyle pilots, amateur or professional, and that it will delight all Acro 3 users because we have put all our know-how and experience into this project." - Théo De Blic - Professional pilot
