Mystic Driver Seat Harness 2026 | All-Round Kitesurf Seat Harness
Richard
Mystic Driver Seat Harness 2026 Review

I was replacing my old 8 years old Mystic seat harness which was end of life.

I like the style so much I kept with the same product and bought the 2026 version.

I found it really comfortable to wear, it allows me to hold a lot of power in the Kite whilst edging hard.

I use the seat harness both for twin tipping in strong winds and Kite foiling in lighter conditions.
