NSI Minimalist Wing Foil Harness V3
Introduced in 2021, NSI's Minimalist Wing Foil Harness is the original low profile harness designed specifically for Wing foiling! The Minimalist is engineered without the bulky hassle of heavy, overstructured harnesses.
The 2023 design has a refined profile, bringing the sides forward with softer edges and other new features and enhancements. Lightweight comfort, combined with the perfect amount of structure, shape and unique, functional features.
Built with the perfect combination of reinforced neoprene, several foam densities and Cordura. Beyond minimalist, the padded design stays comfortable and provides support even during long sessions.
- New combination of foams, neoprene and Cordura for increased comfort and softer fit, especially at the forward tips and the profile edges.
- Side tips moved forward 2 3/4" with softer edges and end tips.
- Strap Window pass-thru slots (side tips) 1" wider, allowing tucking in excess webbing.
- Softer webbing strap on the buckle closure side for smooth and easy adjusting
- Elastic comfort waist band (cumberbund) Removable for the uber minimalist!
- Back Strap Window 1" wider
- Strong & rigid hook webbing with full side to side hook sliding
- 8 mm stainless steel surf swivel - time tested and unbreakable - added to all leashes.
The Strap Window
Minimalist design incorporates an internal 1 1/2" heavy duty double webbing belt which feeds through the harness, with a 4 1/2" Strap Window for attaching a board or wing leash. This double webbing waist strap provides all the strength needed to handle getting yanked or dropped.
The bomber strap window allows for the board and/or wing hook up using the included sliding loop, reel leash or looped spectra.
The removable strap also offers flexibility for buckle placement, left or right side. Multiple attachments points for kite and board leash, left, right, front, or back leash positions are possible.
The strap webbing has more than enough length to trim, but caution- don't trim too short. Although the strap is replaceable as it is slides in/out through the strap window.
Wing Ding Hook
The Minimalist comes complete with NSI's original softer hook design, the Wing Ding (Free) Hook, the ultimate, non-damaging spreader bar alternative! The hook is streamlined, 5/8" thick, with a smoother radius where your harness line rides. Easy folding over or sliding to the side when paddling or getting yarded.
NOTE ON SIZING
If you find yourself between sizes we recommend sizing up to the L/XL. Reasons to size down would be to have a less padded fit, more room to slide the hook to the side, or if sharing with a smaller waist person.
After sizing to your needs, the excess strap can be trimmed, and the ends burned. The remaining strap portion can be tucked into the side webbing slots.
