I've been watching TW Custom in Oslo for a while now because they are seriously pushing the limits, thinking well outside the box and introducing exciting new ideas about making gear. Like boards that weigh in at 4kg. Exciting stuff for someone like me that enjoys nerding out on this stuff. they also have the hipster harness I'm seriously excited about. recently, I changed from seat to waist and my take away is I lost a little bit of bottom end. Is the hipster the missing link..?
then this. breathable foam. boards that can be dried out.. Holy ****in **** Batman..mind blown.

I think so.. I'm going to try and find out more.. one of the Japanese pwa riders is using one for wave sailing.
There is a patent doc on the website with diagrams etc that explains it. Looks like a combination seat/waist harness.
