The Niviuk Arrow P 2 is the successor to the P and the light version of the Arrow, which I have been flying for some time now. In contrast to the Arrow, the P version is the lightweight version and is therefore intended for hike-and-fly and bivouac pilots.
As I announced at the beginning of November, I would like to test harnesses at regular intervals. The first harness in this series was the lightweight harness The Sock from AirDesign.
In the relevant specialist magazines, forums and blogs, harnesses tend to play a subordinate role. Reason enough for me to test harnesses regularly and publish a report on them here in this blog. But what are the criteria for a test that is as objective as possible?
XC Track offers a very wide range of functions. I would therefore like to offer tips and tricks for XC Track in this series. I compiled the tips and tricks as part of an internal club seminar, but I have also included some tips from fellow club members.
I have been flying the Arrow harness from the Spanish manufacturer Niviuk for a year now. Time for a review of the harness. I have flown around 55 hours in various conditions. The longest flight lasted just over 5 hours, but there were also a few short glides.
