The ICARO Tandem Spreader is designed as a compact, lightweight and exceptionally robust link between tandem wing and harnesses, making it a smart upgrade for any professional or recreational tandem setup.
Ultra-slim design with maximum robustness
According to the manufacturer, the ICARO Tandem Spreader is currently one of the slimmest and lightest solutions in its class, weighing around 400–480 g depending on configuration. The clean, compact profile helps reduce clutter in the riser area, simplifies pre-flight checks and contributes to a more streamlined tandem system without compromising on strength or durability.
Flexible concept: soft or hard spreader
A key feature of this model is its dual-use concept. The spreader can be configured as a soft or hard spreader: a removable carbon bridge allows the pilot to adapt the setup to flying style and operational needs. With the bridge inserted, you gain the precise geometry and stability of a classic hard spreader; without it, you benefit from the more compact, flexible feel of a soft spreader. This versatility makes the ICARO Tandem Spreader suitable for a broad range of tandem operations, from commercial flights to private adventures.
Optimised passenger hang-in options
Three attachment points for better trim
The spreader offers three different passenger hang-in points, allowing the pilot to choose the optimal position according to passenger weight. This fine-tuning capability helps keep the system in balance, improves trim characteristics and contributes to a more comfortable and controlled flight experience for both pilot and passenger.
Target group: serious tandem pilots
ICARO positions the Tandem Spreader as a “must have” for all commercial and private tandem pilots who value low weight, adjustability and a tidy cockpit area. Its combination of slim form factor, configurable stiffness and multiple hang-in points makes it particularly attractive for pilots who fly frequently with changing passengers and require a reliable, easy-to-handle spreader every day.
Price level and professional positioning
With a listed net retail price around 131 EUR, the ICARO Tandem Spreader clearly addresses pilots looking for professional-grade tandem accessories rather than the cheapest entry-level option. In return, it provides refined design choices and thoughtful details that support safe, comfortable tandem operations over the long term.
