Ive only ever had Butterfiy harnesses, you just have to get into the habbit of popping your balls back into your sack once down from the tree

Get a seat for it (which as far as I know effectively turns it into a dragonfly) which you should of bought in the first place

 

Have the leg straps quite tight to stop them riding up too much

Treemotion is the way forward

i used mu olds mans butterfly found out it was not really comfortable so brought a EKN brillant harness so comfortable i no this do help but though i would share

[john p]

think i might just stick with weaver,or am i just too stuck in my ways?does a super dooper tree magic/monkey/dragon whatever harness make much difference to speed/comfort?

Iv had a butterfly for 3 years and i have to say............I AM SICK TO DEATH OF IT! glad i got that off my chest:lol: it crushes your balls, it twist on you and then the side d's dig in to your hips. if you do a proper days climbing on it your hips will suffer. mine are red raw at the mo. rant over im getting a new one next month:thumbup1:

Ive had butterfly and dragonfly and im not too keen on the butterfly for the same reason, my balls spent more time in my stomach than in my ball bag. But you do learn to adjust your style a bit to manage. Try to lean back a bit more and keep your knees higher if that makes sense. The seat is a lot better than leg loops IMO

Dragonfly is universally more popular. TM seems to be even more popular.
