Details and specifications
The X-15 Slalom Harness is designed as a hybrid between a seat and hip harness: When walking on the beach, you will feel an unusual pressure in the middle of your back—as soon as you are standing in the harness, it adapts to your position and distributes the pressure across your entire back and buttocks, not just on one point. Available in four sizes with a waist measurement to choose from.

- Injection-molded back support
- Six load distribution points
- Hidden pockets for additional weights on the back
- Ergonomic spinal support
- Package contents: Harness (additional weights not included)
