I just got my new belt from Tower Tech, and its wonderfull. I had been
using the ONV belt. At first look I thought jeez how in world am I
going to get into it. And its so FLIMSY. But once I got in it and used
it all weekend at least 10 hours on the tower logged. I am a very happy
camper. Its comfortable and I feel just a bit more secure knowing that
if I had a problem it would catch me and not break my back or let me
fall out of it.
It doesnt have pockets, which is something I have to order from Steve.
There is no way to make my other pockets fit since his "belt" part
doesnt allow the loop type pockets to attatch. I assume Steve's pockets
have snaps or some other way to loop them around the belt.
Check it out you can't lose, since I believe Steve will allow you to
return it.
