Zigseat Dudek Paragliding harness

Dudek ZigSeat: The harness/bag for speedriding

The Dudek ZigSeat harness was designed primarily for speedriding, but can also be used for speedflying. It has the particularity of being a reversible harness, i.e. when turned inside out, it becomes a rucksack with a 43 L volume for storing your wing. When flying or skiing, the rucksack forms a large pocket at the back of the harness. The careful geometry of the seat and backrest ensures comfortable use. Coupled with the choice of light, resistant materials, the Dudek ZigSeat weighs just 1300 g without carabiner. A very low weight, ideal for long treks in the high mountains.

The breathable 3D mesh incorporated into the backpack 's carrying system considerably enhances the wearer's comfort. The height of the back support can be precisely adjusted to the rider's height. Despite its simple, lightweight design, Dudek's ZigSeat reversible harness has all the necessary adjustments and is surprisingly comfortable. The ZigSeat is equipped with a dedicated Fastbag. It's there to quickly pack the wing without the need to separate the risers from the harness. During the ascent, you can attach it to the left or right shoulder strap of the harness using the associated carabiner. After deploying the wing, the Fastbag can be stowed in the mesh pocket under the right-hand side of the harness.

What's the difference between the ZigSeat harness and the ZakoSeat 2?

The ZigSeat differs from Dudek's other speedriding harness, the ZakoSeat 2, in that it has a ventilated backpack (mesh on the sides), longer arm guards and a backpack with ski loops. The harness also incorporates a Quickpack. It provides attachment points and a storage bag pocket under the right-hand side of the seat. With all these features, the ZigSeat weighs a little more. Apart from that, the seat depth, backrest height, rucksack volume and strap system remain the same in both the ZigSeat and ZakoSeat 2 harnesses.
