Worried the Dynabar can't cope with the load - and then it'll be something else I have to fix. I've already broken 3 Dakine spreader bars... not much of an achievement, I know

Ya just beat me eppo happy to go halves in the 1k tho , the flying objects combo harness is what you're after, no more wedges , riding up , done 20 days straight using this harness in windy stuff . Mate has the transformer and I reckon this design is better . Cons bit light construction stitching has come undone on mine but still a season or 2 left in it. Not worried because it works will happily buy another .

Dyna bars, any load, no probs.
had mine from 2009, all good

Mine broke at the weld? Good system though. Now I just use a waist in the surf, want to keep it simple. But yes they work really well.

They had that problem and fixed it with nuts now, IIRC.

I like how they do their leg straps - loops around the leg and the straps go up to the spread bar, so load trying to pull the SB is transferred to the legs. Not the crack of your ass.

I'd like a Dynabar, but not sure I want something else to maintain...

Transformer seat part just vecros onto the harness, doesn't it? How does that work?

Mmm... when the Fusion dies. Which may be soon

Don't believe you

... do you wear a t-shirt over skin or wetsuit?

Sure! Those things work for you... which means they probably won't work for me.

I've got some options to look at, but they're very long-term ie. when I lose the beer belly and get some lats.

Matebuddydude, that's amazing! What are the odds?!?!

Dude... what? How does that work?

Gets up to 40??C here in the summer and humid as a bastard... too hot wearing a t-shirt :o

...

Went out today for an hour before work, riding the Renegade harness... better session, it never ended up in my armpits but I did it up SO tight - that when the spreader bar did move, I nearly brought up lunch Still, every 5 minutes I was trying to wriggle it down just a bit further

Lot more of an abs workout than the seat though eh!

Maybe they were better made back then... my first Fusion lasted 2 years. The next had to be sent back because it wasn't put together properly (!) and the one that replaced it lasted a year. Hoping this one wont last just 6 months
