Ideal for skiing as on ski lifts you have full, secure control of a child helping them get on the chair lift quickly and seating them far back. Helps with the dismount too.
Great for controlling the speed and assisting with turns too once they progress to blue pistes.
The best thing about the design of the harness is the height of the double handles; most adults can have their fingers around the rear handle with little stooping or bending, continue walking with the child but the slightest stumble or trip can be caught before they hit the floor. If they do reach the floor, picking them up is so much easier as you don’t have to stoop down all the way to put hands under the arms and pick them up, you just lift the rear handle and with its height the child’s legs naturally fall back to the floor and they just drop onto their feet. Much quicker, simpler and a lot less demanding on an adults back!
