Anyone here using this harness and can give me some advise? Is currently using the warrior 2011, an think it is a solid comfortable harness. the 2017 have some upgrades I think is nice.
Do mostly boosting and only straped-in riding. But have also been thinking about a slider type of harness, but I have the impression that if I dont surf, I might be better of with a fixed hook, or what do you think?

Have you thought about the Ride Engine harness? Really it is that good. I'm a complete convert to them and I wont be going back to a soft harness.

Whats your riding style, do you have the slider rope or the hook. If you have the slider is it awkward to jump with?

Have put an order on a new mystic majestic 2016. It was a good deal.
I think I will be happy with it. Hoping for a little better range of movement and flexibility and better fit than my old warrior.

I use a hook since I like to unhook. I have not tried the rope one since we don't have a good spot for wave riding.

My last warrior lasted less than 2 years. Shithouse!

My last warrior was used for over a year and looked like new, it was just a tad to small. I've found the mystic harnesses from 2010 upward to have great durability.
