Josh,

I love what you guys are up to! This is cool! I SO WISH I had one last weekend! I'll be in touch, soon!

 

[Peter Strietmann]

Now this is cool.

Now, how about a nice strap for the side handle ? ;-)

Stu,

2 Machined mounts for the strap with stainless fasteners are part of the strap. When you see the video soon you will know why. Just imagine your fully loaded camera falling 6 feet with a normal strap do you know of any? Nils all I can say is :wink5:

Hehe I like that smiley
I'm using a standard strap for the side handle but it doesn't feel very comfortable, if you come up with a better one I'm definately interested !

Exactly what I wanted last week. Ordered yesterday.

 

[Mark Phelan]

Btw, what's the loop in the middle for?

 

[John Vonbadinski]

The loop is for whatever you decide. We have found it useful for a climbing d-ring attachment point.

That's what I thought it was for but I'm trying to figure out when would one need to hook a carabiner to a neck strap. It looks like it's not a part of the actual strap, but sewn onto the padded shoulder portion, which would make it unsuitable for hauling a camera up a cliffside by the strap. Question, does the main webbing run end to end in a continuous loop or does it stop where it is sewn at the padded portion?

 

[John Vonbadinski]

Mark,

Actually the loop is part of the strap. It is one continuous loop with all metal links. We did pull tests but do not want to officially rate it. Lets just say it can hold plenty of weight as we had it made by a rigging company that makes harnesses for the military.

 

[Mark Phelan]

Excellent! Glad to hear it. Was hoping that would be the case.

I'm guessing you're in California, mine's not arriving until early next week.

 

[John Vonbadinski]

They are coming. Glad you love it.
