Thinking of investing a new super comfy and supportive harness, looking at either;

1. Flying objects flight control 2010
2. Liquid Force Luxury 2.0

Anyone ride in one of these? If so what ya reckon?

Just try both and see which one gives you more support and comfort. Your local shops in WA should be able to lend you both to demo. Take it out for a session, not just try it on on land. People on the forum will give you biased advice because they are either linked to a brand/business, just like me . But the 2010 LF luxury harness is really exceptional, super comfy, well padded with great support. It also feature rashguard protection, giving additional protection around the trim. Try it and you will see what I mean.

Not sure why you hate their kites so much. I don't ride liquid force kites but I tried the 2010 havoc and its bloody awesome. One of the best kites I've ever tried. Felt way better than the Nomad I tried.

In Victoria it doesn't matter what kite you have because the wind howls in hard. Any kite is good in 20-30knots.

Geez, I doubt that, every harness in ever size available for demo, never seen that over here!

I have owned an older version of the liquid force luxury harness and the 2009 flight control, both had heaps of padding and soft edges so were both super comfy. Biggest thing I noticed was the the liquid force weighed an absolute ton once it got wet, whereas the flight control did not absorb much water. I don't know how the new Liquid force is constructed but if it ends up weighing as much as the last one did I'd be frustrated with it.
