nice saddle for sure i use a petzl one at work that has a fixed D ring like that and im not to fond of them for limb walks if you get one with floating D rings they will move to one side letting you walk for forward instead of backwards on limb walks but its all personal preferance i climb with a fixed D at work and a floating D when im not at work.
 
I have been looking at these too (haven't bought one yet). I like the shoulder straps. My saddle sometimes slides down when I have a bigger saw hooked on. I am hesitant though because of the attachment point. I'm not sure how compatible the single D will be with a spit tail system. Also, if you tie into the upper D it looks like it may be in the way. I still like the lightweight, user friendly, look and feel of this saddle.
 
I am a simple man with simple needs. But, My boss climbs one of those and LOVES IT. He swears by the chest ascender and says its the best thing since ice cream. The only feed back I have towards them is positive, aside from the price. If you get it, post up with your thoughts. I half way think my boss exagerates things a bit sometimes, would be good to hear from more than him on the performance of this rig.
