Whatever you do.
Do not buy a majestic x.
Worse harness ever made without a doubt.
I got mine each session only bothered with 4.
As it absolutely shreds skin off you.
I've gone back to riding my Naish boss it's comfortable and craps all over priced mystic crap.
Well a harness is something that is very fit specific and people come in quite a variety of shapes, so I would excuse a fitment issue sure. But "Worse harness ever made without a doubt" is a reach. But whatever, if it de-gloved your rib cage you can vent all ya like.
I will say my Mystic X has been an excellent harness for the (almost) 3 years I've owned it. It was a night/day difference for me over the Ride Engine Elite. Again, body shape the RE killed my back. It also fell apart in 10 days of use...the Mystic looks like the day I bought it.
My only gripe is the graphic treatment scratches off easily from the handle pass rear attachment and just knocking around in the truck. I've resolved that with some 3M Paint Protection film that I had laying around. Works perfectly and actually makes the harness look better.
Stoked for the Stealth harness as I've wanted a travel harness that doesn't quadruple in weight once wet. No worrying about being over my gear travel weight allowance.

Thanks for the interest everyone. I work for Mystic in the USA and will answer questions as best I can.
Love my Mystic harnesses - been using them for years.
Do not love the lack of support from Mystic though
As you work for Mystic, maybe you can answer something that they repeatedly ignore when asked through their website:
Dear Matt,
Thank you for your message via
www.mysticboarding.com. The information we have received is shown below.
Hi Mystic,
Is the foil seat harness compatible with the surf stealth bar?
Could you please let me know?
I asked this question before, however haven't received an answer.
Thanks,
Matt

Hi. I apologize I missed your post. Stealth bars only work with harnesses that have something like the Mystic battle belt (elastic/velcro waist bans) so it is not compatible with most seat harnesses (including the Foil Seat).

actually you can use the stealth bar with harnesses that don' have a somewhere to put the wings. I use it on a dakine vega seat harness. I did trim the wings a tad, some people don't.
i think it would be nice if someone made a minimal seat harness with elastic velcro band openings that you could tuck the mystic stealth bar wings into.

Any update on when the stealth is being released?
On a side note, I’ve tried emailing using the form on the mystic website since December last year and last month and they don’t respond to emails, same with the Facebook page, does the contact form not work?

I'll pass this to HQ. Sorry for any inconvenience. I work in the North American office and will do my best to answer any and all Mystic (and North) questions. Please let me know how I can be of assistance.

We're doing everything we can do beat that timeline. There was a set back in manufacturing (which has been a real thing this Spring) but they are in production now and will be moving as quick as we can.

It’s with regards to a fault on my 4.0 clicker bar, I will pm you as don’t want to divert the thread etc
