Connect Race

The Connect Race from Swing brings an extremely comfortable XC and competition pod harness to the market, sitting alongside its other sibling the Connect reverse, with both being made in collaboration with Woody Valley. It was designed with the help of German multi winning cross country champion Daniel Tyrkas.

Made with quality materials and expert knowledge from Woody Valley, this really is a beautiful pod harness. If you're after an incredibly comfortable, well made, well thought out pod harness that is a joy to fly and gives a feeling of real security and control, the Connect race is for you.
