Product Overview
The Helia is a showpiece of Edelrid’s harness technologies and design capabilities, providing comfort seemingly at odds with its low weight and compact pack size. A ‘butterfly’ waist-belt uses 3D Pad technology to strategically locate support only where it is required, significantly improving comfort when the harness is weighted when belaying, falling, or lowering off.
Slide Block buckles for the waist and legs provide full adjustment, five fabric-covered gear loops and four attachment points for ice-clippers maximise gear carrying potential, and use of Dyneema to protect the wear indicator at the tie-in point allows for lighter, more flexible abrasion resistance.
A slightly longer leg-loop bridge and adjusted waist-to-leg ratio makes the Helia more suited than its sibling, the Helios, to climbers – male or female – with a narrower waist.
