What I point students at for their first pod. Forgiving geometry, good protection, and the leg-in transition is easy to coach.

Advance Progress 3
A planted, protective pod for cross-country, the common first pod after a school harness. Comfortable enough that you forget you are sitting in it on a long flight.

Three seasons under my Atlas. Planted and protective, you forget you are sitting in it on a long flight. The step up from my old school harness was night and day for comfort.

First pod after the school harness. Get the leg-in sorted on the ground first, then it is all comfort and a bit of free speed.

Pod harness after a season in a school harness, worth it?
On an Atlas 2 now and flying longer days. Tempted by a lightweight pod for comfort and a bit of speed. Did the transition feel like a big step, and what should I look for?
