Which size should my harness be?
First, measure your waist circumference. The equipment should be tight enough that you can’t pull it down. Ideally, when ordering kitesurfing harnesses the adjustment of the clasp should be in the middle of the range and not maximal at either end. The leg loops should be comfortable, but should not be very tight.

Which harness is best for beginners?

Before ordering harness kite, pay attention to the several types of harnesses. There are 2 big groups – belted and seated.

1. The belt ones are the widest segment of the kiteboarding market. They are simple, comfortable and functional at the same time. Most professional and amateur riders who practice freestyle (that is stunt riding with all kinds of jumps and elements in the air) or wave riding prefer this type of trapeze. Belt trapezes do not hinder the movement in the hip joint, they are put on the belt, just above the waist. It is very easy and comfortable to bend and twist the body in them. The hook on the waist trapeze is located at or just above the navel. Buy kite harnesses of this type for advanced riders performing elements that require off the hook. This way less effort is spent to put the bar on the hook after landing. In the end, the belt trapezes are very quick and easy to put on and take off.

2. The sitting ones, like pants, are put on your hips. If performing jumps or riding waves is not a priority for your riding development, a seated trapeze is worth considering. Professional riders and those who just like to ride fast, both on the water and on the snow, prefer a seated trapeze. The low location of the hook makes it possible with less energy expenditure, without straining the lower part of the back, to catch the edge of the board (or skis) against the surface more effectively. This is a definite advantage in racing, especially when it comes to marathons. For beginners, the first steps in a sitting trapeze will be much easier than in a lap trapeze, although there is the controversial opinion that the sitting trapeze spoils the pose for future riders.

The main difference between a seated trapeze and a belted trapeze is the presence of leg straps. If you buy harness kiteboarding for beginners, choose the sitting one. It will not slip upward and you will feel more comfortable holding the kite in the zenith position.

Should I wear a seat harness or a waist harness?

You should not neglect this question when buying a kite harness. If you want to move freely without restriction then you need a waist harness. However, this type is much worse for people who start their kite career. In the beginning, the rubber seat belt is what you need. Firstly, it has a very affordable price. Secondly, it is more convenient. Therefore, you should order kiteboard harness based on your preferences and circumstances.
What are the advantages and disadvantages of a waist harness?
Pros
The main advantage of the waist harness is that it is very easy to get in and out of because the hook is higher.
Another advantage is that when swimming against the wind, it allows you to rotate your body so that it faces the direction of the swim since the harness usually slips a bit. At least for me, this provides a relaxed body position when swimming upwind.
Putting on the lap belt is also faster and less hassle than a seated belt.
Cons
Because the straps are high up, they are not compatible with life jackets.
Not only do you need to keep your legs extended forward when gliding, but remember to keep your hips extended forward so you don’t fall into a monkey pose.
If you gain or lose weight, the lap belt will quickly become too big or too small. Because it only stays in place by fitting properly to your body, if it’s too big, it can quickly slide down onto your chest.
If you have a large belly, a waist belt is probably not for you. It’s like wearing the belt loosely around your belly button, it will likely slide up or down and be uncomfortable.
What are the advantages and disadvantages of a seat harness?
Pros
The main advantage of the harness is that it doesn’t go up in the armpit area. The leg straps secure the harness at the waist, so they are much more comfortable for beginners and those with lumbar problems.
They are often larger and bulkier than waste harnesses and therefore provide more support. The spreader bar is slightly lower than in waist harnesses and is in the centre of gravity. This makes it easier for you to crack the kite while resisting all of your body weight while riding.
Only this harness is suitable for larger bellies because the hook is below the belly and the straps between the legs hold it in place.
The straps between the legs hold the harness in place, so even if it’s a little big, it’s less likely to slip than a waist harness.
Cons
They are a little more difficult to get in and out of the harness. Because the hook is at hip level, we have to push our hips forward more to get the hook on and off, which can lead to loss of stability.
Are there harnesses especially for women?
Since many women’s physiques are different from men’s, manufacturers decided to develop special women’s windsurfing harnesses. Because of this, women’s windsurfing harnesses support you in all the right places. Women’s harnesses also have different colours than men’s harnesses.
