2015 Manera Harness

Postby IanNJ » Thu Apr 02, 2015 3:53 pm

Check out the link for the review on the manera harness. I have been using one of these for a year. Just got two new ones (one will have a slider on it). Mostly the same as 2014 but I realize these are not super popular. So figured I would give folks an idea of the harness.

Great write up and I think you nailed it pretty well. I have the Manera harness also and I love it. I'd give a similiar review and are spot on about how it feels. Only other thing I can mention is the rope on the back of the harness for your leash also has a quick release. I love that it has this, sometimes it can be hard to reach your kite leash eject when getting dragged backwards thru the water! I know it sucks! But having a rope eject on both sides of the harness are easier to reach and significantly safer!!
Its much easier to reach your side when dragging than to reach behind the middle of your back when being yanked by a out of control looping kite :cry:
I think Manera has really put a lot of thought, design, visual appeal and R&D into his products. Quality is good and I hope his line of wetsuits, luggage, kite bags, harness and clothing really take off and people check them out. Wish him luck..
