I currently have a Petzl Navaho sit which ive found in my opinion to be quite uncomfortable. It seems as though because the front D ring is mainly coming from the waist strap the pressure from the climbing line isnt evenly distributed between the waist and legs. It may be just me but what harnesses are good for the bigger climbers? Preferably towards the bottom of the price list aswell because im not actually a climber yet im just getting practise in at the moment.

Ta very much :biggrin:

How about a petzl sequoia swing, it has a sliding bridge that take the attachment point away from the waist band. :001_smile: They also do it in two sizes. :thumbup:

I saw that but I didnt notice it was more of a seat harness. That looks like quite a comfortable harness :001_smile: although it looks like it would limit movement in the tree? Specifically limiting the width the climber can move their legs outwards?

I have a Petzl Sequoia (regular, not the swing version). Reaaallly comfy..

 

 

Without sounding cheeky lol what sort of size are you? :001_huh:

Just im a bigger lad so I want a harness that would accept me comfortably :001_smile:

Does anybody know what the advantages (if any) of the SRT version of the petzl are? I can see the difference in the harness but what physical differences would there be?

Weaver. The black and yellow one. Big and a bit cumbersome until you get into the tree. Possibly the best for spiking on a pole. (and i usualy climb on my treemotion)
