The most important innovations in this year’s harness range
can be felt more than they can be seen. Comfort and fit
have been the key priorities for our designers this season.
Neil Pryde harnesses offer full support in all the right places
as well as added adjustment, both inside and out. Our
innovative Double Waist Belt can be finely adjusted to
fit to the individual contours of your body, while the new
Automatic Spreader Bar with its improved QuickLock System can be set to your exact requirements.

Quick-Lock Automatic System
Easy to open by lifting the lid up(quick-release), close simply bypressing down. A replaceable,protective rubber cover covers theedges.
New Automatic Spreader Bar
The closure features on this year’s automatic spreader bars
have been completely re-designed. When you’ve finished
making adjustments to the spreader bar, the new Quick-Lock Automatic System snaps closed and locks-in the
settings just they way you’ve set them – so there’s no more
slipping or shifting during sailing. There’s also a simply quick
release latch that makes getting out a simple snap.
The entire locking mechanism has now been encased
in soft rubber to hide any rough edges and the ratchet
belts have been further beefed-up to improve durability.

This season we introduce the new Impact Vest - a vest
that’s specially designed for windsurfers to wear together
with a windsurfing harness. Taking things to a whole new
performance level is the Wave Pro Impact Harness -
a completely integrated vest and harness that combines
buoyancy, impact protection and all the support and
wearing comfort you’d expect from a high performance
windsurfing harness.
The key performance feature of these products is their
unique 3-Layer Construction. An outer layer of 3DImpact Mesh helps disperse the impact of a fall on
water. Beneath this a layer of shock absorbing PE Foamfurther soaks up the force of a heavy landing. All of this
is backed-up by a third layer of Soft-Cell Foam, that
helps keep the vest comfortably contoured to your body.
In the back of the vests where we’ve placed a vertical
plate of PE Foam to protect the spine and give the necessary
support in the lumbar area. Where possible we’ve moved
all the seams to the outside of the vests and away from
the rib cage to help eliminate pressure points.

Non-Slip / Anti-Abrasion
Harness Zone

Wave Pro Impact Harness A no-compromise
all-in-one harness and vest that successfully combines
protection, floatation, comfort and support.

protection, that’s been designed specifically for windsurfers.
