DETAILED DESCRIPTION
A Hybrid Shell
The ION Radar combines rigid shell elements with softer materials. Support is concentrated where the kite's traction is applied, while comfort remains where your body moves. ION delivers even load distribution, enhanced mobility, and a secure fit.
Comfort and Fit
The neoprene belt provides flexibility and torsion, a real asset for wave riding and freestyle. HD foam ensures ample padding, and the construction remains lightweight. This harness is made from 55% polyester, 40% nylon, and 5% neoprene.
Spectre Bar 2 and C_30 Buckle
