The gourou is a great harness, though it is a bit on the expensive side. But, compared to the standard harness, you get a lot of extras. The down-swept gear loops are especially nice, they keep gear from getting caught on edges, and most importantly, the ""double-back"" buckle on the harness keeps you from forgetting to double-back your harness, because it does it for you. I don't know how many times I've been with climbers who didn't double-back their buckles on other harnesses, which greatly reduces the strength of the harness. This feature alone could save your life someday, so it's worth the extra bucks.

Good harness, a little heavy but it's nicely padded. Only drawback is it only comes in two sizes. The small is too small, the large is too large. I went with the large since gaining weight around the middle is more common than losing it as you get older:)

Did several 1200 foot free rapels (about 15 min.) and my legs didn't go to sleep. What more can I say. It may as well be a lawn chair.

This is a great harness. very comfortable, but not too heavy. A little on the pricey side, but worth it if you spend alot of time in a harness.
