2023 Ride Engine Lyte Direct Connection V2 Harness

Here's what Ride Engine has to say:

"A Ride Engine harness can't just be lightweight—it also has to excel in terms of comfort and no-compromise performance. We accomplished this by utilizing the same data-driven design of our Elite Carbon and combing that with the latest in material technology. The ingenious Curv® composite material we use is not merely lightweight—its high tensile strength allows the shell to retain Ride Engine's scientifically designed Lumbar Lock shape, which has become renowned for eliminating harness rise and twisting on the body. Equipped with Direct Connection or Webbing Connection, the Lyte V2 integrates directly with our Unity Spreader Bar, which completely eliminates spreader bar slip and twist. Additionally making the Lyte the ultimate lightweight travel harness is our Cell-Lock Foam: thermoformed closed-cell foam that's Lycra laminated to virtually eliminate all water absorption and keep the harness light no matter how long your session."

Why You Need It

Weight, in most equipment, is a barometer of performance. The Lyte takes this benchmark to the next level with material science and a fit backed by data, giving you one of the lightest high-performance wind-sport harnesses ever made.

Technology That You Get

Materials that have been rigorously tested both in the lab and in the field, and have been proven to be dependable and durable no matter what.

Final Word

Everyone is looking to save weight—lighter board materials, lighter kite and sail materials. There is no reason that this same material science should not be applied to your harness. if you are looking to shave weight, the Lyte V2 is your solution.

• Unity Spreader Bar Compatible (spreader bar sold separately)
  Ride Engine's patent-pending “set it and forget it” spreader bar system creates a solid, stable connection. The Unity Spreader Bar applies an ingenious design utilizing custom-molded Unity Ladder-Lock Straps, thereby eliminating the use of traditional webbing and providing an unrivaled, no slip, locked-in fit.

• Cell-Lock Foam Body Interface
  Lycra laminate on the close-cell foam interior minimizes water penetration, keeping the harness light when in use and providing you all-day comfort in trunks or a wetsuit.
  

• Lumbar Lock Data-Derived Technology
  A scientifically supported data shape from more than 1000 custom lower lumbar molds of men and women, the Lumbar Lock conforms and cradles your lumbar, back and sides to lock the harness securely in place. These enhanced ergonomics ensure that you get the maximum support out of your harness—no more sliding side-to-side or riding up.

• Low Profile Outline Shaping
  Low-profile framework contributes to a perfect fit and maximum mobility while keeping the harness locked in place and eliminating pressure points.

• Handle Pass and Forward-Mounted Leash Attachments
  For freestyle riders, the harness comes with handle-pass-leash mount around the back (which is easy to remove for windsurfing). It also has two, right and left, forward-mounted D-ring leash attachment points for use when a short leash is utilized.

• Internal Waist Belt Strap
  An internal, single-closure waist-belt strap provides a secure fit and easy entry and adjustment.
