Ion Riot Curv Men’s Kite Harness 2025

Rick — Wed, 09 Apr 2025 17:25:09 +0000

ION’s 3D Fit Technology provides the perfect fit for each individual’s body size and shape. Your individual fit derives from back length and waist circumference. Therefore the Riot Curv is available in regular and tall sizes. The exchangeable Ergo_Pad on the inside offers optimal lumbar support in two profiles (each harness comes with two options – thin and thick pad – choose what suits you best). The Riot Curv is medium rigid (flex index 14) and offers a good balance between direct feeling, flexibility, and support. An ultra-lightweight Curv construction distributes forces evenly throughout the harness. At the same time, it’s flexible enough to allow for optimum freedom of movement. Non-water-absorbent Hyper_Foam contributes to the overall ergonomic fit and light weight while the internal flex belt provides flexibility in the front. ION’s sleek Spectre Bar (including kite hook) completes the Riot Curv. Its Curv_Flaps create a seamless and optimal force distribution throughout the harness. Comes with integrated Knite_Knife Multitool 2.0. The Riot Curv is the choice of athletes like Matchu Lopes and Gianmaria Coccoluto.

Dakine Pyro Waist Harness 2023

Rick — Wed, 12 Jul 2023 20:05:12 +0000

Introducing the completely redesigned Pyro Harness, celebrating its 20th year anniversary! We’ve taken this Iconic piece of gear and elevated it to a whole new level of performance and comfort. The Pyro Harness now boasts a lightweight honeycomb flex perimeter, making it not only incredibly durable, but also incredibly comfortable.

This harness is designed to meet the needs of both kite and windsurf enthusiasts, with its versatile spreader bar compatibility. The adaptive fit composite back panel with Texon® counter/stiffener ensures that the harness will stay in place, no matter how hard you’re pushing yourself. It also molds to your back so the harness only gets more comfortable the more you wear it.

We’ve reinforced the shell of the Pyro Harness with honeycomb mesh, creating an ultra-durable piece of gear that will withstand whatever you throw at it. But we also understand that comfort is just as important as durability, so we’ve included memory foam pressure point relief zones to keep you comfortable during those long sessions.

The Pyro Harness also features a pre-curved P.E.B. inner support structure and a featherweight ES foam molded interior. These features work together to ensure that the harness conforms to your body, providing the perfect fit every time.

For added stability and support, the Pyro Harness includes independent primary and secondary power belts. And for those moments when you need to grab onto something, we’ve included an integrated handle and leash attachment. With the option of left or right side leash attachment rings, you can customize the Pyro Harness to meet your needs.

Spreader bar and Leash sold separately.

ION’s sleek and lightweight Spectre Bar (including kite hook) amps up the direct feeling even further. To prevent the spreader bar from riding up, it comes with the Downforce_Loop, which helps to keep the low hook position. Including Kite_Knife Multitool 2.0 and HPL_Slider.
