“Only problem I had is that I was Missing hardware to assemble my Spurs. Other than that everything was ok”
Rated: OK Review by: Chris
“This is an ok set to get you started. I am a new climber and put around 20 hours up in the trees in about 10 days. I would recommend trading the tree gaffs for more rope, figure 8, and carabiners. The harness is ok. It will get you in the tree to get the job done. The double lock carabiners are nice but offer a challenge when in a tree wearing gloves. I would recommend this to someone who wants to trim a few trees occasionally. If you plan on spending some time in the trees, get the upgraded harness kit. Your body will thank you. ”

“I got this set off Amazon.com and it has been awesome the only thing I have bought to add to it has been a rope bag and double eye split tail I love this set and will keep adding to it as my skills increase. Thank's WesSpur for making such a product as this one for the entry level arborist or recreational tree climber. ”
The perfect kit for professionals who spend a lot of time in the canopy and in spurs, with great harness options and top-quality gear.
The Deluxe kit offers three different high-performance saddle options. The Viking is a great all-around workhorse; it’s uncluttered, well-padded, with a replaceable ‘Warp Speed’ rope-bridge. The Spartan is modeled after the Buckingham Ergovation, and is a heavy-duty, super comfortable saddle that provides support for spurring while also relieving pressure on the hips and lower-back. The Petzl Sequoia is lightweight, sleek, and low-profile, with a sewn rope bridge and quick-snaps on legs and belt. Includes gear bag, rope bag, and throw line cube to easily store and deploy your gear.
