1 Full Structural Tower Rescue-style Harness (RTR/Yates #390 or #385, PETZL Navajo® BOD Croll Fast
(IF you are using the harness for structural or tower work). Also,Discussion: There are so many differing harnesses out there to choose from for rope access
work but very few really work extremely well for rope access applications. For this reason, we
strongly recommend that you choose a rope access harness for this workshop which will
function in the manner desired for optimal learning. Your harness should have not only the
conventional D rings in the front, but also a sternal D ring attachment point, and two side D
rings for positioning on the towers
since you will be climbing on rope during the program, we ask that you bring a harness that
can accept the PETZL chest Croll ascender listed below. Harnesses that work well with the
Croll is the #390 Ropes That Rescue/YATES “Tower Access”, the YATES #387 (trimmed
down version of the 390) or the PETZL Navajo® Bod Croll Fast. These rope access harness
is used by structural rope access technicians around the world. Other harnesses may get by
for the program, but we know that you will spend a lot of time rigging up something less than
desirable.
