Description
The Manera HALO 2.0 keeps the Adaptive Shell technology, which separates load management from comfort: a rigid shell that doesn't deform under the kite's pull and a flexible skin that adapts to your body. Following a review of its parts, the Adaptive Skin and the inner and outer pivots have been redesigned to be much stronger without losing comfort, with testing in the factory, on the water and in the lab.
Who it's for
- Kite riders looking for maximum support without giving up comfort.
- Freeride, big air and long sessions with lots of pull.
- Anyone who wants one of Manera's most advanced harnesses.
Features
- Adaptive Skin: a flexible support skin in contact with the body that adapts to your shape and movements. Its job is comfort.
- Hardshell: a rigid arc that doesn't deform under the kite's pull and doesn't squeeze your sides. It doesn't touch the body; its job is to manage the load.
- Softshell: the soft part that lets the harness adapt to the body.
- ARC bar: a new-generation spreader bar, more precise and comfortable, that helps the harness stay in place.
- Leash attachment: at the front so you can release it easily in an emergency; it sits on the right and the metal ring can be moved to the left side without any trouble. Manera warns that Naish leashes are not compatible with the size of its ring.
Replacement bar: Manera ARC Spreaderbar.
Colour
Available in Stormy, black and steel blue.

Frequently asked questions
What is Adaptive Shell?
A hard-shell harness doesn't deform but doesn't adapt either; a soft one adapts but gives under the pull. The HALO separates the two functions: the Hardshell takes the load and the Adaptive Skin takes care of comfort.
Which bar does it come with?
It comes with the ARC bar, which makes it easy to switch from the standard hook to a rope slider; the rope is included.
