Black Diamond Big Gun Harness

Black Diamond created the Big Gun Harness to give you every comfort and convenience when you start up a 20+ pitch big wall climb. This harness includes seven gear loops to hold a massive aid rack, and two belay loops to help organize the tangle of ropes and daisy chains when you're leading. Black Diamond also loaded the Big Gun Harness with enough padding to keep you comfortable at a multi-hour hanging belay while your partner does battle above you.

Bottom Line: Gear up for the big rigs, and start with the Black Diamond Big Gun Harness.

Comfortable hanging belays, holds a full rack and draws, not bulky or restricting

By:

Climbed Calaveras Dome for four days in rain and shine, the Big Gun held to its name and allowed me to carry a full rack comfortably through all 12 pitches to the top.

It is a beefy and heavy harness. Matters what your up to josh. If I was setting routes it would be so comfy but probably an overkill for gym.

Yes, but it's intended for big walls and aiding, where you're sitting in your harness for days on end and flexibility isn't really an issue. If you want flexibility AND comfort, get the Chaos. Best harness I've ever worn.

Quality Harness for the $$

By: Backcountry.com Employee

I have used the harness on a few walls and it has worked really well. The gear loop on the rear on the harness is nice because it is so large. I wish the other gear loops were a little bit larger. Its does well for hanging belays but is not too bulky for free climbing. Well constructed and thought out----usually quality from Black Diamond. Also comes with a removable hammer holster for the nail ups.

Awesome Harness

By:
May 5, 2008

Im on a search and rescue team and i spend a lot of time just sitting in the harness. Its very comfortable and a great deal for the money. Its got plenty of gear loops and its great for all seasons with adjustable leg loops so you can wear it over snow pants or shorts on a hot summer day.

Great Harness

By:
January 8, 2009

Ok, so after a week of hard climbing out at J-Tree, I have come to the conclusion that this harness officially kicks ass. The added gear loops are awesome for organizing your pieces for leading, the wider legs and waist straps make hanging around so much more comfortable, and its durable. After taking a couple of good whippers and running along the side of the rock face, all that happened were some scrapes on the paint of the buckles. I really like the two belay loops as well, makes climbing up with a rope in tow a whole lot less complicated matter. Overall, I love this harness!

I think so far I have done something like 5 or 6 climbs in this harness over one weekend with several multi-pitch. Some trad, some sport. All in all, great harness. Nice and lightweight and fits well. The gear loops are good but loading it down with my whole trad rack was a little confusing though mostly likely due to me, not the harness. The big loop in the back is a great deal but does tend to lure you into bring a ton of extra stuff because you can stash it back there. Does potentially make it hard to get to your chalk bag. I like the idea of combing this with a lightly loaded chest harness, just a few pieces.

Over all, four stars.
