Austria Duo tree harness 3

[Alex Talbot]

Does anyone have any comments on the new Austria Duo 3?

I have always used the Austria Duo mark 1.

How does it perform as an everyday working harness?

To be honest they dont feel a lot different apart from when you put them on you have to put your feet through the leg hoops, unlike the 1 where you just just step into it.

 

Bit rubbish if you are working in a doggy do area

I used to climb in the Austria 1 and sure the leg loops were step through? Very annoying it was!

It is the best harness on the market, i wont have anything else.

 

i spend my life in a harness, or a very large portion of it, this ones like a glove.

Hi Dean I am sure the Austria II and III both have the quick release leg loops and waist belt, you still need to climb in past the bridge but once on you just clip up the waist belt and leg loops. Always a faff to constantly do up the old ones each time you use it but with the II and III once set you shouldn't need to touch them again unless you are really cold and putitng on loads of layers
