Thanks Janey:biggrin: What do you use? Useful point about sizing. Treeflex makes sense as it looks to be very adjustable and come in various sizes. Thanks for the help so far everyone. Sequoia looks like a good one to try too as the adjustability is still there but with 'settings'. Probably a good thing as she aint big on patience!!

If it's any help I started with this hips dilemma and ended up getting a Petzl Sequoia, I have no problems with it and it's very compact and light :001_smile:

 

Nice harness that :thumbup1:

 

Nice carving as well! :thumbup:

Did use, more like. I haven't climbed for a few years now and I haven't a clue about what's available for the laydee arborist :blushing:

 

I started with a Willans T22 in xs. It was ok but the back support was useless and it didn't accomodate my waist to thigh measurement that well. For reccy tree climbing, I think it would be ok, unless you're secretly training the Mrs to be you subby climber? :sneaky2:

 

I also had a Weaver at one point. I could never get the waist cinched tight enough and although the back support was very good, it was also a little too deep and sometimes got caught under my ribs. Ouch!

How about a little trip with the credit cards to Arb Fair North or even wait until the AA show so she can try a load on?

Could be, she is a busy girl though! AA is more likely or the two, will buy you a drink if we get down... if you teach her how to set it up! I CBA!

Couldnt resist my previous post, sorry mate!

 

Have you thought about a skylotec? They have very comfy leg loops and are comfy for climbing or sitting in..

 

I use a treemotion myself, but not sure what it's like for the ladies..
