This is a link to a site that explains the dynabar spreader. It looks interesting. Curious if anyone has tried it or has any feedback on this. thanks.

I tried it, it was a bit too funky for me, with the way it slid around at "unexpected" times. I think it is a good idea, and would probably be most helpful for people using seat harnesses or short harnesses. With a waist harness, I think I get about as much side to side movement as I need.

There is a ton of discussion about it over at Kiteforum.

i have one, use it with Dakine Nitrous. Makes riding toeside much more comfortable. Takes a bit of getting used to, at first when it slid it felt like i'd come unhooked. Also i don't think its very good for practicing unhooked riding.

Pyros slide fairly well, but a much less expensive option is to wear a rashy under your harness. Slides around nicely! Very Happy
