Anyone had a crack at this?

What mods would you have to make to your harness or just get a really big one and strap it around both people?

Could it be possible to join the mile high club on a kite?

Probably.Although It might be difficult to find an instructor that was willing to do it to you.

Imagine getting a holdunder on a big wave in a tandem harness.

Looks good and good on them being able to share the feeling of kiting. I am not sure if you were joking but don't use one harness around 2 people. With a little force, one person will squash the other, and potentially very bad.

You think squashing would happen

.....kite only pulls on harness hook so forces are pulling the front of the harness creating more space back to front, But I guess the side forces could be an issue

Thnx Jono def worth consideration.

nah i agree
i reckon you're gonna need a release system between the two harnesses . if you go down in the surf and get tumbled you're gonna be in a world of trouble trying to sort yourself out
Flat water though, not really any issue. way safer!

I showed it to my girlfriend... she said "That's awesome, when are we doing it?"

I'm wondering what size board would suit (I'm 75kg, she's 55kg)

The biggest board in your quiver would be fine.

What do you need a harness for? Just plug and play

Maybe you just Cara INA from your front to their handle at the back? If you have two harnesses this might work. They should have also showed a video of the bloopers!
