I was using a Dakine seat harness for a couple years and last year I switched to the Mystic waist harness and was pleasantly surprised. Prior to buying a dakine seat harness I had been using a Cabrinha harness, and the one I had was probably one size too big for me, so I had a lot of problems with it riding up. After a rib injury, I decided to go with the seat harness. Seat harnesses have their benefits to with a more centered feel from the waist and hips and good support. As such, I held off on a seat harness for along time, but tried the Mystic and have been stoked on it. It's lightweight and provides good support and rides up very little when fitted properly. As with any harness, it's always best to wet it thoroughly prior to use and cinching it down tight as you can. The Mystic hook has a nice shape to it also, which helps unintentional unhook from happening during rotations and radical moves.

Guys,
As featured in Kiteboarding and Kiteboarder magazines the Mystic Warrior has been the most successful waist harness worldwide.
There is too much to talk about these harnesses regarding the Kinetic System it uses, the assembly process, the construction (double walls etc), the batten system, the spreader hold down for no ride up and the innovative safety systems that come complete with the assymetric pad, kite specific speader bar, as well as a mesh bag to hang the harness after use for quick drying.

Ollie - come this weekend to grab your Mystic 5/3 wetsuit before it's sold.

Got the new Mystic Razor from Evan on Saturday and wore it Sunday at Bodega. Kept me nice and toasty. Easily the best fitting suit I have tried on. I didn't have to fight with it for 15 minutes to get it on either like some others. Only time will tell if it holds up like an Oneill, but right now I am a very happy camper. Thanks Evan

The Mystic Razor is a new model for 2007. The fit is between the Mystic Steamer and the Virus, if you are familiar with the line.
When Wade tried it seemed as if it was made for him - Same as Ramsey when he got his Virus XXL yesterday seemed as if it was a perfect match, similar to Mark's comments on his Virus.
I am stoked with the Mystic wetsuits - it's only a matter of time till people try them out and know what a super flexy and technical suit made for kiteboarding should feel like.
We have these suits in stock as well as the Flame, Venom, Virus, Mystic Steamer in stock, and we will be getting the Crossfire my mid/end of March...
Now we better put them online since they are not all there yet....

Just received my Mystic Steamer 5/3 wetsuit from Evan at live2kite a few days ago and tried it out for the first time at Half Moon Bay on the ocean side this past Saturday. This is the best wetsuit I have ever owned for kiteboarding. Super comfortable, warm, easy to get into, flexible, kite specific, shin guard padding, special material around the waist to work extremely well with the Mystic Warrior harness so that the harness doesn't ride up, and looks cool. Check one out next time you buy a wetsuit, definitely worth it.

Evan, A beautiful blond "birdie" in a very cool blue wetsuit jacket told me that you are carrying the ladies line of Mystic, Maui Magic. Could this be true? I bought a rip curl a couple of weeks ago so I could play at HMB. Loved the water time, hate the wetsuit. Where can I get more info about the Maui Magic line? The website gives little to no info and lists no US distributors. I'm specifically looking for sizing (What's the sizing on an L for example) and prices. Let me know, and I'll be signing up!! :)
It ain't easy being greene.
