We present the Point-7 seat harness.
Comment from the Wind Lounge team:
The Point-7 windsurfing seat harness, like all seat harnesses, is quite unique. This is because the pressure point that the windsurfer exerts on the sail is significantly lower than with conventional harnesses. This allows for longer Harness Lines and, in some cases, deeper Booms rides.
Ultimately, hip harnesses offer clear performance advantages. This is because they allow you to keep your center of gravity low while riding the Boom “high.” Overall, this gives windsurfers significantly more control.
However, exceptions prove the rule, and some PWA riders—especially Point-7 boss Andrea Cucchi—prefer seat harnesses. The advantage is clearly that they are easier on the back. The sail supports the experienced seat harness rider almost entirely, minimizing strain on the lower back. At the same time, the straps that go around the legs can be bothersome.
The value for money is excellent, and this seat harness was expertly designed by Point-7 CEO Andrea Cucchi.
The product description from Point-7:
Full-contact windsurfing is exactly how our PWA riders want their seat harness.
Designed with a minimalist structure and no padding to maintain a direct feel for the sail, it provides the comfort needed to achieve great average and top speeds with full control!
The harness can be adjusted to the millimeter, ensuring the optimal fit, comfort, and performance from your entire rig.
Thanks to the double webbing on the sides, the height of the hook can be adjusted. The hook can be positioned higher on the body for strong winds and lowered for light winds to generate extra power.
The leg straps can also be widened or tightened depending on water conditions. They can be tightened firmly to maintain a more seated stance in light winds. Loosening them in choppy conditions allows the legs more freedom to follow the water’s surface.
The padded hook now features a quick-release system that allows you to wear the harness more comfortably. It can be opened with one hand in case of an emergency.
