PFD chest harness best practice

Chest harnesses are a familiar part of all whitewater rescue PFDs these days, allowing you to enter the water attached to a tether, or to help with bank belays. Research by Loel Colins and Chris Onions at the University of Central Lancashire found that 25% of chest harness releases failed to release properly under low load. Building on this research, we have designed two new buoyancy aid chest harness systems. Watch this video to check your harness is set up properly. ______________________ Onions, C
