&nbsp;a traditional harness (shoulder straps to the rear lumbar plate) and an &#8216;H&#8217; style harness (shoulder straps routed to front of harness via &#8216;T&#8217; attachments). &nbsp;Both harnesses are lightweight and minimalist; providing all the functionality that you&#8217;d need with zero superfluous clutter. &nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Many other types of sidemount wing could be attached to this harness. The harness is supplied with 6ft of 5\/16th bungee and two bolt-snaps, so the diver can rig out their own tank bungee method (loop, sliding loop, independent, &#8216;old school&#8217; etc). Both harnesses include fixed front D-rings and offset (drop) D-rings at the read.<\/p>\n<p>The rear crotch strap D-ring is a dual\/double ring design; giving more options for equipment attachment. There is no <a href=\"https:\/\/scubatechphilippines.com\/scuba_blog\/scuba-diving-weighting-guide\/\">weighting<\/a> system included with the harness. &nbsp;My solution for weighting, on &#8216;bare&#8217; harnesses like these, has always been to put a couple of stand-alone weight pouches directly onto the spine webbing. &nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>It works great and keeps things very simple. These would be an extra purchase&#8230; &nbsp;or you could just thread weights directly onto &nbsp;the spine strap for a more permanent option (less ideal for travelling). The regular harness costs $145.99 and the &#8216;H&#8217; style harness is $163.99&#8230;.. &nbsp;very cheap compared to most on the market.<\/p>\n<div>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Buoyancy: &nbsp;<\/strong>Not applicable &#8211; harness only<\/li>\n<li><strong>Material:&nbsp;<\/strong>&nbsp;Nylon webbing and stainless steel fittings.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Weight: &nbsp;<\/strong>Not Known<\/li>\n<li><strong>Manual:&nbsp;<\/strong>Not Available<\/li>\n<li><strong>Manufacturers Link: &nbsp;Deco Dive Equipment<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div>&nbsp;<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: left;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Darkside-Harness\"><\/span>Darkside Harness<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" title=\"Darkside sidemount harness\" src=\"https:\/\/scubatechphilippines.com\/scuba_blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/Darkside-harness-214x300.jpg\" alt=\"Darkside sidemount harness\" width=\"214\" height=\"300\"\/><\/p>\n<p>The Darkside harness is manufactured in the UK and consists of a hogarthian webbing rig with lumbar and shoulder plates. &nbsp;It has regular sized D-rings and crotch strap.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Buoyancy: &nbsp;<\/strong>Not applicable &#8211; harness only<\/li>\n<li><strong>Material: &nbsp; &nbsp;<\/strong>Nylon webbing \/&nbsp;316 marine grade stainless steel plates<\/li>\n<li><strong>Weight: &nbsp;<\/strong>1.4kg shipping weight<\/li>\n<li><strong>Manual:&nbsp;<\/strong>Not available<\/li>\n<li><strong>Manufacturers Link: &nbsp;<\/strong>darkside-diving.co.uk<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div class=\"scuba-b4-h2-2\" style=\"margin-top: 10px;margin-bottom: 10px;\" id=\"scuba-169633393\"><div class=\"scuba-adlabel\">Sponsored Link<\/div><script async src=\"\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-9354033900485448\" crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script><ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display:block;\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-9354033900485448\" \ndata-ad-slot=\"2393012471\" \ndata-ad-format=\"auto\" data-full-width-responsive=\"false\"><\/ins>\n<script> \n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); \n<\/script>\n<\/div><h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Farr-Explorer-1-Harness\"><\/span>Farr Explorer 1 Harness<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" title=\"Farr Explorer Harness\" src=\"https:\/\/scubatechphilippines.com\/scuba_blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/Farr-Explorer-Harness-270x300.jpg\" alt=\"Farr Explorer Harness\" width=\"270\" height=\"300\"\/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Designed by renown cave explorer Martyn Farr, the &#8216;Explorer 1&#8217; is a seriously robust harness designed for exploratory cave diving.
