A potential defect have been advised by the supplier of the ‘Delta’ carabiner that we use on all of our harnesses.
From our records we have identified to have purchased the ‘Delta’ carabiner dating from 26th February, 2013 to date.
If you purchased a harness or carabiner from Moyes from between 1st January, 2013 to 14th October, 2014 you need to carefully check the carabiner for the batch number.
"For the safety of all customers AustriAlpin is issuing an immediate voluntary recall of certain batches of the Austrialpin DELTA carabiner delivered after October 2012. If you own a Austrialpin DELTA carabiner that was purchased after October 2012.

The RX Effect
Handling, performance and VG-settings
by Tom Weissenberger
Arriving just in time, right before the start of the 2014 European flying season, I took delivery of my new wing: the RX3.5 Technora® – from Moyes Delta Gliders. This glider is not just rigged with cutting edge, newly inlaid cloth, it is also my first RX!
Record days in Chile!

350 km declared out-and-return WORLD RECORD: 365 km total & personal best!
We made it! Not to express in words how it feels having finally reached the big goal! But even more important to see that the whole project 'Record Weeks Chile' worked out fine. From the idea to realization and finally coming to the result - the record - it was a lot of risk taking: will it be possible!? Beside the fact Tom was going to explore maiden XC flights nobody has ever done before flying out-and-return at the chilean cordillera coast going for the record. A new challenge in combination with a big project without knowing how this odyssey is going to end – a real adventure!
