Great basic and surprisingly comfortable harness! I have climbed in a BD Bod harness for the past few years and recently "upgraded" to a BD AL Momentum when I needed to retire the old Bod harness for safety. Mine is a little bit different (Bod not Alpine Bod) in that it has a little bit of padding around the waist belt and has a belay loop. Anyway, this harness was everything I needed and nothing I didn't. I'm a bit surprised to report that the first couple uses of my BD AL Momentum has actually been LESS comfortable than the Bod (likely due to less width in leg loops. Anyway, either of these harnesses are great and with important gear that is weight bearing/life-dependant like a harness, the difference in price should be viewed in my opinion as trivial. Get the one that feels right for you. Surprised to see the Seth Morrison review from a few days ago! If he's using it then, hey, how bad can it be! I would have thought they would have had him decked in some super bells and whistles harness at 3-4 times the price of this one. Love your work Seth! Keep it up and be safe!
