Climbing competition harness ?

[Recon]

I noticed from watching some Arbortec videos, the competitors appear to be using full body harnesses with full backups during competition climbs. Is this common for US based competitions ? Or do most just use their standard work saddle ? Arbortec is UK based I think ?

Thanks

maybe it was the speedclimb event where you „free“ climb a tree while bering belayed by another person.

For the ascent event you wear a full body fall arrest harness
