Zhik T3 Trapeze Harness

Zhik T3 Trapeze Harness

ZHIK’S NEW T3 TRAPEZE HARNESS ULTRA QUICK RELEASE SYSTEM SETS YOU FREE IN SECONDS


Zhik's new T3 Trapeze Harness exceeds all previous levels of quick release harness safety, performance and comfort.

A quick pull of the unique quick release Velcro system (patent pending) and the T3 Trapeze Harness is off you.

Zhik's concept is that it is not just the trapeze hook which can get caught, so getting free of the entire harness is vital in a bad capsize situation.  How it works:

  • secure double Velcro waist closure system is designed to give excellent close-fitting support
  • a firm, direct pull on two high-vis ripcord grab tabs, instantly breaks the hold of the Velcro
  • a quick unclick of the chest buckle, the harness falls away from the body within seconds.

It is similar to pulling a parachute ripcord. The pull tabs are easy to grip and in easy reach, yet cannot be caught or activated accidentally.
The T3 Harness refined quick release process means you can swim free in just a few seconds.  Potentially, these are crucial seconds if you are trapped in the water.


Designed with input from Zhik’s team of elite dinghy sailors, the T3 offers:

  • personalised lower back support with a movable lumbar support
  • Velcro waist adjustment for a snug and secure fit to support your pelvis
  • no buckle adjustments or lacing eyes to catch or impinge movement
  • additon of impact protection; Zhik's Kollition Spine Pad fits in a pocket in the back of the harness
  • interchangeable spreader bar
  • stretch fabric for the harness crotch design, for enduring comfort
  • ZhikTex II reinforced seat panel both protects from wear

Made from a robust, perforated 600 denier nylon for quick water drainage from spray. the mesh construction also increases air flow to keep you cool.
