Rope Saddle

TylerHoffman · Sep 20, 2015

Rope is coreless 16 strand.
Color coded to show the 3 main parts.
Most comfortable setup yet.
Fig 8 for connection point around waist and leg pad lengths

Looks good Tyler. Complete DYI or did you find premade waists and legs?

TylerHoffman · Sep 20, 2015

Yeah the waist and leg pads are from an old buckingham empire saddle. My first one was all dyi but the leg pads weren't firm enough and waist belt really dug into my ribs

Wow! There is some innovation.
I started a thread"Show us your harness"on climbers talk. I would love to see your working saddle please. I bet you have one hell of a set up! I was hoping to see it while the thread was moving. I belive it is one page back.
Thank you
One more thing.... When is a new hitch climbers guide to the canopy coming out?

This looks like the same place that Matt Cornell started when he designed his rope harness.

That's awesome. How much does it weigh?

TylerHoffman · Sep 20, 2015

I will try to remember to get a photo of my treemotion at work. I'll have to weigh it but it is very light, lighter than my old sequoia

I like the integration of the figure 8. Just need some suspenders to with it.

I'd love to purchase a version of MCRS that your happy to let go of. The more nrefined the better! You'd just be inspiring my progressing your/the design!
