French brand Ascendant has introduced the Calixte, a new fully padded, submarine-style XC paragliding harness designed for comfort, durability, and functionality.
The Calixte is heavier than Ascendant’s previous hike-and-fly-oriented Zian. It features dual side zips for two reserve parachutes, increased storage capacity compared to the Zian, and simplified adjustment systems. Pilots can choose between inflatable or foam protection, as well as a carbon or polypropylene footplate. Final weight is estimated between 3 and 3.5 kg. Available sizes are M and L, with color options in bronze and black.
Pricing ranges from €2,690 to €2,890 depending on configuration, and first deliveries are scheduled for mid-March.
