Tim was A+ to deal with. I called him for stock availability and he went above and beyond by helping me work through (multiple times) what harness solution would suit me best. Excellent knowledge about the sport, its sub-disciplines and the equipment. Thanks again!
Excellent experience dealing with Tim at Paragliding Shop! He was extremely friendly, responsive and easy to communicate with throughout the whole process. Great customer service and a genuinely pleasant buying experience. Highly recommended!
Tim was awesome to deal with and got me an amazing deal on a new Ozone glider. Great communication, support and service. Beautiful wing, took me straight to base. Stoked.
Fast, reliable, friendly, supportive, even spent hours with me on site teaching me to fly. Ongoing support even a year after purchase.
Just bought some gear here. They gave some good advice on the phone and it was dispatched within the hour!
Awesome customer service, I ordered a glider and Tim provided me with consistent updates on the delayed delivery time.
Excellent products and service. They went above and beyond helping me with every step. Bought Flare Moustache and absolutely love flying it!!
Great service - right time right price for me, prompt ordering and delivery. Looking forward to new adventures on my new wing - thanks Tim!
Very happy with the paragliding shop. Great customer service with a nice price point. My Zero 3 is an absolute weapon. Ozone is the bomb.
Has the best customer service in Australia and sells the best paragliding brands for sure!
The Safari pilot 3 aims to make work as easy as possible for professional tandem pilots. It's a split-leg harness that's compact, light, durable and super comfortable in flight. It's also packed full of safety features.Perfect pilot position
We put a lot of effort into finding the best pilot position in terms of piloting efficacy, balance and stability of the pilot/passenger unit. The “lay front” position offers great control and visibilty, but is still inclined sufficiently to offer great support.
Comfort: second to none
Low packed volume
High durability, low weight
Durable does not have to mean heavy. Our well proven 210D Rosetta fabric provides a long lifetime of heavy use and naturally resists dust and dirt.
Stable in flight
Packed with safety features
Buckles are Edelrid triple lock: simple to open and close, yet impossible to open accidentally. Even if the release button is accidentally pressed, the snap fastener remains hooked into the frame. The back protector has been upgraded to our Aerobean protector (22cm), which offers the best protection for the lowest weight. The rescue bridle tunnel is fully enclosed even on the spreader, which prevents the rescue maillons moving around.
Convenient storage and pockets
Storage and pockets have been carefully considered in conjunction with the Safari passenger 3 harness. The pilot harness has ample storage for a fast packing rucksack or bag, whereas the passenger harness has a large storage capacity in the back pocket to store the passenger’s personal belongings (e.g. shoes). This back pocket also features several mesh compartments, which can be accessed by the pilot in flight. These can be used to store spare batteries, SD cards etc. Externally, there is a detachable pocket for a selfie stick and/ or GoPro and side pockets to store other small items, such as a phone.
Perfect partners
Built to last
A reinforced skid guard on the bottom of the airbag offers protection against wear and tear and can be easily removed and replaced if it becomes worn or damaged.
Removable back protection
Designer Ho Woong Lee explains the philosophy behind the Safari 3 pilot and passenger harnesses:
“The goal with these harnesses was to make everything as easy as possible for working tandem pilots. We took a lot of feedback from pilots all over the world and spent considerable time using the prototypes in real conditions.
One of the most satisfying remarks from pilots was how comfortable the harnesses are to sit in and how the geometry and hang position is great for comfort, security and stability. Pilots can really work all day, every day without fatigue or discomfort.
The passenger also has a better flight too. The stability of the harnesses is well suited to more sensitive passengers and the balanced landing position makes it easier to achieve a gentle touch down.
We also paid a lot of attention to achieving compact packing and long term durability, and there are lots of small touches to improve ease-of-use and security. Overall we believe these harnesses will prove to be exactly what many professionals are looking for.”
Automatic aluminium carabiners have a limited lifetime due to metal fatigue. They must be replaced after 5 years or 500 flight hours, whichever is soonest. They should never be used between spreaders and tandem wing risers as main carabiners. They should also never be used to connect bridles to the reserve.
