The weight of equipment often serves as a key performance indicator in dynamic water sports. This concept serves as the driving force behind the design of the Lyte harness, renowned as one of the lightest options available, whether dry or wet. By leveraging advancements in material science, the Lyte utilizes materials that offer unparalleled support, comfort, and performance without water absorption during use. Notable features include Curv® composite hard-shell technology, the Cell-Lock thermoformed body interface, and the innovative Hyperlock spreader bar system – all packaged in a sub-1KG configuration for a size medium. It’s the ideal choice for riders conscious of shaving grams. Features: Lightweight Curv® Hard-Shell Next-generation composite material that provides a rigid, durable strong hard-shell harness at an unrivaled weight. Hyperlock Ratchet Technology Featuring patented and licensed technology, these ratchets replace the traditional webbing connection. Rigorously tested for over 6 years, including 1.5 years of in-house testing at Ride Engine. Hyperlock Spreader Bar Ensuring seamless and highly adjustable integration with Hyperlock ratchets, this configuration offers a completely new level of harness-to-rider interaction. Aftermarket closed metal loop, sliding rope spreader and windsurf hook compatible. Cell-Lock Foam Body Interface The Lycra laminate on the thermoformed Cell-Lock closed-cell foam ensures all-day comfort while minimizing water absorption. Lumbar Lock Data-Derived Technology Supported by scientific data derived from over 1000 custom molds, these enhanced ergonomics guarantee maximum support and comfort. Multiple Leash Attachment Options Removable handle pass leash attachment and ambidextrous front leash mounting options. • Internal Elastic Waist Belt: Single closure waist belt provides a secure fit and easy adjustment. Hook Knife Pocket Convenient, easy access hook knife storage pocket. (Knife sold separately) HYPERLOCK RACHET 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.
