Re: Kite Seat Harnesses

Looks like there are alot of good options nowdays. People seem to enjoy Prolimit, mystic, dakine and ion atleast. Vega seems to be popular but not very durable. I think I will try ion sonar.

Re: Kite Seat Harnesses

Looking for some fresh seat harness info. After some backpain looking to get into seat harnesses. Biggest difference between models seems to be the padding. Ion for example has some extra support in sonar and radar, but cheaper echo looks like just a piece of cloth. Is it alot more comfortable to ha...

it depends on what you mean with "loops". For landing downloops and transitions, the aluula would be marginally better. For real kiteloops, forget about it. To properly loop a 12 m, (aluula or not) you need skills and overpowered conditions where learning to loop (with a 12) is not adviceble. Even ...
