ION Waist Kite Riot Curv

Description

ION Riot Curv is a high-performance waist harness for kitesurf that gives you maximum support and precise control without compromising freedom of movement. The harness is built for progressive riding and works well for everything from freeride and wave to foiling. It now features the new Spectre Bar 2, which distributes the load evenly and keeps you stable in front of the kite.

At the heart of the harness is ION’s exclusive CURV® composite: a 3D-shaped hardshell that provides firm support in the center, while the more flexible sides naturally conform to your body. The result is the ideal balance of stiffness and flexibility - a reliable platform for aggressive maneuvers with complete freedom of movement. The included Spectre Bar 2 has a lightweight yet extremely strong hook plate that improves load distribution and lets you control the kite with precision. 3D Fit technology also lets you fine-tune the fit: the harness comes in eight sizes from XS to LT (including tall sizes), and the replaceable Ergo_Pad comes in two thicknesses so you can tailor the lower back support to your body and riding style.

  • 3D PLUS_Spine: The three-dimensional back plate provides extra-strong support for your back and lower back - without restricting your movement.
  • Replaceable Ergo_Pad: Choose between two pads with medium or high support for personalized lower back support that also helps prevent injuries.
  • Hyper_Foam: Viscoelastic foam that doesn’t absorb water, keeps the harness lightweight, and ensures an ergonomic, close fit throughout your session.
  • Internal Flex_Belt: A flexible inner closure belt that conforms to your anatomy and keeps the harness precisely in place.
  • Spectre flaps: Easily removable flaps made of durable TPE plastic that prevent the spreader bar from tilting upward and provide greater stability and responsiveness.
  • C_30_Buckle: Lightweight carbon buckle for quick and easy adjustment of the spreader bar straps.
  • Leash D-Ring: Practical attachment point for your kite leash next to the spreader bar - can be placed on whichever side you prefer.

    How to care for your ION Riot Curv harness

    • After each session: Rinse the harness thoroughly in clean fresh water to remove salt, sand, and sweat - salt residue is harsh on the fabric, foam, and metal parts such as the hook and buckles.
    • Cleaning: Hand wash only in lukewarm water with mild soap. Never use a washing machine, tumble dryer, iron, or harsh cleaning products - they damage the foam, neoprene, and CURV® composite shell.
    • Drying: Let the harness air-dry naturally in the shade, preferably laid flat or hanging at full length. Avoid direct sunlight and heat sources such as radiators, as UV light and heat break down the materials over time.
    • Storage: Store the harness somewhere dry, cool, and dark - for example, in a harness bag or on a shelf - and avoid squeezing the hardshell tightly for long periods.
    • Check before use: Regularly check the straps, buckles, stitching, and hook for wear or damage, and replace worn parts before heading out on the water.
