It's kinda like boxers or briefs, personal preference. I'm boxers and waist harness. 😂 I can see the benefits of seat though, they can't ride up.

Liberty Harness ( the Drake equivalent looks fine too). Height is adjustable although I wear it pretty low, and you can use it in a "7" position like a waist harness or sit down into it like a seat for very strong wind or when you want to unload the rail.

Waist, whether race, slalom or free foiling (I have the Liberty too btw)

Standard waist, top edge just below ribs. 32" lines. Does that make me a bad person?

The reason i asked was that i use a seatharness since ever.
and the windfoilers here also use mainly seatharness.
But thats just because we already owned these before we started windfoiling.
although i use a freeride/freestyle setup i do like to hang in the seatharness when going max speed.
i wonder if a waistharness gives the same feeling of control.

i’l try and borrow one to give it a go.
