With the RANGE X-ALPS we’ve raised the bar for lightweight pod harnesses to a new level. The serial version of the harness that we developed for the Red Bull X-Alps weighs exactly 960 grams (excl. carabiner, protector, cockpit). The LTF-tested foam protector (380g) brings the weight to hardly more than 1,3 kg.
At Red Bull X-Alps, the RANGE X-ALPS was the most sought after harness among the athletes. Based on the experiences of our three team pilots Paul, Stephan and Ivan, we are now introducing THE harness of the world’s toughest adventure race in a limited series. With many improved details, this new version is aimed at pilots who compete in hike&fly events, XC pilots who optimize their gear down to the last gram, and pilots who go on multi-day bivouac tours.
As with the original RANGE AIR that debuted in 2014, the RAM AIR filled outer skin ensures optimal aerodynamics. In critical situations the removable foam protector offers deceleration values well within LTF limits and can also be used as a pillow. The reserve chute container is placed below the seat shell.
The storage area in the rear fairing offers room for enough equipment for a multi-day bivouac tour.
Spliced adjustment straps allow you to set up the harness to your individual needs. Together with the fiberglass reinforced seat shell, the harness is remarkably comfortable so that you can fly for hours.
Sizes
The RANGE X-ALPS is available in two sizes, SM small/mediun &L large, both of which are LTF certified.
You don’t need to plan to compete in the Red Bull X-Alps to learn about the advantages of the RANGE X-ALPS. The harness is extremely light, packs compactly and is an especially comfortable companion for hike&fly-adventures, bivouac tours, or just going on vacation.
