Abstract

The roping harness comprises a belt and leg loops. The belt is formed by a first strip and a second strip separated so as to define a housing cavity housing at least one foam comfort pad. The first strip is an inner strip designed to come into contact with the user'"'"'s back whereas the second strip is an outer strip of the belt. The first strip and second strip are fixed to one another by at least one resistance strap mechanically fixed to a suspension point. The housing cavity comprises at least one opening so that the foam comfort pad is removable from the housing cavity

Claims

1. Roping harness comprising a belt and leg loops wherein the belt is formed by a first strip and a second strip separated so as to define a housing cavity housing at least one foam comfort pad, the first strip being an inner strip designed to come into contact with a user'"'"'s back whereas the second strip is an outer strip of the belt, the first strip and second strip being fixed to one another by at least one resistance strap mechanically secured to a suspension point, and in that the housing cavity comprises at least one opening so that the at least one foam comfort pad is removable from the housing cavity.

2. Roping harnes according to claim 1, comprising first and second foam comfort pads and wherein the housing cavity comprises opposite first and second openings arranged along a longitudinal direction of the belt so that the first and second foam comfort pads are removable from the housing cavity respectively via the opposite first and second openings.

3. Roping harness according to claim 1, wherein the first strip and/or second strip are formed by a netting.

4. Roping harness according to claim 1, comprising first and second resistance straps defining two opposite ends of the housing cavity along a direction perpendicular to a longitudinal axis of the belt, the first and second resistance straps being mechanically secured to the suspension point.

5. Roping harness according to claim 1, wherein the first strip and the second strip are formed from a material having a Young'"'"'s modulus lower than a Young'"'"'s modulus of the at least one resistance strap.

8. Method for using the roping harness according to claim 1, comprising the following steps:

extracting a foam comfort pad from the housing cavity,

fitting the roping harness on a user.

9. Method for using the roping harness according to claim 1, comprising the following steps:

inserting a foam comfort pad in the housing cavity,

fitting the roping harness on a user.

6. Roping harness comprising a belt and leg loops wherein at least one of the leg loops is formed by a first strip and a second strip separated so as to define a housing cavity housing a foam comfort pad, the first strip being an inner strip designed to come into contact with a user'"'"'s thigh whereas the second strip is an outer strip of the at least one leg loop, the first strip and second strip being fixed to one another by at least one resistance strap secured to a suspension point, and in that the housing cavity comprises at least one opening so that the foam comfort pad is removable from the housing cavity.

7. Roping harness according to claim 6, comprising first and second resistance straps defining two opposite ends of the housing cavity in a direction perpendicular to a longitudinal axis of the at least one leg loop, the first and second resistance straps being mechanically secured to the suspension point.
