I bought the Mountaineer Rescue 1 Harness.It weighs a couple pounds with the rope in it but it works. You can lower your self 30 ft. to the ground if need be. You can test it at home by leaning back from a standing position with the harness tied off and lowering yourself to the ground by pulling the release. Then you just repack
the harness the way their DVD says and you are ready to go again.
Worth the money to me.
