 Cred: 40569 | | Review by marks on Mar. 31, 2007 | | Though this is designed for mouintaineering the wide range of waist sizes it will adapt to, makes it an ideal second harness (for friends). I do not recommend this as your primary harness though it is extremely light and won't snag on the rock (i.e. while chimney climbing). |

| No padding, and no belay loop. |

| not very comfortable to sport climb in. falling in this harness makes for a very uncomfortable situation. |

 Cred: 434 | | Great mountaineering, canyoneering, and extra harness. Lightweight, dries fast, and the price can't be beat. |
| Not enough padding for an all around harness but it's not designed to be. |
|
 Cred: 4460 | | Great for alpine touring and alpine routs, light, easy on with crampons. We got one of each size for students to use but have gotten alot of use touring. |
| crotch is not the most comfortable |

| | Review by Facebook User on Nov. 08, 2010 | | Great harness for the price. Love having the clasps on the leg loops... makes it easy to take on and off. |
| Not having a belay loop means you'll need to use a 'biner for belaying. |

| Petzl makes the same thing WITH a belay loop, it came out 1 year after the BOD |
|
 Cred: 9 | | Light weight harness... easily compacted into a pack. Real simple easy to use harness that's great for sport climbing as well as roping up for a big alpine route. |
| Doesn't have a traditional belay loop which takes some getting used to if you're a climber at the crag and not an alpine climber. |
