    I'm considering a TreeFlex

    I did a 20 minute review of the TreeFlex features. http://www.howcast.com/videos/20244-Review-Of-the-TreeFlex-Arborist-Harness <object width="432" height="357" classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" id="howcastplayer"><param name="movie"...

    I'm considering a TreeFlex

    I just might have to take you up on that offer. Besides, it is $100 (50 pounds) cheaper if I buy it from the UK. love nick

    I'm considering a TreeFlex

    Matt, the central TIP was of slight interest to me. I was mostly interested in the differing fit style of the TF. I guess it's just me looking for that holy grail of a harness that is comfortable! I can put spenders on any harness, I think. It's just a matter of sewing in some webbing loops...

    I'm considering a TreeFlex

    Hmm...i wonder what the advantages are to having them flop. It bothers me for sure. Actually, my left one flops, since the lanyard is always connected there anyways. But I have to have the right one non-floppy! love nick

    I'm considering a TreeFlex

    Yeah, I just climbed in my butterfly II today after not having climbed in it for many months. I was noticing how the bungee kept pulling the pad up and down and up and down. I never noticed that feeling with the straight webbing. As soon as I get my harness, I'll sew on the velcro. I'll...

    I'm considering a TreeFlex

    Frans, after a while in the Master II, I found a way to lock down the side D. Once I get the TF, I'll have a look at it and see how I might go about locking it down. NO FLOPPY DEES!!! love nick

    I ordered it, but it won't be here for maybe 2-3 weeks. love nick

    I'm considering a TreeFlex

    Dammit!!! I just called and Doug at Bailey's said they are backed up until June 6th! I'm thinking for the price of sales tax I could just about order one straight from Europe! Willie, you might be on to something here. I thought about shipping it to Las Vegas, going and picking it up there...

    I'm considering a TreeFlex

    I have placed my order for the TreeFlex!! Living in CA, where Bailey's also is, meant I had to pay $35 in sales tax! Final price came to almost exactly $500. I'll hang in it for a while. If I think this'll make my hips stop hurting, then it's a keeper. Otherwise, $500 is too much to spend...

    Burnham, why think on it? Act on it! What is your pants size? You can try my harness out if you'd like. I'd be glad to send it to you for a few weeks/months if you'd like. love nick

    I'm considering a TreeFlex

    Frans, looking at the TreeFlex, I'm thinking to put the velcro in the front since there is a lot of open space there. Here's a pic I posted previously: I think it'll be a little funky, but way better than dealing with those straps flopping or adjusting when I don't want them do. Since they...

    I'm considering a TreeFlex

    Frans, also FWIW, you mentioned in one of your earlier posts that you had the straps loosen up on you when they got knocked by a branch or something of the sort. My master2 used to always loosen up over the day...until I put velcro on it. I NEVER had that problem afterward. Maybe this will...

    I'm considering a TreeFlex

    Frans, what elastic are you talking about? Are the dee rings held firm by elastic? Are the straps that hold the back of the leg strap up made of elastic? My Master2 had elastic on the leg straps. It got tattered and worn out after about a year. I cut it off and sewed on some simple 1" flat...

    I'm considering a TreeFlex

    I don't like straps flopping around. On my master2 I put velcro on the straps and after tightening it down, I velcro them behind me. It works very smooth. This one I think I would velcro it down in the front. I'm gonna order one as soon as Laz replies to my sizing post over at the buzz...

    I'm considering a TreeFlex

    OTG- I got to hang in both versions of the Seq at Bishop's a couple weeks ago. I didn't like either. I liked the light weight and I LOVED the vented back pad, but it just felt loosey-goosey up front to me. Maybe I should order both and hang in them both for a while? Burnham- I've been...

    I'm considering a TreeFlex

    I've looked very closely at the website. I didn't take into account that the nubby foam would be more breathable. I just saw some sort of plastic lining on the back of the back pad (on the outside) and just thought- well, there goes any chance for breathability. Maybe the space between each...
