Material backplate is mande from a composite one the standard version and with carbon fiber on X, thus X is lighter. I've tried both in a shop, almost same feeling. Ended up getting the X coz the owner gave me a nice discount, the difference wasnt to big, otherwise would be happy with the standard majestic. Anyway awesome harness!

I don't think the difference is better or worse. The X is stiffer, some like that, others not so much. Just different.

Sorry, bad english. I mean that I have ended up getting the majestic x because the disconut, as the price difference wasn’t big after the discount. One thing to mention: ive got a M size, but now i think that a S with a larger spread bar could have been a better choice. Mine slides up like any other harness... i wonder if would be different with the S size.

Hey when you are trying the majestic x also give the ride engine harnesses a go. I went with the prime model because I really liked the lumbar lock thingy, that they have but I am no freestyle rider yet. Just felt better having that little curve build into the harness. Some like it some don't. I did! If you spent that much it is probably worth a comparison. Sam Light uses ride engine for freestyle so they should work well!

The Majestic X will feel better in overpowered conditions as it's stiffer mate.

Hi, I‘m between M and S. I wear trousers 29/30 inch. Belly pretty similar. Looking at wearing the harness with and without impact vest. What size would you recommend? Bar size? Thank you
