| Re: Which do you prefer? I got rid of my Navaho, there was not very much padding in it at all and really not many attachment points for gear, you have to add accessory carabiners. It was alright for quick pruning jobs, but not much else. Petzl did just come out with their new saddle- the Sequoia. One thing that I've noticed is that European saddles tend to have less padding and less rings/ snaps sewn into the saddle, and that's why I'm leaning towards getting the glide. |

| Re: Which do you prefer? In my opinion I think its mostly what you learn on. I used a seat the first 2 times in a tree, then leg straps every time after. When I bought my first saddle I went with the leg straps. Its hard to break old habbits espeacially ones that work. In fact I just bnought my first split tail, I started climbing traditional style and never stopped. Hopefully will have a chance to try it out today. |

The Komet has three big loops, two rings, and space to add a bent gate crab on each hip. The Edelrid has six gear loops, two rings and comes with a crab on the right hip. Padding...yes the Komet could use some more on the hips but the width on both is more than adequate...mind you I'm only 115lbs soaking wet!

I use the petzel williams tri action it is meant for the hp rollers so the bridge fits very nice with the carabiner. i am on my 4th season with it and their is no damage. i am going to try the rollers again using wire to hold them in place.
