must be secured with rubber bands.
As an alternative, you can connect
the two lines with softlinks if the size
of the loop on the reserve chute
allows this. Looping your reserve
chute with the V-lines is reliable and
safe using skywalk products when
you comply with condition such as
maximum tightening of the straps
and looping in the center.
We cannot make a binding statement
about the strength behavior when
looping with reserve chutes of other
manufacturers.
6. Finally, secure the connection with the
cover by placing the cover centrally over
the connection.
INSTALLING THE RESERVE CHUTE
1. Place the rescue with the lines down in
the rescue compartment of the BREEZE2
and the V-line untwisted next to it.
Guide the V-line upwards in the lateral
channel.
The markings on the inner container and
on the rescue compartment can help you
to install the rescue correctly.
2. Guide the two zipper sliders counter the
actual funtional direction to the opening
of the rescue compartment until the sliders
touch the stopper and place the connec-
tion strap of the inner container between
the two stoppers of the zippers, so that
the rescue is in the rescue compartment
and the handle is on the outside of the
harness.
The zippers must remain in this position
until the end.
Mounting the Reserve Chute 4342 Mounting the Reserve Chute
5 MOUNTING THE RESERVE CHUTE
The BREEZE2 can be combined with most modern reserve chutes. The reserve chute may
only be integrated in the outer container together with the supplied deployment
bag, keeping aware of the maximum volume of the reserve chute.
The maximum allowed volume must not be exceeded, otherwise a correct deployment
cannot be guaranteed.
The initial installation of the reserve chute must be carried out by an approved com-
patibility technician.This verifies the deployability of the reserve chute and certifies its
compatibility on the reserve chute’s packing and inspection document.
It is very important that the test release of the rescue device is carried out by the pilot
himself sitting in the harness in a harness simulator, as different physiques and forces
affect its deployability. Before installation, you must first check whether the reserve
chute needs to be repacked.
CONNECTING THE RESERVE CHUTE WITH
THE HARNESS
1. Remove your reserve chute from the
standard deployment bag and place it in
the open deployment bag of the
BREEZE2.
2. Make sure that the lines are arranged as
in the picture. Leave about 15cm of the
lines free and close the four leaves of the
deployment bag.
3. Secure the elastic loop with the bundle
of lines and make sure that the loop is
max. 3 cm long.
4. Thread the screw shackle cover supplied
with skywalk rescue systems onto the
V-line of the harness before connecting
the V-line to the rescue system.
5. Now you can connect the V-lines of
the BREEZE2 with the lanyard of your
reserve chute.
To connect the reserve chute to the
V-line, you must use a screw shackle
with at least 2400 daN strength.
The lines have to be connected on
both sides of the screw shackle and

PRO GUIDE // BREEZE2
ALWAYS RUN THE SPEED BAR LINE BETWEEN THE V-LINES AND THE HARNESS,
OTHERWISE DEPLOYMENT OF THE FRONT RESERVE COULD BE IMPEDED.
STEERABLE RESCUE PARACHUTES
The BREEZE2 can also be used with steerable reserve parachutes, provided that the
specified volumes are observed. To assemble the rescue system, two screw carabiners
with a total tensile strength of at least 2.400daN are directly connected to the color-
coded suspension points in the upper part of the V-line channel.
The control handles of the rescue system can be stored in the small compartment in
the upper part of the V-line channel. The straps are routed from the V-line channel
into the rescue compartment. The unused serial V-line can remain in the upper part
of the V-line channel.
During assembly, make sure that the control handles of the rescue parachute fit in the
upper part of the V-line channel and do not come into contact with the inner container.
COMPATIBILITY TEST
The correct installation of the reserve chute should now be verified with a test deploy-
ment. To do this, put on the harness, close the leg straps and hang the main carabiners
in a harness simulator. Then pull out the reserve chute by the handle.
For this test, it is not enough to deploy the reserve chute without sitting in the harness.
It must be possible for you to reach and pull the handle with no problem from the flying
position, in accordance with the instructions of this manual. The deployment force must
not be below 2 daN and must not exceed 7daN. In case of uncertainties you should con-
sult a specialist or contact your competent skywalk dealer.
The reserve chute must be deployed with the correct throwing technique, with a con-
tinuous and steady pull in a sideward movement away from the harness. Otherwise, de-
ployment may be difficult.
BEFORE EACH FLIGHT, CHECK TO SEE IF THE RESCUE HANDLE IS IN THE
RIGHT POSITION AND WHETHER THE SPLINTS OF THE HANDLE ARE SITTING
CORRECTLY. REACHING FOR THE RELEASE HANDLE TO TEST ITS POSITION
EVERY FLIGHT CAN HELP YOU MEMORIZE THE POSITION SUBCONSCIOUSLY.
44 Mounting the Reserve Chute Mounting the Reserve Chute 45
3. After the rescue is correctly placed in
the harness, it must be closed by
means of the cotter pins on the res-
cue handle. To do this you need two
short auxiliary lines (due to the low
friction we recommend unsheathed,
not too thin paraglider lines), which
you thread into the two loops on
the outer container. Pull the two loops
through the two eyelets with the help
of the auxiliary lines.
4. Secure the two loops with the cotter
pins on the rescue handle.
5. Insert the ends of the cotter pins into
the neoprene pockets.
6. Secure the handle in the neoprene
pockets, making sure that the handle
is not twisted and that the Velcro is
in the correct position.
7. Pull off the auxiliary lines carefully
and slowly. Moving too quickly could damage the loops.
8. The sliders of the zippers must still touch the stoppers, guide them back into
position in case they have slipped. Close the zippers completely, making sure
they disappear completely into the zipper garages.
9. Check that the cotter pins take up the tension on the zippers by holding the
harness above and below the rescue compartment and pulling it apart.
MOUNTING THE FRONT CONTAINER
To connect the front container statically with the harness, the front container should
be attached to the harness at least three places. You can read about how to pack the
reserve chute in the front container in the operating instructions of the front reserve
container. When installing the V-lines, the following points should be noted:
1. The V-lines are installed under a piece of Velcro at the height of the shoulder straps.
Open this Velcro and guide the V-lines through the small opening at the bottom of
the Velcro.
2. Close the Velcro again.
3. Open the piece of Velcro on the right and guide the V-lines through the channel.
4. Guide the V-lines in a circular arc with a radius of about 7 cm around the righthand
carabiner into the front container.

PRO GUIDE // BREEZE2
6 INITIAL SETUP
SPEED SYSTEM
The supplied speed system is already mounted on the seat of the harness when delivered.
However, the length of the speed bar travel must still be set individually on the paraglider.
Proceed as follows:
1. If the speed system is set too short, it won’t be possible to fully extend your legs.
2. If the speed system is set too long, the pulleys on the risers will not meet.
3. In the optimal case, your legs are stretched out fully just as the pulleys on the risers
of the paraglider touch each other.
4. To adjust the length, open the knot on the brummel hooks.
5. After finding the optimal length, tie the brummel hook with a bowline knot.
PERMAIR PROTECTOR
The BREEZE2 is a harness with permanent-airbag protector. The protector is approved
according to the rigorous criteria of LTF and meets these requirements when inflated.
The protector provides the best protection when fully inflated and can be inflated
with the Inflation Bag, the PERMAIR mouthpiece or the PERMAIR pump (optional).
skywalk recommends to use any of the three inflation aids mentioned above, as the
humid air you breathe can lead to condensation, which in turn encourages the forma-
tion of mold.
The protector can be removed via the zipper underneath the seat shell to make any
repairs. Make sure to keep sharp objects, such as sticks, away from the harness.
THE PROTECTOR IS NO SEAT CUSHION! SITTING ON THE HARNESS MAY
DAMAGE THE PROTECTOR OR SHORTEN ITS LIFE. IF YOU SUSPECT DAMAGE,
TEST FOR LEAKS. WHEN IN DOUBT, CONTACT YOUR SKYWALK DEALER OR
US DIRECTLY.
INFLATION BY INFLATION BAG
1. Make sure that there are no sharp or pointed objects on the ground.
2. Lay the harness flat on its side and make sure that there are no heavy objects on top
of the protector, making inflation difficult.
3. Open the small zippered compartment on the left front side under the seat shell.
4. Insert the valve into the valve base, making sure that the valve closes completely and
no gap remains. If the check valve is not yet fully seated in the base, press the valve into
the base with both thumbs until a slight click is heard and no gap is visible between the
valve and the base. This can be a little more difficult in colder temperatures, such as
in winter, and you should pay particular attention to this when the temperature is
below 10°C.
Initial setup 4746 Mounting the Reserve Chute
DEPLOYMENT OF THE RESCUE PARACHUTE
In the design of the release unit, the highest value was placed on ease of release.
The rescue release was checked in numerous tests in the G-Force simulator.
When releasing the rescue, pay attention to the direction of movement. Here you will
find an overview of ideal and rather unfavourable directions:
A reserve chute deployment can be made more difficult by the following
factors:
> The reserve chute is too large or too bulky for the compartment or the deployment bag.
> The reserve chute is not packed in the shape of the deployment bag.
> The reserve chute is not thrown with the appropriate throwing technique.
> The reserve chute has too much volume after repacking.
> Because arm length is crucial for a successful reserve chute deployment, smaller
persons with short arms may not be able to deploy the reserve chute.
> In emergency situations, high G-loading can occur, which can make deployment
even more difficult.

48 Initial setup
INFLATION BY PERMAIR PUMP
1. Follow step 1-4 from the description „Inflation by Inflation Bag“.
2. Put the PERMAIR adapter of the pump on the
pump outlet (grey adapter).
3. Connect the pump outlet to the valve.
4. The pump can now be easily switched on via
the On/Off switch. When filling, make sure
that the protector is not twisted.
5. As soon as the pump pressure corresponds to
the PERMAIR protector pressure, the pump
cannot pump any more air into the protector
and you can switch off and disconnect the pump.
The check valve prevents the air from escaping.
THE PUMP PRESSURE DEPENDS ON THE CHARGE LEVEL OF THE PUMP
BATTERY. WITH A FULLY CHARGED BATTERY, THE PUMP CAN BE USED
ABOUT 20 TIMES BEFORE IT NEEDS TO BE RECHARGED. AS A BACKUP,
YOU SHOULD ALWAYS HAVE THE PERMAIR MOUTHPIECE WITH YOU TO
INCREASE THE PRESSURE IN THE PROTECTOR IF NECESSARY.
FOR FLIGHTS WITH AN ALTITUDE DIFFERENCE OF MORE THAN 1500M
BETWEEN TAKE-OFF AND LANDING SITE, THE PROTECTOR MUST BE
ADDITIONALLY INFLATED WITH THE MOUTHPIECE.
PACKING AND COMPRESSING
To deflate the protector, simply pull the valve out of the valve base. Afterwards, the
BREEZE2 can be folded in half and stored in the inflation bag provided.
It is not necessary to deflate the protector after each flight. You can also stow the
harness inflated in the backpack for several flights per day, provided the backpack is
large enough. Nevertheless, the filling level of the protector must be checked before
each flight during the pre-flight check and adjusted if necessary.
HOOK IN THE PARAGLIDER
Between the paraglider and the harness there are two connection points per side (main
suspension and speed bar line). Make sure that both risers of the paraglider are connect-
ed to the carabiners of the harness without twisting and that the carabiner is fully closed.
In addition, the speed system of the paraglider must be connected to the speed bar of
the harness via the Brummel hooks. It is important that the speed bar line runs freely
along the outside of the harness without any obstacles. The proper connection between
the harness and the paraglider must be carefully checked before each launch.
Einstellen des Gurtzeuges 49Initial setup 49
5. Connect the PERMAIR connector of the inflation bag to the valve and make sure that
the connection of the inflation bag is not twisted.
6. Open the roll-top of the inflation bag. Blow into the opening from a
distance of about 20cm and close the inflation bag by rolling
the opening until pressure builds up inside.
7. Apply more pressure by pumping the inflation bag so that air
flows into the PERMAIR protector.
8. You will feel a pressure increase in the inflation bag
when the protector is completely filled.
It is not possible to pump more air into the
protector. The check valve will ensure that
no more air escapes.
9. Repeat steps 6-8 if the protector is not
completely filled.
10.Close the valve with the safety cap.
THE PROTECTOR IS ONLY LEAKPROOF WHEN THE BACK PRESSURE VALVE
SITS COMPLETELY IN THE VALVE BASE. DUE TO THE TEMPERATURE DE-
PENDENT MATERIAL BEHAVIOR, IT IS POSSIBLE THAT THE VALVE IS HARD
TO CLOSE AT TEMPERATURES BELOW 10°. IN ORDER TO STILL CLOSE THE
VALVE, IT IS HELPFUL TO PLACE THE HARNESS ON A HARD BUT SMOOTH
SURFACE AND THEN APPLY PRESSURE WITH BOTH THUMBS ON THE INNER
RING OF THE VALVE.
INFLATION BY PERMAIR MOUTHPIECE
1. Follow step 1-4 from the description above.
2. Connect the grey part of the mouth piece to the valve.
3. Make sure the HME-filter (heat moisture exchanger) is
inside the mouth piece (blue sponge) and start with infla-
ting by blowing inside the transparent opening.
4. The protector is fully inflated once you feel significant
resistance of air pressure when blowing inside.
AFTER USING THE MOUTHPIECE MAKE SURE IT DRIES OUT COMPLETELY
BEFORE YOU STORE IT AGAIN. FOR HYGIENIC REASONS PLEASE REPLACE
THE MOUTHPIECE AFTER TWO YEARS OR IF YOU SEE ANY SIGNS OF MOLD.

50 Harness adjustments Harness adjustments 51
Front pocket
The front pocket can be attached or removed as needed in the following steps:
1. Connect the two webbing clips on the underside of the cockpit with the chest strap.
2. For the third fixation point, the horizontal mounting clip should be passed around
the inside webbings of the get-up system.
Separating the cover and seat
1. Open the buckles left and right on the outside of the main suspension points.
2. Open the connection zipper to disconnect the cover from the seat.
3. To reconnect the cover to the seat, follow the steps in reverse order. It is important
that an unhindered reserve chute deployment is possible. If you are uncertain, then
make sure it works with a compatibility check.
PROPER USE OF AN LTF CERTIFIED PROTECTOR IS OBLIGATORY IN
GERMANY AND IS A REQUIREMENT FOR VALID INSURANCE COVERAGE OF
THE PILOT! REMOVING THE AIR-PROTECTOR IS DONE SO AT YOUR OWN
RISK AND IS THE FULL RESPONSIBILITY OF THE PILOT! DOING SO INVALI-
DATES THE LTF CERTIFICATION!
7 HARNESS ADJUSTMENTS
Together with your dealer, the BREEZE2 is adjusted and checked. You will then make
the basic adjustment yourself while sitting in a harness simulator.
Follow these steps to put on the harness:
1. Slip your arms through the shoulder straps.
2. Close the Get Up system (blue stitching right und red stitching left).
3. Close the sternum strap on your shoulder straps.
ADJUSTMENTS
The BREEZE2 offers the pilot the possibility to adjust the seating position.
Shoulder strap
The shoulder strap adjusters are used to adjust the harness to the upper body length of
the pilot. It should be noted that clothing during flight is also taken into account.
The length should be adjusted so that the shoulder straps make light contact with the top
of the shoulders in the flight position. A slight tension on the shoulder straps can improve
back support, but if the tension is too tight, it can cause fatigue in the shoulder muscles.
Back tilt
You can make an initial pre-setting of the seat position in the harness simulator.
During the test flight you can fine tune the back angle, because the airflow changes
the angle of the harness by 3-4° due to the air resistance.
The Edelrid adjusters attached to the BREEZE2 fix themselves automatically, for
adjustment they are best relieved.
Seat shell tilt
These adjusters allow the pilot to adjust the seat angle between the upper body and
thigh. Furthermore, this adjustment influences the sliding in and uprighting in the
take-off and landing phase.
For optimum flight adjustment, care must also be taken to achieve a balance between
relaxed flight position and desired takeoff and landing behavior.
Chest strap
The chest strap adjuster can be used to adjust the flight dynamics of the harness.
The tighter the chest strap, the more roll stable the harness becomes. However, the
yaw stability is reduced.

9 FLYING SAFE
PREFLIGHT CHECK
It is important to check all paragliding equipment thoroughly before every flight to see if it
has any defects. Also check the paraglider after long flights and after long storage.
Check thoroughly that:
> No visible damage to the harness or carabiners is present that can affect airworthiness.
> The reserve parachute container is correctly closed and is connected to the harness,
that the splints are threaded completely through the loops and that the rescue
handle is correctly mounted.
> All buckles, straps and zippers are shut and secured.
> The paraglider is correctly hooked to the harness and that both carabiners are correctly
closed and secured.
> The speedbar is properly hooked into the speed system of the risers.
> All pockets are closed and that no loose items are hanging around.
> The protector is filled.
> All straps are closed before you launch!
DO NOT LAUNCH IF YOU FIND ANY DEFECTS, EVEN SMALL ONES!
IF YOU FIND ANY SIGNS OF DAMAGE OR ABNORMAL WEAR AND TEAR,
CONTACT YOUR FLIGHT SCHOOL OR SKYWALK DIRECTLY.
BEHAVIOR IN THE EVENT OF A RESERVE CHUTE DEPLOYMENT
> Locate the rescue handle at the harness and hold it tightly with one hand.
> Pull the handle firmly away from the harness in a continuous and a sideward movement
to release the split pins and pull out the reserve chute.
> Make sure that you throw the reserve chute in the deployment bag into free airspace.
> If possible, throw it in the opposite direction of any rotational movement and let go of
the handle!
> Once the reserve chute is open, try to keep it from tangling and swinging. It is best using
the B- or the brake lines to pull the glider symmetrically toward you.
> When you land, straighten up as much as possible and use the parachute landing fall
(PLF) technique to minimize the risk of injury.
8 REPLACEMENT OF INDIVIDUAL PARTS
PERMAIR protector
The protector can be removed from the harness to perform a leak test or for replace-
ment. After every hard landing as well as every impact from a height of more than 0.5 m,
a leak test must be performed on the protector.
Carabiner
When replacing carabiners, make sure that both webbing loops (back support/main sus-
pension) are passed through the carabiner.
Quick-Out carabiners can´t be installed on the BREEZE2.
Accelerator
In case of excessive wear or damage of the accelerator, it is possible to replace the accel-
erator in the following steps:
1. Open the bowline knot of the accelerator line on the Brummel hook.
2. Open the knot on the elastic line which is connected to the accelerator pulley.
3. Now the old accelerator can be disassembled.
4. Thread the main line through the accelerator pulley from bottom to top.
Make sure that the line is guided on the outside of the main suspension and not
between main suspension and the seat.
5. At both ends of the main line, the Brummel hooks can be fixed to the desired
position with a bowline knot.
6. Thread the elastic line through the opening of the accelerator pulley and secure the
line with a figure eight knot.

Operating limits 5554 Flying safe
10 OPERATING LIMITS
The harness may only be flown within the operating limits. This limit is exceeded as soon
as one of the following occurs:
> Flying outside the maximum permissible take-off weight.
> Flying in the rain, in snowfall, in extremely turbulent weather conditions or in
strong winds.
> Flying in clouds or fog (visual flight).
> Flying with insufficient pilot experience.
> Flying with multiple seats.
> Flying with wet canopy.
> Flying in temperatures below -15°C and above 50°C.
> Aerobatics (flight maneuvers with an inclination of more than 135 degrees).
The BREEZE2 is approved according to DIN EN 1651 for a maximum pilot weight of 120 kg.
Due to the higher stress on the material, it is strongly discouraged to fly extreme flight or
acro maneuvers.
The Edelrid Foras carabiner is a lightweight product and requires special care:
> Do not use the carabiner if there is any visible external damage or wear.
> Avoid transverse loads, strokes and do not drop the carabiner.
> The carabiner should be replaced after 5 years or 500 hours.
WINCH-TOWING
The BREEZE2 is suitable for winch towing. It has no special towing loops. The tow release
is hooked either to the main carabiners or, preferably, to a towing adapter which is passed
over the ends of the risers before they are hooked into the main carabiners.
Follow the instructions in the manual for your tow release and tow adapter or consult a
flight instructor who has experience with winch-towing.
SKYWALK EXPRESSLY WARNS OUT THAT TURNING
THE MAIN CARABINER AROUND TO POINT OPPOSITE
THE DIRECTION OF FLIGHT IS STRICTLY PROHIBITED!
REASON: THE WEBBING COULD CHAFE AND GET DAM-
AGED BY THE LOCKING MECHANISM OF THE CARABINER.
WHAT TO DO IN EMERGENCY SITUATIONS AND EXTREME FLIGHT CONDITIONS
Disturbances of the paraglider that are caused by thermal lift or turbulence are trans-
mitted perceptibly via the harness mounts to the seat.
To avoid getting tipped to the side, make sure that you are always sitting in the middle of
the harness. Also make sure that you don’t lose your grip on the brake handles so that you
can react quickly and without delay to extreme flight conditions. Read about the behavior
of your glider in extreme flight conditions in the appropriate manual.
Should you fly into an object or land in a tree, be calm and notify the authorities.
FLYING ON BAR
The speed bar should be secured to the harness prior to launch. To use the speed bar, you
will need to make some effort. This can affect the sitting position in the harness.
Therefore, we recommend an upright position in the harness. Adjust the harness be-
fore your first attempt of flying on bar. We remind you to only fly in wind conditions that
don’t require constant use of the speed bar. To reach the maximum speed, press the
speed bar firmly until both pulleys on the A-risers touch each other.
As soon as you apply the speed bar, the angle of attack will be reduced and the speed
increases, but the paraglider becomes less stable and can collapse more easily.
For this reason, always use the speed bar with adequate altitude over the ground and
distance from obstacles and other aircraft. Avoid adjusting the speed bar too short.
It is important to avoid unintentionally activing the speed system due to a setting that is
too short. Collapses on bar are normally more impulsive and demand fast reactions.
NEVER FLY ON BAR IN TURBULENT AIR.
NEVER FLY ON BAR NEAR THE GROUND.

PRO GUIDE // BREEZE2
Maintenance, care 5756 Operating limits
11 MAINTENANCE, CARE
The selected materials used in the BREEZE2 make it necessary to treat them carefully and
in a professional manner. Make an effort to take care of your harness and keep it clean to
preserve its airworthiness over the longest possible time.
> Avoid dragging your harness over stony ground and always try to land in an
upright positon.
> Don’t leave your harness lying in the sun unnecessarily long. UV radiation is very
damaging to the material.
> Store it in the bag when you don´t use it.
> Store your paragliding equipment loosely packed in a cool and dry place. If it gets wet
always dry out your equipment before packing it.
> To clean it, just use a brush or a damp cloth. Use mild soap to clean it only when abso-
lutely necessary. If you do, first remove other parts like the reserve parachute.
The coating of the material can be damaged by brushing or rubbing.
> Let the harness dry in a well-ventilated, shady place if it was wet. If the reserve para-
chute gets wet, (e.g. during a water landing), then it is necessary to open it up, let it
dry, and pack it again.
> After a hard landing or an impact higher than 0.5m, check the protector for damage.
> Zippers should be treated with silicon spray once a year.
MATERIALS
The skywalk BREEZE2 is made exclusively from high-quality materials. skywalk has selected
the best possible combination of materials in terms of resilience, weight and durability.
We are aware that the durability of the equipment is one of the decisive factors for the
satisfaction of the pilot, but due to the choice of material and construction of the har-
ness we would like to point out that the harness is more prone to wear and damage if
used improperly.
The lifespan of this product is highly dependent on your mindfulness.
The following activities can significantly reduce the lifespan of your BREEZE2:
> Acrobatic flight maneuvers
> (Coastal) soaring with permanent touch & go
> Extensive ground handling
> Improper handling of the equipment
TANDEM FLIGHT
The BREEZE2 is not a suitable harness for tandem flight.
SAFETY TRAINING AND FLYING OVER WATER
It is not recommended to use the BREEZE2 for flights over water or for safety
training. There is a possibility that the PERMAIR protector could push the pilot under
water after a water landing due to the buoyancy of the protector. Should you neverthe-
less use the harness for flights over water, we explicitly advise you to wear a life jacket.
LIFETIME
The harness is your direct connection point to your paraglider. You are responsible for
checking the harness before each use. If you have any doubts about its safety, do not use
the harness under any circumstances and contact your skywalk dealer.
All webbing, thread, cloth and hardware have a limited life span. To determine if your har-
ness is still safe, you should inspect it according to the inspection protocol attached at
the end of this manual. skywalk harnesses that are properly stored and meet all inspec-
tion criteria can be used for up to 10 years from the sample inspection date.
You can find the sample inspection date on the sample inspection tag located in the
V-line compartment of your harness. Please keep in mind that some factors that affect
the life of your harness are not visible.
You should know the full use history of the harness. You should know what environmental
influences (UV light, salt water, extreme heat, etc.) or chemical influences (aggressive
cleaners, petroleum, oils, lubricants, acids, etc.) the harness has been exposed to.
If the harness has been subjected to a great deal of stress, such as a rescue deployment,
crash, or tree landing, it should no longer be used and should be destroyed immediately.
Dispose of harnesses that are obsolete due to new regulations or standards, or that
are incompatible with other safety system equipment. It is your responsibility to know
these factors. If there is any doubt about its condition, you should stop using the har-
ness and destroy it.
BE CAREFUL WHEN FLYING OVER WATER!

Repairs | Disposal | Homologation 5958 Maintenance, care
12 REPAIRS
Repairs should only be carried out by the manufacturer or by an authorized skywalk
service center. Exceptions include the repair of small cuts (up to about 3cm that don’t
affect a seam).
CHANGES TO THE HARNESS
Your skywalk BREEZE2 is manufactured within the regulated parameters of
tolerance. These parameters are very narrow and must not be altered under any
circumstance.
UNAUTHORIZED CHANGES INVALIDATE THE TYPE APPROVAL AND ALL
LIABILITY CLAIMS AGAINST THE MANUFACTURER AND ITS DISTRIBUTORS
ARE INVALIDATED.
13 DISPOSAL
When choosing materials, skywalk places high value on environmental compatibility and
the highest quality control. Should your harness someday no longer be flyable, remove all
metal parts. All remaining parts can be turned in at a recycling center. The metallic parts
can be turned in at a metals recycling center. The best solution is to send your retired
skywalk harness directly to us. We will then take care of recycling it.
14 HOMOLOGATION
The BREEZE2 is certified to EN as well as LTF standards
The BREEZE2 is defined as a lightweight sport aircraft with an empty weight of less than
100 kg in the paraglider category.
The many homologation tests are the last hurdle in the development of a skywalk harness.
The homologation tests only take place when the test team is completely happy with the
harness development.
MAINTENANCE CHECKLIST
In addition to your normal preflight procedure, you should also take a close look at your
BREEZE2 after the reserve parachute has been packed and re-installed – normally
every six months but no later than every twelve months. Naturally, it’s important to also
check your harness closely after unusual circumstances, for example after a hard landing or
a tree landing, or if the harness shows above-average wear and tear. When in doubt, always
consult an expert.
Here is what to check:
> Check all straps and buckles for wear and tear and damage.
> The stitching of all seams should be checked and, if in doubt, should be repaired to keep
problems from propagating.
> Both carabiners should be renewed after no more than 5 years or maximum 500 flight
hours. Impact to the carabiners can result in invisible damage that could lead to failure
during use.
> Perform a leak test for the PERMAIR protector.
The documentation for service work should be entered with the name of the repair person,
stamp and signature.
LEAK TEST
After a hard landing or fall from a height of more than 0.5m, a leak test should be per-
formed on the protector in order to be able to detect any damage before the next flight
and to remedy it subsequently.
Follow these steps:
1. Remove the protector from the harness.
2. Inflate the removed protector so that the outer edges of the nameplate measure 83mm.
3. Store the protector at a constant temperature for 12 hours in a shady room.
4. After the time has elapsed, check the fill level of the protector by measuring the outer
edges of the nameplate again. The length must not be less than 81mm.
5. If the protector meets the requirements under point 4, it can be reinstalled.
STORAGE
Ideal is a dry, dark place with a constant temperature. Moisture is an old enemy of
the durability of all paragliding equipment. For this reason, always dry your equipment
before you store it, preferably in a heated and well ventilated room, so that moisture
can evaporate. Make sure the inflate/deflate valve of the PERMAIR protector remains
open when storing the harness for a longer period.

17 NATURE AND ENVIRONMENTALLY COMPATIBLE BEHAVIOR
We have taken the first step towards ecological awareness with our nature-friendly
sport. Especially with our mountain climbers who prefer to climb to the launch site.
Nevertheless, we plan on continuing in the same vein. This means specifically: clean
up your trash, stay on marked trails and don’t cause unnecessary noise. Please help
to maintain the balance of nature and to respect animals in their territory.
18 CLOSING WORDS
The skywalk BREEZE2 is at the absolute leading edge of development in the market for
modular harnesses. It cost us a lot of time to develop this harness, but it was also a lot
of fun. In this development we recognize the challenge of making the right product for
every area and individual taste. We are pleased if you notice this during your first flight
and if you feel a certain unity with your glider from the very beginning.
The BREEZE2 will provide you with plenty of joy over many years if you treat it and care
for it properly.
Respect for the demands and dangers of our sport are essential for successful and
beautiful flights. Even the safest paraglider or harness can be dangerous due to mis-
judgments of meteorological conditions or pilot error. Always remember that flying
sports are potentially risky and that you are responsible for your own safety.
We advise you to fly carefully and to respect laws in the interest of our sport, because
every pilot always flies at his or her own risk!
WE WISH YOU A LOT OF FUN WITH YOUR NEW HARNESS
AND ALWAYS HAPPY LANDINGS!!
Your skywalk Team
15 MAINTENANCE CHECK
