crut Posted June 23, 2006 Report Posted June 23, 2006 Harness. So could someone highlight the difference, to my n00b eyes, between: http://www.powerkiteshop.com/accessories/mauimagicwarriorwaistseatharness.htm And http://www.powerkiteshop.com/accessories/mauimagicforceshieldseatharness.htm I want one for boarding and buggying, but mainly boarding. The advice I have received so far is that I should get one that both doubles as a seat harness and a waste harness, and the maui magics seem to be the brand that everyone here prefers. I'm also curious as to the difference between 60cm or 70cm bars. What do people think?
MadgeSkywalker Posted June 23, 2006 Author Report Posted June 23, 2006 right... I'v got the first harness and sariah has the second one. both good except mine the warrior has alot my support for your lower back. nice harness...and so it should be for 100 notes! bars.... depends how big your kite is... ie... 70 cm for grande size 55-60 for kiddi kites i use a big old 80cm for the 10.5.... you'l have more 'turn' with a bigger bar as you are effectivly pulling more line the opposite direction hence good for grande kites (10.5 blade III, 9 blade II) that need a right good arms length to get turning. where as 4.5 bullet only needs a slight pull in one direction
crut Posted June 23, 2006 Report Posted June 23, 2006 @madge: cheers mate, much appreciated information. I plan on getting a harness and bar soon, and a Blade IV 4.9m in the next few months or so. @all: I got bored today, this is the result: http://images.darkrock.co.uk/Videos/kite-videos/lhf/LHF.mov Hope you enjoy
jedi_punk_pid Posted June 23, 2006 Report Posted June 23, 2006 i can see the site goin down again it aint runnin good @ all

Was the shakey bit where you dropped the vid cam LOL. Remember the bigger the bar the better the turn but when in a buggy you don't have as much room as when stood on a board.

Remember the bigger the bar the better the turn but when in a buggy you don't have as much room as when stood on a board. Yeah it was, I thought it was quite cool. It was the first time Dave turned the buggy and it threw me
