Light Tandem Pilot Paragliding Harness

The 2Light is a lightweight tandem pilot harness. Designed from the ground up with professional tandem pilots in mind, it will equally serve leisure pilots and can even be used as a full feature solo harness!
No compromises were made on comfort, safety or durability and after hundreds of hours of pilot feedback, we are proud of the 2Light.

LIGHTWEIGHT – almost “too light” the harness starts at 1.55kg. (2.15kg. with airfoam and lexan plate) but as traditional for APCO, is extremely durable made from well proven and real life tested materials.

 

SPLIT LEGS –  the harness features a split leg design, allowing elimination of the seatboard and therefore a big weight saving.

The split legs are reinforced internally and externally to insure that they do not stretch, fold or in any way change their comfort throughout the life of the harness. Secured with Finsterwalder design hook buckles and Left/Right color coded for easy ground set-up.

The design is adjustable with 2 different adjustable webbings on both top and bottom of the legs and reaches an amazing level of comfort in the air and more importantly also on the ground.

 

SIDE POCKETS – the back pocket features 2 internal smaller pockets for keys and small items + dedicated water hose exit and is good for stowing paragliding bag and more.

But, the real treat of this harness are 2 zipped on side pockets, which are easily accessible in flight with one hand operation. Open the zipper for selfie stick support or use in flight for food, clothing and camera – they are just so useful, you will wonder how you ever coped without them!

 

RESERVE PARACHUTE – most importantly in case of need, it opens extremely easily with minimal force. The compartment is closed by 2 zippers design, sealing it against all elements – no more snow, sand or stones in your reserve compartment, even if you have to sit on it waiting for conditions. The last flap of the zippers is magnetic and allows easy open/close snap for preflight “handle secured” – check. A dedicated reserve bridle channel runs on each side and exits from the front of the shoulder pads towards the spreader bar.

 

PROTECTION – under the seat foam protector (EN certification pending) is made from open cell PU foam and backed up with an additional lexan plate to protect from penetration and further improve the efficiency of the airfoam in case of sharp hits. The airfoam “floats” under the seat allowing the legs to freely move without constraints and if needed can be removed to create additional storage space, saving approx. 600gr. The reserve parachute is positioned behind the lower back, to extend the airfoam in case of ground impact during bad take-offs (or when the reserve is still there).

PASSENGER – Recommended to be paired with HIKE harness. Optional airbag available on the HIKE for passenger protection.

 

SOLO USE – the 2Light is a tandem harness, but if needed is also a full feature, solo use harness.

Reserve parachute hang points on the shoulders are ready to use in case of solo flying.

Add two pulleys and you also have a fully functioning speed system option.

    Can I Use the 2 Light for Solo Flights?

    Yes!
    The 2 Light is also very suitable for solo flying.
    The reserve Bridles should be connected to the shoulder attachment points.
    The harness is ready to accommodate a speed bar, and should be fitted with the optional Ball Bearing pulleys

    What is the volume of the back storage container?

    The storage is big enough to fit an average tandem glider backpack, and a drinking bladder.

    If additional storage is needed we recommend adding the optional side pockets

    Airbag Protection?

    The APCO Airbag is recommended for use on the Passenger harness only as it requires a clear frontal area for proper inflation.

    When using the Airbag on the 2Light in tandem use, it may not inflate properly due to opbstruciton of airflow by the passenger harness.

    We recommend the use of HIKE harness as passenger harness together with HIKE Cygnus Airbag
