Reversible harness
A harness that turns inside out to become a rucksack for the whole kit.
What it means
It saves weight and space because the pilot does not carry a separate rucksack. Reversible describes the construction rather than the seating style, so a reversible harness can be open or have a pod.
Example in context
For hikes I take my reversible harness; after landing I flip it round and it's my rucksack.
