BODY PICTURE 2.0

The ultimate sobriety: The wing and the rider become one.

NEO integrated a speedriding harness to a Picture Organic Clothing ski suit. While designing this harness, NEO considered your safety: The Body Picture comes with an integrated CE certified back protection and offers an optional Airbag avalanche rescue backpack.

The speedriding harness

NEO is the only brand that developed a speedriding harness with a dedicated geometry specifically designed to favour the practice of skiing. Going from the sitting to standing positions becomes natural, fast and very easy. New this season, leg straps go into a sleeve for more comfort; they are to be donned and can be adjusted.

The back protection

The Body Picture 2.0 by NEO integrates a Koroyd EOP 2.0 back protection that is certified EN162-2 level 2 : it simply is the thinnest, lightest and more breathable back protection in the world.

NEO Stay Up 2.0

The StayUp is back in an improved version but faithful to the virtues than earned it its reputation. It is still as resistant due to the exclusive ripstop Dyneema material used, which proved itself in the last 5 years.

This second version is the result of a close collaboration with  our ambassador, Max Pinot and Tim Alongi . We live and fly at the same spot, which makes creativity and the sometimes daily modifications easy. 

The StayUp 2.0 is very similar to the last Promodel used in the latest H&F races such as X-Alps, Bornes to Fly and X-Pyr, among others. In order to meet the demands of flying in these competitions, we redesigned the 3D shape of the  NEO seat for more comfort, stability, and precision in handling.

PHILOSOPHY OF THE STAY UP

The StayUp is a high-end light pod harness suitable for experienced pilots as well as for pilots new to pod harnesses.

Whether it is for demanding hike and fly competitions or for everyday flying at your local site, the resistance and weight of the StayUp make it the ideal companion. Since the first generation, we have always emphasized in comfort and a sitting position that allow pilots to relax, fly longer and more confident by eliminating the embellishments and appendixes that do not contribute to performance and the athlete, and make the harness heavier. Our ambassadors  are very mindful of their efficiency and  NEO's DNA is of the same caliber.

A consistently lightweight harness with maximum safety for the hike & fly pilot

The Wanì light 2 has been one of our best-selling harnesses ever, thanks to all the feedback and constructive criticism you have sent us we could successfully come up with its all-round improved successor equipped as follows:

- New extra stable frame geometry

- Improved size system for added comfort

- New and more comfortable seatback

- Two new colour combinations

- Enlarged built-in parachute container under the seat

- Bigger and revamped built-in rucksack

- Optional Lightshield back protection

- Two-step speed bar included

- Rigid polypropylene seat

…whatever you want!

You’re sure to be impressed by the Brave 4, which features the modular Brave ZIPON System, making it the quick-change artist among convertible harnesses.

It takes just a matter of seconds to adapt the Brave 4 for your particular purpose, whether it’s ground handling, speed riding, speed flying, hike&fly or paragliding. It’s light in weight, but it still has impressive comfort and durability, and a sleek, minimalist design in whatever mode it is used.

The Brave 4 airbag module is unique for this category of harness. It is attached at seven points, thus forming, together with the harness module, an LTF-certified, compact unit. Its damping values are excellent for this class and compare well with modern standard harnesses.

CONNECT REVERSE 3

…even better!

The CONNECT REVERSE 3 with the Deuter® carrying system “Alpine Back” and many new features!

The third generation of the classic CONNECT REVERSE is available in four sizes, instead of the three sizes there have been previously. This makes it even more comfortable for pilots, since the geometry for the different sizes could be further refined. 

The well-proven design of this popular convertible harness was retained in principle, but a number of aspects were improved e.g. simplified conversion, speed bar retractor and trekking pole loops.

The optional new LIGHTSHIELD provides additional protection for the upper back area and, together with the airflow-independent airbag, forms a protective shield around the pilot’s back for better protection.

The “Alpine Back” carrying system made by backpack specialist Deuter® is of course used in the CONNECT REVERSE 3 as well, which guarantees unequaled carrying comfort. 

The CONNECT REVERSE 3 harmonizes perfectly with the new generation of RAST gliders with its ideal balance between comfort and agility, making it the number one choice for anyone looking for a durable and comfortable harness for extended hike & fly tours, travelling or simply for everyday flying.

Pogo 4

Pogo 4 is the latest version of our flagship harness designed for pilots flying cross country and competitions.

It is currently one of the lightest harnesses in its class. It is very comfortable and equipped with everything necessary for very long flights or competition racing. Its compact design guarantees a perfect union of the pilot and the harness.

During the design phase, Sławomir Kubiak the harness designer, devoted a lot of attention to refining the shape of the harness, especially its rear part. A harness of this class, apart from providing the pilot with the highest level of comfort, must also be carefully tuned aerodynamically, to minimize air resistance.

Pogo 4 is an almost completely new project and has little in common with its predecessor, apart from the highest quality and name.

The most important differences are:

• improved comfort (especially of the backrest)
• integrated container with space for two rescues as standard
• container for a “G-chute”
• enlarged cockpit with detachable glass and a pocket for a power bank
• new arrangement of risers, offering higher suspension
• enlarged ballast container
• optimized footrest shape
• Ronstan 30 pulleys installed for smoother speed system operation
• Edelrid Alias II Speed carabiners, guaranteeing higher suspension of the footrest as well as the cockpit position
• The pilot may choose to fly with or without a seat board
• improved aerodynamics, especially of the rear part of the harness
• dedicated radio pocket plus an additional one inside the harness
