Description
Harness the power for your traction activities
- waist style harness suitable for all land and water based
activities.
Five time world champion Aaron Hadlow has
his own harness - the all new Signature model!
The Hadlow signature model has been designed
for Aaron’s
special requirement. A 100% performance and comfort harness!
It features an extreme 3D shaped load distribution plates
and 3D moulded floating pillow to follow the movement of
his body.
For comfort Prolimit have intergrated their
neoprene soft edges and Dual Foam System (DFS). Prolimit's
stump nose spreader
bar is mounted on the new Integrated slide-in bar pad system.
For Hadlow's special tricks - Prolimit have HPL stainless
steel attachment points with new PULL release and an easy
to
grab integrated
grab handle.
Performance: High to medium back support
without the stiff feeling of a moulded harness.
Extreme 3D shaped load distribution plates,
3D moulded floating pillow, neoprene soft edges. Dual foam
system (DFS) and of course a 'stump nose' kite spreader bar.
Medium to high back support
HPL (Handle-pass leash) attachment points in stainless steel
and integrated grab handle.
Developed together with Aaron Hadlow - the Pro Limit team
have a new slick looking and perfectly working bar pad which
integrates perfectly with this type of harness.
Dual Foam System:
Developed in conjunction with Prolimit's 3D Shaping, the
dual foam system focuses on further distributing any
pressure
evenly
over the harness area. Comprising of two layers of dual
density
foam, the inner layer of medium density foam forms to the
bodies' specific contour, while the higher density outside
layer absorbs the primary load from the reinforcing plate.
This system means we can reduce the thickness of our
reinforcing
plate, which once again increases mobility.
Floating Pillow:
Prolimit introduces SHAPE & TECHNOLOGY systems. The
internal 3D shaped board is on the exterior of the harness
leaving the inner pillow supporting for a 100% your back.
The Floating pillow will adjust it's height automatically
to your back.
Integrated Bar Pad:
The downhold loops on the harness are sewn on to a large plate
which prevents the bar from riding up onto your ribs and locks
the bar in it's place still being one with the harness. The
smart solution for kiteboarders!
Neoprene Soft Edge:
To prevent edge tension, rash and discomfort when using a
waist harness, we developed the neoprene soft edge. The inside
and outside skin of the harness feature a lycra covered neoprene
edge that flexes easily and covers the traditionally abrasive
edge of the harness.
Pin Release Spreader:
Throughout the years - Pro Limit'sPin Release Spreader has
established itself as the easiet to use and most robust
Quick Release
system on the market today. All stainless steel components
make it “bombproof” and engaging and releasing
the spreader takes a push or a pull, its really that
simple.
Completely patented and the best working
QR system.
Kidney Belt:
All Pro Limits waist harnesses are equipped with a Kidney
neoprene belt. Pro Limit's stickflex body control belt is
designed specially for kiteboarders who want a tighter fit,
less movement and greater control. It is well known in various
other sports that a kidney belt supports your kidney's, making
you less tired and keeps you healthy.
The wide neoprene belt is specially designed
using a unique combination of neoprene and ski material for
a perfect fit and additional warmth.
- Unique 3D shaped fit technology by shaped
innerplates
- Kite bar pad integrated design
- Stump nose hook design
- Unique pin release system
- Molded 3D floating pillow
- Dual Foam system
Specs
Specifications:
Shape: The
human body is not geometrical and straight. It has complex
curves. The current fashion in kiting is molded harnesses;
but molded harnesses are not made with seam shaping, they
are flat 2 dimensional moldings!
For 2010 Prolimit have brought more shaping
into our harness than ever thought possible. This decreases
edge tension in waist harnesses and ensures a body hugging
fit that keeps your harness from riding up.
Technology: You
can see clearly how Prolimit shape the harness and its inner
structure. All the active forces are absorbed and distributed
by the
reinforced plates on the outside of the harness.
The inner shape provides the body contact and cushions
the body from the forces carried by the outside skin
and structure. The layered construction is a world standard,
but the shaping is unique to Prolimit.

3D Hybrid Molded Technology:
Molded outside with horizontal shaping seams and a conventional

3D Shaped
Inner-Plates:
The shape of the harness is strongly
based on the internal reinforcements. Inner plates
are pre-shaped so they fit like a glove.

3D Moulded
Pillow:
Combined with our 3D shaped load
distribution plates the 3D moulded floating pillow
supports the lower back providing a snug and
comfortable fit.
3D moulded and disconnected from
the internal foam layers and load distribution
plates gives the best foam memory and perfect
support and fit.

Neoprene
Soft Edges:
All of our harnesses are designed with neoprene soft edges to avoid abrasion
that leads to rash.
The soft edges also allow flex
in vulnerable areas like the ribs and give
more freedom of movement.

DFS (Dual
Foam System):
Prolimt's Dual Foam System has taken another step forward. For years
they have been building harnesses with a dual aspect to the application
of the foam padding.
Prolimit wanted to have a strong
supporting outside shell with a comfortable
inner lining which is pliable and can conform
to individual body shapes. This is achieved
with a dual density laminated foam layer. Prolimit
have now gone one step further. Which carry
the dynamic loads in the harness.

Neoprene
Waist Belt:
Prolimit waist harnesses are equipped with a neoprene waist belt.
Using a lined neoprene belt whichallows for rotation needed in kiteboarding
during high torque activities (toeside riding etc.)
Providing anatomic
support for the kidneys. This is done in all
sports where high G manoevures and constant
shaking can damage the kidneys.
There is additional padding provided
by the neoprene layers and additional thermal
protection.

Spreader
Bars:
Stump nose bar for kiteboarding.
The patented quick release pin system used on all Prolimit bars. Unique,
quick release, easy and durable.

|
|
MLP:
The new Prolimit MLP bar system features a multiple
load point system that spreads the forces evenly
through the harness, creating a more comfortable
fit and a more stable bar position.
The MLP
system works effectively to keep the
spreader from twisting and riding up. It also
allows you to adjust the
height of the spreader bar on seat harnesses
where it is used with wide strap attachment
positions.

Integrated
Bar Pad:
Most kitewaist harnesses feature their own design-specific
barpads, unique to the models.

Integrated Grab Handle:
Featuring a molded rubber grabhandle with webbing reinforcing
for safety.
Handle Pass Leash Connection Point:
The points for attaching the handle pass leash
or rope are extra reinforced stainless steel
D-rings. 38mm oversized
d-rings on waist harnesses.
Removeable Handlepass Quick Release
Unit:
Some high end Kite waist harnesses feature
a removable quick release unit on the 38mm
D-ring
for extra safety. This unit can be removed
and just the rope with tubing can be used.

More
comfortable, less complexed and stronger than ever! Lewis
Wilby
I have been riding the Hadlow Pro harness for the last 2 years
now! Every year Prolimit come up with new innovative designs
that make there harness’s more comfortable, less complexed
and stronger than ever!
This year’s harness offers super comfort - especially
for all those people who hate the feeling of moulded edges
that most other harnesses offer.
This harness has very soft neoprene edges,
which fits tightly but offer much more movement without the
harness digging into your ribs or hips.
The biggest improvement for the harness has been its very
simple design, much easier than any other designs. To put
this harness on all you need to do is set it up to the correct
set up once and then use the release system on the left hand
side.
I have been using this harness for a good few months now,
over some of the craziest terrain such as tarmac, dried lakes
and pebbles. The back of the harness never deteriorates even
when sliding on it.
The handle at the back is perfect for attaching a handlepass
leash to. I’m yet to destroy one on any of my Prolimit
harness because it has been designed specifically for the
job.
Overall- I have never ridden a harness like this! I took me
years to find the right harness and since having the Prolimit
Aaron Hadlow Signature Pro waist harness, I’ve never
looked back and each year they get better and better.
