I've been riding with the LF Luxury and have been really happy it. I hear that the Mystics are great too... _________________ www.velocitykiting.com Last edited by JeremyP on Tue Apr 14, 09 4:36 pm; edited 1 time in total |

If you're always unhooked then you won't need a harness.
guess you wouldn't even call it 'unhooked'
maybe you would just call it 'riding' Last edited by Hein on Tue Apr 14, 09 5:57 pm; edited 1 time in total |

What do you hook your leash to then?
P.S. - First time I hit quote, it added "and your arms will get burly."... refreshed, and it was gone! You're too fast!  |

| Ive tried a couple different ones, the mystic warrior was the only one that was really comfortable for me. Problem is they are stupid expensive. I don't know of anyone in the gorge that carries them. I got my from Jetty Island. |

i second the North Styler - no need for the "Air" version. Super comfortable and
supportive... |
