robust harness

[Alex bedie]

Hi I am looking for a new harness I use a skyletec at the moment but was disappointed by it, I felt it wasn't very robust and the bridge and other straps loosen up during the day can anyone recommend something robust and simple?

I too used to use the Skylotec harness and hed exactly the same problems , there was meant to be a new version coming out some in late 2009 but it didnt , again in 2010 it was meant to be released but it didnt and this year at the AA arb show i was told that it will not be brought out which is a shame as it was goignt to be a much much better harness . Anyway cutting a long story short i have now got a Tree Motion and highly reccomend it , it first i didnt think i was going to find another harness that was as comfortable my skylotec but i have and not would not go back . Yes it may be more expensive but well well worth it .

 

And i must say thanks to justin at F.R Jones for his help and advice . top notch

Excellent thanks I was tempted by a weaver I know there old fashion but they look pritty solid I was put off by the tree motion because of its price but I know a lot of people who own it and have never heard a bad review they seem to be the harness to get.

I was prety unsure about geting one , especially at 6ft2 and weighing 17.5 stone , i thought that it would not have the suppore and comfort of my skylotec but after adjusting it and constant tweeking for the first couple months i can now honestly say that i will not be using anything elts .

weavers are great,they may not look fancy but they last for ever

If you can afford to chip out for a tree motion they are worth it I think, They take a while to get used to and set up right but once you do its great, I love mine and its worth the money I spent on it

Treemagic, very simple, "does what it says on the tin" harness. Love mine, never had a problem with it. I have tried the tree motion a few times and don't see what all the fuss is about to be honest.

as above, treemagic 2. works, is simple, and lots of options for gear attachment.

Treemotion is good but it's not robust, it has the shortest shelf life for a harness if you read the specs.

Saying that had mine for two years and it's serviceable still but has a few tears in some gear loops.
