OURSTORY Ride Engine started with a Santa Cruz waterman, his creative ingenuity and a deep reverence for the ocean as Mother Nature’s greatest playground. Coleman Buckley graduated from Stanford In 2010 with a degree in biology before returning to Santa Cruz to reconnect with his roots and evaluate his future‌ and to surf. As the months blew by, Buckley, an avid tinkerer, started experimenting with designing kitesurfing harnesses. No harness on the market met the expectations or demands he and his friends had, so he set to work creating one himself. In
a makeshift lab in his garage, Buckley experimented with several Frankenstein designs, dissecting various harnesses, stitching together their components and bringing them to life in the sunny California breaks. With collaboration from friends and pro riders, it wasn’t long before Buckley had created something genuinely revolutionary: the Armor harness. The buzz about the hard-shell, fully customizable form-fitting harness spread quickly, and Buckley unexpectedly found himself a busy business owner and designer, struggling to meet the demand for his sought-after products.
OURSTORY
C O N T.
In the fall of 2014 Buckley joined forces with 7 Nation, a board sports company based in the Pacific Northwest. With significantly more resources and collaborators from multiple industries at its disposal, Ride Engine quickly had the ability to branch out and develop new product lines crossing over to other action sports. Ride Engine is launching three models of highly-refined Armor harnesses to international markets in the summer of 2015 and will follow with a full line of wetsuits this fall. With a mantra of innovation through intimate rider-designer collaboration, Ride Engine continues to branch out, and has connected with top riders and
innovators in the wake industry to develop a line of high-end wakeboarding accessories that will enter the market later this year. Collaboration with the best has always been at the core of Ride Engine, and as the company moves forward that concept will remain integral to how it operates. Ride Engine works with and relies on the most elite athletes in their sports to design top-quality products that help connect people with the activities that make them happy. And with those fundamentals at heart, the future is wide open.
HARNESSEVOLUTION
BORN OUT OF A DESIRE TO CREATE A TRULY FORM-FITTING HARNESS, RIDE ENGINE’S ARMOR IS THE FIRST KITEBOARDING HARNESS TO FEATURE UNPRECEDENTED DESIGN ELEMENTS THAT WILL CHANGE EXPECTATIONS OF HOW A KITEBOARDING HARNESS SHOULD LOOK, FEEL AND PERFORM. The core of the Armor is an ergonomic and form fitting hard shell designed from hundreds of precision molds. Unlike traditional harnesses that bend and flex, and consequently focus load on certain pressure points, the Armor shell contours firmly to the rider’s back and sides, distributing load evenly across the lumbar and hips and locking the harness in the ideal position. The effect is a lightweight, low-profile, form-fitting piece of equipment that will dramatically improve the user’s entire kiteboarding experience. With traditional harnesses, riders are often forced to rotate their harness from side to side to get pull from the proper angle when carving upwind, riding toeside or catching waves. That range of motion requires a looseness in the harness that also allows up and down and torsional movement, which results in pull from the improper angle, rider discomfort, constricted breathing, back pain and limited mobility, among other issues. With the Armor’s hard-shell Lumbar Lock technology, the harness does not rotate or ride up; it locks in place and stays exactly where it should. This keeps the connection to the kite at its optimum location, the rider’s core and center of effort, where leverage, power, comfort and control are maximized. With a harness that locks in place, lateral motion must come from the connection between kite and harness, so we’ve designed an ingeniously simple spreader bar system that attaches directly to the rider’s chicken loop via a high strength rope running the length of the spreader bar. This allows the chicken loop to slide smoothly from side to side as the rider changes positions and angles of attack and brings the control bar closer the rider’s body, which results in more ergonomic control as the bar’s maximum throw is moved closer to the rider’s body.
PROBLEMSOLVED “I love this [harness]! It’s so much better for wave riding it’s laughable... It solves a problem I didn’t even realize I had. And so comfortable!” - Fletch (Santa Cruz Shaper)
Conventional kiteboarding harnesses have a major flaw in how they function, and the Armor harness solves it exceptionally well. Riders are often forced to rotate their harnesses from side to side to get pull from the proper angle when carving upwind, riding toeside or catching waves. That range of motion requires a looseness in the harness that also allows vertical and torsional movement, which often results in rider discomfort, constricted breathing, back pain, pull from the wrong angle and a variety of other issues.
CONNECTION MADE SIMPLE: Deploy your control bar’s chicken loop quick release. Thread the chicken loop’s open end around the spreader bar rope. Simply re-engage your chicken loop’s quick release to ensure attachment. Now you are ready to experience the ultimate rider connection.
With the Armor’s hard-shell Lumbar Lock technology, the harness does not rotate or slide; it locks in place and stays exactly where it should. This means lateral motion must come from the spreader bar. Ride Engine has designed an ingeniously simple spreader bar and pad system that connects directly with the rider’s chicken loop. This setup is totally unique and provides a smooth and full range of motion, allowing the harness’s lumbar lock technology to work its magic.
“I love this sytem for its simple functionality and performance, as well as the peace of mind i receive knowing that my connection is trusted before even leaving the beach.”
- Patrick Rebstock
PROBLEMSOLVED
All kiteboarders know the tendency their spreader bar has of riding up way too high. No matter how well your harness fits, or how tight you can get it, your spreader bar eventually works it’s way up your chest. While inadequate harness technology is certainly part of the issue, the main culprit in this case is overly complex design. As the spreader bar hook extends out from your harness, it creates a lever that is frustratingly effective at inching your harness up your waist and chest during a session. This problem is not just an annoyance; it can dramatically reduce the quality of your entire kiteboarding experience. It causes chest and back pain, restricted breathing and reduced performance as your kite pulls from an improper angle, among other issues.
PROBLEM SOLVED: Ride Engine’s metal slider Bar in combination with the integration of Lumbar Lock solves this problem exceptionally well. With the streamlined sliding rope system, the components adjust independently of one another; as the kite pulls from different angles the rope hinges up and down to accommodate, allowing the spreader bar, and your harness, to stay exactly where they are supposed to. This brilliantly-simplistic design is a key component to Ride Engine’s success in solving a problem that many riders have simply lived with over the years.
HEXSERIES
HEXSERIESTECH Ride Engine’s Hex Core harnesses are built around a back plate constructed with our proprietary resin transfer honeycomb core technology. This high-tech method injects resin into a special honeycomb core, then vacuum seals it to distribute the resin evenly and form the lumbar profile. This is the most flexible of the three Armor models, making it a bit more forgiving and universally fitting than the Pro and Elite series. Don’t let that description fool you though; this is still a rigid, form fitting harness that will to lock firmly in place like no other.
ARMOR SHELL Industry’s first hard shell harness, the Armor is light, strong and ergonomically contoured. Load is distributed seamlessly from the spreader bar to the armor shell, preventing harness from buckling or pinching.
PRECISION FIT Modeled from hundreds of custom body molds, the harness shell conforms to the contours of a rider’s back for a precision ergonomic fit.
REMOVABLE HANDLE PASS LEASH Harness comes with easily removable handle pass leash mount around the back for freestyle riders. Harness also has two front-mounted leash attachment points for use when handle pass leash is removed.
LUMBAR LOCK Harness conforms to lumbar, back and sides to lock securely in place. Harness won’t slide from side to side or ride up.
LOW PROFILE Hard-shell core allows for low-profile design, reducing weight and bulk and giving riders more mobility with less restrictions.
FUSION FOAM Soft foam core conforms to the shape of your torso for ultimate comfort and hold.
SPEED-LOCK ATTACHMENT LOOPS Spreader bar attaches with a light-weight loops for simple, quick and effortless entry and exit.

Thicker at the core where heat retention is critical and tapered where flexibility matters most, the Silo 4/3 and 3/2 will keep you warm and comfortable on the water so you can focus on what really matters: having fun. The 4/3 Silo features an interior Poly Fleece lining on the chest and side panels while the 3/2 version does not.

features all of the same high-end materials and construction as Ride Engine’s men’s suits, but with an attractive splash of color and style to set it apart. The Elara’s easy-entry back zip design comes in two thicknesses, 4/3 and 3/2, with both thickest at the core and tapered at the extremities to balance warmth and flexibility where they are needed most. Both versions feature an interior liner of plush Poly Fleece to help retain body heat and minimize water absorption. The 4/3 is extensively lined with this material, in the front and back core and the entire midsection, while the 3/2 is lined exclusively in the front chest panel for core warmth.
