PILOT

Thank you for choosing the Davinci Harmony PILOT harness.
This harness is designed for the Tandem pilot who shares the sky with their family,
friends and all of precious customers.
It has been designed to effectively protect the pilot from the any unexpected
condition.
Although the HARNESS has been certified of EN 1651 and LTF NfL II 91/09,
paragliding is a dangerous sport that can be caused injury, physical disability and
even death.
To reduce the risk to the pilot, we invest and challenge a lot of research and
development. We wish you a comfortable and safe flight with the Harmony pilot.
Thank you
-Davinci Gliders team-
