    As a female climber and also a physicist I do really really really love your videos! And today I would like to tell you my experience buying harnesses and if you get to read this, or anyone else in the community, I would like to know you opinion and if you know about similar situations.
    It was VERY VERY VERY difficult for me to find a harness, even among the lady designs and yet I am not fully satisfied. As you explain in the video, female versions have smaller waist loop and bigger leg loops, however, they do not match very well from my experience.
    It happens that my sizes are 61cm on the wais perimeter and 56cm on the legs perimeter, which I don't think are so weird sizes, and most of the harnesses starts from 65cm or 70cm in the waist loop, including small sizes of women harnesses (Petzl, Mammut, Black Diamond...) !! However, there are a few brands in which the XS size might start in 60cm (Camp), but the leg loops are just too small for me, making my nightmare continue.
    At the end I bought a lady harness from Ocun that had a wide range for adjustability in both loops and I thought I was happy until it arrived to my place and surprise surprise.... THE ELASTICS YOU TOLD ABOUT IN THIS VIDEO WERE JUST TOO SHORT!! I also wondered why they were there until I had this experience and I understood.
    As you said, we women wear the waist loop a little bit higher than men due to our anatomy, therefore these elastics should also be longer as the distance between both loops is greater, but in this case they were not! And I do not want to tell here what part of my female anatomy gets too much pressure when hanging on the harness... if you know what I mean.
    Thanks for the videos again!!

      My girlfriend had a similar problem, and ended up buying a black diamond harness that had two buckles on the waist band (one each side of the belay loop). This gave more adjustment for her small waist. She hasn't mentioned any issues with the elastics and seems pretty happy with it.

    • @leyizhang983
      @leyizhang983 2 года назад +2

      You are absolutely right! my perimeters are around 5cm more than yours on both my waist and legs, so I could fit into standardized harnesses, but only if I adjust my waist loop at the tightest and leg loops at the loosest.

      I found out today that my harness hasn't been safe to climb with for... well, years. I already knew somewhat, but buying a new one is psychological torture. My leg/hip ratio seems to be baffling for harness creators as well, while my sollution would be to make the leg straps adjustable.

    I am a real nube to this and have near to no climbing experience but maybe a new passion: in the woods newly discovered that my husband and I love climbing trees. Your videos help getting an overview on how to do that safely. Thanks! As a medical practitioner I do feel it's important to state: the leg loops must be kept as loose as you said because when you hang after falling, and they are too tight, dangerous things can happen: your blood-circulation can be compromised, blood rushes to your legs and doesn't get back to your heart and head which can make you lose consciousness and in very extrem causes even lead to death. The legs can also be cut-off from blood circulation. This can cause long-term damage. Also a sudden re-circulation after a long cut-off can cause a heart- malfunction by the sudden gush of blood. These things can happen within 20 Minutes. Don't want to scare you off, but as far as we learned in med-school: keeping leg-loopes "loose-ish" is not just for more leg-movement... ❤

Your videos have been wonderfully informative. I like how you explain why you do things a certain way, what happens if you don't do things the correct way and options to keep safe. My kids just love climbing and being informed will help me keep them safe. Thanks for your wonderful videos!

      Thanks! And... I suck at Highlinening :D So would not be the best person to listen for advices :D And yes I don't think that there are Harnesses specifically designed for Highlinening... it's to small for manufacturers... So you have to pick what suits your needs out of what exists for other sports...
      But as falls go, the only difference I see that in Highlines you take way more inverted falls compared to sport climbing falls. So I would not go with super skinny waist loop, that might not be the most comfy.

  • @carolinap1233

    I think you should add the importance of checking that the buckle of the harness are properly locked (strap goes one way and then back ). I have witness some near misses for people not knowing this and harness opening for not locking them properly.

  • @GItoKeG

    I wear a female Edelrid harness. It's neon green, yellow, and a bright blue, which I actually like the color. I had a men's Edelrid and it was not comfortable enough. I sat in my harness while I was watching a friend set up an anchor and clean just to make sure he was okay. I saw up there for at least 20 minutes it felt like. It was very uncomfortable. One day one of our friends at the gym walked out with this female version, bright colors and all. He's sponsored so sometimes he just gets products sent to him and I've never seen that specific one at any of the stores I shopped at for gear.
    I asked him, "Bro where did you get that harness?"
    "We have it here now, it's a female harness"
    I walked towards the back to go find it, "I'm getting it". Bought it and never regretted it.
    Knowing that the female harnesses do have bigger leg straps as I'm bulkier guy compared to the average climber. Bigger hamstrings and quads. It's probably the most comfortable harness I've owned so far. If it's comfortable wear it. Obviously this goes with climbing shoes too as I've seen guys wear ladies shoes and some ladies where guys shoes (because they're usually wider).
    Since my "old" harness was still very new (about a month or so), I gave it to one of our other climbing friends. He's had his harness since he started climbing (older gentleman). I said we had talked about him getting a new harness, so now he can have my old one and not have to buy a new one.

    Tremendous fan of the Mammut Sender in the emergency orange, only major qualm is the elastic tensioner for the leg loops adjusts too easily due to the quick adjust slide. Had to trim this all off and sew the elastic to itself to maintain the desired tension.
    Also, wish there was a version with strictly the nylon gear loops instead of the larger coated ones. The nylon loops are much lower profile, which when I am projecting I would far rather.

  • @joshuawiedmann3870
    @joshuawiedmann3870 2 месяца назад +1

    In terms of fit, I recommend tightening the waist and legs straps as tight as possible. The last thing you want is to fall out of your harness. I also wear my skydiving rig the same way. The tighter, the closer fit, the less movement the harness will have around your body. If doing your EP's, your handles shouldn't move. Also, when deploying, you don't want unintended canopy input due to loose leg straps.

    The leg loop straps were a mystery to me until one day I was climbing on a rental harness and it didn't have them. The leg loops kept falling down behind my knees and you can't move your legs properly when your leg loops are caught on your knees... Lesson learned.

    And just a small detail, you mainly talked about "ultralight" harnesses for sport climbing. It's a bit pity that you didn't cover other types of harnesses, such as those for climbing, full body, ski alpinism or big wall. It would be interesting for me, and I hope for the others too, but I understand that the video can take hours.

      Thank You! Chest harnesses are almost never used in Sport Climbing.

    • @PelleksBamari
      @PelleksBamari 3 года назад +10

      Chest harnesses are used in a few cases. For example in alpine climbing, if the climbers need to take a heavy backpack. In this case their center of gravity moves up so that with the sport climbing harness alone they tend to flick back. A chest harness prevents this. Another case is for very young children, like below 7 years.

      When carrying a backpack your center of mass is shifted to almost above the belly button. You inevitably tip backwards when sitting in your harness and falling with such a heavy mass you hurt your back pretty badly. A chest harness solves these problems.
      Basically they are safer when carrying a backpack and overall more conveniet

What´s the problem with you tying yourself to the harnes with a carabiner if you do it in the belay loop (so it won´t load in a triaxial way) and you do it with a belay carabiner which would avoid cross load. I´ve seen you tie yourself with 2 carabiners with the gates facing away of each other and I understand it would be something similar. It would not be to use it in sport climbing, but in small first or second grade step ups allong a mountaineering route for an extra safety but trying to save time as it would be a repeated process. I apologize for the huge text but it´s something I have not found discused in youtube.

    I knew about the elastic straps being adjustable, but is that really why they are detachable?

    I’m going soon to get another harness. My current one is rough to say the least 😂

    On my harness the load-bearing straps wore down quickest. Around the buckles they got really furry which made me retire the harness. Also the leg loops suffered from a lot of abrasion because of walking around in the harness.

    I think another different is the certification. The Black Diamond ones are not UIAA or EN certified

    In what way is a rock climbing harness better than a construction/tree harness? The only things I see different is that the belay loop that connects the waist loop to the leg loops while the fall protection harness have a metal ring on the waist loop only.

    Hi there! On a new harness I have wrapped paracord lines around belaying loop and the tie-in points, in order to prevent chaffing. I'm going to use this harness only on Via Ferrata. Bad/ good ideea?

    Not really a climber but worked at a rock wall belaying people almost 2 decades ago. I do however use my climbing gear for going up mast of sailboats.. the methods that are common in the sailing world are not as safe as my climbing gear I feel.

    Any chance you could do a video on suspension trauma, I had someone with considerable experience tell me that sitting for more than 7 minutes in a harness is bad for you. What are the best ways to avoid trauma if you are in a situation where you have to stay suspended for an extended period of time?
