Comfortable, Durable, Simple

Best Uses:

Describe Yourself:

Avid Climber

Bottom Line:

Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

entirely comfortable to hang in/Hold your hanging climber, when belaying. Zero restriction, an unnoticeable piece of gear while climbing. Buckle system couldn't be easier to adjust. It is now winter, so I haven't had a chance to climb outdoors with the harness. I don't know how the gear loops will function yet, not worried though. Only complaint; My brother and I bought the harness at the same time and he has had minor discomfort with the center of the harness rubbing against his stomach. I don't climb shirtless, so have no issues. Overview: Wildly comfortable piece of gear. I will never even consider purchasing a harness from another company. My previous Black diamond pales horribly in comparison.

My new harness fits well and gives me good service. My only disappointment is, it does not have a belay loop on the back so I may use it as an anchor when I belay.

wonderfully adjustable

By Jack of all sports, master of none

from Daytona Beach Florida on 5/10/2007

Sizing:

Feels half size too big

Pros:

Comfortable, Simple

Best Uses:

Ice climbing, Long Climbs, mountaineering

Describe Yourself:

Casual/ Recreational

Bottom Line:

Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Fit is very comfortable. If your any less than a 34 waist get size #1. I like the no double back buckles on the waist belt. Very good adjustability to fit. Going to use it to climb Mt baker this summer and then for ice climbing this winter in NH. non rigid gear loops are perfect for mountaineering and don't seem to get in the way of a summit pack. Hard to go wrong with Petzel gear.
