Just got myself a new harness, although I really do like the sequoia it has crushed my jewels a fair few times today. I have altered the straps etc and think the problem is within the bridge? Anyone else had any ideas or this problem? If you have any pics please put them up

Hi I have used one for a year now without many problems. I have the waist as tight as possible, but I have the leg loops fairly loose with the elastic adjuster at the rear quite loose as well

 

Hope this helps

Nothing to do with the harness and all about Jewel size.

My Tree Motion crushes mine every 10 seconds, even when I'm drinking tea!

 

Seriously though, when I moved from a seat to leg-loop harness I found that keeping my legs in the right position was most important. Still get flattened plums occasionally but only when in a hurry.

You're spot on. A shorter bridge will solve this

Yh, it gets me as well, great Harness mind. Not to comfy if you have big saws hanging of it compared to other harnesses.

 

There are 3 settings on how you want the bridge to be positioned, have you tried playing with these? wont help your problem but you can also put another bridge in there if you feel the need.

 

New sequoia coming out soon I believe, looking forward to it!

Haha old mill, that's the problem I have just come from a seat harness so just adapting I think. Had a mess around today does seen a little better. How could I make a shorter bridge for it?

I think you can buy different length bridges. Not sure what the stock length is. If Petzl don't do different sizes then you could always use a komet butterfly bridge.
