The ADVANCE LIGHTNESS 4 COMFORTPACK (product ID 100954) represents the latest evolution of the Swiss brand’s iconic lightweight harness backpack concept, combining touring practicality, comfort and a sleek aerodynamic profile for hike&fly, cross‑country and travel‑focused pilots.
Ergonomic backpack concept for demanding pilots
Designed by ADVANCE in Switzerland, the COMFORTPACK for LIGHTNESS 4 is optimised to carry a complete lightweight XC or hike&fly set‑up. The refined back system, padded shoulder straps and stable hip belt distribute the load efficiently so that long ascents and transfers remain surprisingly relaxed. Intelligent internal volume, compression options and practical pockets keep glider, harness and accessories compact, reducing unnecessary bulk on the trail or in public transport.
Thought-out details for everyday use
Beyond its pure transport role, the COMFORTPACK concept is focused on everyday usability. Robust yet light materials balance durability with low weight, while high‑quality zips and buckles support intensive season‑long use. The backpack shape is tailored to the LIGHTNESS 4 harness geometry, ensuring that packing remains quick and reproducible and that the pack sits close to the body, improving balance when walking on technical terrain.
Optimised shape and volume
The volume of the 100954 COMFORTPACK is tuned for a typical modern lightweight cross‑country glider plus LIGHTNESS 4 harness, helmet and standard safety equipment. The streamlined outer contours minimise drag in the air when the pack is stowed in the harness rear compartment and also avoid snagging on rocks or vegetation when moving on foot in alpine environments.
Safety, organisation and aesthetics
Reflective and colour‑coordinated design elements harmonise with the LIGHTNESS 4 visual language and contribute to better visibility on roads or in low light. Dedicated pockets help separate fragile instruments or personal items from heavier gear, supporting tidy packing and reducing the chance of damage during transport. Thoughtful compression and attachment points allow poles, clothing or small accessories to be fixed quickly on the outside when needed.
For pilots who value comfort and efficiency
The LIGHTNESS 4 COMFORTPACK 100954 is aimed at pilots who regularly combine flying with walking, travel or vol‑bivouac and who appreciate both comfort and a clean, technical look.
