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.

It is light enough for extended hike and fly trips, and its construction and the materials used guarantee durability and easy handling both on the ground and airborne. The protector options and removable seat board allow you to optimize the Connect Race Lite according to your particular needs and purpose.

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.

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.

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

Soul 2021

Light pod harness for XC pilots looking for some comfort coupled with small weight.

Soul 2021 is a light and comfort harness designed for XC flights.

Soul 2021 compared to its predecessor, it is basically a completely new harness – only its purpose is similar.

The basic goal of this design was improving the pilot’s comfort in long flights, while keeping its small weight. Due to light materials the harness weighs just 3,5 kg in M size.

Ventilated backrest and a new, ergonomic seat with profiled seatplate ensure maximum comfort during the flight.

Large adjustment range makes sure that every single pilot will be able to find his/her optimum. Redesigned strap scheme brings great stability and significantly reduces danger of launching with leg/chest straps not locked properly. 

The harness is equipped with a 15 cm thick, certified airfoam.
