Description
THE NEW GINGO 4 – THE BEST OF BOTH WORLDS
The Gingo 4 is an all-round harness with a revolutionary new back protector, which means a 26% weight saving over its predecessor. With the new Aerobean protector, pilots can enjoy the best of both worlds: the lightness of an airbag harness with the robust protection of a moussebag.
In addition, improved geometry and a host of other improvements make this a compelling proposition for students, leisure pilots and indeed anyone who prefer the precision of a seat board and doesn’t require a cocoon.
Aerobean Protector
The Aerobean protector is our lightest non-airbag protector yet. The Aerobean protector in the Gingo 4 weighs just 200g, a huge weight saving of 78% over its predecessor. Despite the light weight and modest profile, all-round protection in a variety of real-world scenarios remains excellent. Click here to download detailed Aerobean Protector technical information.
Improved Geometry
The Gingo 4 features an updated geometry which enables sweet and precise turning. Information from the air is filtered in a highly intelligible manner. In conjunction with the wing, stability in turbulence is improved.
ABS System
The latest generation of GIN’s proven ABS system offers greater stability both in rough air and also after collapses. The ABS system is optimised for today’s glider designs and features an anti-forget buckle system.
Gin Melange
The main body of the harness is made from an exclusive 70D mélange — a light, durable nylon/polyester fabric that also maintains its cosmetic appeal even when dusty or scratched.
Bias Bound Seams
Internal seams are finished with bias binding to guarantee your harness a long lifetime.
Clean and Comfortable
3D shaping, simulation and testing have produced the cleanest, most wrinkle-free profile possible. Besides looking good, comfort is also improved.
Improved Rescue Pocket
Easy extraction and secure stowage of the rescue remains of paramount importance and the rescue pocket of the Gingo 4 has been improved compared to its predecessor. There is also a zipped rescue tunnel for easy closing and prevention of installation errors.
