Great harness with some things I’d personally change.
Im the Owner of Bloom N Branch, a Tree Service business. So I put my equipment through some intense situations at times. Like the first job I did with this harness I was swinging around a canopy of a 60’ silver maple. I’ve only been climbing a couple years and never had the opportunity to wear a high dollar petzl or weaver but I’ve tried a couple different harnesses and this ones definitely the better of them. It does seem to run a bit smaller compared to my last two harnesses but not so much so I can’t wear it.Now for the good stuff. I’ve only used it 5 times, but, it was 5 days in a row and 5-8 hours a session without too much discomfort. The waist belt is actually pretty comfy, and breathable sporting thicker padding on the back. It seems durable enough and it doesn’t feel like it’s gonna rip apart like some other lower priced harnesses. The equipment handles seem like they’ll hold up so long as I don’t overload them. The buckles for the waist and legs seem good quality so far and haven’t loosened on me while in the tree. It’s easy to adjust which is quite nice compared to my old harness. Overall I like it and would recommend it to anyone looking to get into climbing either recreationally or professionally.That said, I do have my druthers.. Like, the D rings need to be further toward the front of the belt. That way while using my positioning lanyard my hips dont get sore so quick. Also, the webbing from the front of the waist belt to the leg straps could be a little longer. That way one could avoid pinching the ole wobbly bits when the harness inevitably rides up while using the D rings on higher positioning points. Another thing, instead of having just an elastic strap in the back from the waist to the leg pads, use a length of webbing with elastic stitched to it so it can stretch while moving but provide stability while “sitting” or leaning. The waist belt needs a few metal equipment rings on the back and not just the sewn on equipment loops. They work fine but I don’t trust hanging my saw on them out of fear of one ripping and my saw tumbling to the ground.Last thing. I really wish yall would make the option available to include the chest harness with this specific model of harness. It would be nice to be able to switch between SRT and MRT or use a chest ascender or have different tie in points and keep the harness in place all while having the positioning bridge.Ver másVer menos
