GUIDE & GUEST – The perfect duo
Our GUIDE and GUEST tandem harnesses have been specially designed to meet the high demands of professional tandem pilots. Their functional design and well thought-out features make everyday work easier and more efficient. The durable construction is ideal for intensive use and guarantees a long lifetime. A special highlight: the bottom part of the harnesses can be easily replaced if necessary, should increased signs of wear and tear occur after years of intensive use.
The smart harness concept is rounded off by the proven and innovative PERMAIR system. This offers maximum protection during the take-off phase and at the same time enables a compact packing size – the perfect combination of safety, durability and comfort for every tandem flight.
GUIDE
GUEST
GUIDE – Tandem pilots harness
The GUIDE impresses with an ergonomic seat shell and specially designed leg loops that ensure an ideal sitting position behind the passenger – perfect for making the working day as comfortable as possible.
Sophisticated features such as the camera quiver offer a practical storage option for the camera and selfie stick and enable safe one-handed use. Two additional storage compartments provide sufficient space for equipment that needs to be ready to hand during the flight. The GUIDE combines comfort and functionality in a perfectly harmonised harness.
GUEST – Passenger harness
With its minimalist and sophisticated design, the GUEST concentrates on the essentials and ensures easy handling for pilots and passengers. The chest strap is hooked directly into the main carabiners, creating a secure and firm connection and virtually eliminating the possibility of incorrect operation.
The specially developed geometry of the harness makes it much easier for the passenger to sit down, which makes the whole process more comfortable. With a weight of just 1.85 kg, the GUEST is also particularly light.

GUIDE & GUEST Features
Leg loops
The selected material and specific alignment provide excellent glide properties through its fabric structure, allowing effortless transition into the harness after launch. At the same time, the material structure prevents sideways slipping, ensuring optimal contact with the harness during weight shift. The leg loops are reinforced with a PE board, further simplifying sitting down and standing up in the harness while providing maximum seating comfort. The GUIDE harness is specially designed for an ideal seating position behind the passenger.
Abrasion-resistant bottom material
The material used is Oxford fabric structure to increase abrasion resistance. In both the pilot and passenger harnesses, the material has been extended to the back area to counteract the increased abrasion in tandem harnesses.
Smart Link System
The marked seams help to close the harness properly and to attach the spreader bar correctly. red = left, blue = right.
Seat-Protector connection
In case of excessive wear, the lower part of the harness can be removed and replaced via a zipper.
PERMAIR 2.0
The further development of our first PERMAIR protector generation has a practical inflate/deflate check valve that makes the filling of your protector significantly easier. PERMAIR 2.0 protectors can also be inflated in several ways. In addition to the previously common variant with the inflation bag and compression function, you now have the option to fill your protector via the PERMAIR PUMP or in a minimalist way via the mouthpiece.

How can the PERMAIR protector be optimally filled?
The further development of our first PERMAIR protector generation has a practical inflate/deflate valve, which makes the filling of your protector significantly easier. PERMAIR 2.0 protectors can be inflated in different ways:
PERMAIR PUMP: The small electric pump can be easily stowed in the harness. It also serves as a powerbank with a battery capacity of 3600 mAh. The PUMP is included in the delivery of the GUIDE.
PERMAIR Mouthpiece: The mouthpiece includes a moisture filter that minimizes moisture penetration. The PERMAIR mouthpiece is included with the GUIDE.
Inflationbag: The size of the inflationbag was chosen so that it fills your protector with one stroke. You can also use it as a compression inner pack for your paraglider.
How much do I have to inflate the protector?
The ideal pressure is achieved with the PERMAIR PUMP. The mouthpiece should also be used if there is a difference in altitude of more than 1500 m between the take-off and landing sites.
Do I have to empty the protector after every flight?
No. Unless a minimum packing size is required, the protector does not need to be deflated. Both harnesses have sufficient space in the ALPINE 150 when inflated. However, you should always check that the protector is sufficiently inflated before take-off.
