Any company can make a lightweight harness. At Ride Engine we aren’t just any company—we are the originator of the hard-shell harness and we are proud to introduce the Lyte Curv harness that provides the very best in no-compromise, lightweight performance while keeping the weight under 1kg. The ingenious Curv® composite material we utilize 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 Curv integrates directly with our Unity Spreader Bar, which completely eliminates spreader bar slip and twist. Additionally making Lyte Curv 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.

Unity Direct Connection

Compatible with: Lyte Direct Harness, Carbon Elite Harness, and Saber Harness lines

Comprised of two revolutionary pieces, the Unity Spreader Bar and the Unity Ladder-Lock Straps. The Unity Connection System is available exclusively on our Elite Carbon and Saber harnesses. Gone is the ever-loosening harness webbing, replaced by unique Unity Ladder-Lock Straps that completely eliminate spreader bar rise. Gone are mid-session fluctuations in tightness and fit, replaced by the absolute locked-in feel of our ambidextrous TensionLock latch closure. Gone is the critical yet overlooked connection between your body, the harness, and kite or sail, replaced by a next-level spreader bar-system.

Features

LIGHTWEIGHT Curv® HARD SHELL

Next-generation composite material that provides a rigid, durable and strong hard-shell harness at an unrivaled weight (less than 1kg for a size Medium).

CELL-LOCK FOAM

Lycra laminate on the close-cell foam interior reduces water penetration to a minimum, keeping the harness light when in use and providing you all-day comfort in trunks or a wetsuit.

LUMBAR LOCK

A scientifically supported data shape from more than 1000 custom molds, 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 harness sliding side-to-side or riding up.

LOW-PROFILE DESIGN

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

HANDLE-PASS, FRONT-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 front-mounted 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.

HOOK-KNIFE POCKET

Easy access hook-knife pocket location.

    True to its Name

    Posted by Gino on 23rd Jul 2023

    It really is light. Foam doesn’t absorb water. Ridden it 5 sessions. While overall a great harness. It did feel a bit stiff around the edges and could use a touch more padding. My old ride engine Hex Core was More padded. But this can also lead to more slip if the foam is too thick. I really like the direct connect system. Works really well. Easy to adjust. (Just not while riding) I can switch between hook and slider rope spreader instantly.
