Can I use any booster seat with my Kid Y harness?

Safety Angel
Although other boosters are tested to meet FMVSS213, they are only tested with a lap and shoulder belt. The Ride Ryte booster is the only booster tested and approved to use either a lap and shoulder belt, or a lap belt with the Kid Y harness. Safety Angel instruction manuals state this and best practice according to NHTSA guidelines is to follow manufacture's instruction for use in vehicles.

After that, you can move to a front-facing seat or a booster until at least 7 years of age. Check your state's seatbelt laws here for more detailed information.

When can I move my child into a booster seat?

Not until she has completely outgrown her regular safety seat when she weighs more than 40 pounds or is too tall for it. She is too tall if her shoulders are higher than the top set of harness slots or if the tips of her ears are above the back of the safety seat (the hard plastic, not the puffy fabric). If she is too tall for her convertible seat but still weighs less than 40 pounds, switch to a child-seat/booster.

DO I NEED A HARNESS / CAN I USE MY WATER HARNESS?

Kite Snowboarding - Information about Snow Kites, Snow Kitin...
You do need a harness for kite snowboarding if you are using a kite stronger with an area larger than 3.0 square meters. Most water harnesses are overbuilt and uncomfortable for use with bulky snow clothing. We have found that land harnesses (like the Slingshot or Ozone harnesses) offer many advantages over harnesses designed for water. You can also convert some back packs into harnesses. The advantages are they fit over your outerwear. In return they are more comfortable.

Why should I use a booster?

_Childseat FAQ
Medically, there is more known now about what happens in car crashes with children. The seatbelt does not fit the child so frequently the shoulder belt goes behind a child's back. This can place the child at risk for head injury and the lap belt rides up on the stomach, placing the child at risk for internal and spinal injuries.

My dog goes on a tie-out. Should I use a collar or a harness?

Lupine® - Frequently Asked Questions
We say: neither. We don't recommend any Lupine product for tie-out. An animal tied to a fixed object can put tremendous force to the hardware (and it's own body), far more than when it is hand walked on a lead. With harnesses and leads, a pet can chew through the webbing in a matter of moments, and then be free to roam. A pet on a tie-out is also at increased risk of entanglement (hanging) or attack by at-large animals.

Question: What kind of harness should I use?

Common Husky Questions - Siberian Husky Club of Great Britai...
It depends on what you are doing. If you are into recreational mushing, Bikejouring, or racing, you should probably go with an X-back harness. This harness is the most popular and most outfitters know how to get them right. Don't buy a "roading" harness or anything like that from your local pet store -- they are too constrictive and your dog can have trouble breathing. If you are into weightpulling, there is a special harness for that.

What dildos do you recommend for use in a harness?

JT's Stockroom's Frequently Asked Questions
Just about any dildo with either a flared base that goes all the way around or one that has balls on the bottom and a flared lip on the top can be used in a harness. We recommend our Tantus silicone dildos because they were specially designed to be used with a strap on (though they are great for just general use as well!). We also offer lots of other great toys that are well suited for this purpose. If you have questions about a specific product, please feel free to contact info@stockroom.com

How does the Kid Y compare to seatbelts or other harnesses?

Safety Angel
The Kid Y is made of 1.5 inch polyester webbing that is tested and proven to be as strong as an adult seat belt, without the twisting or ''roping'' effect that other nylon webbing can do to cause injury and discomfort. Used for 30-100lbs., the loops at the harness ends are used for the lap or lap and shoulder belt (used with locking clip) to thread through, and keep under the Ride Ryte booster arms, to protect the passenger from sliding under the belt.
