DaveF Posted February 19, 2009 Share Posted February 19, 2009 I am trying to get some kit together so that I can practice ground handling once my training starts in March. I got a wing easy (lots on ebay), but finding a harness is not so easy. I can only find this http://www.paramotorsuk.co.uk/paypal8.asp Is this my only option for a ground handling harness and what do you guys think of it? I'd really appreciate your thoughts (a choice of 1 doesn't feel right). Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaveF Posted February 19, 2009 Author Share Posted February 19, 2009 Hi Pete, Brilliant! Don't know why I didn't look on the PMC shop. I've been looking for paragliding harnesses, didn't think about kitesurfing stuff, thanks. Do you know if the PMC shop is active while Simon is away? Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coggie49 Posted February 19, 2009 Share Posted February 19, 2009 Hi Dave. Try screwfix and take a look at scaffolding safety harness, they work just fine for ground handling. David Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

t_andrews Posted February 20, 2009 Share Posted February 20, 2009 Tip for consideration: If you've got your eye on a specific motor that has a harness suitable for GH, might want to pick it up ahead of training instead of getting a specific rig you won't be familiar with when the time comes.
