# Gin Genie X-Alps Hardness Ultra-Light Cocoon Harness

The Genie X-Alps harness is an ultra-light cocoon harness aimed at XC adventure 
and hike ‘n fly pilots, or regular XC pilots who simply wish to fly in comfort and
travel light.

The Genie X-Alps is based on the harness used by GIN athletes in the X-Alps race,
but with additional features for comfort, convenience and safety. The Genie X-Alps
is constructed from a high-strength Dyneema ripstop fabric and features a substantial
14cm moussebag and an integrated front rescue container / flight deck. It’s available
in 6 siz es, ensuring optimum fit and simple adjustment.

### Genie X-Alps “All-terrain” XC Adventure

The Genie X-Alps is well suited to adventures in wild places. Its stable geometry
is ideal for modern intermediate and high performance gliders flown in challenging
mountain conditions. Comfort on long flights is first class—the harness adapts to
the pilot’s body shape due to the hammock principle, and the substantial foam back
protector helps to distribute the load over a wide area of the back.

### Fit and simplicity

The fit of a harness is one of the most important aspects for comfort, safety and
performance. The range of 6 sizes gives you the best possible fit without the need
for complicated adjustments.

### State-of-the-art lightness

The Genie X-Alps is one of the lightest harnesses of its kind. It is also strong
and easy to pack and carry. As with any lightweight equipment, a technical understanding
of the product is necessary to obtain the longest possible period of use. Handle
the harness with care and avoid dragging it on rough ground.
