looking to buy a new tribe saddle... suggestions?

[RexMan]

I'm looking into buying a new tribe saddle just to get an experience of them. Just wondering if anyone had any suggestions on a good work/rec harness that they offer. I climb in a petzl sequoia now, I like the light weight and simplicity of it. Thanks in advanced!

Also... your thoughts in the "soft" side D's

I own the Tengu and Nikosi and I have climbed on the new Onyx. My guess is that the Onyx will be closest to the Petzl in terms of how it performs. Nikosi is my personal favorite. The Tengu and Nikosi are much better than the Onyx in terms of comfort. I really like the soft d's on the Tengu. They always seem to be in the same place when clipping into them blind. Buying saddles is always such a personal choice but NT definitely makes a high quality saddle that will most likely be the most comfortable saddle you have ever worn.

Have you seen this vid by Nick Araya? reviewing the Onyx?

I use a Kolibri, have done for a few years now, it's a great harness, but the Onyx is the first harness I've seen in a long time that I would like to try out.

Also think the Nikosi 'Low Rise' looks like a great harness as well -
