Hi,
I'm looking for a new harness specifically for wave riding and some strapless freestyle and was wondering if anyone had tried the Manera Halo and your impression.
Cheers!
I've tried the halo once. I like the fact that it's very light, so good for travel and looks well built, but Unsure if its really for me.
I tried it in super gusty and strong winds (Gusting up to 40 kn) and for me it was quite a long session - probably 3 hrs. Near the end I found it was starting to hurt my sides a bit, lower ribs, especially when riding toe side. I was using twintip and mostly jumping and messing around in the waves.
I'm not sure if I could have maybe tried a slightly bigger size spreader bar to solve the issue (I've heard this harness is very particular in needing to get the exact size), but for now I'm gonna stick with my trusty ole 7 yr old warrior harness. I have heard others saying its a good harness for waves, but not great for powered / overpowered riding, looping etc...
