RPM RIDER PROFILE<br />
You’ll love the RPM if you want the ultimate freeride-freestyle crossover kite that you can progress with but<br />
will never outgrow.
1<br />
RPM DETAILS<br />
The RPM’s Open-C Canopy is a proven shape that has spawned an entire category of kites. For general<br />
freeriding, it provides responsive handling, smooth power delivery throughout the window, great boosting<br />
ability and powerful but predictable loops. For dedicated freestyle and wakestyle, the RPM’s shape delivers<br />
amazing load and pop, smooth pull, massive carry and flawless unhooked performance. No matter what<br />
category you fall into, the RPM will improve your entire kiteboarding experience.<br />
1<br />
FUEL BRIDLE CONFIGURATION<br />
The RPM features Slingshot’s unique shock absorbing IRS bridle system. This pulleyless, direct-connect bridle<br />
incorporates bungee lines that flex and retract to keep proper tension in the lines as you steer the kite. Slingshot<br />
introduced this bridle concept in 2015 and have nothing but positive feedback about the responsive steering and<br />
direct feel it creates.<br />
2<br />
For customized performance, the RPM’s wingtip bridle can be connected at three different points, which allows for<br />
tuning of bar pressure, kite feedback and steering speed.<br />

RALLY CHARACTERISTICS<br />
When you’re looking for a user-friendly all-around performance freeride kite that will deliver well in all<br />
conditions, look no farther than the Rally.<br />
The Rally’s Delta-C shape delivers you unmatched flying confidence. Its compact pulley-less bridle<br />
delivers precision turning with effortless bar pressure and it can be fine-tuned to match your<br />
personal style. You can fly the Rally confidently in any condition with Slingshot’s bomber Surf tough<br />
construction. The Rally performs exceptionally well in flatwater and waves, making it a great choice<br />
for riders who want a solid crossover kite for surfing as well as freeriding. When you add it all up, this<br />
is the most versatile kite on the market.<br />
RALLY RIDER PROFILE<br />
You’ll love the Rally if you want a kite that will deliver well in all disciplines of the sport. Casual or entry-level<br />
kiters will love the Rally’s big range, excellent depower and easy of relaunch, while more experienced kiters<br />
will appreciate its lofty airs, upwind ability and excellent downwind drift.
1<br />
RALLY DETAILS<br />
Slingshot has reworked and refined the Rally over the years to polish the kite into what it is today. In<br />
2016 we made some slight adjustments to the geometry and bridles to increase handling and steering<br />
speed. Those changes were very well received, so we’ve carried them over for <strong>2017</strong> and have added a<br />
couple other subtle modifications. For sizes 8, 9 and 10 we’ve made very subtle changes in geometry<br />
and strut diameter to clean up the canopy ever so slightly. Trailing edge tension is now controlled<br />
with the addition of Teijin T2 Polyester rip stop canopy material. This decreases trailing edge flutter<br />
and increases durability. We reinforced the one-pump inflation valve’s connection to the bladder to<br />
help prevent blowouts caused by improper hose attachment/detachment. Finally, we added two Kevlar<br />
patches to prevent bridle rub on the trailing edges.<br />

RALLY BRIDLE CONFIGURATION<br />
The Rally features a compact-direct connect pulley-less bridle with three connection points (per side) on the<br />
leading edge and a single connection on the wingtips. This configuration is engineered to give the Rally its<br />
renowned range and depower, turning speed, easy of relaunch and unrivaled upwind performance. For customized<br />
performance, the Rally’s wingtip bridle can be connected at three different points, which allows for tuning of bar<br />
pressure, kite feedback and steering speed.<br />
OPEN DELTA C<br />

WAVE SST CHARACTERISTICS<br />
When we introduced the WAVE SST last year, we received immediate and overwhelmingly positive<br />
feedback from advanced kite surfers around the world. The WAVE SST is amazing, people said, it<br />
tracks magically downwind, turns on a dime and maintains a responsive feel even when fully sheeted<br />
out. These are the most sought-after characteristics of a surf-specific kite, and the <strong>2017</strong> WAVE SST is<br />
packed with the same great features that made it an instant hit. After a year in the market, we also<br />
discovered foilers were gravitating to this kite for freeriding. Performance traits found in a good wave<br />
kite are also sought out by people who know freeride foiling. For <strong>2017</strong> we’re releasing more sizes to<br />
include a full range (4-10 meter and 12 meter) so kiters can set themselves up with the perfect quiver.<br />
WAVE SST RIDER PROFILE<br />
You will love the WAVE SST if you’re a dedicated kitesurfer, foiler or directional rider looking for a kite with<br />
unrivaled stability, serious downwind drift and unbelievable turning characteristics throughout the<br />
power zone.
1<br />
WAVE SST DETAILS<br />
The WAVE SST features a Compact-C canopy profile and a condensed version of Slingshot’s popular shockabsorbing<br />
IRS bridle system. The combination of canopy geometry and bridle configuration results in a kite<br />
that flies deep in the window, in the sweet spot for surf-specific performance. Two main features that make<br />
the WAVE SST such an amazing surf kite are: How well it drifts downwind and how quickly it can pivot even<br />
when you’re depowered, sheeted out or moving toward the kite. These characteristics also make the WAVE<br />
an ideal kite for foiling. The WAVE SST is extremely robust, taking Slingshot’s bomber surf-tough standards<br />
a step farther, with a special Surf Grid panel layout that adds strength and durability to the canopy, and a<br />
condensed bridle setup. Trailing edge tension is now controlled with the addition of Teijin T2 Polyester ripstop<br />
canopy material, which decreases trailing edge flutter and increases durability. We reinforced the one-pump<br />
inflation valve’s connection to the bladder to help prevent blowouts caused by improper hose attachment/<br />
detachment. Finally, we added two Kevlar patches to prevent bridle rub on the trailing edges.<br />
2<br />

2<br />
WAVE SST BRIDLE CONFIGURATION<br />
The WAVE SST features a condensed version of Slingshot’s unique shock-absorbing Intuitive Response System<br />
(IRS) bridle. This revolutionary bridle replaces pulleys with bungee line segments that expand and contract to keep<br />
proper tension as the kite travels through the window. This results in faster turning, more direct feedback and<br />
instant response. The condensed bridle won’t get tangled or wrapped around wingtips if tumbled in the surf.<br />
COMPACT-C<br />
Blends the proven C kite performance characteristics like power, stability, edging, control and direct feel with the<br />
additional advancements of an innovative compact wave shape to deliver faster turns, improved aerodynamics,<br />
increased rigidity with more stabilitys and a feather lite feel, capable of flying further forward in the wind window.<br />

TURBINE CHARACTERISTICS<br />
An exciting new addition to Slingshot’s <strong>2017</strong> lineup, the Turbine is now available in a full range<br />
of sizes. The Turbine has been Slingshot’s widely successful light-wind kite for years thanks to<br />
its super-efficient high-aspect Delta-C profile. When carried over to smaller sizes, that highaspect<br />
ratio translates to a super-efficient, high-end performance that has been described by<br />
Slingshot designer Tony Logosz as “a Rally on steroids.”<br />
TURBINE RIDER PROFILE<br />
You’ll love the Turbine if you frequent light-wind locations or if you want a high-aspect, high-efficiency kite<br />
that will redefine your definition of high-performance.
1<br />
TURBINE DETAILS<br />
For the larger sizes, the Turbine will continue as the ultimate light-wind kite to get you out and riding in<br />
winds as low as 5knotts. We’ve added a 19 meter to the lineup to give even more low-end range. As you<br />
go down in size and up in wind speed, the Turbine becomes a high-performance freeride kite. Due to its<br />
aspect ratio and forward position in the window, the Turbine’s upwind drive, boostability and lofty hang<br />
time are unrivaled by any other shape. Not designed for entry-level kiters, this is an amped-up platform<br />
tailored for riders who are ready for the next-level of performance.<br />
For foiling, the Turbine is as close to a race kite as you can get in an LEI format. Its shape is designed<br />
for superior speed and efficiency, while its position in the window allows for unbeatable upwind angles.<br />

COMPSTICK GUARDIAN CHARACTERISTICS<br />
Slingshot riders trust the Compstick Guardian setup for its simplistic design, bomber construction and easyaccess<br />
below-the-bar depower system. With the Guardian, the trim cleat is located just above the chicken<br />
loop and is integrated into the safety release mechanism. The result is a streamline system that removes<br />
eye-level components, placing them within easy reach below the bar and allowing for more throw above the<br />
bar. For <strong>2017</strong>, we’ve given the Compstick a fresh new visual presence and have carried over improvements to<br />
the floats, grips, redesigned bar ends and safety leash that were implemented in 2016.<br />
COMPSTICK GUARDIAN RIDER PROFILE<br />
You’ll love the Compstick Guardian if you want ultimate control and confidence, the Compstick’s intuitive and<br />
streamlined below-the-bar depower and safety is unrivaled by any other bar on the market.

NEW FOR <strong>2017</strong> — 20” BAR X 20 M LINES W/ 3-METER LINE EXTENSIONS:<br />
The <strong>2017</strong> Compstick comes in 17, 20 and 23-inch bar options. The 17-inch bar comes stock with 20 meter lines and<br />
is recommended only for small kites (usually 4-7meters). The 23-inch bar comes stock with 27 meter lines and is<br />
recommended for larger kites (usually 13-17meters). New for <strong>2017</strong>, our universal 20-inch bar, which can be used<br />
with any kite we produce, will now come with 20-meter lines installed and 3-meter extensions in the box. This<br />
gives riders the ability to choose between two different line lengths. For easier launching, faster turning and more<br />
responsive handling, the 20-meter lines are ideal, while the extensions will provide added power, low-end range<br />
and higher jumping.<br />
SLINGSHOT LEGENDARY <strong>KITE</strong> LINES<br />
High performance, high quality lines are an underrated piece of equipment in kiteboarding. When it comes to<br />
safety and durability, we don’t mess around. That is why we use the thickest flying lines in kiteboarding. The<br />
industry standard is 500lb test. We use special high-tenacity 800lb test flying lines, manufactured in the <strong>USA</strong>,<br />
exclusively for Slingshot. When your life is literally on the line, don’t settle for less than the best.<br />

B3 CHARACTERISTICS<br />
Slingshot’s B3 light traction kite is a fun, affordable and powerful piece of equipment ideal for a wide range<br />
of wind-related activities. In light wind the B3 is a great tool for practicing basic kite flying skills and kite<br />
control. In stronger wind it’s a powerful tool for more advanced kite control, arm and shoulder strength and<br />
hand-eye coordination. It’s also great for activities like skate-kiting. The B3 is considerably more powerful<br />
than Slingshot’s smaller B2 trainer kite. For beginners, all-around family use and use in varying winds, we<br />
recommend starting with a B2 first, then graduating to the larger B3.<br />

riders to choose or switch easily between foiling and surfing with the same board. For surfing, the<br />
Converter is a proven shape that riders love for its all-around versatility. For foiling, riders appreciate<br />
the familiar feel they get from a surfboard shape instead of a dedicated foil board.<br />
Whether you’re a traveler who doesn’t have room for two boards or you want to save a little money by<br />
buying one board instead of two, the Converter strikes the perfect balance between convenience and<br />
versatility, without compromising performance.<br />

FLIGHT SCHOOL CHARACTERISTICS<br />
Foiling Flight School is an exclusive three-mast system that is compatible with Slingshot’s Hoverglide foil.<br />
Designed to take the pain, frustration and intimidation out of the learning process, Foiling Flight School<br />
allows newcomers to learn the basics with a shorter, more manageable mast and graduate in length as their<br />
skills progress.<br />
This is by far the best learn-to-foil system in kiteboarding. The concept is simple: You wouldn’t learn your very<br />
first kite skills on a full-sized kite, and now you don’t have to learn to foil on a full-sized mast.

GHOST WHISPER NF2 CHARACTERISTICS<br />
The Ghost Whisper is the newest edition to Slingshot’s rapidly expanding foil lineup. This sleek carbon foil is fine-tuned for all-conditions riding<br />
and aggressive freeride performance. As a testament to the commitment Slingshot has to developing the most comprehensive foil lineup in<br />
kiteboarding, the Ghost Whisper features a modular design and sturdy aluminum fuselage that allows riders to change wingsets to achieve<br />
dramatically different performance characteristics. Buying into the Ghost Whisper foil is an investment in an evolving program, not just a single<br />
product. The Ghost Whisper comes stock with a performance freeride setup designed for aggressive but all-around handling. A performance<br />
speedride wingset is currently available as an upgrade and is a high-aspect, high-efficiency setup tuned for more advanced riding at higher<br />
speeds. Additional wingsets are currently in development and will be released as they are completed.<br />
GHOST WHISPER NF2 CONSTRUCTION<br />
The Ghost Whisper features high-modulus carbon mast and wings. The mast and mounting pedestal are one single piece, which eliminates a<br />
connection point and reduces potential vibration between separate components. The fuselage is made from sturdy aluminum, which allows for<br />
a strong, precision fit with the multiple wingsets in the Ghost Whisper’s modular system. The mast and fuselage attach with an industry gold<br />
standard keylock connection.<br />
GHOST WHISPER NF2 RIDER PROFILE<br />
You’ll love the Ghost Whisper if you want a high-performance freeride setup that you can grow into but will never outgrow and can modify as your<br />
skills and preferences evolve.
TWIN TIP ADVANCEMENTS<br />
& TECHNOLOGY FOR <strong>2017</strong><br />
In <strong>2017</strong> you will notice lighter boards, a more continuous flex<br />
pattern and performance that is tuned precisely for each board’s<br />
design concept. You asked for weight reduction, better flex control<br />
and increased feel. You got it. Our engineers accomplished this by<br />
inventing new carbon-reinforced inserts. In testing, our team riders<br />
quickly noticed how solid the inserts are, hence the name Bedrock<br />
Carbon Inserts.<br />
The new inserts are a Slingshot exclusive and are designed to offer<br />
you a solid connection to a board that still needs to flex. They use the<br />
industry-standard M6 hardware and are reinforced with light-weight,<br />
high-strength carbon fiber. With this development, our engineers<br />
were able to define a new level of durability you will appreciate. The<br />
insert pull strength is increased by 30%, while the overall board<br />
weight is cut by 10%. Bedrock Carbon Inserts are designed for the<br />
toughest boot riders in the business.<br />
HOT NEW RAIL COLORS THAT DEFINE YOUR STYLE<br />
Color is style, and we are now able to offer you bold bright rail colors<br />
in our trusted sidewall technology. Our resin engineers have been<br />
able to formulate our urethane in a broader range of vibrant colors.

WIDOW MAKER CHARACTERISTICS<br />
Building on a reputation as one of the lightest, highest-tech twin tips in kiteboarding, the Widowmaker<br />
has been stripped down and rebuilt to be lighter and stronger than ever. Weighing in at just 4 lbs 9 oz,<br />
the <strong>2017</strong> Widowmaker features a cutting-edge hybrid Paulownia/Korroyd core. Paulownia, a sustainable<br />
and fast-growing tree, is known for its strong, springy characteristic, while Korroyd is a thermally-welded<br />
miniature honeycomb that provides superior strength at a fraction of the weight of a full-density core.<br />
On the outside, the Widowmaker features a full carbon wrap with additional carbon Vectran weave in<br />
critical stress areas. Additional top and base layers provide even more strength and durability. Last but<br />
not least, the Widowmaker features a progressive three-stage rocker and a distinctive bottom profile<br />
with aggressive NACA channeling at the tip and tail designed propel water under the board.<br />

Although you might not be able to match Sam Light’s smooth, technical style, with the <strong>2017</strong> Refraction, at<br />
least you’ll have the same tool for success. Sam introduced the Refraction last year as his perfect solution<br />
for needing a competition-level freestyle board that he can use all over the world, in every condition he<br />
encounters (including cable parks). Due to its popularity, we have added a 139cm model to create a full lineup.<br />
The Refraction features aggressive rocker, stiff flex and a thick and super durable Dura-Glide base. You will<br />
generate great power with or without boots and the board features inverted NACA tech channels on the tip<br />
and tail which provides a flat surface for presses and slides on obstacles.<br />

MISFIT CHARACTERISTICS<br />
One of Slingshot’s longest-running boards, the Misfit is a time-tested design perfect for general freeride<br />
kiters who want a twin tip they can use anywhere, in any condition. The Misfit features mild rocker and a<br />
relatively stiff flex pattern, making it a board that cuts up wind and beats through chop exceptionally well.<br />
Laser-cut NACA channels give the Misfit precision contour at the tip and tail, which helps channel water to<br />
generate speed, grip, load and pop.<br />
MISFIT RIDER PROFILE<br />
You’ll love the Misfit if you’re an experienced kiter who wants a solid all-around board that will work well for<br />
all aspects of the sport, or if you’re an entry-level kiter looking for a board you can progress quickly with but<br />
will not outgrow.

MISFIT DETAILS<br />
Like all of Slingshot’s twin tips, the Misfit is hand-built in the <strong>USA</strong>, with high-quality materials sourced<br />
from the Pacific Northwest. Construction includes a vertically laminated wood core that provides the best<br />
flex, performance and durability of any core material on the market. New for <strong>2017</strong>, Slingshot is employing<br />
a carbon-reinforced Bedrock Insert mounting system, which reduces board weight while improving hold<br />
strength and overall flex characteristics. Vibrant urethane rails enhance style and durability.<br />

BEDROCK CARBON INSERTS<br />
In <strong>2017</strong> you will notice lighter boards, a more continuous flex pattern and performance that is tuned precisely for<br />
each board’s design concept. You asked for weight reduction, better flex control and increased feel. You got it. Our<br />
engineers accomplished this by inventing new carbon-reinforced inserts, which will replace the Fastrack system<br />
on all <strong>2017</strong> boards. In testing, our team riders quickly noticed how solid the inserts are, hence the name Bedrock<br />
Carbon Inserts.<br />
The new inserts are a Slingshot exclusive and are designed to offer you a solid connection to a board that still<br />
needs to flex. They use the industry-standard M6 hardware and are reinforced with light-weight, high-strength<br />
carbon fiber. With this development, our engineers were able to define a new level of performance and durability<br />
in twin tip construction. The insert pull strength is increased by 30%, while the overall board weight is cut by 10%.<br />

+ Bomber Slingshot wood core construction<br />
CRISIS CHARACTERISTICS<br />
With a lighter, more flexible layup and a mild rocker profile, the Crisis is a user-friendly board designed for riders<br />
progressing from entry-level to intermediate or advanced. The softer flex helps absorb chop and provides<br />
smoother landings for riders getting the hang of jumping. By no means a “beginner-specific” board, the Crisis is<br />
also fan-favorite for advanced riders because of its springy feel and exceptionally light feel underfoot. The Crisis<br />
features Slingshot’s signature vertically laminated wood core, a single concave outline and double flat rails. The<br />
result is great edging upwind, a smoother ride through chop and nice load, pop and landings.<br />
CRISIS RIDER PROFILE<br />
You’ll love the Crisis if you’re looking for a lightweight, user-friendly board you can take comfortably<br />
in all conditions.

+ Freestyle-friendly, surprisingly agile<br />
+ Gets you riding while others watch and wait<br />
+ Lively wood-core construction<br />
+ Long, slender shape performs like a standard twin-tip<br />
GLIDE CHARACTERISTICS<br />
The Glide is our dedicated light-wind board designed to get you out and riding, and having a blast doing it, while<br />
others sit on the beach waiting for the wind to come up. Staying true to the expression “Throw it don’t mow it,”<br />
the Glide’s long, slender outline, block rail profile and mild rocker combine for a feel closer to a standard twintip<br />
than the barn door that many wider light wind boards resemble. Offered in 149cm and 159cm lengths, the<br />
Glide’s extra surface area will, as the name suggests, get you up and gliding across the water with significantly<br />
less wind than a standard twin tip.<br />
GLIDE RIDER PROFILE<br />
You’ll love the Glide if you frequent light-wind locations where you need a large-format board to get you out<br />
and riding and want to maintain the fun of a twin tip rather than switching to a surfboard.

Why pay for something if you’re not going to use it? For <strong>2017</strong>, Slingshot has decided to sell surf straps separately<br />
instead of including them with the purchase of every surfboard. Boards have been reduced in price to account for<br />
this, so the cost will be comparable for riders who want both, and cheaper for riders who don’t care for straps.<br />

+ Aggressive heal/toe carving w/ parallel rail outline<br />
+ Slashy, high-speed control w/ pulled-in thumb tail<br />
+ Edge harder w/ parallel rail outline<br />
SCREAMER CHARACTERISTICS<br />
Cousin to the Tyrant but with a progressive snub-nose shape to reduce front-end size and weight, the<br />
Screamer is a playful and agile board that will appeal to riders of all disciplines. Its pulled-in thumb tail<br />
and three-fin setup provide solid all-around performance and control at speed for traditional wave riding,<br />
while its shorter length and unique T-Rex nose profile makes strapless airs, tricks and strapped-in boosting<br />
considerably easier than with longer, more traditional shapes. The Screamer is offered in 5’2”, 5’4” and 5’6”<br />
lengths and features a parallel rail outline and single-concave rocker. This makes for a compact and highly<br />
maneuverable ride that can handle any conditions you throw at it.<br />
SCREAMER RIDER PROFILE<br />
You’ll love the Screamer if you’re among the new-era of kiters that wants both solid wave performance<br />
and progressive freestyle capabilities out of the same surfboard. The board’s parallel rail outline, “pulled-in”<br />
thumb tail and single-concave rocker make it a fast, stable and slashy choice for all-around wave riding.

+ Our highest-buoyancy board<br />
+ Agile, freestyle-friendly T-Rex shape<br />
+ Super slashy diamond swallow tail<br />
+ Edge harder w/ parallel rail outline<br />
ANGRY SWALLOW CHARACTERISTICS<br />
The Angry Swallow is a board that shines in marginal wind and wave conditions, when more traditional<br />
shapes would leave you left behind by mushy waves, struggling to stay upwind or get out past the break.<br />
Based on Slingshot’s hybrid T-Rex profile, the Angry Swallow is the most buoyant board in our lineup, which<br />
creates a stable, yet snappy freestyle-friendly feel that only a board of its size and shape can provide. With<br />
the performance of a larger, full-volume board in a small package, this is an excellent choice for riders who<br />
frequent onshore wind, rough, choppy breaks or who want a solid all-around setup that can perform well<br />
in a wide variety of conditions. The Angry Swallow features a parallel rail outline, which adds surface area<br />
for better handling in mushy conditions. An aggressive winged diamond swallow tail gives the board tight,<br />
snappy turns and helps it keep up with marginal or mushy waves.<br />
ANGRY SWALLOW RIDER PROFILE<br />
You’ll love the Angry Swallow if you’re looking for a mix of stability and all-condition wave performance with<br />
a snappy, responsive and freestyle-friendly feel that only a board of its size and shape can provide.

+ Classic short board shape for dedicated surfers<br />
+ Aggressive heel-toe edging<br />
+ Ride fast, carve hard, pull into steep waves<br />
+ More snap, more pivot w/ rounded squash tail<br />
+ Best option for hard-charging surfers<br />
TYRANT CHARACTERISTICS<br />
The Tyrant is a classic short board profile designed for hard-charging, down-the-line performance, big wave<br />
conditions, high speeds and high-powered locked-in carving. Although a solid all-around short board shape,<br />
the Tyrant excels with aggressive riders who can take full advantage of its slender profile, snappy turns<br />
and high-speed capabilities. The Tyrant features a rocker designed for high-performance wave riding and a<br />
rounded squash tail that yields snap off the lip and locked-in bottom turns. Additional rear footstrap<br />
inserts have been added farther back, directly over the back fin to maximize these characteristics for<br />
strapped-in riders.<br />
TYRANT RIDER PROFILE<br />
You’ll love the Tyrant if you want a surfboard that excels in a variety of wind and wave conditions, with<br />
high-performance down-the-line riding for an aggressive, lip-slashing style.

BALLISTIC HANRESS HIGHLIGHTS<br />
+ No more stomach or rib pain with super-cushy EVA spreader bar pad<br />
+ Spreader bar won’t ride up thanks to secure four-point webbing<br />
attachment layout<br />
+ Easy entry/exit with clip-in attachment<br />
+ Extra back support with integrated fiberglass battens<br />
+ Freestyle friendly handle pass leash attachment and metal ring<br />
+ More comfort, less chafing with cushy Flex Edge along top and bottom<br />
BALLISTIC HANRESS CHARACTERISTICS<br />
We’ve completely overhauled the Ballistic Harness’s waist belt and spreader bar setup for 2016, making this<br />
the most secure, comfortable and refined harness we have ever produced.<br />
Most notably, for added comfort we’ve made considerable upgrades to the spreader bar pad, which now<br />
features a cushy high-density molded EVA foam. The bar and pad are integrated into one streamline piece<br />
and are secured by a new four-point webbing system, which holds the bar firmly in place and prevents it from<br />
riding up, causing discomfort and possible rib injury. We’ve reworked the closure to a simple clip-in system<br />
that slides into a slot in the spreader bar. Simply click in, tighten and ride, then pull on the red tab to click<br />
back out. The body of the harness features a super durable outer and cushy interior with a 3-D thermoform<br />
cushion layout designed for ergonomic fit and superior back support. Fiberglass battens are integrated into<br />
the body of the harness to provide added support and structure in needed load zones. A cushy foam edge<br />
lines the top and bottom to provide added comfort and prevent chafing.
