Comments :

- As a BASE Jumper, I often wanted to be able to drop my paraglider when needed. We made self-drops with release systems on EVEREST mountain harness and a BASE bag on the back, but difficult to acro with! (comfort, resistance, without a board ...), and no second reserve if you fall in your sail ...

The BASE SYSTEM solves the problem: everything is there, with a design that astonishes! I was immediately comfortable in it and all the drop tests in all the configurations (autorotation, twisted, parachutal phase) confirmed to me that it is with the BASE SYSTEM that I want to fly in acro. And above all we can push the limits where we want, avoiding obstacles. I have not yet needed to use it in real life, but by flying in Chamonix above the ski lifts, screes, glaciers and the city, I am very happy to have this harness under the buttocks. Attention, it does not solve all the problems and it is not necessary to grilling the stages so much, but the ACRO BASE SYSTEM is a precious ally in the evolution of the pilots in aerobatics.

- I've been flying with the ACRO BASE SYSTEM since 2010 and I know there are a lot of things that I would not want to do without, especially anything that is D-bag, or acro in unwelcoming places.
