Introducing the cutting-edge advancement in harness technology and design, meticulously reinvented from the foundation. The Elite Carbon Type 1 features the groundbreaking Hyperlock spreader bar system, revolutionizing the experience for kiteboarders. With the 12K carbon STEP-2, the Elite hard shell has evolved to provide even more comfort and fit, based on biometric design on all axes. The upgraded Fusion closed-cell foam padding is ergonomically shaped, reducing excess material and ensuring maximum comfort and support. Remarkably lightweight at only 1KG in a medium size, the new Elite sets a new standard for innovation and support that complements all riding styles.
12K Carbon Step-2 Hard-Shell
Employing biometric analysis and advanced movement design, the 12K carbon Step-2 hard-shell in the Ride Engine harness line offers the stiffest flex available. This meticulous approach results in the most comfortable, supportive, and high-performance harness currently on the market.

Hyperlock Ratchet Adjustment System
Introducing the groundbreaking Hyperlock ratchet spreader bar and closure system. This system incorporates the patented Hydrocinch technology, enabling instant, on-the-fly adjustments for unparalleled security and comfort, setting a new standard for slip-free harnesses.
By leveraging the Ride Engine Unity System as a foundational element, we gained a substantial advantage in both material science and integration. The evolution of ratchet technology, in its next iteration, underwent an extensive period of testing and refinement to guarantee reliability, seamless integration, and efficient functionality under diverse environmental and usage conditions.
This comprehensive testing process included:
1.5 years of rigorous field testing with Alpha and Beta testers across all conditions.
Multiple iterations and prototype constructions to fine-tune the system.
Intensive laboratory testing to ensure performance standards were met and exceeded.
