Tree Austria 3 and 3.1 differences

[treeweaver]

I am close to buying a new harness and am leaning towards the TA3. Anyone know what the difference is with the new one. Short of the ring and some colours it looks the same to me.

Don't know anything about the TA harness but I love that avatar.

the ta3 rocks although like any other saddle including the tm it could use a little work

the 3.1 has clevises instead of rings, making the bridge much more easily replacable.

That was the difference I couldn't spot. Well done.
Glad you like the pic Blinky. Paul Stuffel who also posts here, took it on a big cedar elm climb. It was a fun day.

I bought the tree austria 3 a few months ago. I'm very satisfied with it. Very simple design, kind of a bare bones saddle but you can tell they're built to last. Two thumbs up!

Did you have any issues with the size of the backpad? It seems wider than other saddles I've used in the past...

The one time I climbed in my friends TA III, I loved it. My boss actually has the prototype and it was one of the first saddles I ever climbed in. I am very impressed with this saddle and can't wait for the 3.1 to come out. I have always felt that the downside of this saddle was the lack of a replaceable bridge.

Anyone know when the 3.1 comes out?
