Maximum Durability for Commercial Operations
Your gear can’t be a weak point. The Edelrid IGUAZU harness is built for the intense, repetitive use of a guiding season. Its standout feature is the replaceable abrasion protector harness seat, made from extremely robust, seamless tarpaulin. This shield protects the harness webbing and your wetsuit from abrasive canyon walls and slides. When it eventually wears down, you simply replace the protector, not the entire harness, saving your operation significant cost and extending the life of your equipment.
Unmatched Versatility for Guides
This durable canyoning harness is engineered for guide-level efficiency. It features two distinct tie-in points: one textile and one metal. This innovative setup allows you to intelligently separate your abseiling and self-belaying equipment, keeping your system organized and snag-free during complex maneuvers or rescues. Combined with four large gear loops, two metal points for your rope bag, and dedicated slots for knives, you have a complete system for managing all your canyoning gear for professionals.
Frequently Asked Questions
- What makes the IGUAZU a good canyoning harness for guides?
Its dual tie-in points allow for superior organization of guide-specific gear (descender, lanyards, etc.). Its robust construction, RFID chip, and replaceable seat are designed for the high-volume use of commercial operations. - Is the abrasion protector easy to replace?
Yes, the protector is designed to be easily removed and replaced, allowing you to maintain your harness in peak condition without needing to replace the entire unit. - What is the benefit of the two different tie-in points?
The metal point provides a highly durable connection for descending, while the textile point is ideal for attaching lanyards and self-belaying equipment. This separation prevents gear-crowding and improves safety. - How does the 4-buckle design help?
The 4-buckle system (two on the waist, one on each leg loop) offers a massive range of adjustment. This ensures you can always center the tie-in point and gear loops perfectly, whether you’re wearing a thin rash guard or a thick winter wetsuit. - What is the integrated RFID transponder for?
The RFID transponder allows for easy and digital PPE management. This is crucial for commercial operators and adventure parks needing to track gear inspection, assignment, and retirement schedules.
