Ava Sport

Ava Sport have recently overhauled their website and  it looks and works a lot better now. They have also improved their back office systems so we are all go with Ava this year after some difficulties during 2012.

Here is a quick look at some new models for this year

The New RACER





This new, light and very comfortable intermediate harness is the successor to the very popular sprinter model.
 The RACER sports a newly designed seat board which incorporats into  a back former to maintain its sleek aerodynamic shape; An elevated position of the reserve handle and new reserve container for even  easier use of operation should you ever need.
 
The RACER is also available in two options with and without  leg cover and we are very impressed with its reported weight – about 3.9 kg for L size without legcover or 4,9 kg for same size with cover.
weight is without karabiners and rescue parachute


 Colour options
 
  

The TANTO RACE


Although this was available in 2012 we thought with the new proposals for CIVL competitions wanting to make it mandatory to have two reserves  that this Harness, the Tanto Race would interest performance-oriented pilots requiring a harness with the security of a twin reserve  system.

Like the older Katana model the neoprene skin of this harness covers the entire upperbody and back ensuring a cosy snug fit for perfect aerodynamics with optimised trailing edge.
The Tanto Race has 2 rescue containers (left & right), and is now certified. The size Large is about 6,5 kg which is fantastic considering all the extra material used to seal the gaps between pilot and harness.


What ever your harness needs  we are confident that amongst the AvaSport range is a harness which fits your needs perfectly.
