The latest innovation in the advance of sailing is the PALM
HARNESS™ PRO. The new ultra thin streamlined design
gives added flexibility when needed for more control and
ease of handling. It is compact and versatile maximizing
your full potential, allowing for a stronger grip, preventing
hand fatigue and cramping. This results in longer sailing
time and longer hang time in the most challenging conditions.
It allows for greater acceleration in strong gusts and aids
finger grip in cold weather conditions.
The Palm Harness™ can add hours to your sailing time
and is strong enough to handle extreme loads, yet it is light
and easy to use. The Palm Harness can be adjusted, accommodating
different size wrists and hands. It supports the wrists,
yet allows free motion of the hands.
You control this device easily because the finger loop is
placed around the middle fingers of each hand. The loop is
secured to the lightweight hook, allowing it to remain in
contact with your fingers and follow the motion of each hand
while either holding or releasing the Palm Harness™.
This feature insures quick release of the boom when jibing
and does not interfere with grabbing the mast or other objects.
May be worn with or without gloves.
