TENAX 4 is the result of 2 years of planning and testing carried out in collaboration with Alex Ploner and Christian Ciech, Italian team pilots and multiple world champions. The harness has been designed to meet the needs of the most demanding pilots in terms of performance, and is ideal for competitions.

Safety:The location and deployment of the rescue parachute has always been key for all our harnesses.This means our pilots must be able to deploy easily and quickly regardless the hand they use in that moment.The location of the rescue parachute container varies according to the harness size without compromising the overall aerodynamics of shoulders, arms and pockets. As a matter of fact, the rescue parachute stays partially inside the harness on the pilot’s back just like in our Tenax3. All the straps that form the bearing structure of the harness and wrap around the pilot are interconnected, including the harness bridge connections for emergency parachutes, positioned behind the shoulders to ensure a more vertical pilot position in the event of parachute opening. TENAX 4 is available with four possible in-flight incidence change systems:
