Today I was climbing in a Glide saddle and one of the leg straps popped open.

I remember that someone else had this happen and contacted Buckingham, but I don't remember reading about the outcome. Have the buckles on the newer models been changed? Did you keep the saddle?

The adjustment straps on all of the buckles seem also to loosen easily. Anyone else find this to be a problem?

Has anyone else climbed with Saddle X? What are people's experiences with that saddle?

I've had a glide for awhile, not one of the early ones that had the the body of the snap buckel compressed to tight.

And I've had one of the leg snaps open a couple of times when the leg straps were very teight and they just didn't click in all the way. Check that.

Have not tried the X and have also, asked about others experience with it. No comments.
