New Kite Harnesses Launch From RRD

https://www.iksurfmag.com/wp-admin/post-new.php

RRD is proud to present a brand new line of harnesses. No matter what your priorities or riding style, RRD has a harness for you! Find more info about the new line below. Information provided by RRD.

Shield Harness

Kite Waist High-end
The all-new premium Shield harness introduces our low profile carbon outer shield, which is made with the stiffest and lightest material, providing the most support without sacrificing weight, for maximum back support and performance, during long or powerful sessions. The lightweight carbon material doesn’t absorb water so it stays light. The naturally curved back and pre-shape give you superior back support without losing freedom of movement and performance on the water. The Unibelt bar stabilizer is an exclusive feature to the Shield harness. It simplifies the belt- and closure construction and locks the bar into place to eliminate ride-up of the hook. The Unibelt can easily be converted to a wave harness by installing the aftermarket Shield-specific Rope Bar conversion kit.

Shift Pro Harness

Kite Waist High-end
The Shift Pro is the most comfortable harness in the range, suitable for people with a natural to flat lower back shape. The thicker, larger and less curved inner plate spreads the load widely over your whole back. This combined with the tender neoprene and EVA grip inside results in maximum comfort for everyday and powerful riding. The new neoprene padded spreaderbar with stabilizer wings locks the bar in place and eliminates the hook riding up and protects your ribs.

This makes it the choice for users with a more curved lower back or riders that prefer a more upright riding position, like free-riding and down the line wave riding. The new padded spreaderbar with stabilizer wings locks the bar in place and eliminates the hook riding up and protects your ribs.

Stark Harness

Kite Waist Adaptive
The Stark is a more flexible harness. The softer, natural pre-shaped inner plate and neoprene inside make the harness adapt to your body. The freedom of movement, flex and softness it creates, is most appreciated in less powered, shorter or fun freeride sessions.

Rope Spreaderbar

Our all-new Rope Spreaderbar will convert any harness in our collection besides the Shield, which requires a specific rope bar conversion kit, into a wave orientated harness.

The extremely durable Spectra rope bar with the sliding ring will replace your standard hook. This allows you a wider range of motion while wave riding, letting the chickenloop slide from side to side of the rope.

Toe-side or backside wave riding has never been this easy. The Rope Spreaderbar will also help you extend your turns without the kite limiting your body rotations.

Be ready for some next level wave-riding.
