Possible accelerator travel on many harnesses is frequently too short for 3-liners. I fly the Triton 2 with a Swing Connect Race, which is basically identical to the Woody Valley XAlps GTO. In normal configuration it’s impossible to fully accelerate, because the accelerator line on the Triton risers is too long. With a figure eight knot right above the hooks it can be easily shortened. Thus I gained about 3 cm travel, which now enables me to go pulley on pulley. This works of course similar with many other wings.

 

C-Handles:
Steering the Triton 2 with the Cs works quite well, especially while accelerated it allows to better float and to faster react on turbulences. I mounted handles by simply sewing a 3mm line to the C-risers and loops hung into the C-maillons. A plastic sleeve pulled over the line makes it easier to grasp and more handy to use.
