Yeah I need a new harness before I Todd Skinner it.

Older style Safe-Tech or new style? The older style was okay, I was actually thinking of getting one because it had nice gear loops. The new style has a crazy doubled up belay loop, which is pretty gumpby. Really? 2 belay loops? I'd be tempted to cut one oft. That's what Todd thought too. Tuphar!

Maybe if you did aid, but you can't be messing with a piece that size trying to free climb. Send it back. Worst case, they say you're fucked. Best case, a repair or free/low cost replacement. Sounds like they are giving me the best case, WOO! bitchen. When you get it, sell it before you use it and buy a useful piece, like a green alien.

Black and blue are ok, but I think other cams might be better in those sizes. They don't have the internal cam springs in the lobes, and so those two are wider than a green alien, a real negative in those tiny sizes. I have them and they work, but I think I'd rather go c3 or even tcu in those tiny sizes.
