treeMOTION Super Light Harness

[Danavan]

Weight is always an issue with anything that brings me down. The more I can save in any way shape or form is a good thing imo. Not to say I want parts to wear out quicker coz of weight saving ect..Hard line to walk..

[colemanjessenz]

good for pruning and comp climbing.

I imagine that the way they price it will be the big selling point , the tm is one of the more expensive harnesses so maybe this will appeal to people wanting one but are being put off by the price but time will tell TM is the best:thumbup:

I put on my old butterfly for a little light lime pruning a few weeks back as could not be botherd to take all my snazal of the TM, yes it felt lighter buzzing about with nowt but a silky on me but by hell did my back hurt later that day, lesson taken - stick with the best!

On anouther note will the new hevy TM be compatable with a chest rig type thing for a croll now that the back saw ring is classed as ppe so green?

Guessing they'll be going for the Petzl Sequoia market.

If so, they can't price it any higher than £190 inc vat

So what have they sacrificed from the normal motion to come up with the superlight. So far no clips and less padding anything else?

How is the saw ring PPE? It hangs a saw off it. Have they really changed it to green? There is a stitched eye at the top of the back pad for a chest harness already.

The new back ring on the motion upgraded is ppe rated.. manual states that it's for mewp attachment.. aside from the carritool attachment points it's still the only one rated to take saw weight so I'm guessing double purpose now

Hmm not sure why this is being marketed as the super light version, and cannot understand why they went for a buckle and not a clip seems a bad idea.

 

Weight is not really and issue and you shouldn't look at this harness in that way, it also doesn't need the comfort backpad but you could add it if you wanted.

 

It's all about the new material which is lighter and conforms to you body more it will suit some of us but not all. We have a choice wish I could choose quick clips though!

the tm clips are a bit dodgy though! mines come undone in a tree before. its quite easy to clip in and only one side to click, making it sound and feel like both are secure....
