    Oh wow – Tencate days with a mastfoot that came out at the most awkward times and gave you a knock out in the ‘most privates’! As for shorts they would still look cool on the fairer sex and yes…….I remember having some sort of similar ”Bra Harness” contraption!

    I had one of those things. You would hook in and it would squeeze your ribs so tight that you couldn’t breath.
    It’s interesting because I’m in the process of finding a new harness to replace my “vintage” surf seat. Now I find that todays waist harnesses, instead, squeeze my lower ribs.
    Maybe I just have squishy ribs?
