Harnesses & Impact Vests

The link between you and the control bar is the harness.

Comfort, control, and durability are key features to have in your harness to enjoy your kiteboarding session. Poor harness choices will cause lots of discomfort.

We have tried them all and recommend the following harnesses:

For beginners, get a seat harness so it won't climb up on you. Seat harnesses will provide better support on your lower back and eliminate back pains. The seat harness also offers a lower hook position, which gives beginners more weight leverage and balance since the pull is closer to your center of gravity.

Want the best seat harness available, go with the 2011 DaKine Fusion kiteboarding harness. It has incredible back support, an internal belt system, and stays in place.

For intermediate to advanced kiteboarders, select a waist harness for more flexibility at the waist. Preferred for riding toeside and performing rotations or flips in the air.

Want the best waist harness available go with the new 2011 Warrior III by Mystic! It is amazing and features the new clicker bar and is VERY comfortable!
