SKY Lite Reserve

Paramotor Reserves

What kind of reserves do we use when flying with a Paramotor?

Our top of the line reserve that we like to use is the Sky Paragliders Sky Lite Reserve that is specially packed in a very small bag that connects to your main attachment carabiners on your harness. The reserves has quick release connections that connects to your harness and sits in you lap while flying and is suspended to the quick release connections. What makes the Sky Lite reserve so special is that it’s one of the lightest reserves on the market weighing only 2.8lbs size large and this reserve can also be used for free flight Paragliding since you can attach it in seconds two another harness no need for complicated reserve installations or multiple reserves. Always fly with a reserve and have the best reserve as your backup the Sky Lite reserve!
