Oh great! Now we have another thing to compare sizes with friends...🤣 The cockpit looks better and sturdyer than the arrow P with is thin. For a weight just a little bit higher.
About the protector, in summary: The Nova ARTUS comes with the Nova ALUMINA+ Protector fitted as standard. This "hybrid" two-part back protector system extends along the thighs and back right up to the thoracic spine and "provides extensive protection". It consists of PE foam and a very light tubular structure made of aluminium, "also used in aviation". This combination of materials gives a very low weight (235g) and pack size. For an even smaller packing volume, you can optionally replace the main protector with the inflatable Nova ARTUS AIR protector (385g).
Ok noted! ✍ Any competition harnesses in particular? 🤓 Looking at current competition harness models, we've so far published video and written reviews of the Gin Genie Race 5, Kortel Kanibal Race II, Woody Valley X-Rated7, and, if you include ultra-light competition harnesses, the Woody Valley Race. I'm currently testing the Niviuk Drifter 2 and Supair ALP, and plan to publish reviews of these, if possible (still more to do). I'd of course like to publish a review of the Ozone Submarine, and all other gear we offer, if possible! 😃

For our reviews, we mainly aim to share our thoughts, as best we can, about aspects you can't read about in the product info, technical data, user manual and certification documents, based on our testing.
As always, the main reason we test gear is so we can better advise our customers on the right and best gear for them, as part of our match service. These reviews are a by-product of this, sharing our views with the freeflight community, for free. We test far more gear than we are able to produce reviews of. Also, by necessity, the reviews we do publish are only a snippet of what we actually have to say. We offer more detail, plus personalised reviews, through our match service.

Love your review videos usually, but why didn't you take it out of the bag and do a walk-through? Show us close-ups. Show up how much storage there is. And just wild to do a harness review and not even mention - let alone show - the back protection!

Another graet harness to compete on the market.. but the pricing of these new pods is way out of line. An XC harness (not specifically for competition use) should be more accessible to regular people. It seems like the manufacturers don't aim to attract more people to the sport, but inatead sell few of the pods only to the richest bunch. It reminds me of the motorcycle market... so let's hope that Chinese companies will also get into Paraglding and make this market more competitive 😜
I saw this harness when Kerim brought one over and gave it a quick look over before he took off. I liked it ...more than the other similar ones out there. I can't recall the small things I questioned but they were along these lines. Protection ...l didn't like the aluminium structure as it seemed to be you damage it, you need to replace it at some cost. Flightdeck position? No reference made in video. Availability? That was six months ago. Still seems hard to get hold of?

Hi, Thxs!
What is the difference in feeling compared to AD The Sock/SockLight?
Do you mean the comfort or the handling?
@@flybubblecarlo, Mainly handling. Br Jonas

Thanks for the feedback. Anything else you'd like to have seen covered in this and other harness reviews? 🤔
