DETAILED DESCRIPTION
Comfort and Ergonomics
The closed-cell EVA foam padding and neoprene lining conform to your body's shape to limit chafing. You'll experience less irritation on the edges, and pressure is distributed rather than concentrated at one point. Designed for long sessions, the harness maintains stable contact without hindering your breathing movements.
Hyperlock Technology
The Hyperlock system revolutionizes how you adjust and lock your harness: adjustment is done in a few clicks and stays put throughout your ride. This patented closure ensures reliable hold during loaded turns and landings. In practice, you save time on the beach and gain peace of mind on the water.
12K Step-2 Carbon Construction
The rigid 12K Step-2 carbon shell combines stiffness and low weight for a direct connection between you and the kite. This composite distributes loads over a wide surface, reducing pressure points and increasing hold during pop and committed surfing. You'll feel a clear, direct response without adding unnecessary bulk.
On-water behaviour
You'll feel the harness as an extension of your torso: the support is direct, and power delivery is immediate. The carbon shell prevents sagging under load and makes energy transfers more direct, which is useful when you're looking to pop or absorb a landing. The ride feel remains consistent even after several hours on the water.
Who is it for and what is its use?
This product is for riders who practice freeride, freestyle, and big air and are looking for a lightweight harness with precise support. If you spend many hours on the water and every gram counts, this harness reduces fatigue without compromising support during committed maneuvers.
Buying advice and adjustments
Remember to try on the harness with the spreader bar you use to check the hook's positioning. Adjust the Hyperlock for a firm hold without restricting breathing. If you're between two sizes, we recommend prioritizing the tightest fit compatible with your comfort, as the rigid shell compensates for any play.
