2024 Tenax4 harness changes!

The newer improved Tenax 4 now has:

- Narrower backplate from the original Tenax 4.

- Lighter material is used here and there to reduce the weight.

- A leg loop change helps to get a little more upright for landing.

- The foot cone container is a little smaller to help reduce the size of the harness in the bag.

For pilots under about 170cm (size 3 and under) they are making a smaller back plate which is also shorter by 6cm. This will help a lot with take offs and landings.

Please contact your Icaro2000 dealer near you if you are interested!

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.

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:

STANDARD SYSTEM (single riser on rope slider) (see manual for further details 3.1.1)
FRICTION MR SYSTEM (friction device on hang strap) (see manual for further details 3.1.2)
INSIDE TRIM SYSTEM (aka kick-ass, butt lever) (see manual for further details 3.1.3)
PTS TRIM SYSTEM (push on boot cone to adjust angle) (see manual for further details 3.1.4)

* Shipping from Italy to us adds $350cdn to our cost - it is included in the price listed online. If we can get a second harness sent at same time, that cost is cut in half and we will refund you should that happen. Feel free to add a note upon ordering if you wish for your harness to wait at WV to be bundled with another order of ours.

Main frame

The harness main frame is rigid in the middle and softer along the sides. The main zip is equipped with Velcro and therefore it is easily changeable.

Back board

Our new back board is as long as the previous model but double wider, this is to ensure as much comfort as possible and avoid pressure on the pilot even during long flights.

The back board is made with carbon and Kevlar and the distinctive central rib makes it extremely resistant against high levels of stress.

Skin

The harness skin is the second most important improvement after the new back board.

The skin is made with a light and strong rip-stop fabric that is completely detachable and therefore easy to clean, repair and even replace (which means we will offer such skin as spare part, eventually).

Tail cone

The new tail cone is longer than the previous model to ensure even better aerodynamics, it will come together with combinable five-centimeter gauges so the suitable harness length can be set without having to adjust the shoulder straps.

Production time is usually 6 weeks, often a bit less - not the 2-3 weeks the note says below. See the panels on the order form that can be changed from black to the following colours. The order form is found here with measuring instructions and a color chooser. You can enter your measurements if you open it in Adobe Acrobat, save it and email it.
