The adjustment of the chest strap controls the distance
between the carabiners and affects the handling and stability
of the glider. Widening the distance between the carabiners
increases feedback from the wing and allows for easier
weight shifting. Closing the strap gives you a more stable
feeling in turbulence but increases the risk of stable spiral
and also the risk of twisting! The chest strap may also be
adjusted in flight according to the conditions; for example, it
may be tightened in turbulent air and flown at a looser
setting in less turbulent or weak conditions.
To tighten, pull the black webbing strap to the left.
To loosen, pull the black webbing strap to the right.
