New balls please

I bought a Tree austria 3 last Saturday after my old willans t22 failed its last loler inspection. Climbed in it once this week and I am still missing my family jewels.

 

I tried a few different options in the shop before getting the austria, ( petzl sequoia, edelrid tree magic 3), and initially this seemed to be the best fit, however after deadwooding a couple of ivy clad sycamores, i can no longer produce any offspring.

 

Tried leg loops loose and tight, but made no difference, so I am looking for a bit of advice on what harnesses are more suitable for a big lad who would like to keep his testicles on the outside of his body?

 

p.s Does anyone want to buy a tree austria 3, used for one very uncomftable afternoon?

When you say 'big lad'.....what do you mean?

 

I'm a big lad.....16 stone 6ft1.......just gone from willans to the sequoia and find it comfy.....

You could always wear it the other way round!?

Have you considered your style of positioning?

Good luck with the solution.

If your used to a sit harness like the Willians you will find this it takes a while to adjust your positioning, especially if your just hanging in a harness like you would a sit one, I know on the other tree austria series a seat board is available on the early models i had to use it a lot in the first 6 months after making the change !I would use that if it's available still as they are probably one of the most comfy harnesses once you adjust to putting more weight through your back instead of your behind as you would in the Willians.

I'm 6ft and 16st I use a skylotec Kolbri found its a good middle ground between a seat harness and harnesses with regular leg loops

[Tony Croft aka hamadryad]

leave the leg loops a bit loose and buy the seat, it will make this harness a dream to sit in.

 

had the same issues till i gotta seat for it.

I tried a treemagic, didnt get on with it at all, and went for a skylotech, which is far superior. And I would say it has made me a better climber. (Most others wouldn't)
