Skywalk Range X-alps 3 Ultralight Harness
$1,800.00
Skywalk Range X-alps 3 Ultralight Harness Light. Compact. Innovative.
The RANGE X-ALPS embodies the class of ultra-lightweight pod harnesses – a class that unites features that are nearly impossible to combine. Together with input from our X-Alps athletes and feedback from convinced RANGE X-ALPS2 pilots, we have succeeded with the RANGE X-ALPS3 in perfecting its coveted predecessor.
The RANGE X-ALPS3 was designed primarily for weight-optimized XC pilots who prefer compact equipment. Accordingly, the geometry and the seat shell were designed for high flying comfort, which can be enhanced with numerous features. The harness can be flown in a reclining as well as in an upright position. The adjustment can be easily adapted to conditions during flight. This way you feel safe flying even in turbulent air, and in the case of a disturbance, you can quickly straighten up and assume a compact body position.
The aerodynamic silhouette keeps you powerful and efficient during extended flights and long glides. The longitudinal stability of the harness can be additionally increased by means of stabilizers. This feature is a useful tool, especially for high performance pilots, to stay on course with maximum efficiency.
Every space has been used wisely in the development of the RANGE X-ALPS3. The optimally arranged storage compartments provide ample space even on long trips. Although the weight starting at 1.95 kg and the pack size are extremely small, we have placed great emphasis on easy handling. Due to its intuitive handling, the RANGE X-ALPS3 is suitable for both Hike&Fly competition pilots and XC pilots.
Thanks to its large protector, the PERMAIR technology offers high passive safety and rounds off the overall package perfectly.
Whether you are a Hike&Fly athlete, XC pilot, vol-biv adventurer or travel enthusiast – with the ultra-light XC harness you will enjoy the highest comfort on long distances, easy ascents on your Hike&Fly tours, and reliable safety thanks to PERMAIR technology.
TECHNICAL
Under-seat stowage
The under-seat stowage compartment offers a capacity of 17 liters.
Back storage
The back storage compartment is sufficiently large with a capacity of 35 liters and is ideal for stowing your backpack. The asymmetrical zipper simplifies filling the storage compartment.
Aerodynamic rear fairing
The ram pressure fairing inflates due to the incoming air and recombines the flow behind the pilot. This significantly improves drag and increases glide performance.
Power Frame
The Power Frame distributes the forces homogeneously over the entire seat shell and provides optimal support without pressure points – high flying comfort is guaranteed!
Front rescue system with cockpit
The cockpit provides space for several flight instruments and, together with the rescue system, is optimally located in the pilot’s field of vision. The V-line is suspended from the shoulders as in conventional harnesses.
Sandwich seat shell
The seat shell is equipped with a closed porous foam, which provides additional thermal insulation and increases seating comfort.
RECCO® reflector
The RECCO® reflector offers rescue services an additional chance to locate a missing person (e.g. in densely wooded areas).
Device for hydration system
The hydration bladder can be attached in the back storage compartment. The drinking tube is led to the shoulder strap via an opening.
PERMAIR 2.0
The further development of our first PERMAIR protector generation has a practical inflate/deflate check valve that makes the filling of your protector significantly easier. PERMAIR 2.0 protectors can also be inflated in several ways. In addition to the previously common variant with the inflation bag and compression function, you now have the option to fill your protector via the PERMAIR PUMP or in a minimalist way via the mouthpiece.

Optional accessories
DESK
The DESK is a pocket with integrated cockpit and is attached to the shoulder straps as well as the front container. This provides additional comfort especially on long XC flights. Besides a storage compartment with cable outlet for a battery pack, it offers you an additional expandable storage for cereal bars and similar things. The compartment can be easily accessed at any time during the flight. The flight instruments do not have to be removed for transport, so they can be quickly separated from the harness and stored safely.
PERMAIR PUMP
The small electric pump is the most comfortable filling option of the PERMAIR protector. It also serves, with a battery capacity of 3600 mAh, as a powerbank and falls with only 150g proverbial hardly in the weight.
