Abstract
A roping sit harness comprises a securing belt joined to a pair of leg loops by an intermediate part. The pair of leg loops and the intermediate part are manufactured from a synthetic fabric stuffed with a padding foam to form a single semi-rigid part. The front part of each leg loop is attached without discontinuity to the joining strap by a triangular distributor joining part arranged to balance the forces applied to said monoblock part. The harness is suitable for many applications such as climbing, mountaineering, caving, pot-holing and/or working at heights.
