SOLD Harness 2015 Prolimit Kiteseat Pro Medium needs some stitching

HARNESS SOLD

Free harness, just cover the ~$25 fedex to ship it .

the tag says size 32-34 bu ti am a size 30-31 waist and this fits me great when its tightened down all the way

has ~ 50 sessions on it but a strap came loose awhile ago . the other 3 straps are intact so it still holds fine ... but without repair i wont use it in high wind or for big boosts.

i have 2 other harnesses right now and the 2016 harnesses are coming soon so i just wanna get rid of it

if you have the knack for sewing/creative fixes... its yours.

Consider it sold. Just let me know where to send my address and payment. I've wanted to try a seat harness and this would be a great way to, as I have a sewing machine... And worst case I could use the spreader bar and pad for a different harness whose is wearing out.

Possibly... The wind was pretty sketchy... Either 15-20mph and on without gusts (normally for a 5-10 minutes), or around 5mph without gusts... Was a bit odd to not be gusty and just come in bands like that, along with shifting directions, but a few of us hung in there and made it work. Hard for kite sizing, but such is life. Getting out beats staying in.

For sewing/fixing it, I'd recommend making sure to get the right needle. An upholstery needle may make it easier, if not be sure to get the right thickness. I'd go either a polyester thread, #69 nylon or #40 cotton-poly thread if you can't find the others. Not all craft shops carry heavier upholstery thread. Probably a decent thimble (be weary of cheap/thin ones and the needle punching through - I had a bad experience). Good luck!
