http://www.u-turnusa.com Paramotor Water crash landings are all too often fatal. World renowned equipment designer Dell Schanze saves his own life flying the very equipment he invented. Numerous deaths have occurred when pilots have drowned after being unable to free themselves from their harness after a water landing. As the world's most experienced pilot in the industry, SUPERDELL invented his quick release harness after seeing a dire need from repeated deaths on older equipment. His design utilized special lightweight military quick release buckles with easy to use extended knobs designed to be easy to use even with heavy gloves on. There were 3 buckles that made for the fastest release system in the industry. Then after a friend and fellow pilot landed in the water and exclaimed they would have liked to have gotten out of the harness even faster than they did Dell Schanze went back to the drawing board. Within 2 weeks he had designed and prototyped the fastest release ever. With one deliberate movement the race car style buckle would release all 4 harness connection points but without any possibility of an accidental opening. This allowed the pilot to be completely free from the harness in less than a second. Then while setting some world records on camera the world's best test pilot got to test his own safety design first hand in a real world scenario. An accident sent him plunging face first into icy cold water, sure death for pilots in the past, but SUPERDELL emerged unharmed in mere seconds from the most revolutionary and safest unit on the market. The Flat Top is the first and only PSD in history to pass 100% of the safety requirements of the WPSDA. For more information contact: http://u-turnusa.com or call 800-707-2525

  • id like to see a video of the quick release harness above water, is that possible? currently i have 4 straps to unclick (2 legstraps, 1 bellystrap and a shoulderstrap) i'd like to have something that i can unclick it all with 1 button...

  • @duuuude87 Just search youtube for Flat Top paramotor quick release harness and you can see just that. I've got lots of videos of just about everything:).

  • wouldnt it be better to attach 3 bottles of 10l each that are filled with air (airtight) to your paramotor and on you? that way you (because of heavy clothing) and the paramotor won't sink and you can safely swim to the shore too (or float on the water if ur knocked out till someone picks u up... just a thought...

  • @duuuude87 The quick release works quite well and the paramotor does float. The new ones float even better. Yes any flotation on top of that would add even more boyancy.

  • hey

    you know the trike version off the paramotor glider

  • @LFTPilot Yes no problem at all. Fun stuff!
