This is not Gin&#8217;s safest XC harness but it is their most aerodynamic harness to date, they claim. Take for instance the Neo Koroyd protector under the seat. Gin&#8217;s patented impact absorption device rigid enough to act as a seat plate is only 7 cm thick for the Genie X-Lite. That is 2 cm less crunching protection under the seat than the Lite 3. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In sum, the Genie X-Lite is Gin&#8217;s ideal harness for expert pilots who need to reduce the weight of their flying gear as much as possible to hike, but who require a fully operational and aerodynamic cocoon to fly long distances.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"650\" height=\"312\" src=\"https:\/\/ojovolador.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Genie-X-Lite-patented-protection.jpg\" alt=\"Gin&#039;s patented Neo Koroyd protector is 7 cm thick for the X-Lite. \" class=\"wp-image-18218\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ojovolador.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Genie-X-Lite-patented-protection.jpg 650w, https:\/\/ojovolador.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Genie-X-Lite-patented-protection-300x144.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 650px) 100vw, 650px\" \/><figcaption>Gin&#8217;s patented Neo Koroyd protector is 7 cm thick for the X-Lite. <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Check out the Korean brand&#8217;s official product presentation video: <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<div class=\"youtube-embed\" data-video_id=\"96RZdrwuzTA\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"GIN GLIDERS ::: Genie Lite 3 -- Compact XC harness\" width=\"696\" height=\"392\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/96RZdrwuzTA?feature=oembed&#038;enablejsapi=1\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The harness comes with the reserve container under the seat, ABS geometry with fast trimming system and anti-forget features, deck for 2-3 instruments, 5L storage, cobra buckles, 13mm Dyneema webbing, double-bladed hook knife to cut the webbing, 3 step speed bar and Harken pulleys, etc. The manufacturer&#8217;s recommended option for their X-Lite harness is Gin&#8217;s front-mounted 2nd rescue container.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Genie X-Lite is adequate for Hike and Fly sessions, leisure and XC, and completely inadequate for school, they point out.
