I'm looking for a smallest harness available for a kid. XXS size is too big.
I'm considering maybe making a base seat harness, maybe attaching it to shorts or a waist harness attached to a floatation vest.
Any suggestions?

How tall~old is the kid?The smallest I ever saw was from Epickites
XS= 28-30" [ 71-76cm ] Perfect for 6 to 10 year old kids.
http://www.epickites.com/products/harness.phpThe reason I asked about age,is you mentioned XXS as too big,where XS should be fine for a kid within that age,I dont see how you could get up someone younger than that.
Bob from
http://www.kiteridersllc.com/ is carrying Epic brand among others,Im certain he would be able to fill you in.

Yes, you will want a harness to fit snugly on the little guy. A typical Men's XS is good down to only a 26/27" waist. I've had this request before and junior harnesses are hard to come by but alas, I think Mystic US will have a solution for us with the 2013s in Spring. In fact a size L Youth sounds like it would be the ticket and should be a reasonable $100 or so from what I understand from the preliminary info I was able to get. There will be very limited quantities but I'm glad to get one pre-ordered for you if you are interested. Give me a shout if interested and I can give you more details.
