Gin Gingo Airlite 5: Evolution Never Sleeps
The Gin Gingo Airlite 5 is a high-performance airbag harness that proves appearances can be deceiving. While it retains the classic comfort of a seat plate harness, it is packed with technology derived from Gin’s elite racing range. Now featuring a thinner, more aerodynamic profile, it is the perfect companion for pilots who want a lightweight setup without sacrificing the precise weight-shift control of a hard seat board.
Stable Geometry, Precise Control
The Gingo Airlite 5 features a refined geometry developed in conjunction with the Gingo 4. It offers a "sweet spot" of stability—dampening out harsh turbulence while remaining authoritative in the turn. This allows pilots to progress faster by feeling exactly where the lift is without being overwhelmed. The ergonomic design encourages a natural piloting position, making long flights more comfortable.
Advanced Airbag Protection
Safety is a priority, not an afterthought. The front-inflating airbag system utilizes titanium rods for pre-inflation, ensuring protection from the moment you leave the ground. Despite its reduced volume compared to the Airlite 4, it achieved a remarkable <20G result in drop tests. This high level of protection is housed in a cleaner, more compact shape that reduces drag and improves overall flight efficiency.
Built to Last, Designed for Adventure
Constructed from premium materials including durable outer shell fabrics, the Gingo Airlite 5 is built for longevity. It features high-quality automatic buckles and precise adjustment points. Weighing as little as 2.8kg (Size M), it puts this harness firmly in the lightweight category, allowing you to carry your gear further and more comfortably during hike-and-fly missions.
Redesigned Rescue System
In an emergency, deployment must be effortless. The under-seat rescue compartment has been completely redesigned with a wider exit to ensure the reserve pulls out easily in any direction, even under high G-loads. The rescue container volumes are generous, accommodating a wide range of modern rescue parachutes including the Yeti and Yeti Cross series.
