HOW ITS MADE

HARNESS TECHNOLOGY

THE CORE OF YOUR HARNESS

Prolimit harnesses are designed with a solid internal 3D shaping structure and incorporate advanced composite technologies, including outer shells, carbon outer shells, and thermoformed 3D foams.

What truly sets Prolimit apart is the internal design.
Our Mark Loadplates distribute pressure evenly, ensuring the perfect balance of support and flexibility. While other harnesses may look similar on the outside, it’s this internal structure that guarantees a superior fit, lasting comfort, and optimal performance on the water.

PURE™

A standout feature of Prolimit harnesses is our use of PURE™ composite.

PURE™ is top-of-the-range, 100% polypropylene, self-reinforced composite material. It is non-resin based and is a unique, yet durable, low weight and touch thermoplastic composite. PURE™ is thermos-formable under heat in press form processes. Furthermore, it does not splinter and has unique properties making it an excellent material for the Vapor, Addict and Argon harnesses.

PURE™ is patented and a trademark-protected material and its durability and elasticity are perfectly suited for harnesses. PURE™ is also very strong at even low temperatures – for snow kiting for example – and is a material with ballistic properties. The material can also be found in other high wear and impact products, such as ice skates, high end travel luggage and sail reinforcements.  

SEAMLESS NEOPRENE SOFT EDGES

No discomfort, no chafing, stronger construction. 

Prolimit harnesses follow more of a modular construction, meaning each part is considered. The outer profile of the soft edge has no seam, reducing the chances of chafe and discomfort. 

SPREADERBARS

A spreader bar is a crucial component to provide pressure distribution from the harness to your body, enhancing both comfort and performance. Our spreader bars are designed to provide you with the best fit and durability, all while ensuring freedom of movement during your sessions.

Pin Release Bar

The Pin-release spreader bar has an added safety. In extreme situations the pin release can be pulled as a safety and release your entire harness from your body. Our spreaderbars for kiteboarding are equipped with a short leash connection on the front, on the pin-release with a steel loop.

Alpha Bar

Our high-performance spreader bar designed for precision and comfort. Featuring a 3D shaped, molded EVA skeleton barpad for even load distribution and excellent support. Built with fiber-reinforced matrix plastic for durability, including a quick release spring lever. The Alpha Bar is multi-hook compatible (kite, windsurf, rope bar) and the slide-in barpad integrates seamlessly with our harnesses. 

Single, Dual or Multi-Webbing

Prolimit offers three webbing options for harnesses: Dual Webbing, Single Webbing, and Multi Webbing. Dual Webbing is designed for harnesses with double straps, ensuring even load distribution and added stability. Single Webbing offers ultimate maneuverability with a single attachment. Multi Webbing is versatile, fitting both single and dual webbing harnesses, providing a secure fit and optimal pressure distribution for comfort and performance.
