Best stock seat: Fusion
Best seat: Bump&Jump Genius, with Fusion spreader quick-release added

Best waist: ProLimit
Best waist if you want to use an impact vest: Impact Harness

Ride both

I ride both and find prolimit's stuff to be really good. I am only familiar with DaKine, Prolimit, Naish and Cabrinha harnesses and the latter are older gear. I have only seen one Maui Magic, but hear they are pretty nice. I find the prolimt all-around to be very good, durable, comfortable and performing. Their new seat harnesses are very good and I feel they are better than the fusion, which is bulky and uncomfortable, IMO.

Hi mel, what do you mean with:
Best waist: ProLimit
Best waist if you want to use an impact vest: Impact Harness
?

Do you mean the best option for a waist is a impact vest harness? But you have to wear a vest all the time, or do you mean the prolimit is the best option for a waist harness, BUT if you rather like an impact vest take that as a second choice?

What I mean is that if you're going to always wear a waist harness & an impact vest, then the best solution is an impact harness.
