Putting on Petzl's new VOLT harness is as easy as putting on a jacket. You can stand straight up and down without balancing on one leg or twisting and turning to find your way. Once the harness is on, all that's left is to button and buckle it tightly so you feel it fits you.

One of the features of the VOLT Wind is that it is reinforced in the back with a back plate that makes climbing inside the tower a little more comfortable. The back plate makes the harness last a little longer because the soft parts of the harness are effectively protected.

Congratulations Robin! During the same expedition, Robin Trygg has climbed two of the world's highest mountains. Cho Oyu on 7 May and Mt Everest early in the morning on 20 May. This year's ascents of Cho Oyu and Mt Everest were done from the north face/Tibet and with oxygen. Robin's previous ascent of Mt Everest was in 2011 and from the south side, making him the youngest Swede ever to climb Mt Everest.
