ViewsChoosing a HarnessFrom GuidesFor wall climbing & single pitch stuff, most harnesses will be good enough and all should comply with the usual safety standards. Try before you buyDo not buy online as comfort and fit are important. Go to a shop which will let you sit in the harness & dangle from the ceiling. Check how easily you can reach the gear loops and adjust all the necessary buckles. Winter ClimbingSome winter climbers look for detachable leg loops (for getting the harness on/off while wearing crampons) & ice screw racking places, but not all climbers consider these essential. Screws can be racked on an ordinary krab and smaller feet are easy to get through the loops without snagging crampons. In the ForumsSee also: Harness |
