Why?
The paraglider harness is usually laid down before take-off and after
landing on the grassy ground, which contains moisture in all seasons. This creates
the risk of the rescuer's fabric becoming damp. Furthermore, the paragliding
harness is stowed in the hot trunk in summer, which means that the individual
panels can stick together under the influence of moisture and heat. This can lead
to an enormous time delay in opening the rescue.
