Gin Genie X-Lite

GIN GENIE X-LITE: ULTRALIGHT XC

XC MADE SIMPLE

The Genie X-Lite is a full-featured XC harness. It was designed to retain the essential qualities of safety, aerodynamics, comfort and convenience, whilst being as light and compact as possible.

The Genie X-Lite is aimed at pilots who want to make XC flights, including some hike ‘n fly. Its features and performance will satisfy the most dedicated XC pilots, yet it remains light and compact enough to hike with.

STATE OF THE ART BACK PROTECTOR

The NEO Koroyd protector is a unique, patented design which crumples on impact. This results in shock absorption far in excess of conventional protectors. This is especially true on the first impact, harness certification protocols require two impacts.

AEROCONE + THINNER PROFILE = PERFORMANCE

The Neo Koroyd protector is so efficient that its thickness has been reduced to just 7cm. This low profile, coupled with a full aerocone, makes the Genie X-Lite our most aerodynamic XC harness yet!

COMFORT AND PRECISION

The Neo Koroyd protector is inherently rigid and thus fulfill the functions of a seat plate, aiding piloting precision and preventing the compression that often occurs with hammock-style harnesses.

IMPORVED GEOMETRY AND ABS

The Geometry and ABS (Anti Balance System) has been handling authority, giving the XC pilot comfort and stability whilst thermalling. The ABS system allows the pilot to adjust in-flight stability with just one hand. this. males it easy to switch between a sensitive thermal-sniffing set up and a more roll-stable set up for glides.

EASY TO CARRY AND TO USE

The Genie X-Lite has a low packing volume and can easily fit in our 80L rucksack. It also has a large back pocket, ideal for carrying bivouac gear. Buckling and unbuckling is a breeze thanks to Cobra buckles and a relatively small number of connection points.

LIGHTWEIGHT MATERIALS MADE TO LAST

Great care and attention has been taken regarding the choice of materials. The 70D Dyneema  shell fabric is more durable than common lightweight fabrics and 1cm Dyneema webbing (covered for extra protection) is used for the entire base structure.
