Petzl Voltige Chest Harness
Best secure upper body support for demanding vertical activities.
This chest harness is the essential insurance policy for staying upright while hanging or rappelling. It adds a layer of stability that a standard sit harness simply can't provide on its own. While it introduces another piece of gear to manage, the added security and comfort during long hangs are well worth the extra step.
