Ok, this is a stupid question, but one I am not sure on. Yesterday, I received my DSS Hogarthian harness to replace the Pro-Fit harness on my single tank rig. Got it all installed and then came the waist buckle........not sure exactly of the correct way to install it. Is there a website with a diagram, or can anyone explain the correct way to thread the buckle on the waist strap??
By the way.....I like the Hog harness much better than the adjustable one. When I ordered my DSS single tank rig, I was worried about the ease of donning/doffing, and automatically thought the adjustable with quick releases would be easier. Well, I can say that the Hogarthian harness is much easier to don/dof. I think it is the way the Pro-fit has the shoulder straps crossed behind the neck that makes it a little harder to don. This can probably be changed, but I setup my Hog harness without crossing the straps behind my neck, and it slips on/off extremely easily. I am very happy with the Hog and would recommend it to anyone. Don't think that just because an adjustable harness has quick connects that it will be easier to put on/take off. In my opinion, the Hog is much much easier. I'm not ragging on the DSS Pro-Fit harness. It is a great adjustable harness with really soft webbing. I am sure it is probably one of the nicest adjustable harnesses out there. Just for me, the Hog feels better. I just thought someone going through the same decision making process as I did, might benefit from my experience.
