DETAILED DESCRIPTION
Balanced Lumbar Support
The Synth V5 RS's intermediate flexibility Curv® shell distributes the load evenly for constant lumbar support. You feel less localized pressure, which reduces fatigue and allows you to stay on the water longer without discomfort.
Simple and Effective Adjustment
The Aerobar RS, with its intuitive ratchet system, makes one-handed adjustments a breeze. You can quickly fine-tune your position between runs. This makes setup and on-the-spot adjustments far more comfortable.
Versatility with an Interchangeable System
The Synth V5 RS offers an interchangeable connection system that allows you to adapt the harness according to your riding style. Whether you practice kitesurf or windsurf board, you can configure the connection to maintain a secure and adapted connection.
Comfort and Durability
The reinforced nylon body and stainless steel components offer a perfect blend of lightness and robustness. An EVA pad significantly enhances comfort at all pressure points, which is especially beneficial during long or technical sessions.
Who is it for and why?
We recommend this harness to intermediate to advanced riders who want a good compromise between support and freedom of movement. It is particularly suitable for kitesurf and windsurf board practitioners looking for a durable and easily adjustable product.
Usage Tips
Adjust the Aerobar RS before you hit the water to minimize frequent tweaks. To preserve the materials, regularly check the stainless steel components and clean the harness with fresh water after every saltwater use.
