Windsurfing accessories

Neoprene & harnesses

- Thin surfing gloves protect against blisters, softened skin and sunburn in warm water, without significantly compromising grip.
- ION gloves are thin, lightweight and offer a very direct feel on the boom; they are particularly suitable as summer and all-round gloves with good grip.
- Ascan gloves offer more robust protection against the cold and wind; they are thicker, less responsive and, due to their reinforcements, tend to crease on the palm.

- The choice of summer wetsuit depends on your skill level, water and air temperatures, wind strength, the area you’re kitesurfing in, and your sun protection needs.  
- Different models (shorty, steamer, long john, long-sleeved/3/4-sleeved shorty, thermal base layer, Lycra, neoprene shorts) offer varying levels of protection and comfort.  
- Knee protection and sealed seams are particularly important when getting back on the board frequently, in cold water or in rough conditions, to prevent you from getting cold and to avoid injuries.

- We tested two lightweight summer neoprene shoes from France: Atan Sunfast and Wetty Reef Surf Boots, both with latex soles.
- Atan Sunfast: very soft, good fit, balanced compromise between protection and board feel, but narrow entry.
- Wetty Reef: very light, cut-resistant Armortex, strong barefoot feel with little cushioning, treadless sole and large size jumps.

- GA Beat hip harness (€249) offers a soft, snug fit, good pressure distribution and great freedom of movement for a wide range of uses.  
- Quick-release fastener holds securely, but is a little awkward to open/close and doesn't look fully developed.  
- The harness is heavily padded, protects the ribcage and sits very comfortably, but tends to run a little smaller than usual.

Harnesses: GA Beat - particularly comfortable waist harness on test
