Greg_W Posted January 27, 2003 Share Posted January 27, 2003 rr666 - you might touch base with Mattp. He's talked with Chris at C&S and might have tried one out or at least inspected the workmanship. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

djd Posted January 27, 2003 Share Posted January 27, 2003 I've used harnesses from Chris at C & S Eng; very good stuff and very good people. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobinc Posted January 27, 2003 Share Posted January 27, 2003 A good combo to consider is the Yates Shield with the full strength chest harness. The Shield is also nice for longer free routes and not quite as heavy/bulky as the other wall harness they offer. It seems to work pretty well for hanging/semihanging belays in my limited experience. Plus pricing is pretty good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IceIceBaby Posted January 28, 2003 Share Posted January 28, 2003 (edited) I have used them both the “Bigwall” and the “Shield“ it is all depending on what u looking for a Big Wall only (Bigwall) or also a comfy Trad harness for LOOOOONG routes (the Shield) I ended with the Bigwall (wall couch) and I LOVE this harness BTW if u getting the harness get the bigwall rack too it is a full strength chest harness and U will appreciate it for the suspending jugs and the gear organizing Edited January 28, 2003 by IceIceBaby Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
