DETAILED DESCRIPTION
Lumbar support and flexibility
The Elite Type 2's Step-2 composite shell strikes an ideal balance between support and flexibility. You get targeted lumbar support without restricted movement, which is essential for freestyle and long hours on the water.
Fast and secure adjustment
The Hyperlock system replaces traditional webbing straps with an easy-to-use ratchet, saving you time on the beach. The fit stays secure and reliable, even in the most demanding conditions.
Comfort for Long Sessions
The closed-cell Fusion foam padding, combined with a soft neoprene lining, reduces pressure points and chafing. This means you can ride for hours on end in total comfort.
Versatility and Compatibility
This harness offers multiple attachment options for a freestyle leash, including an ambidextrous front point. It is also compatible with several types of spreader bars (fixed hook, sliding rope, and windsurf hook) to match your setup.
Finish and ergonomics
The neoprene outer and anti-slip EVA inserts ensure the harness stays locked in place, preventing it from riding up or twisting. Its ergonomic design follows your natural movements to reduce fatigue during long sessions.
Shop Advice
We recommend trying the harness on with your usual spreader bar to check the fit and positioning. If you're between sizes, it's often best to go with the smaller one for better control, without compromising on comfort.
