3. Petzl Corax
With the exception of boulderers, everyone who climbs vertically has appreciated the comfortable fit of this all-round talent for years. The features of the adjustable Corax climbing harness from Petzl are suitable for all areas of use, whether it's via ferrata, mountaineering, alpine and sport climbing, ice climbing or geocaching. The two double-back buckles guarantee a perfect fit and wearing comfort, which not only prevent incorrect operation but also allow the rope loop to be perfectly centred. Four gear loops and holders for additional gear carabiners provide sufficient space for equipment, even on multi-pitch routes. The frame construction of the harness, in which the thick foam layer is surrounded by a central reinforcement made of high-strength webbing, not only ensures a long service life for the Corax, but above all a very good load distribution from the foam to the webbing. This increases the comfort of the alpine harness and makes it easier to hang during breaks, at belays and on long abseils. Attention: The detailed illustrations 2-4 are in different colours.
