Actually I received it few weeks ago!

I tried it.

The hook sits lower than I am used to, to took me a bit to get used to it.
It works fine, but guess for now will stay with my old Pat Love, since I am more used to it. And maybe that’s why it is easier to get back into the straps with the old harness.

What’s nice is that I don’t have pressure on the breast, since the hook sits lower.

I had a feeling that the leg's movement was too strict.
Like the material between upper legs and spreader bar, which was compressing when you bent the legs.

The prolimit has better straps for the legs (below your butt) than the mystic…the mystic hurts after a while…they need to make them wider.

Or the Mystic Star Hybrid Harness?

Hey Toby,
I ordered the Mystic Star Hybrid. Should be here in a week or so. After I get a few sessions on it, I'll report back.

Plus a picture from the back, to see how it fits. Thanks!

some good news for us who love the Pat Love hybrid...

It is now called "Ace"...

https://www.pat-love.com/

The colors are a bit too fancy for me...but I asked them and they say in few months time they will get all black...

I am using the prolimit kite seat combo and like it a lot but the leg straps are rather snug (at maximum length) so crouching to grab the board handle is nearly impossible while tail grabs are fine. Does anyone else have this issue? I'm considering extending the leg straps somewhat to make them looser
