hi guys,

So I broke a very very old safety leash over the weekend.

I normally just attached the safety to the back of my harness.

I ride Ozone however the only leash available was cabrinah, the attachment point is now on front of the harness.

I assume this makes is safer in the case of a kitemare.

Can someone advise?

Unless you're handle passing mate there's really no need to attach at the back...
You can still attach the cab leashes to the back, just do away with the velcro/ring bit, but you run the risk of turning into a human taco on a good beat down..
Cab have by far the best leashes and safety systems in the business...

I second that. The whole sport would benefit if maufacturers dumped their egos and commercial prejudices annd agreed on the same safety system.
