Thinking about trying this climbing method. Can someone please explain the purpose of the thigh loop and pros/cons. Thanks!
 
Unless you want to struggle with 2 foot loops. It makes it easier.

Cons - it is far from comfortable.

Some find using a thigh loop puts you in a more vertical position when moving your foot loop aider up the tree. Others do not find value in using a thigh loop.
 
For me, the thigh loop is most valuable when climbing a larger diameter tree where a good leg lock is not possible. I dont use it every time, but I always have it with me.
