Your harness is made with great care and state of the art. Before delivery to our dealers and flight schools, every single harness is piece checked by ICARO paragliders. Our team also carries out check flights with individual devices, but only on a random basis. For this reason, each new ICARO harness must be checked again by the dealer or the flight school before delivery and this date must be entered on the nameplate.

Special buckles prevent the setting from changing during the flight. Upon delivery, the XEMA 2 is already set to a standard ergonomics (except for the size of the pilot). Therefore, we recommend only adapting the harness in size to the pilot and leaving the other settings as they have been made in the factory.
Page 8 Our harness is supplied with the adjustment locked. To change the setting, you must first remove the strap from the lock, then you can adjust the inclination of the torso to make it more vertical by pulling the strap forward, or more reclined by pulling the light grey strap in the opposite direction.
Rubber for repositioning the speed bar The XEMA 2 is equipped with a rubber to adjust the speed bar. With a simple knot on the speed bar, the right position for each type of use can be made.

However, the passenger should not have installed a rescue device in his harness, as a possible false triggering of the rescue device by the passenger cannot be prevented by the pilot.
Standing up before landing is an active safety precaution, and it is much more effective than passive forms of protection. There are no specific problems connected to flying above water using a XEMA 2 harness, but in any case, landing in water is always dangerous. ICARO Paragliders recommends using a suitable lifejacket when flying above water.
