        Comments about Black Diamond Momentum SA Climbing Harness:

        I used this harness today climbing outside for my first time. I am new to climbing and therefore don't have much to compare this harness to but I can say without question that it is much more comfortable and lightweight than whatever the gym was renting when I went. Since I'm new, I spent plenty of time falling on it and hanging in it trying to figure out the routes. Very pleased with this purchase and it's very inexpensive.

          Comments about Black Diamond Momentum SA Climbing Harness:

          This harness was rather inexpensive, which is good and bad. Because you get what you pay for. The leg loops are really hard to adjust. The waist belt only adjust on one side so if its too big or too small it will trow the leg loops and gear racks and everything else off center which doesn't really effect much other than how it looks. It is also hard to get on and off, the waist belt has an auto double backer which is nice but it doesn't slide easy so its hard to get on and off.

          Comments about Black Diamond Momentum SA Climbing Harness:

          Im new to the sport but that doesnt mean I cant tell a good product when I see and wear one. I went into REI store with some friends who are seasoned climbers and harness selection is subjective , its what your body likes the best. I tried every harness on in the store and this one was the most comfortable and im clibing 5.10a indoor and its holding up to the abuse so far. When i hung from rei rope in store this harness kept me more upright while the other harnesses had me leaning backward and when you fall or coming down a route I dongt want to be leaning backward forcing me to use my stomach and back muscles to keep me upright.

          The size if im correct was one to large but ill have to double check that. I do not have my harness right now but I believe i got a small instead of medium. Im 5'9 145-150lbs, waist 33-34 but i believe i got the small, which has room to expand a inch or two outward.

          The leg adjustments are easy to move and so far they have stayed in place but i wish they could be tightened like the waist on the harness but thas not really a problem.

          This is a great harness and the price is great. Theres other harnesses twice the price but this one beats them all for me.

          Which harness should you get? Whatever one youll use and fits you best, for me its this one

            Comments about Black Diamond Momentum SA Climbing Harness:

            I use this for outdoor climbing, 4+ days a week. Great harness, simple, and holds up to the daily grind of climbing. The Speed Adjustment feature is completely unnecessary. It would take maybe 2 seconds more to adjust the leg straps with a normal system.

            This harness isn't very comfortable. If you feel that you will be spending a lot of time "taking" or sitting up on the wall, then this isn't for you.

              Hi. I'm a 15 year old climber.

              Using this harness has not been pleasant. I have been climbing for about 3 years now. My third fall on this harness wasn't pleasant, most falls aren't. But I have had harness's that hold when I fall. This harness isn't the best for first time climbers.

                      I'm new to climbing and have been hitting the indoor gym 2-3 times a week since the summer. This harness replaced my Mammut Togir Light that I had started on. Really just wanted something a little more 'sturdy' feeling and comfortable. The Togir would give me a hell of a wedgie and is so thin I'd start thinking about it if I were high up. Not totally knocking the Togir, I had no safety problems with it, but it really is a 'light' harness. A little too light for me.

                      The Momentum is well built, quite comfortable and has all the normal features you would expect. Unlike the other reviewer it fits my legs quite nicely, and the overall fit is great. Definitely subjective though. I have a 33" waist, and I went for the large since I have extra room for tightening when wearing more layers.
