Sizing Chart for all Mens, Womens, and Childrens Harnesses
Prisma Guide
Description
The alpine version of the PRISMA, specially for alpine excursions and ski mountaineering—ultra light and with a compact pack size yet amazingly comfortable. The thin gear loops are sheathed and stay in shape without being bulky. Additional gear loops and attachment options for ice screw clips offer plenty of opportunity to organize gear. Thanks to the combination of Dyneema® on the inside and polyamide on the outside, the innovative tie-in loop is far lighter and more flexible.
- Light frame construction: minimal weight and good air permeability thanks to the continuous edge bindings made from Dyneema®, which proportionately distribute the load
- Slide Block buckle on the waist belt can be fully opened to make the harness easier to put on when wearing skis or crampons
- Adjustable leg loops with two settings

A few years back I reviewed the ultra light Loopo Lite harness from Edelrid – a specialist harness aimed at ski mountaineering and high altitude mountaineering. Great though the Loopo Lite was, its range of applications was pretty narrow, you certainly wouldn’t use it at your local crag or a multi-pitch rock route in the Lakes. The Prisma Guide has that similar high tech Dyneema® look (Dyneema® makes up the edge binding) and a very low weight. Here though the similarities end. For alpine climbers I’d say there was little reason to consider the Loopo Lite now that the Prisma Guide has arrived.

A pictoral representation of UIAA-105 and EN-12277 standards for harnesses.
The UIAA equipment standard provides a baseline for equipment performance in a test lab under controlled conditions on new equipment. Although these test conditions are relevant to the conditions encountered climbing, conditions encountered at the crags and the condition of the equipment are equally important. This recommendation from the UIAA member federation The British Mountaineering Council (BMC) provides vital equipment information that is NOT explicitly addressed in the standard, particularly failure modes of the equipment and recommendations for the use, inspection, maintenance, and retirement of equipment.
