RASHES FROM HARNESS!

[constantino7491]

im getting to the point where my harness leaves my waist rough and with scabs after each and every session and it hurts enough to make me just ride without a harness (even though i still ride withit because i'd rather have the rashes and not lose my kite).

It's a waist harness and im thinking maybe it's because it fits too big on me, any ideas?

Thank you

keep your kite lower and wear a rashie underneath

buy a mystic warrior it comes with an antirash injection that you can inject anytime on/off the water!!

i already keep my kite low and wear a rashguard

as for the mystic warrior, do they have an extra small size?

i have a small tabu harness. it used to leave red marks and bruises on my waist and now that i have gained probably 5 pounds and gotten a spreader bar pad and a pivoting spreader bar it no longer leaves marks. the the spreader bar pad and dakine pivoting spreader bar make a huge differance. i hear the mystic harness is better though and the tabu still isnt tooo tooo comfy but it no longer leaves marks but still sometimes makes my abs hurt a little.

same thing for me

and i upgraded into the mystic firestarter top of the line
i had a dakine it did the same. maybe it is something we just have to live with

im forced to wear a wetsuit anytime i ride a full day or face the skin loss


i t could have something to do with being tall? i'm 6'3"

Well don't wear a seat one.... else get a rash somewhere lower and worry it was from that exotic kite trip!!

[constantino7491]

are there any other harnesses that anybody thinks are comfortable and worth the buy?

rash gaurds wont help with your harness because your getting the rash from it sliding up. This might actually help you get the rash. For some pain releif try some baby powder.
