Hey guys, I’m curious what suspension systems you guys use. Or if you have used more than one of you could recommend one. Thanks! I use a LWCG .5 for reference.

I’ve been looking into the Kuiu or TX5. Are their any others?

Hey thanks! I didn’t think I would want one but not super happy with the LWCG set I have. Does it help hold it against your body better?
 
How sturdy are those “clips” that help attachment it to the treestand? If the pictures they look kinda Chinsey. I’m sure their not if it’s tx5 but idk how I feel about jt
 
They seem to be holding up fine. Even under heavy load when I pick up the stand on just one shoulder strap to put it on they dont flex at all. Time will tell. The back pad is the best feature. Cant believe I went so long without it
 
I have the TX5 straps and am a little concerned about them plastic clips. I have the right load lifter strap clip keeps unclipping.
 
Exo. It will require some light modification. But I used them on my hang on last year with giant zip ties and it worked fine.

Hoping by the end of this season to have exo harness on my hybrid(check), hang on (check), and pacseat(up next). I now have an exo pack and am leaving behind all the others. Have 3 shoulder harnesses and will Rob the belt for whichever I plan to use.

Most comfortable harness out of dozens I’ve tried.
 
On the cheaper side but thought I'd throw this in here.

I almost ordered one. But another $134 after spending the $135 on the TX5 I questioned my sanity.
