A treemotion harness is not for beginners.It is very very good but also very precise equipment and therefore it's not foolproof. If I had to buy harnesses for beginners, I'd look at something with wide and thick belts and buckles. The kind you can't sever with just 2 cm of sawteeth on a handsaw. The treemotion has a 9 mm static line as a main anchorpoint. very easy to saw through.
