Removable comfort plate
1. Open the zip of the rear storage pocket
2. Open the zip of the protection location
3. Slide the plate into its housing and close the 2 zips
The Strike 2 was designed to also be flown with dyneema connectors
(ref: MAILCONNECT). This lightens the material and makes the leg
straps fixed as for the X-Alps harness. You will then have to put on the
harness like a climbing harness.
The removable comfort plate can be removed for sportier use. The har-
ness then becomes lighter and more compact when stored.

Flying with the seat plate gives a stiffer seat and cleaner load transfers. The harness therefore gives more information and is more
precise. The seat plate also contributes to a more comfortable seat, without lateral compression.
Flying without the seat plate makes the seat flexible and slightly raises the attachment points. The harness is therefore more neutral
and more stable.
Note that in the event of leaving the wing’s flight domain, command precision must compensate for the lack of downforce and preci-
sion provided by the plate.
The STRIKE 2 harness can be used with or without a seat plate.
