Gii 5 ALPHA

The Gii 5 ALPHA harness builds upon the exceptional improvements of the Gii 5, offering pilots a whole new level of comfort, roll stability, and complete functionality from take-off to landing.

The redesigned 4S strap system ensures comfort and simplifies getting in and out of the harness. Just lift your knees to assume a seating position, and for landing, easily stretch your legs out.

The leg straps on the Gii 5 ALPHA accommodate any leg length or girth without requiring adjustments.

Enhanced roll stability during flight is achieved with a narrower seat board and revised ABS geometry, maintaining the ease of weight shift.

The newly designed backrest contributes to the overall pilot comfort, creating an enjoyable flying experience.

The Gii 5 ALPHA embodies simplicity in the best sense, making it easy to set up and use, providing everything a pilot needs from initial flights to thermal soaring and even those thrilling first XC journeys.

With side pockets, a removable radio pocket, and a Camelbak compartment in the back, the Gii 5 ALPHA enhances its versatility, serving as the ideal harness for everyday light gear, hike & fly, or even XC flights.

When it comes to safety, the Gii 5 ALPHA is universal, accommodating either a foam back protector or the Sky Blow Bag, reducing bulk and weight.

The new 3-flap container under the seat can be configured to accept an optional ejection system for your rescue parachute. A cartridge with pressurized air accelerates the deployment, shrinking the deployment time to less than 1 second. The traditional rescue handle with Nitinol wire reinforcement remains functional independently.

The main distinctive features are:

• Revised Sky Safety Strap System (4S) for enhanced comfort and user-friendliness.

• Compatible with foam back protector or Sky BlowBag.

• Easy in-flight strap adjustments.

• Innovative safe-T chest buckle connected to the left leg strap, preventing accidental oversights.

• Lightweight design (3.2 kg in size S with foam protector or 2.90 kg with Sky BlowBag).

• Improved in-flight stability due to a narrower seat board and refined ABS geometry.

• Removable radio pocket.

• Durable materials.

* Weight including seatboard, rescue handle and integrated V-bridle for the rescue parachute.

Gii 4 has been the best-sold generation in the 12-year-long history of Gii harnesses. We were conscious that improving such a successful model would take a revolution rather than an evolution; the result is the new Gii 5 ALPHA with better stability and comfort, and a more straightforward setup. Gii 5 ALPHA is now the perfect equipment for recreational pilots and occasional hike&fly-pilots looking for maximum comfort and safety in flight.
