Why choose Speleo and Canyon Harnesses? Key technical parameters

- drop: Effective drop distance between belt and rear attachment point, impacting maneuverability and load distribution during long rappels.
- stack: Load distribution between belt and straps to keep the spine stable and reduce fatigue during kilometers of training on mixed terrain.
- shock absorption: Capacity to absorb impacts at attachments and straps, key to dampen load spikes during dynamic descents.
- waterproofing: Treatment and seams that prevent water absorption on wet sections, mitigating extra weight and material stiffness.
- grammage: Density of the tapes and main fabric that determines durability against abrasion and repeated tensions.
