WINCH-TOWING
The BREEZE is suitable for winch-towing launches. There are no special attachments for
this type of launch. The tow release is attached either to the main carabiners or even
better to a tow adapter that extends beyond the ends of the risers before these are
hooked to the carabiners. Follow the instructions of the tow release and the tow adapt-
er or ask a flight instructor who is experienced with paraglider towing.
TANDEM FLIGHT
The BREEZE is not a suitable harness for tandem flight.
SAFETY TRAINING AND FLYING OVER WATER
We do not recommend using the BREEZE for flying over water or for safety training
It is possible that the air-protector of the harness could force the pilot under water af-
ter a water landing.
CAUTION
BE CAREFUL WHEN FLYING OVER WATER!

10 MAINTENANCE, CARE
The selected materials used in the BREEZE make it necessary to treat them carefuly
and in a professional manner. Make an effort to take care of your harness and keep it
clean to preserve its airworthiness over the longest possible time.
> Avoid dragging your harness over stony ground and always try to land in an upright
positon.
> Don’t leave your harness lying in the sun unnecessarily long. UV radiation is very
damaging to the material.
> Store it in the Inflation bag when you don´t use it.
> Store your paragliding equipment loosely packed in a cool and dry place. If it gets wet,
always dry out your equipment before packing it.
> To clean it, just use a brush or a damp cloth. Use mild soap to clean it only when
absolutely necessary. If you do, first remove other parts like the reserve parachute.
The coating of the material can be damaged by brushing or rubbing.
> Let the harness dry in a well-ventilated, shady place if it was wet. If the reserve
parachute gets wet, (e.g. during a water landing), then it is necessary to open it up,
let it dry, and pack it again.
> After a hard landing or an impact higher than 0,5m, check the protector for damage.
In such a case, the protector must be repaired before the next use of the harness.
> Zippers should be treated with silicon spray once a year.
MATERIALS
The skywalk BREEZE is manufactured from the highest quality materials. skywalk has se-
lected the best possible combination of materials with regard to resilience, performance
and longevity. We are aware that the durability of the harness is a deciding factor in the
pilots satisfaction.
