They have never had one!

I have the srt sequoia and find the waist buckles undo through the day which is helpful.

Have tried the simantghu and it felt great but as you say a little bulky.
What about the old school butterfly jobbies?

I know you dismissed these Mark...

 

 

....but I think it is time you properly reconsidered them.

 

Consider the benifits...

 

1 More money left over for beer (other vices are available)... this will ease the crippling pain at the end of each day.

 

2 You could post a review  in the review section (good for the forum... put something back and all that)

 

3 I don't think the leg adjustment will let you down ( well not before any other aspects of the harness anyway.

 

4 You get (as in will need to get) a new harness again in at least 6 months, so you save money on LOLER*

 

*Unless you take a nasty fall in it beforehand.**

 

**if you do get one, it wasn't my idea.

Oh, just noticed their spelling of industrial.

 

Now that is worrying.

[Bolt]

As an aside, is there a reason why you moved on from the komet harnesses  (other than them being 4 times more expensive than the little bundle of fun above).

 

I think I still have a 1st gen Butterfly kicking about somewhere, but I stopped using it when I went over to the testicular peril of the Avao (l like to live dangerously ).

I've had a tree core for the last two years i think. Bought it after reading Adams recommendation and thought I'd try it as it was time to replace my sequoia.

 

Been a good harness but the main thing i don't like it there are no clip buckles on the waist like the legs and it's a pitter putting on and off readjusting. Apart from that a nice harness with good quick adjustment of the bridge to take the strain of the legs. 

 

It's a good harness but I will be either going back to a sequoia or watching this thread closely.

At the last show I was at I thought the Ergolite looked pretty good....i think rich rule had one maybe?

That's a very good point Jim, I missed that, and aye, I would find it annoying.

Bolt I had 2 Komets, good harnesses but the self-adjusting during climbs made me change.

Lot of harnesses out there.... seems a shame to try the same type twice.

 

 

 

Remember occasionally to think back to wearing a T22 though, then any harness will feel like opulence.

Just anoth€r option.
