I'd go for the Treemotion harness. Expensive? yes, but worth every penny.
If you care for this harness it'll do you good for a lot of years.

No doubt, the treemotion harness is awesome

. However, i have retired mine after less than three months of use due to wear!

newguy18 · 21st January 2008, 06:26 AM

in that case i won't buy it.

The treemotion harness is extremely comfortable aswell as flexible. When I tried it on it just instantly fused with my body shape and alignment (Instant ass groove). The only thing I wish I hada' done was clip a saw to it. My buck traverse is comfy but doesn't even come close to that.

Once I tried it on I instantly wanted to buy one. But after looking at the needs vs wants it was indeed at the very bottom of the wants..

still going with the navaho vario.

Sorry, I should have said that I temporarily retired it. The webbing that has started to wear is only minor at this stage.I am planning on having the webbing replaced.

I havnt tried any of the petzel harnesses, but i do think that the treemotion harness would be very hard to beat for comfort and manouverability. There are a lot of very well designed features and it is very lightweight.

Buckingham classic versatile works good for me. I took two pear shaped beaners and put rollers on them. Then clipped those over the positioning strap. That gives me a sliding D affect with no wear. If I were to order another one I would get shoulder straps. I'm tall and lean and if I put to much weight on my belt, it falls off.
