XC POD HARNESS

2018: NEO created a new type of pod harness, the Suspender: a bucket seat harness that is light, stable, steerable, precise, comfortable, and accessible. 

The geometry of the Suspender became a reference.

2023:Version 2.0 is available. Based on the same principles, we worked for 3 years to improve our high-end cross country pod harness.

The Suspender 2.0 was designed for cross country pilots who fly often, but also for those starting.

"Comfortable as a couch", in the air as well, and very accessible to pilots new to pod harnesses.

Several technological innovations and accessories provide maximum safety to the pilot.

The harness is entirely made in France, at NEO’s workshop on the shores of Lake Annecy, which guarantees a top-of-the-range finish, durability, and efficient customer service.

GEOMETRY 
CLASSIC ABS

Basic work was done on the geometry and the seat, 

To match our philosophy: 

" Harnesses must first of all fly well, and rucksacks must have good support."

On the Suspender 2.0, the focus of our work was:

  • Choosing and precise adjusting a "classic" ABS: the Suspender can be flown with high aspect ratio gliders that require ABS (Anti Balance System) for a more precise handling in thermals and glides like on rails.
  • Better ABS to dampen a symmetric shooting in thermals and sudden wingtip surges.
  • Roll is managed with fine adjustments to the chest strap width.

GEOMETRY 
A UNIQUE ADJUSTMENT

The chest-strap setup (between 42 and 49 cm) has a big impact in roll.  

Two NEO tags serve as reference: when overlapped, they indicate a width of 45 cm.

GEOMETRY 
A PERFECT BALANCE

  • Perfect placement of the center of gravity, the base to design any harness, for balance and stability.
  • Perfect adjustment of the longitudinal balance to manage yaw.
  • Perfect overall balance to find the right compromise between stability, feedback of the airmass, turn start and management.
  • The geometry stays fully active regardless of the flying speed.

GEOMETRY 
IN FLIGHT

  • More dynamic turn start than version 1.0.
  • External thigh support to retain the turn energy allowing to carve it.
  • Better stability and behavior on speed.
  • Ultra-precise turn management.

NEO D BUCKET SEAT 

3D PRE-SHAPED SEAT COMFORT

The Suspender is a pod harness that’s different from the rest.
It’s a bucket seat: a hybrid between a hammock and a seatboard harness.

We integrated a NEO-Koroyd,that provides precision, rigidity from halfway up the seat to the upper back, and prevents the turn energy from dissipating.


 

NEO 3D BUCKET SEAT 

PRE-SHAPED SEAT COMFORT

  • Unmatched comfort in a paragliding harness.
  • The balance between the bucket seat and the pod allow the upper body and legs to relax. 
  • The comfort and precision of a competition harness in a light and compact package.
  • The back rigidity allows the pilot to fly with loose shoulder straps and prevent back fatigue on long flights.
  • Better foam density on the seat, for improved comfort on long flights.
  • Easy and precise adjustments: on the side, depth/lower back, chest, shoulders, and upper chest.

SPEED SYSTEM

MORE EFFICIENT AND COMFORTABLE

On this 2.0 version, comfort was significantly improved.

 

ACTIVE SAFETY

Same basic in-flight active safety features as in version 1.0:

  • The Suspender can be flown in a sitting position and provides support right after launching or in turbulence.
  • The geometry provides peace of mind thanks to its stability in turbulence or during an incident, and facilitates active flying.
  • Effortless and easy-to-find rescue handle placed on the axis of the main carabiner.
  • Large back rescue container for easy extraction.
  • Easy to step into the pod.
  • G-chute pockets (left or right) are easy to access and have a passage to connect the drag chute to the main lower strap.
