Sequioa is possibly the least comfortable harness i have worn

[Khriss]

I love my sequoia Bill !  But def get a foot ascender, helps take strain off yr soon to be developing shoulders,  basically you will develope yr own style after passing the certification ( of which you only have to climb in a safe manner ) to get a good performance for actual tree work  ( took me 18months)  k

The Stein Vega is a good, reasonably comfy, entry level harness.

You will be a old, experienced climber by the time the kit arrives from Northern Arb Supplies.

 

I would, as others have suggested, try a harness before you buy.

Does that mean I can say I am good, just cos I use a Stein Vega? ?

Yes me too, im climbing in one now, i meant avao. Just got muddled about which is which.

Althought the sequoia isnt amazing for just sitting and hanging in for long periods
