Why are harnesses important for climbing?

To climb you must have the right type of equipment to keep you safe in case of incidents. The climbing harness is one of the key components of the climbing equipment. A harness is a point of contact between the person, the rope and the belayer.
However, there are different options for childrens climbing harnesses that you can consider. But before choosing any, ask yourself the questions below;

What kind of climbing will your child do?
How should the climbing harness fit?
Will you need other equipment?
You can find different harnesses for different types of climbing. Is your child doing sport or indoor climbing, big wall adventure climbing, ice climbing or just fast alpine climbing?

Climbing harnesses come in various sizes. Therefore, you should choose a harness that perfectly fits the circumference of your childs waist and legs. The good idea is to manually test a few harnesses and compare them before choosing the final harness for your child.
Harnesses are usually fastened around the waist and the top of each leg. A properly fitted harness helps climbers move freely and provides maximum safety in the event of a fall. It ensures that the climber does not get seriously injured while he is climbing. Salewa, Petzl, Black Diamond, Beal, and Climbing Technology, are popular manufacturers of children´s climbing harnesses.
