DENALI does not include any standard protection. 1.3 - Handle with care The choice of light materials and the design make the DENALI subject to damage caused by improper use. The life of this product depends to a large extent on how carefully you use it. A light product is much more sensitive to mechanical stress of all kinds.
2.1- Reserve parachute The ventral reserve parachute container FRONT LIGHT RESCUE CONTAIN- ER ANTHRACITE is not included in the purchase of the DENALI harness, but is an option and must be positioned in front of the chest strap adjustment. It must be fixed with the bridle on both main carabiners and secured with the strap on the connection between the right and left support.

DENALI - user manual 2.2- Harness adjustments DENALI provides the option to adjust the shoulder strap cord and, if need- ed, it is possible to lengthen or shorten the back strap. The harness has been designed and manufactured according to an ergo- nomic standard which, in its extreme simplicity, allows it to be comfortable for most pilots.

DENALI - user manual 2.2.2 - Adjustment of the back If the flying position feels uncomfortable due to being too "seated," it is possible to lengthen the back cord by releasing the loop from the carabin- er. This adjustment allows for a more upright position, providing increased comfort during flight.

ATTENTION: It could happen that when you put on the DENALI, the carabiners may inad- vertently rotate within the shoulder strap cords and the main cord, causing them to twist or tangle. In the same way, the leg straps, only if they are kept open, could make turns on themselves.

DENALI can be used for tandem flight for the passenger. 3.4- Flying over water DENALI has no particular contraindications in flying over water, but we re- mind you that landing in water is still dangerous. Woody Valley recommends the use of an appropriate life jacket when flying over water.
