That’s an easy one to answer. Keep the harness low. How you do that, is the hard part.
There is no good solution for keeping the kites pull low and off the back. Seat harnesses do this, but squeeze the nuts.
Check out the Cabarete contest photos. Women (no nuts) in seats, men in waist harnesses (no boobs
).
Check out photos of the master himself (Robby Naish). You’ll never see his harness riding up. Nobody keeps his harness lower than Robby. There is good reason for this, he’s smart!

Harness design needs to improve. It’s unfortunate we don’t have more harness companies advancing designs. It’s bad that Dakine dominates the market. It hurts advancement. The 2003 Dakine catalog has the same old stuff. Somebody needs to step up and make better harness designs. If your waist harness rides up only 4 cm, it’s enough to strain the back.
