They're contoured and lined with breathable foam padding for comfort when suspended. The DOUBLEBACK self - locking buckles at the rear allow for shorter adjustment when using the dorsal attachment point.

Detailed features include an openable gated ventral attachment point for various equipment connections, an ultra - comfortable design with semi - rigid parts and foam shoulder straps, convenient adjustment with self - locking and automatic buckles, and multiple tool - carrying options. It has different attachment points for various uses and comes in colors like black/yellow and black, with sizes ranging from 0 to 2. The waistbelt and leg loops have specific length ranges, and the harness has a 3 - year guarantee.

Using this harness is straightforward. First, put on the harness by adjusting the waistbelt and shoulder straps using the DOUBLEBACK self - locking buckles. Then, fasten the leg loops with the FAST automatic buckles, even if you're wearing gloves. For rope ascents, connect the CROLL ventral rope clamp to the ventral attachment point. You can also attach other equipment like the PROGRESS lanyard or the PODIUM seat as needed. When using the dorsal attachment point, adjust the rear DOUBLEBACK buckles for a shorter fit. Remember, if you have a fall, check the fall indicator on the dorsal attachment point. If the red strap appears, retire the harness. To maintain your harness, keep it clean and dry. Avoid exposing it to harsh chemicals or sharp objects. Regularly check for any signs of wear and tear, especially on the buckles and attachment points. With proper use and maintenance, this harness will serve you well for years.
