The Dynabar V7 XT Sliding Spreader Bar is a very unique piece of gear to add to your harness. It replaces your standard spreader bar with one that slides from side to side.
Our staff received two Dynabars to test that were installed onto DaKine and Mystic harnesses. The Dynabar was easy to install, but we had to give up the option of a quick release on the Mystic harness. Dynabar offers an optional webbing quick release you can purchase if you don’t want to thread the webbing each time you ride.

Allowing your harness hook to slide from side to side opens up your range of motion and our testers were surprised how much of a difference it made to toeside riding. Because the kite is pulling from your hip, toeside riding feels much more natural as you don’t have to fight the kite to position your body correctly.
Our testers were also pleasantly surprised to find that the Dynabar made walking on the beach and body dragging easier by moving the kite’s pulling force to the side.
Our testers even found walking and body dragging easier with the Dynabar.
During turns on the wave, you can feel the pull of the kite shift from side to side and it feels like this makes it easier to position your body in different ways while riding waves.
At first, the sensation of the kite’s pull moving from one side to the other caused a few stuffed bottom turns, but our testers quickly became used to it and began to enjoy the increased freedom it offers to your body positioning.

Both our testers really liked using the Dynabar in the waves, especially after switching to the spectra slider. Our goofy-footed tester felt the Dynabar made it much easier to ride frontside without having to fight the kite. It does take a little time to get used to, but the Dynabar definitely allows your body to move more freely when compared to a static spreader bar.
