Description

The Fjellpulken tyre pulling kit consists of a standard pulk harness (this example) and a set of ropes (see AIBDC : 009131.2). Tyre pulling is common training for polar expeditions where pulks are being employed. The harness is made from a heavy duty nylon material with padding around the waist for comfort. Removeable shoulder straps are included, to ensure the belt does not fall too low on the hips and to assist when pulling up steep terrain. The webbing and UTX/Flex buckles are also believed to be nylon.
