Total comfort with ultimate support. The Connect Seat V3 is based on Ozone's lightweight Connect Waist V4, with added leg strap support that's fully adjustable to rider preference. Developed closely with Ozone's hydrofoil race team riders and multiple World Champions Nico Parlier and Axel Mazella, it delivers the ultimate in comfort for racers and entry-level freeriders alike.
Reliability, Control and No Rubbing
From freeride cruising to high-speed racing, the Connect Seat V3 transfers loads from the kite into your legs without restricting movement, and without the pressure points you feel on other harnesses. With the kite often flying high, a seat harness stays in position all day long without sliding up above your waist.
Locked-In Ride, Your Way
Attach the leg straps directly to the spreader bar for a fully locked-in ride, or leave them disconnected for a looser feel. In either setup the leg straps stop the harness sliding up, left or right, and keep your centre of gravity low. It's a great choice for freeriders who love the extra support of a seat harness, foilers and racers, and riders who want to keep the harness away from their ribs.
