This could well be the dumbest question ever:

Yesterday I purchased a dakine nitros board short harness to replace an old seat harness that no longer fits. Could someone who has a pair tell me (here's the dumb bit) does the strap inside the shorts go in front of your leg or behind your leg?

When I tried them on in the shop I had it behind my leg and it felt comfy, but that was hanging from a test bar rigged up at the shop.

Apologies in advance if it seems too dumb to answer, but it's the first time I've had a board shorts harness.

It goes in front of or rather round your thigh

Otherwise the strap resting behind your leg would do.... Nothing

Excellent thanks. When it was behind my leg and I was resting the hook on the test bar in the shop I could feel the strap pulling against my butt which is why I was in question.

Thanks again.

I take a line from Richard Dawkins here:

If people ask is there such a thing as a stupid question? The answer is yes! For instance, what colour is jealousy?


I was only hoping I didn't fall into his definition (at least this time)

... for instance: (just come in from a 2/3m shore dumping waves session blowing 20 - 25 knots)

(these ones rate higher on the dumb scale btw)

- is that easy to do?
- is it expensive?
- can I do it?
- can I have a go?
- I've surfed before so I reckon I don't need lessions?
- (back to) is it hard to do?
- how much is it?
- do I really need lesson, still reckon I won't need lessons, I've skateboarded before to, plus surfed?

Dunno who Dawkins is but everyone knows jealously is green

My first harness was an old trapeze,
had straps all over it but I cut them off rather than ask where they should go...

still works fine
