Carbon hard shell construction

ION Waist Kite Spectre

The ION Spectre kite harness delivers maximum support with a carbon shell and ergonomic fit, trusted by Andrea Principi, King of the Air 2024 champion.

ION takes harness innovation to the next level with the all-new Spectre, a next-generation design built to push boundaries and dominate sessions. At its core: ION's first-ever fully carbon shell, delivering unmatched back support and lightning-fast response. The Carbon Fusion Plate provides maximum stiffness with minimal weight, achieving a best-in-class stiffness-to-weight ratio.

Weighing in at just 1050g, the Spectre is 14% lighter than the Riot Curv (size M), making it one of the lightest and most responsive harnesses in ION's lineup. Inside, the Hydro_Cush liner, a non-water-absorbent EVA foam, keeps you dry and comfortable session after session. The integrated Ergo_Pad ensures an ergonomic fit that adapts to your body for all-day support. Contest-tested and rider-approved by Andrea Principi and Edgar Ulrich, the Spectre isn't just a harness, it's your competitive edge. Comes equipped with ION's Spectre Bar 2.0 and aluminium hook.

All harnesses are delivered as a complete set, including the spreader bar (incl. hook), kite knife and safety leash handle.

Key features

Carbon fusion plate

The carbon fusion plate brings maximum rigidity, offering excellent responsiveness and back support.

C_30_Buckle

Easy-to-handle carbon adjustment of the spreader bar webbings with a pleasantly light weight.

Hydro_Cush liner

Non-water-absorbent, fully moulded EVA padding. Prevents the harness from riding up or rotating unwillingly.

Ergo_Pad

The integrated Ergo_Pad on the harness inside offers optimal lumbar support, for ergonomic back support and injury prevention.

Internal Flex_Belt

A flexible closing belt system on the inside guarantees a snug fit and adapts perfectly to the rider's individual anatomy.

Kite_Knife 2.0 multitool

Multitool and safety knife including a Torx (TX20) key and PH3; can be used for footstraps and the modular hook system of ION's spreader bars.

Leash D-Ring

Kite leash attachment point next to your spreader bar for enhanced safety and usability. Light and robust, and the side can be varied depending on personal preference.
