hi folks,
Am after getting a Petzl Aven, but I'm struggling a bit on the sizing. My waist fits size 1, but my thighs are more of a size 2. My question therefore is this: is there actually any difference between size 1 and 2 other than the length of tape that you have at your disposal to pull through the buckle? It seems to me from looking at pictures online that I should be able to buy a size 2 and take some length off the waist tape with a hot knife, but is there anything I haven't noticed that would prevent this resulting in a good fit? Ideally I'd go look at a harness in person to find out but I'm not aware of anywhere within easy reach of where I live that stocks them. Thanks in advance for any advice
